My husband and I would very much like to participate in a walking tour led by former IRA prisoners described on Page 378 of RS 2016 guidebook. I've been unable to book the tour on-line, even though it appears that there is availability according to the calendar on the Coiste website. I tried to email and telephone without success. Is this tour company still in business?
Greetings from Ireland, I had some guests who used their services within the last 6 months, so they must be still operational.
If you have no success, tens of thousands of men, and also some women, are former "IRA prisoners" so there is no problem finding guides with this qualification...

Thanks so much for responding to my inquiry, Stephen. You are correct, still in business, the website just wasn't working properly at the time I checked. After some searching around on the web, I found an email address: [email protected] Received a nice reply from Fionnuala right away and booked the tour via email, so we're all set!
Hopefully this tour includes a visit to the Crumlin Road Gaol. In Belfast don't miss st George's market, the Titanic Museum, a drink at The Spainard, and picnicing at the Botanic Gardens.
