Belfast City Tours

If you would like to get to know the city you are staying in a little better but don’t know the best places to go, why not take a guided tour. Whether its Belfast's association with the Titanic, its colourful past or the thriving local art scene, there are many ways to see the city and take in the sights.

The name of the city is derived from the Gaelic Béal Feirste roughly translated as 'the mouth of the sandbank'. Nowhere is this historical legacy more potent and vibrant than along the Falls Road where the Irish language has flourished, igniting a range of 21st century cultural experiences. This area is the Gaeltacht Quarter.

A wander through the quaint old streets of the Queens Quarter will introduce you to the living art of the city. Filled with character and charm the area is named after the world renowned Queen's University of Belfast which takes centre stage. The Belfast Festival at Queen's is held here each autum with the widest imaginable range of theatre, dance music, literature, comedy and visual arts - it is the largest festival of its kind in Ireland.

The Cathedral Quarter takes its name from St. Anne's Cathedral and is packed full of fascinating architecture, ranging from distinguished banks and public buildings, to cosy pubs and trendy warehouse restaurants. In recent years, the Cathedral Quarter has taken on a pivotal role as the focus for Belfast's burgeoning arts and crafts scene. The quarter is home to many visual and performing artists, as welll as community groups.

The Titanic Quarter in Belfast, is an area situated on reclaimed land in Belfast city harbour, until recently previously known as Queens Island. Nowhere else in the world can claim a greater or prouder association with the most famous ship ever constructed. The Titanic was designed and built in Belfast between 1909 and 1912 and sent proudly out on her maiden voyage. Despite her tragic sinking she remains a source of enduring pride in the city where she was built - Belfast.
