We booked the walking tour with Michael through Viator. Due to unforeseen circumstances we were unable to participate in the tour. Michael arranged a timely refund and was incredibly helpful. Outstanding customer service!
Michael is very knowledgeable and thoughtful. Easy walking if anyone is concerned. Great history tour!
Very informative tour of Derry where we learned about the Irish conflict and the Peace Process. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone that is interested in gaining a deeper perspective of the conflict. Mikey was a great tour guide and has an insiders perspective having grown up on the neighborhood.
Privileged to do this fascinating tour with Micky who lived through so much Derry history. He related his experience (at times first hand) in an interesting and engaging manner and supported his presentation with great pics and realistic props. Thoroughly recommend this tour.
A powerful and moving tour of the site of Bloody Sunday, the memorial and murals. Noel, our guide, was excellent.
Very concise and factual information provided but maybe a little too politically motivated .good explanation of all monuments seen
This was an exceptional tour! I’ve read a good bit about the history we covered but Michael’s clear and knowledgeable explanations, as well his personal experiences, made this complex subject easier to understand and all the more compelling. Highly recommend!
The tour covers the places related to the Northern Ireland conflict in Derry, such as Bloody Sunday, passing by the murals. The guide, Bruna, explained the history and events that occurred in detail from her point of view.
Very insightful, and absolutely recommendable. Thank you Michael
Excellent! Very well presented - our guide Michael shared stories, personal memories and insights that helped deepen our understanding of this complicated history. Very moving.
