Belfast Historical and Political City Tour

Hi, I am Eddie, Belfast born and bred, spent some time growing up in South Africa, then returning to Northern Ireland, I have lived and worked in London, and Glasgow, before returning back home to Belfast.
I am well travelled, I have a genuine interest in my city and country and enjoy showing people what my city and country has to offer.
We had a dark and troubled past, and it is important that people do not forget, but most people want to make our city and country a peaceful and prosperous place for all of it's citizens.
Whether you want to sample what Belfast has to offer, or you want to explore the stunning countryside and coast, I offer bespoke tours, but also am aware of what people should see and do in the time you have here.

I am approachable and chatty, and experienced living in Belfast during our troubled past.
I have an interest in the politics and history of my city and country, I also provide political tours, providing an oral and visual account of what used to happen.
