Itinerario
Verá el arte mural del oeste de Belfast, murales de la paz y algunos jardines conmemorativos.
Su tour de murales de Belfast comienza en el área de Shankill Road de Belfast que es (protestante / británico), donde su taxista negro le explicará una historia detallada de la zona. Comenzamos en 1690, cuando Guillermo de Orange llegó a Irlanda para derrotar al rey Jacobo II en la famosa batalla de Boyne. A continuación se explicarán los recientes disturbios, que comenzaron en 1969 y terminaron cuando se firmó el acuerdo de paz en 1998. Irás a dar un paseo por la zona, donde tu taxista negro te explicará los murales leales que Belfast tiene en la zona y lo que representan. Tendrás la oportunidad de tomar tus propias fotografías de los murales de Belfast.
Los muros de paz fueron diseñados para separar a las poblaciones católica (nacionalista) y protestante (unionista) en Belfast. Se erigieron las primeras «líneas de paz», tras el estallido de violencia en 1969 en Irlanda del Norte. Se construyeron como estructuras temporales, destinadas a durar solo seis meses. Debido a su naturaleza efectiva, fueron construidos más altos, más largos y permanentes, y todavía están aquí hoy. Los muros de la paz están adornados con arte y mensajes de esperanza de los turistas.
Visitará el jardín conmemorativo Clonard Martyrs Memorial en Bombay Street en el recorrido en taxi negro. Bombay Street en Belfast es donde algunos dicen que los problemas modernos comenzaron cuando los católicos fueron quemados de sus hogares. Aquí también se formó el IRA Provisional. Cada sección de este jardín se explicará en detalle y las razones por las que existe. La siguiente parada de la gira será la oficina de prensa del Sinn Fein, que es el sitio de uno de los murales más emblemáticos de Falls Road del mural de Bobby Sands. Escuchará sobre la historia de Bobby Sands y la huelga de hambre irlandesa en la prisión de Maze en 1981.
La última parada será el Muro Internacional, donde verá una variedad de murales diferentes en Belfast. Los murales tienen un tema general de “destacar la opresión”, desde los disturbios raciales en Estados Unidos en 1969 hasta los acontecimientos actuales en Palestina.

It was the most emotional experience I have ever had Steve was so full of information plus I’m Irish English and my husband is English so had a great insight of the troubles in Belfast
We booked an 8 seater black cab at late notice and booking and communication couldn’t have been better. Our driver Martin was waiting for us at our pick up point on time and introduced himself and the nature of the tour before leaving. During the tour, Martin was amazing and provided us with a balanced viewpoint on the troubles and in depth knowledge throughout. Having been on similar trips previously, this was by far the best and this was due to Martins personality and passion in providing his factual and local knowledge of the City. I would highly recommend anyone visiting the beautiful friendly city of Belfast to take the tour and educate themselves.
Had a great tour! I went on one of these tours about 6 years ago with a different company but this was so much better and informative. Our guide was Glen and he was very knowledgeable, he explained everything about both sides in detail without bias. He answered every question we had in detail and I was very impressed.
A fabulous experience. Our guide Stevie was superb and we came away from the tour with so much more awareness of the Troubles. His knowledge and first hand experience of living through those times made the tour even more meaningful. Highly recommend this tour and guide to anyone wishing to understand more about what both communities went through, and continue to go through.
An unforgettable experience . Geordie, our guide was very knowledgeable and we learnt a great deal throughout the tour. We have a much better understanding of what has happened now. I would thoroughly recommend this tour.
Brilliant tour! The guide was extremely knowledgeable and the tour was very interesting and thought provoking. Worth every penny and I would definitely recommend.
Danny L told the tragic, but interesting and important history about the Troubles. Highly recommend the company, and ask for Danny L as a guide. Should have tipped him more!!
I had no idea about the depth and full background of The Troubles until it was explained in depth by our guide Tony. He showed us the neighborhoods directly impacted, and shared the strife felt both then and now. I'm shocked that forced segregation is being imposed in a modern city to this day. It was easy to book the tour, and Tony was excellent.
5 of us went in this black cab political tour last week, our ages range from 25 - 69. It was brilliant. I was totally unaware of the present situation in Belfast. Our taxi guide (Stevie), was very neutral in his political views (not pro either side), but having lived in Belfast all of his life, gave us a real understanding of the conflicts then and now. Although this was the political tour, we did get to see a lot of the muriel's and even wrote on one of the walls. The tour does take you into both the Protestant and Catholic sides of the city. His knowledge made the tour very interesting. Would highly recommend.
Totally amazing, our guide Bren was absolutely fantastic, could not have asked for a better tour guide. The best money we have spent and the 90mins went so fast. Thank you
