Hello I'm Emma a qualified professional Tour Guide and one of the few female Tour Guides in Belfast. I am a working mother and I gained a First Class Honors Degree in Humanities which led to a career change and I have a particular interest in uncovering some of the history relating to the women of Belfast. I was born and raised in Belfast, a city I'm very proud of and which has changed immensely over the last fifty plus years! Some things never change and that is the warmth and humour which we share regardless. I have always been interested in the history of Belfast so being a Tour Guide is the perfect job for me as I can offer a wide variety of walking tours and experiences to suit your needs. Belfast has a complex history which I'm happy to explain in an interesting and informative way. I would love to share my passion and personal experiences of the city with you. Visitors to Belfast are always surprised at our warmth and humour and I am happy to share some of our famous hospitality with you. Tours can always be customised according to your own specification so if you see something you like get in touch!

Overview of your Belfast tour

Belfast is now a very thriving city but it has a complex history, particularly tied to the period known as the Troubles. As a post conflict society, it has become a symbol of resilience and renewal and provides a welcoming and engaging experience for visitors from all over the world. You can explore Belfast on a private walking tour with me, a qualified Tour Guide who was born in 1972 a year which is widely regarded as the worst of the Troubles. As one of the few female Tour Guides in the city I can explain to you from a female perspective what it was like to grow up in Belfast during a time of conflict and show you some of the significant locations around the city centre from that time. We will also learn about the reconciliation here which only became possible after the Good Friday Agreement in 1998. I can of course customise this tour so if there's something specific you would like to see or hear about please let me know
