This 90-minute tour in Belfast takes place in a traditional black taxi and offers a local perspective on the city's divided neighborhoods. The tour begins on Falls Road with a 40-minute guided visit to several murals, including the Bobby Sands Mural, the International Wall, the Hunger Strike Mural, and the Bombay Street Memorial. An accredited local guide explains the political conflict from 1969 to the present day during this part of the tour. Afterward, the taxi travels along the Peace Wall for about 10 minutes. This wall separates Protestant and Catholic neighborhoods, and guests may choose to add their name to the wall if they wish. The final 40 minutes are spent on Shankill Road, where the guide shows political and cultural murals related to Loyalism and Unionism and visits a memorial garden dedicated to those affected by the conflict. Time spent at each stop may vary depending on guest interaction. The tour includes free pick-up and drop-off within the city area or at hotels and attractions. The experience is designed to show Belfast like a local through the eyes of an accredited local guide.
