- alisonmf220 contributionsExcellent unbiased walking tourA highly engaging and informative tour led by Steve on a grey day in Belfast. I can’t recommend this walking tour highly enough if you’re interested in the politics and history of the troubles. I grew up hearing about it on the news but didn’t understand the whys and wherefores and Steve gave us such a thorough history & explanation through the years to explain what led to what I was hearing as a child & adult that I now have so much more of an understanding. He was completely unbiased and delivered only facts which was important even though he grew up in Belfast himself. We moved slowly from one location to another and with every event Steve gave us the background, the details and the fallout caused by the event. We were a group of four and each one of us was impressed and so glad that we took the time to learn about the city we were visiting. Thanks so muchWritten September 16, 2024
- caroleF7192LA0 contributionsFive Star Walking Tour With Exceptional Guide!We loved this tour of Belfast. We saw and learned so much in just a few hours. Our tour guide, Mark, was exceptional. Days later, as we traveled around Ireland, we would come across something that reminded us of a factoid that Mark had taught us. A few times we knew more about some historical event than the tour guide on other tours because we had learned it from Mark! We toured on a rainy, somewhat miserable day but we enjoyed our visit to Belfast immensely. The rain did not dampen the experience. Our pit stop at a local cafe also had some of the best hot chocolate of the trip!Written September 14, 2024

I liked the way Steve structured his talk around the lasting contributions made by exceptional individuals across the centuries - and across religious divides. It was an engaging and very enjoyable tour.Written August 21, 2024
- H3160NYmarianb0 contributionsThe best way to see and learn about Belfast’s fascinating pastThis was a wonderful way to learn about Belfast’s history. Steve, our guide, grew up in Belfast and gave us an unbiased view of events. He was a great storyteller, interweaving the stories so well. He is passionate about his city and its history, and has a great sense of humour. I was visiting from Australia and knew about the Troubles but not the compassion shown by individuals regardless of their religion and the role they played, especially the significance of members of the First Presbyterian Church. Regarding the Titanic disaster, I had no knowledge of the fire that was raging inside it. As a Line of Duty fan, I was chuffed to learn about the filming locations around the city - I’ll have to watch the series again. Steve also recommended places to eat which was very useful. The use of individual ear phones was the best way to hear the commentary, especially in the noisy streets. The three hours just flew by because Steve held my interest for the entire time. I highly recommend this tour, you will learn and see so much, especially with Steve.Written August 19, 2024

So much of Belfast is wrapped up in its history. I knew very little about The Troubles in Northern Ireland and felt that it would be important to understand this period of time while visiting the city. I signed up for a group tour but had the good luck to be the only person on the tour that day in late January. So I had a personal tour from Paul. His knowledge of The Troubles was outstanding and he took me through historic points throughout the city center. Paul was very patient with all of my questions and went out of his way to make sure that I had a feel for what the city and its people had gone through for such a long period of time. I highly recommend that any visitor to Belfast sign up with DC Tours to learn the background of the present city today.

This guided walk was actually called 'A History of Terror' and it involved walking to a number of places in Belfast city centre which all contributed to the tapestry of 'The Troubles'.
Our guide was Paul who was extremely engaging and had an encyclopaedic knowledge of events during that troubled time.
I was last in Belfast in 1986 as a member of the British Army so coming back was both strange and comforting. Strange because I can now go anywhere without looking over my shoulder and comforting because the dark days of bombings and shootings are now largely consigned to the history books. It's also good to see that the incredibly warm and friendly people of this province now have the opportunity to just get on with their lives and leave the hate behind. That's what I hope anyway.
I thought I knew quite a bit about The Troubles but Paul filled in many gaps in my knowledge. I was also struck by how intimate The Troubles were with so much going on in such a small area. It seemed every street, every corner, every cut through has a tale to tell and not always a good one. Paul brought it all to life which only someone who lived through it all probably could.
Thank you Paul for helping make my return to this great city such a memorable one.

Were fortunate to have a guided walk with Paul. He provided deep insight, clear explanations of the initial period of "the Troubles" without oversimplification or bias. I had read a little to prepare but his , sometimes very personal , experiences gave an element of clarity to a very complex environment and period. 3 hours flew by as we hung on to every word. Paul was not just knowledgeable, his personal experiences together with his work as a reconciler and mediator brought another dimension to our understanding. I read continuously on the journey home from the book list DC Tours recommended. What had previously been a confusing blend of dates, names and tragedies became much clearer. Thank you.
We have travelled widely over the past 30+ years and have a very high personal bar for our guides that is rarely met. Its difficult chosing a tour company and the individual guide is usually a matter of good fortune . I researched companies as carefully as I could on-line and DC were an excellent choice which I do not hesitate to recommend. Then we hit the jackpot with Paul. He joins a small and elite pantheon of guides who have made our lives richer and helped us understand just a little bit more.
Thanks and all the best

Our guide Paul was super friendly and helpful. He clearly had an in depth knowledge of the history around the troubles and spoke about it in a way which was non-biased and easy to understand. He also welcomed questions and answered them all well.
Would definitely recommend this tour as a way of exploring the city and learning about some of its history.

Really enjoyed this informative tour with Paul and James. They were so knowledgeable about Belfast’s troubled past, both retelling the history in a balanced and engaging way. The walk was very easy going, so suitable for all. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get an insight into this lovely city’s past divisions. The horrors are brought to life, but you are left with a feeling of hope for the future.
Thank you Paul and James, it was a morning well spent.

Honestly, this was so enjoyable. As someone who grew up in Belfast towards the end of the troubles there was so much I didn't know happened and learnt about today.
The fact that you walked to the actual places made each piece of information stand out and more memorable. I was able to go home to my parents and talk to them about places and pieces the history that they lived through in the 70's.
James, our tour guide was very well spoken, incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and really took the time to show and summarise this cities vast history remarkably well in just over 2.5 hours. Thank you!!!
Extra fun fact: The headsets provided to amplify the tour guides voice was genius! I will be booking more tours with D.C tours. Great value for money. I highly recommend to people visiting the city and people who want to know a bit more about the place they grew up in.
Thanks again!

Brilliant guide (Mark) took us on a tour of Belfast's troubled past, beginning at City Hall, into the commercial area via Royal Avenue and over to the Cathedral Quarter, then finishing on the banks of the Lagan, stopping at seemingly innocuous locations that turn out to be drenched in the history of the place, as well as some relevant examples of street art. You don't go in anywhere, there are no memorials to view (and the reason for that is explained). However this is not a criticism: apart from a few well-chosen photographic props, the tour's success rests solely on the impressive expertise and experience of the guide, who, it should be said, strives for neutrality in this account of 'The Troubles'. The story is told from the point of view of us ordinary civilians – with a bit of healthy humorous cynicism thrown in for good measure. Highly recommended.

Torrential rain on a Sunday greeted my friend and I as we went for the DC Tour of Belfast. Most would have called the whole thing off, but we decided that we should persevere despite the weather.
Our concern about the weather did not however dampen the spirit of our tour guide, James. A guy filled with great enthusiasm and who gave us the sense that we were about to embark on an adventure! Little did we know this is exactly what we would get. A portrait of the Troubles of Belfast was intermingled with history and local stories. A knowledge that would have been otherwise hidden was uncovered for us, adding to the rich tapestry of the storyline as we wandered the streets of this city.
History that stretched back to the 1600s gave us a complete overview and better understanding of things as they occurred during the modern day problems.
Each street and alley way led you to a new understanding of the reasoning behind some of the atrocities and the resulting impact for the people caught up in it.
DO NOT be put off by that thought. All of this is delivered in a very professional manner. Serious when called for but witty when the time was right.
You really must experience this tour. It is certainly one of the most informative I have ever been on and is worth every penny. Quite, quite wonderful.

Despite travelling to Belfast several times over the last few years, there are always new things to see and learn. We booked the History of Terror tour with DC Tours after finding them through google to finish our latest trip. James was our guide and he was friendly, down to earth and very knowledgeable. The knowledge of the people who lived through The Troubles is obviously second to none and it is delivered in an impartial way despite the guide's own personal beliefs and experiences. We learned and saw things that you wouldn't if you were just walking round the city yourself, and this tour focuses specifically on things that happened in the city centre during the Troubles.
We'll be returning to Belfast in the future and would definitely use DC Tours again for another one of their tours. Thanks for a very interesting morning in your wonderful city.

Paul was a brilliant guide, and after introducing himself to everyone and getting to know them, the two-and-a-half tour got under way.
It was at a very gentle pace which gave plenty of opportunities to take photos along the way.
Everyone was given sanitised headsets to help ensure that social distancing could be maintained.
Having grown up in Belfast, Paul was obviously at ease in not only giving a detailed history of Belfast, but related the stories of the troubles in a very unbiased, neutral way.
Lots was learnt about buildings and artwork & murals seen on the tour, and there were also good references to music history, too.
This was the perfect thing to do on my first full day in Belfast.

Hi, we will be in Belfast on Tuesday April, 5th. Can we pay for the tour on the day of the tour, either with the tour guide or at a Irish tour ticket office?
Written March 28, 2022
Hi there. Yes you can pay cash on the day of the tour. However you need to ring in advance t give details of the number in your party and what date you wish to take the tour. You can then arrange to meet the Tour guide in Belfast and pay him/her just before the tour begins. Hope that helps.

Hi all, I plan to visit Belfast in July and I want to join a historical tour to learn more about the Troubles. I read some really good reviews about Dead Centre but for some reason I can't access their website to read about the details of the tour. I presume Dead Centre is still in business as there are reviews as recent as a few days ago? If so, can the staff check if the website is functional? Many thanks.
Written June 19, 2019
Hi jmtyu, Thanks for getting in touch, we are indeed still in business, and I've just checked our website and it's up and working. If you try searching for 'DC Tours Belfast' that should normally work. I don't think we are allowed to give direct links on TripAdvisor booking pages unfortunately.

I was wondering how long the tour lasts and how many miles you walk on the tour. Thank you!
Written April 27, 2019
Hi, the tour lasts around 2 hours but you actually don’t walk that far. It’s a slow amble, with lots of stops at important sites (with places to sit). Have a look at the ‘What to expect’ section on here. It’s not a taxing walk at all. In our experience the two hours just flew!

Is it ok to bring a small piece of luggage along?
