Description

Do you dare to explore Belfast’s darkest side?

This tour is recommended for ages 14 and up due to the nature of its content.

Imagine a city whose streets hide secrets of public executions, brutal murders, silenced rebellions, and shocking traditions. This is no ordinary tour: it’s an immersive experience that transports you through centuries of dark history, narrated with passion, irony, and a touch of mystery.

We’ll begin in the heart of the city, where the screams of the hanged still echo. We’ll visit the sites of the most infamous executions, learn about the sinister Shankill Butchers, the theft of corpses from ancient churches, the Georgian red-light district, and much more.

We’ll also explore legendary taverns, deadly epidemics, and the harsh reality of Victorian prisons.

Throughout the tour, you’ll explore:
Rosemary Street: the Presbyterian church and religious repression.
White’s Tavern
The Four Corners
