Excursion Belfast city & titanic tour at Liverpool

Explore the renowned landmarks of Belfast and memorials honouring the R.M.S. Titanic during this scenic, half-day sightseeing excursion.

Belfast City Tour

Depart the pier for the scenic, approximately 30-minute drive to Belfast City. Upon arrival, take a panoramic drive through the city. Along the way, pass by renowned landmarks that include the Grand Opera House, Albert Clock, Queen's University, Botanic Gardens, and the giant cranes of the Harland and Wolff Shipyard, which dominate the Belfast skyline. Continue past Belfast City Hall, an impressive building that features an approximately 300-foot-long (about 90-metre-long) façade of Portland stone and dominates Donegal Square. A stop is made here to photograph what is perhaps the most noteworthy of the statues on the grounds; Brock's marble figure of Thane on a granite pedestal commemorating the 1912 sinking of the R.M.S. Titanic, the ill-fated, Belfast-built liner.

Titanic Belfast

Next, proceed for a visit to Titanic Belfast. Opened in April 2012, this signature building tells the story of the Titanic. It features nine galleries containing a variety of interpretative materials and media, including CGI, film, video, audio, archival materials, and scale models. Your unforgettable adventure begins the moment you walk through the door and into the building's giant atrium, which is surrounded by four high-impact, 'hull'-shaped sections that house the experience. As you wander up through Titanic Belfast, see the re-construction of the shipyards and Titanic under construction, and hear stories of the passengers, crew and heroes of the day. At the conclusion of your visit, re-board the coach for the approximately 30-minute drive back to the pier.

Please note: This tour involves a moderate amount of walking, at times over uneven surfaces, with a few steps to negotiate to get on/off the coach and at Titanic Belfast. Walking at Titanic Belfast is at the discretion of each guest. This tour is suitable for guests with limited mobility. Comfortable, layered clothing, a waterproof jacket or coat, flat, closed-toe walking shoes and sun protection are recommended. Due to the local climate, most of the coaches are air-cooled.
