The Tours began in 2003 as a social economy project providing employment opportunities for the growing political ex-prisoner community. Over the years, thousands of people of all ages, including individuals and groups from around the world, have taken these unique tours.
And if you're a larger groups and have sufficient time, Coiste can pre-arrange Political Education Itineraries, South Armagh, Derry Political and Maze Prison Tours. Tours of the nearby Shankill area with ex-prisoners from a unionist background can also be organised... never underestimate the fact that this particular political exchange would have been unheard of until recently.
If sufficient notice is given, and the visiting group is large enough, Republican West Belfast tours can also be arranged in Irish, Basque, Spanish and French.
