I thoroughly enjoyed walking with (forgive me if I misspell) McRay and learning about his experience during The Troubles and learning more about events that unfolded. Highly recommend.

This tour is excellent! A recent history story that can can be hard to imagine until you listen to the accounts from the people who have lived it and walk the streets where it happened. Would definitely go again.

My son and I took a Bogside Tour this week. Our guide, John, was excellent, very knowledgeable and presented the tour with just the right balance of seriousness and light heartedness. The tragic story was told in a factual and unbiased manor. Not to be missed.

We had a wonderful tour from Peter who delivered the perfect blend of history, humour and personal stories. We learned so much, and felt like we got a real insight into life and events in Bogside.

We would absolutely recommend this tour. What can we say, no bad comments - you can’t improve on perfection!

We had a fantastic tour round Derry & Free Derry corner led by Peter. We were a small group of four of us. The tour was really informative and included moving personal anecdotes. Peter blended the the serious, historical and tragic with at times amusing stories. We particularly enjoyed being introduced to Tom one of the Bogside artists who was refurbishing one of his murals whilst we were touring.
Peter is the perfect tour guide for the Bogside area.

Jimmy Toye being a born and bred man of the Bogside added great depth and meaning to our experience. The explanations of the history of the ‘Troubles’ the focus on civil rights and the human experiences provided a very rounded background story. It was well paced and timed. Thank You Jimmy! I hope you enjoyed the rest of your birthday day.
