Walking or coach tours tailored to your interests—ancestry, politics, food, folklore & more. Ulster History Walks and Talks was born out of my passion for guiding visitors around our emerald isle and delivering historical talks to local community and heritage groups. I’m a qualified tour guide, holding an OCN NI Level 3 Certificate in Tour Guiding. With extensive experience across Northern Ireland and Ireland, I bring history, culture, and folklore to life through engaging storytelling. Tour guiding is my passion, and I love sharing the stories that make Belfast unique and Derry/Londonderry truly “Legenderry.” From Belfast’s maritime and industrial heritage to the historic Derry’s Walls and the rich social history that has shaped our province, I cover it all. If you have ancestral ties to Belfast’s shipbuilding or linen industries, or to Derry/Londonderry’s renowned shirt-making trade, I can help guide you in the footsteps of your ancestors. Whether you're looking for a tour of Belfast, Londonderry, or anywhere in Northern Ireland — or a bespoke experience focused on history, architecture, politics, literature, or local gastronomy — I can tailor a tour to suit your interests. I’ve guided international tourists, cruise passengers, historical societies, and heritage groups, ensuring each visitor leaves with a deeper appreciation of this remarkable place. I take you beyond the usual tourist trails to explore hidden gems, legendary sites, and the best local spots to eat and drink. If you have Ulster-Scots ancestry, I can also help uncover your family connections. If you’re part of a local community or historical group and would like me to deliver a talk, please get in touch. Join me for a fun, fact-filled journey!
