Upon your arrival in Belfast, the first major stop will be the Peace Wall, an essential part of Belfast’s modern history. Full of graffiti, murals and signatures, the wall is also a bit of an art piece these days – why don’t you add your own signature?

From there, your group will be brought to the Republican Museum, which features a collection of memorabilia from Belfast’s and Northern Ireland’s recent history. There are uniforms, weapons, photos, newspapers, posters and even parts of prison cells on display, giving your group some authentic insights.

Afterwards, your group can enjoy some free time in Belfast City Centre and have some lunch, for example, in one of the numerous pubs around Belfast City Hall. They could also visit a local sight, such as Ulster Hall, the Linen Hall Library or the City Hall itself.

For your last stop in Belfast, your group will visit Belfast’s most popular attraction: the Titanic Experience. On seven galleries, the complete history of the famous cruiser is explored here, from its construction right here in Belfast to the great event that was its launch, the journey to New York, the passengers and, of course, the disaster of its sinking. The exhibition also deals with the many myths and legends surrounding the Titanic, and it features a presentation on the wreckage, which still lies off the coast of Newfoundland.

After this major highlight, your coach will return to Dublin, where you will arrive around dinner time.
