Hi, I am Joe M, A 60yr old Belfast Native, spending most of my life living in a conflict torn society. The youngest of 12 children, an impassioned storyteller and accomplished guide, With an unwavering commitment to sharing the captivating stories of Belfast and its tumultuous history. Through My immersive and informative tours, I will not only shed light on the city's past but also foster a greater understanding of its people and their struggles. My approach to guiding is rooted in empathy, impartiality, and sensitivity. I believe in creating an inclusive space where visitors from all walks of life can come together to learn, understand, and reflect on Belfast's history without bias or preconceived notions. My tours aim to be respectful to all communities involved, fostering an atmosphere of open dialogue and mutual respect. Over the years, Belfast Mural Tours have become an essential part of the city's cultural fabric, drawing visitors from across the globe. My ability to convey historical events with emotion and authenticity leaves an indelible impression on those who join My tours. Many participants have praised the experience for its thought-provoking nature and the way it deepened their understanding of the complexities surrounding Belfast's past and present. As a responsible and engaged citizen, I am dedicated to giving back to the community that has supported My endeavors. By actively collaborating with local artists, historians, and community leaders I aim to ensure that the narratives presented during the tours are accurate, respectful, and inclusive. My Belfast 'TROUBLES TOUR' is not just a sightseeing experience; it's an opportunity to walk through history, gain a deeper appreciation for Belfast's resilience, and leave with a renewed sense of hope for a more harmonious future.

We did the Coastal Causeway and Belfast Murals tour with Joe, and he was absolutely fantastic! He kept our whole family entertained with his great sense of humor, but what really stood out was his passion for the history of Northern Ireland. He shared powerful, thoughtful information in a way that was engaging and meaningful. The mix of laughter and learning made this one of the highlights of our trip. Couldn’t recommend Joe enough—he truly made the day unforgettable!

Joe M. was truly amazing, to start our tour on Saturday he came to Belfast in a monsoon of a rainstorm. It was not looking good for our tour but Joe decided to come back the next day (on his day off!!) to take us on the tour. We also had another tour on Sunday which I cancelled. Then Joe wanted after taking us on the tour that was cancelled Saturday wanted to make sure we had a complete experience, so he also took us on the tour of Belfast going to the peace walls, the IRA memorial, all the political murals around the city that I had cancelled for Sunday! TRULY UNBELIEABLE!! He's a great tour guide and even better person. Thanks for sending us home Joe with memories that will last a lifetime!! Bob & Maryanne
