Northern Ireland’s deep history of conflict is still an active act of reconciliation. This tour provides a unique Dual Narrative perspective on both sides, with Catholic and Protestant tour guides sharing their community histories and stories. Given the conflict’s personal nature, travelers will meet with several locals across Belfast and Derry/Londonderry, including journalists, politicians, historians, and artists—for insight into how peace was built and how so many work hard to sustain it today.
Travelers will participate in Northern Ireland’s cultural traditions and explore some of its most significant sites—like the Peace Walls, Giant’s Causeway, Titanic and the Ulster Museums—and they will also receive a rare cultural education to leave with a better understanding and compassion for both sides of the conflict.
Optional Extension: Dublin, Ireland
