- Gain a fascinating insight into Northern Ireland’s most recent conflict with DC Tours.
The Troubles was an ethno-nationalist conflict in Northern Ireland that lasted about 30 years from the late 1960s to 1998. Also known internationally as the Northern Ireland conflict, it is sometimes described as an "irregular war"or "low-level war".
The conflict began in the late 1960s and is usually deemed to have ended with the Good Friday Agreement of 1998.
Although the Troubles mostly took place in Northern Ireland, at times violence spilled over into parts of the Republic of Ireland, England and mainland Europe.
Today, Northern Ireland is a fairly peaceful place and there are now educational tours which explain the conflict.
DC’s city centre tour ‘A History of Terror’ is the No.1 Belfast walking tour. The tour explains the history of the Troubles and the path to peace. It was ranked the No.4 Experience in the UK at the TripAdvisor Traveller’s Choice Awards in 2019.

I have spent many years in Belfast, on and off and it is an amazing city. The people that I have met over the years have all been warm and friendly and very genuine, in fact it was like a second home to me. I am so glad that Northern Ireland as a whole is moving forward in the right direction, god knows, the people deserve it 🙏
I love Belfast. Was there last spring and going back this fall. Wonderful city and touring in areas of conflict is essential to getting a grasp of the history of the Troubles. Thank you all who are teaching about this important period in Irish history 🇨🇮🇨🇮💚💚
British history as Northern Ireland is part of the UK
Hi, I was just around the corner at the Abacorn bomb. I was in the Bodiga bar, and my pint glass of beer went up and came down on the table and smashed. I ran out of the bar to the worst scene I have witnessed. Lots of people were wondering about their clothes smoldering. Blood every everywhere, the first on the scene were the army, they shouted out does anybody have first aid. I put my hand up and they threw down field dressings, I was an operating theatre technician in the RVH. I watched them coming out of the front window with a covered stretcher, I later discovered it was someone I knew from the RVH a trainee from the X-ray department Janet. Under the cover of the stretcher. It was her torso. I went on to be a Prosthetist, dealing with amputees in Northern Ireland and those who lost limbs at the Abacorn bomb and many other atrocities over many years.
Very accurate assessment of the Dark old day's. Great work Paul, keep them coming Lad... Impressive photography too!
Very enjoyable video. We visited Belfast last month and absolutely loved it. The museums, the restaurants and the bars were fantastic. I liked to think by visiting that I contributed to the peace there and enjoyed meeting and talking to people from both sides.
How did you contribute ???
Go raibh maith agar your more than welcome to Ireland any time hope you enjoyed it 🇮🇪

Thank you for a trip down memory lane. Thank you for using three of my photos, Land Rover Mobile Patrol along Argyle Street, Soldier on duty at the Conway Street Barricade, and Getting ready for action on a Saturday Evening, at the North Howard Street Mill.
Great video. Ex-squaddie here, served on the Creggan, Derry twice early 1970’s after BS. Visited many times since then on peace projects funded by the EU. Met ex-paramilitaries, victims, ordinary folk living through those times. The GFA was the best thing that happened after years of war. I’ll always respect a small country fighting for independence over colonial rule. Best wishes.
I’m visiting Belfast in December for 4 days for my 50th birthday is it safe to go drinking in the pubs in the shankill and falls road if you are a stranger
@tommyhassan3545 ...Sure tommy...just don't wear a celtic or rangers football top in the wrong nibourhoods and you should be grand, good luck and happy birthday.
@@tommyhassan3545Falls rd should be fine ,if your not there to mouth off ,Iam Scottish and drink on the Falls without a problem, Can't say about the Shankhill, never been or go.
@@BuddyBuddy21 thanks mate what about if I wear my cardiff city shirt
@@bernardinglis4232 cheers mate will check both areas out
Brilliant video thanks, i enjoyed it so much ❤
The GFA was very far from perfect but growing up in Belfast in the 70's and 80's it seems unbelievable how Belfast has come back to life over the past 25 years, Let's hope the dark days never return.
Many thanks for this very informative vid. Next time we are over in Belfast we will look you up 👍🏻
Wonderful video
Thank you
5:25 "officially the sculpture is called the spirit of belfast but unofficially it's known locally as the onion rings" LOL
Without going back to the start of Colonialism and Plantation of Ireland.
I firmly believe that Partitioning of Ireland was the final nail in the coffin for both Communities.
This must be reversed in the future for the Children, for to make one Community, and one People.
I’m from Glasgow and this Wednesday I’m going to Dublin till Friday then back to Belfast till Monday the 3rd July and I was thinking of doing a black taxi tour can someone tell me if it’s possible to have a republican driver or do we have to take whoever is available?
I would recommend ringing the top tours you find and ask them before booking. Enjoy your trip!
The big smoke
At least the people of the north of our country have a future today which wasn’t in the past it’s like black and white Belfast has come far as it was one of the worst areas though a hope we se the day when the peace walls are brought down then and only then will ireland have a full 32 united country under the common name of united Irishmen🇮🇪32
yet most people in Northern Ireland including myseld do not want a United Ireland we are not part of your country
Nice accent!
Seems to have missed out who carried out the two atrocities that were carried out on the Abrrcorn bar & Oxford Street, both Irish republicans.
Donzo for president
WHAT DO WE WANT?
WORDS THAT PEOPLE IN BELFAST CAN'T PRONOUNCE!
WHEN DO WE WANT THEM?
...
Time to move on
If only the DUP & co wud stop holding the country back
No that was westminister pathetic sympathy to aphreid faith they only introduced progress that never upset said ppl now full swing abortion on demand and lgbt but their own religeous faith group still insist it's dup or true Christian values not adhere to their view.. Was on bus tour never heard so much terrorist favour and Americans soaking that hope
Yeah the DUP committed all those bombings and murders referenced in the video didn't they?
They did there fair share
Not sure if making entertainment of murders is a step forward
God bless Bobby Sands, may he rest in peace
