Historic Churches and Graveyards
Belfast’s churches and graveyards tell the story of the people who built the city — merchants, ministers, industrialists, rebels, and ordinary citizens whose lives shaped Belfast through the generations. On this tour, we’ll visit some of the city’s most historic religious sites from both sides of the community exploring their architecture, traditions, and the remarkable stories of those laid to rest there.
Along the way you’ll discover how faith, community, and conflict have all played a role in Belfast’s past. From grand church buildings to peaceful graveyards tucked away from the busy streets, each stop offers a window into the lives, beliefs, and events that helped shape the city we see today.
As we stroll along the streets of Belfast we’ll explore the legacy of the Titanic, the rise of the linen industry, powerful murals, and the remarkable transformation that has made Belfast one of the most vibrant cities in Europe today.

Historic Entries Tour
Welcome to the Historic Entries of Belfast Walking Tour, where we step off the main streets and into the hidden passageways that reveal the city’s oldest stories. Known locally as “entries,” these narrow alleyways once formed the bustling heart of Belfast’s early commercial life, packed with taverns, merchants, workshops, and colourful characters.
Many of these entries have survived for centuries, preserving a unique glimpse into Belfast’s past. As we explore them together, you’ll discover how these small streets played a big role in shaping the character, culture, and spirit of the city.
Let’s step back in time and explore the hidden Belfast that most visitors walk straight past.

Who we are
Eugene is the main tour guide and he is a retired Geography teacher with thirty-nine years of experience in the classroom. Over that time, he developed a deep understanding of place, people, and landscape—something he now brings into every tour he leads. He also holds an OCN Level 3 qualification in Tour Guiding, ensuring visitors are in safe and knowledgeable hands.
Background
Eugene was born in Belfast, but during the Troubles, his family left the city in 1972. His interest in geography and history remained with him, leading to a long and rewarding teaching career where he had the privilege of working with generations of students. Along the way, he developed a love of storytelling and sharing knowledge, which eventually led him into tour guiding.
Why He Loves Being a Belfast Walking Tour Guide
What Eugene enjoys most about being a walking tour guide is the opportunity to meet people from all over the world and share the story of Belfast with them. It is a city with a rich and complex past, and he takes great pride in helping visitors understand it while also showcasing its energy and character today. Seeing people leave with a better understanding—and a genuine feel for the place—is hugely rewarding, and in many ways, it mirrors his years in teaching.
