On this Experience we will take in some great live Music venues as we discover Street Art, (some by International Artists) and go on a (wee dander) stroll through the streets of Belfast. We'll passby some of the most popular Historic and more Modern pubs in the Cathedral Area, and the Belfast Entries areas of the city center, and discover other off the beaten track, restaurants and pubs and stop in at least one or two so you can take in the live music, and sample the local atmosphere within, while taking in a beverage if you choose to do so. This is not a pub crawl or a barhop.
And at the same time orientate you around the city centre. Pointing out other things to see and do. While giving you the rich Music and Street Art History of Belfast, and Northern Ireland.

Went Arti with Marti
Had so much fun on this tour!
Marti seems to be a local legend and knows everyone. We even bumped into a lead singer of a famous rock band who stopped for a little chat with him.
His local music knowledge is great, he took us to see some amazing musicians.
He also has a wealth of knowledge about the beautiful street art and the history of Belfast. Great fun, great company.

Marty Brings Belfast to Life
Marty was a fantastic guide.. fun, knowledgeable, and delightfully quirky in the best way! He shared so much interesting information, but what really stood out was how he connected Belfast's history with its future. His passion for the city is contagious, and by the end of the tour we had a much deeper appreciation for both Belfast's past and where it's headed.
We loved the variety of topics, from Belfast's fascinating history and meaningful street art to its vibrant music scene and venues. Marty also shared some excellent recommendations that have already made the rest of our stay even better.
I'm so glad we booked this tour for our first night in Belfast. It was the perfect introduction to the city, and we learned so much while having a great time!

Thank You for taking the time to leave me your 5 star review. 🌟 I do my best to help my guests discover a side of Belfast you'll all not find in your guide books. And being Eclectic we not only discover off the beaten track locations for live local Music and at the same time find little bits of hidden street art. And of course help you find other great things to see and do, that includes places to dine. I thank you also for choosing me to be your guide on your first day in Belfast

Fabulous Belfast music and murals with Marti
What a way to start our Belfast experience.
The ‘Marti Way’ gave us a wonderful insight into the vast culture and varied music of the city . Every turn unearthed a new element of history and vibes . Marti was full of knowledge and we had a brilliant time. Highly recommend this tour.

Do it the Marti way!!
My partner and I joined Marti for his street art and music tour and had the most wonderful experience. Marti was full of historical and cultural knowledge and also highly entertaining. He took us to see lots of fantastic street art and also took us into some pubs to watch some live music, learning lots of interesting facts and anecdotes a long the way. He also asked us about ourselves and tailored the tour to stop off at places that would be of interest to us. Marti was the most fabulous tour guide/companion and even gave us lots of information, tips and tricks for the rest of our trip. Couldn’t recommend one of his tours more, if you are stopping in Belfast you’ve got to do it the Marti way!!

Fabulous walking tour with a very informative guide.
Marti was an excellent guide with a vast knowledge of the music and art culture of Belfast. I was born and bred in Belfast and knew very little of the information that Marti shared with us.
He was friendly gracious and passionate about the music and art.
I would highly recommend him if you are thinking of taking a tour of Belfast whether you are a visitor or a native like me.
Operator response
Thank You, I love it when a local joins me on my adventures around the city center. So you can discover the sights and sounds, and as I go give you wee snipets of the Belfast amazing history. And hope you'll choose one of my other experiences so you all can see and learn more about Our City❣️
