Our Story

Coiste Irish Political tours offers a unique experience of Belfast to its visitors. We organise guided tours of the Falls Road murals as well as other key places of the recent history of Belfast and Ireland: Ballymurphy, the Milltown Cemetery and the City cemetery. Former activists and political ex-prisoners from within the Republican community host our 3 hour walking tours and provide the visitor with an in depth insight into the most recent phase of the Anglo/Irish conflict. The guides weave their own personal stories into the tour as they visit many different sites that explain both the local and wider history of Ireland. For these guides this project is a living history. They are a primary source and an invaluable link into the most recent phase of struggle. Our tours simply aim at sharing with visitors the particular perspective of members of the republican community. We also organise package tours for schools, university or groups coming to Belfast with a wider range of tours and services. Get in touch to know more!
