You won’t be disappointed

Published on Apr, 2025

If you are doing a tour in Belfast make sure you do the Marti way walking tour!! It was so informative and fun, we are still giggling thinking about all the stories Marti told us. He had some good recommendations on where to go and what to do in the city. It was well worth it. You won’t be disappointed with this tour!

A must do Marti way adventure highly recommended!

Published on Mar, 2025

Brilliant informative and enjoyable walk around beautiful Belfast city. Marti is so knowledgeable and passionate, bringing us on a 'Back to the Future' adventure, regaling in the city's challenging history and enterprising diverse community to nurture the city to its current splendour. A unique and interesting jam packed trail, visiting the main attractions the city has to offer while also exploring lesser known spots. Marti engages with the locals so you get a real feel for their friendly hospitality. Lots of tips for where to eat / drink / shop or whatever your interests may be, Marti has an abundance of suggestions for things to do! The City's motto 'Pro tanto quid retribuamus' was reiterated throughout our time with Marti, a reminder of the warm welcoming people of the city and of course our great guide! I'd highly recommend this tour.

A highly informative tour on our first visit to Belfast

Published on Mar, 2025

Marti welcomed us and we went on a 'Back to the Future' tour with a detailed insight to Belfast and its unique history  including 'The Troubles'.  We visited the main historical sights and discovered how Belfast's industry transformed over the years.  As we moved around the city with Marti, he greeted quite a few local people which gave us the idea of a small friendly city, but at the same time very lively.  We entered beautiful buildings, catching a glimpse of Belfast's City Hall and the Merchant Bank.  His tour was very informative and his love of the city showed through. He also gave us tips on where to eat, good pubs to visit and where we could see some Irish dancing! We highly recommend this tour and on our next trip back to Belfast we will definitely be back for another one of Marti's tours!

This gentleman knows Belfast

Published on Feb, 2025

I spent the day with Marti doing a double day of tours. I’ll start by saying I’ve done many tours in many cities in many parts of the world, and can definitively say that Marti is the most knowledgeable tour guide of his city that I have ever had. Hands down. I was amazed that after 7 hours he still had plenty of new knowledge and there was zero overlap between tours (& he offers additional tours to those I took). As a professor and closet historian I am always looking for deeper knowledge and Marti did not disappoint. How a person remembers that many events, locations, names and dates is beyond me. He clearly has a passion for his subject and has spent a lifetime preparing to give you your next tour. I’m no stranger to Belfast having hosted many times and taken a variety of tours. Marti’s tour tied so many ends together and provided such a rich context and new perspectives to help provide a deeper meaning. He’s aware of the past, the present and the new directions of Belfast. At the end of it all, you appreciate that this tour is a reflection of Marti himself and his eclectic life adventures and experiences with so many facets of Belfast. Two thumbs up!
