Belfast Day Tour

Belfast city is a must do tour on your trip to Ireland. Only 2 hours from Dublin this full day tour is filled with excitement around every corner.  Sit back and enjoy the view while your experienced guide tells you stories of old and interesting tales and enjoy plenty of time to ramble around the city.

We start the trip with a visit to the famous Peace Wall which used to separate the loyalist and republican communities.  Bill Clinton and Nelson Mandela's words of encouragement can still be seen written on the wall today.  Visit the home of the doomed Titanic before she set sail for her one and only voyage.  Take some fantastic photos at the Mourne Mountain range and watch the bus roll uphill on Gravity Hill.

Don’t just see Ireland, love Ireland.
