This was an interesting tour of a place I’ve wanted to visit for a long time. As a student in the area I have walked past the front gates 100s of times and always wondered what was contained within. It was an interesting tour with much local information and history and the guide was informative and able to answer our questions without any difficulty.

I've lived in Belfast for 7 years and have always walked past this site and been curious to see inside and learn more about it. I finally had the pleasure of doing a tour here last Saturday. Jordan was an excellent tour guide - really knowledgeable and passionate, and was easily able to answer all our questions. The tour went at a good pace and covered so many interesting stories about symbolism, the famine, grave robbers and more. A special experience I would recommend to anyone.

We spent a lovely sunny Saturday being guided around the graveyard by our friendly and knowledgeable guide, Judith.
There are so many stories, locked behind the gates of the graveyard and each story was a unique little glimpse in to the fascinating history of Belfast.
I would highly recommend taking a few hours out of your Saturday to do this tour. It is genuinely engrossing and the tour guide was so accommodating with any questions the group had. There is a wealth of history, mythology behind the gates.

A great wee tour through Belfast’s first cemetery with cheerful guide Judith.
Rain threatened but we were lucky to get glorious autumnal sunshine.
A fascinating place with perhaps more unknown than known of those who rest there. An ecumenical graveyard before its time with folks of all social backgrounds interred within its walls. A hidden gem.
