5.00Marty was such a brilliant guide for our Belfast peace walking tour. He started with a thorough background of history building to the more recent ‘Troubles’ before guiding us through Belfast to see beautiful & interesting street art, key landmarks and sights. Then into west Belfast for a up close and personal look at the still existing divides between communities and attempts to bring peace and unity. He gave us great insight & detail, answering our questions as well as pointing us to more places to visit, things to watch and read to learn more. I’d more than recommend this tour to learn more, and see the hope being embraced in this fascinating city! Thanks Marty 😊

4.00Marti was very informative and very knowledgeable about the history of the troubles from both communities. And the artworks inspiring them and how they have evolved in the year since the end of the troubles. He also adds his own insights and natural wit into the narrative. His tour was well worth the fee.
Essential Belfast Insight: Marti's Balanced View on Conflict and Hope

5.00Marti started the tour with a potted history of Ireland, stretching back many centuries, setting the stage for a deeper understanding of the region's complex past. What set this tour apart was Marti's emphasis on the ongoing efforts to secure peace in Northern Ireland. He eloquently explained how communities continue to work tirelessly to maintain the “fragile” peace, highlighting the positive initiatives happening in Belfast that foster reconciliation. Marti's extensive experience and his dedication to building rapport with various communities, many still grappling with the scars of conflict, allowed him to provide a fair, balanced, and unbiased perspective on a city still healing from its traumatic history. The walking portion of the tour took us through iconic areas like the Shankill and Falls Roads, and Marti is apparently the only guide who leads tours on foot through some of these sensitive spots, which added an intimate and authentic feel. He didn’t shy away from discussing Belfast’s current challenges, including issues with drugs and racism, but always framed them within a context of progress and hope. Throughout, Marti maintained a politically neutral stance, stressing the importance of peace and reconciliation. His memorable phrase, “Two eyes on the past is to be blind,” perfectly encapsulated the tour’s message: acknowledge history, but look forward to build a better future. If you’re visiting Belfast and want an honest, engaging, and eye-opening experience, book with Marti.

5.00An informative, well researched and personal tour in which Marti showed just how the communities still have to keep working to secure the peace in Northern Ireland. Fascinating to see how the murals were being repurposed to remember the past whilst not letting the trauma damage another generation Highly recommend!

5.00Marti knows much and has done a lot to build rapport with the various communities who still live in conflict. This allows him to bring a fair and balanced perspective on a city that is still living with the trauma of conflict. He took us through parts of the city that I would not be comfortable going through on my own. Highly informative and emotional tour.
