Today, we travel into the heart of Belfast, with our experienced local guide, a certified expert in the city's history and culture, to explore beautiful Belfast. Our guided tour is a great way to discover the history, the people, and the stories that have helped shape this remarkable city. During your time, we'll explore landmarks like the City Hall, Peace Wall, Cathedral Quarter and the Albert Clock. This afternoon, we return to our hotel with a chance to enjoy the spa and leisure facilities.
After a morning at leisure, we travel to Belfast's Titanic Quarter, where we have included admission to the Titanic Experience, a state-of-the-art exhibition beside the slipways where the ship was built over one hundred years ago. In this interactive self-guided experience, you will uncover the true story of the Titanic, from her conception in Belfast to her famous maiden voyage and tragic sinking. Experience the grandeur and tragedy of the Titanic like never before!
Day at leisure. Alternatively, join us for an OPTIONAL full-day excursion to the Giant's Causeway today! We start by travelling along the Antrim Coastal Road, arriving in Ballycastle for some free time. The harbour town and holiday resort mark the eastern end of the Causeway Coast; this pretty town has a coastal promenade and a thriving food scene. We later continue to today's highlight, the stunning Giant's Causeway, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty that has been attracting visitors for centuries! Steeped in myth and legend, we spend time at the Giant's Causeway Visitor Centre, which boasts unparalleled views of the Causeway coastline (a shuttle bus to the Giant's Causeway is usually available to book once at the visitor's centre and is approximately £1.50 each way payable locally).
