Arthur's walking tour was all of the above. it's great to be told about the history, how life was during The Troubles, and other stories of the city of Belfast from a local. particularly one as knowledgeable and humourous as Arthur. you'll definitely learn more about Belfast than just the usual tourist info that the usual run-of-the-mill tours will tell...

Raconteur, musician, postman, songwriter and Undertones devotee, Arthur Magee (Mr Experience Belfast) does a mean walking tour! We first clapped eyes on him leading a group through one of the warren of back lanes near the Cathedral Quarter in the heart of Belfast city. To be honest we were initially eavesdropping as he started to regale his group with one... More

I wanted to book a tour with Arthur after reading the reviews on TripAdvisor and was also intrigued to see the "alternative" Belfast. I contacted Arthur before arriving in Belfast and my advice to other travellers would be to do the same. Unfortunately Arthur wasn't available at the time I wanted the tour but enlisted his friend Raymond to do... More

Arthur was a great guide who really knows his stuff. He even met up with me again later in the day and took me to a local football match, then to an open mic at one of the local bars....definitely the highlight of my time in Belfast. More

I really enjoyed the walking tour, particularly as Arthur was able to give a human view of Belfast - not just giving the run down of the history and pointing out the buildings, but showing us the artistic heart of Belfast, the newly built area around the river, explaining the hopes for Belfast and the dreams of the children.

Arthur gives you an interesting tour in many ways. If you want a different, funny and educational tour that´s a great deal. I really enjoyed the experience. More

From the moment Arthur met us at City Hall until the end of the tour around 2 hours later, he entertained us with facts and tales of Belfast past and present. If you want a guided tour that shows you a lot of hidden Belfast and not just the areas of the Troubles this is the tour for you. Highly... More

Entertaining and informative view of Belfast's past and an optimistic view of the future of a city still showing its divisions and trying hard to overcome the recent history of hatred and fear. And there's quite a bit of insider knowledge about the music scene too. More

The tour focuses on the remnants and progress of Belfast after the troubles, how to get together and overcome old hatred. In that it really succeeds, and in addition it gives some insight on Belfast's key moments in history and special and unique places in the city centre. More
