It’s a great introduction to the Troubles in real life. The weather made it even better, although knowledgeable, friendly Jack can’t take any credit for that!
Jack was an outstanding guide. He’s very knowledgeable of the troubles and provided deeper insight when we had questions. He provides a very balanced view of the troubles, providing very factual information. Was willing to stop whenever we liked and allowed time for photos, more exploration of memorials, etc. I highly recommend.
