Peter was a very good tour guide and Shamac an excellent driver who both made our experience very enjoyable. We were kept well informed by Peter and his anecdotes kept us amused. The places we were taken were very memorable and the videos on the bus were great as this enhanced our memories of the locations in relation to the GoT series. It also was interesting to know from an Extra's point of view about the filming of the series. I would highly recommend this tour.

Our trip was greatly enhanced by having Aiden Walker as our Belfast guide. He provided us with a details and other information which he researched in advance of our trip. HIs thoughtful and thorough manner was well paced informative but not overwhelming. I would highly recommend Aiden Walker to anyone visiting Belfast.

We visited Belfast with our extended family of 11 for four days in August. Our tour guide, Aiden Walker, did an outstanding job researching our family history and introducing us to our past. Aiden was with us for three days as our guide, and Keith was our driver of the 16 passenger mini bus.
Aiden met us at the hotel each day, explained the day ahead, then made sure all of our requests were met throughout the day. He was a wealth of information, answering all of our questions.
We spent a day and 1/2 in Belfast, then ventured up the coast one day to Bushmills and the Giants Causeway. At the end of each day Aiden helped us with dinner plans and pub locations.... all of which were perfect recommendations since he really made an effort to get to know our likes and dislikes.
Don’t tour Northern Ireland without booking Aiden as your guide!!

My sister and I had a walking tour with Aidan and it was just like going on an evening stroll with an informed friend. Prior to this we had little knowledge of Belfast - the fact it's built on a river and winky clock tower, the extent of the devastation caused by the Blitz, and the entries were all things we'd never heard about. Aidan was able to give us a general sense of how the town developed into a city and a commercial and industrial hub but he was also great at slipping in the minor gossipy stuff that also gives colour to a place, e.g. where Sting used to work when he had a Northern Irish girlfriend! We really enjoyed our time with Aidan and highly recommend him as a guide. Shame it was so cold but that's what the warm pubs are for afterwards.

I had the pleasure of joining Aidan’s group on Culture Night in Belfast. I live in the city but really enjoyed the opportunity to be a tourist for an evening and learnt so much. Aidan has a wealth of knowledge about the political and historical backdrop of Belfast. If your looking for a personalised, informative tour with a bit of Belfast ‘craic’ thrown in ... go no further! I’m looking forward to booking another tour soon. Thanks again, Aidan!

Earlier this week we went on a three-hour walking tour of central Belfast with Aidan. It was a wonderful experience.
In addition to being extremely knowledgeable about Belfast past and present, Aidan brings to the tour his own first-hand, personal experience. He lived through the entire period of the Troubles, as a child early on and later as an adult, and has a very unusual and fascinating family background. Because of these factors, and because he presents the story in a non-partisan way, his tour went much deeper and well beyond what we expected.
If you want to learn the history of Belfast, and also get a real feel for what it was like to grow up there during that very difficult time in they city's history, take Aidan's tour. You'll be glad you did!

Enjoyed over 2 hours walking last night with our tour guide Aidan round the cobbled streets and entries of central Belfast. It was all at a leisurely pace and the fact that it was a bright warm summery evening lent to the atmosphere as people gathered outside the bars to enjoy their Friday night. Aidan is very knowledgeable with a good sense of humour and managed to make the history of the city come to life. He also showed us a lot of the street art in places we had never been and explained the stories behind them. I would recommend going on one of his tours.

Spent a couple of hours with Aidan this evening wandering around the Cathedral Quarter. He is a very knowledgeable host and answered all questions which we threw at him. A mixture of history, art, music and folklore so something for everybody. The tour was delivered at a level to suit us all. Give yourself a treat on a Friday evening and join one of Aidan's tours.

We were 47 people of a certain age on a 4 day stay at The Crown Plaza Hotel in Belfast. The hotel was excellent and our daily trips by coach were led by Aidan Walker, an excellent guide with a vast knowledge of the area, historically and more recent, delivered with humour and insight. He was aided and abetted by Ian our coach driver, from McCombs Coaches, who went out of his way to make sure our less mobile passengers were looked after. They also managed to squeeze in some unscheduled stops, ie Queen's Unversity grounds and the Botanical Gardens and a drive down the Falls Road and Shankill Road to see the Peace Wall. Thank you both.
