Step by Step

Belfast is a unique city, shaped by centuries of British and Irish history and deeply marked by its political conflict. But it's much more than that: it's the birthplace of the Titanic, the setting for Game of Thrones, and home to some of the most authentic pubs you'll find. This free tour will allow you to experience it in all its diversity.

Starting from the imposing Belfast City Hall, your guide will introduce you to the historical and social roots that defined the Catholic and Protestant communities. You'll learn how these differences continue to influence the city's identity.

The tour continues along the famous Golden Mile, past the Europa Hotel (the most bombed hotel in history), Belfast' s mighty murals and other sites of political, religious and cultural significance. You will also get to know the vibrant side of Belfast: its rock music, legends and contemporary art.

The last part of the tour takes you to the centre of the new Belfast, where you will discover modern art, Masonic lodges, pub-lined lanes and iconic landmarks such as the Albert Memorial Clock or the charming Big Fish, which tradition has it that you should kiss to bring good luck!
