Ici Belfast Walking Tours. Notre histoire, notre culture.
Description
Je suis né et j'ai grandi ici à Belfast et j'ai tellement de liens à travers mon expérience et ma famille. J'ai une connaissance approfondie de l'histoire de la ville et ce qui rend les gens de Belfast si accueillants... moi y compris! J'aime apprendre des gens et considérer que c'est un véritable honneur si vous vivez mes visites.

Well done Stevie on a fantastic tour, your knowledge base is second to none and plenty of funny quips thrown in for god measure, learnt more than I thought I would about Belfast so good on ya, keep up the great work and look forward to singing again soon.
I lived in Belfast from 1980 until 1990 and was, what I thought, fairly familiar with it because I walked everywhere. Stevie chose a distinct landmark to begin the tour with, a place I was familiar with, and had told me more within the first 5 minutes of the tour than I had learned in my 10 years living near that spot. The rest of the tour followed a similar pattern, excellent nuggets of information delivered clearly and with context. I can wholeheartedly recommend Stevie as a most knowledgeable and even handed guide. Many thanks, Stevie!
Coming from England and living in NI for the last 5 years, it’s great to understand the deeper history of Belfast and what has made it the place it is today. Great storytelling and knowledge from the guide Stevie. Thanks!
The tour was ok, badly ran over time wise and we arrived at the Titanic memorial at 8.55 when the grounds of City Hall were about to be closed. Guide should have checked plans of those attending as 4 had to leave for a dinner reservation. Tour said 90 mins but it was 150 mins . Some of the historical facts where actually wrong an example being Internment.
Thanks for your feedback Susan. You were all very good company and I always value input and reviews!The tour is however advertised as being approximately 2 to 2.5 hours not 90 minutes. We did finish in 2 and a half hours .With the poor weather last night it did take a bit longer to get around. Some areas of the citys history are rather complex. I did ask the groups if there were any plans after the tour so I could factor this in but I was not advised of any. I did contact the group of 4 you referred to in order to explain.They missed about 15 minutes of the tour. They responded on the platform they booked on and said they understood and they really enjoyed the tour and thanked me. I was unaware I had made mistakes discussing internment but this is an aspect of our history that was only briefly discussed. I was looking to highlight 1972 as a crucial year and I appreciate that the internment operation started in August 1971. I do try to condense that period of the early troubles as simply as I can for tourists. I do finish at city hall at around 845 but last night was slower than usual so time did become rather tight. However I was able to cover the detail I wanted to at the memorial garden. Thanks for your booking which is always appreciated! I always enjoy having locals on the tour as it's often the case that I hear local stories or information as I did last night too! Thanks again. Steve
Knowledgeable guide; easy walk on flat surfaces. Learned about the growth of the city over two centuries… with particular emphasis on the time of the troubles. Many historical landmarks indicated along the way.
Many thanks to tour guide Stephen, who told the intriguing story of Belfast and showed so many fascinating parts of the city. I felt genuinely welcome and thoroughly enjoyed both the historical and personal stories he shared about Belfast.
Stephen gave our group a terrific tour, at times light-hearted and at other times relaying the city’s troubled times. He shared his expansive knowledge of the area’s history and included stories of growing up in Belfast. Stephen adjusted his pace to include all 10 in our group and effortlessly fielded our questions about the city. Tours don’t get any better than when led by someone with a connection to the area and Stephen gives the best!
Stephen is a very knowledgeable and funny local guide who gave us a great walking tour. We appreciated his depth and light heartedness. He mixed history with personal stories and provides great historical and architectural references. He was open to questions and conversation as he navigated the group thorough the history filled city center. Would recommend if you're new to Belfast. Great way to get situated when you arrive.
I went on a tour with a group of friends in May 2026. Stevie was very informative, entertaining and charismatic. I would highly recommend him for something a little bit different.
Fab tour by the very knowledgeable and friendly Stevie, even in the pouring rain! Great to find out a lot more about city! Would recommend.
