Any business called the Wee Tram is obviously going to be great. My dad, who can't walk too far…read morethese days, and I popped on to have a little tour around the Titanic dockyard. Chris, the guide, is one of the most charming and enthusiastic hosts I've ever encountered. A "titanorak", his knowledge and passion for the dockyard and its history is communicated extremely effectively through the video and live commentary. The actual dockyard itself is of course extremely fascinating and I found seeing Titanic's dock and the great H&W cranes Samson & Goliath up close particularly thrilling. It's moving too - I hadn't realised half the Titanic's dead were its crew, marked in grass where she was built. We also drove past the studio were GoT Season 6 was being filmed RIGHT THEN. Nbd. I believe you can get a pass for this and the open top bus tour for £15, which seems like excellent value. Just the tram ticket is valid for two days as well. You might be interested to know that this business is supporting Chris's spiritual work as the chaplain in the Titanic Quarter, he and his wife also run the very popular Dock restaurant nearby.

I loved The Wee Tram. It's billed a s a tourist attraction but any Belfast resident with even a…read morepassing interest in our culture and history should definitely hop on board The Wee Tram. The Titanic Quarter is steeped in history and this interactive tour is the best way to see it all in under an hour. The concept is quite simple you, you can hop on The Wee Tram at one of eight stops around the Titanic Quarter. The electric tram comes equipped with TV's telling the story of each attraction - you even get given traditional yardmen's hats as you travel, this really helps the passengers get in to the spirit of the Tram. Chris, the tour guide, is full of knowledge, especially knowledge of the Titanic - you'll get more insight in to what went on in the early nineteen hundreds on The Wee Tram than in the Titanic Museum. A personal highlight for me was getting up close and personal with Samson and Goliath and seeing the vast ship yard. The tour costs £6 for adults which is an absolute snip when you consider that the ticket can be used over 2 days. Couldn't recommend this experience enough!

We spent some time looking at the Protestant/Ulster Defense murals off in a neighborhood off Shankill Road. Next we went to one of the main peace walls in the city, I believe on Falls Road which was the republic side. I got to walk down the road and spend some time digesting everything, The whole time Joe provided a very honest, fair account of the conflict and some of the lingering issues today. Joe was really friendly and took time to answer any questions I had. He even recommended the Crumlin Road Gaol tour and dropped me off there after we were done (which was another great tour and great recommendation). I highly recommend these guys - this is a must for anyone visiting Belfast.

Initially I was worried what to expect with our private tour we booked. Our tour guide/driver, Michael turned out to be a delight! We had a busy day ahead of us and as we Informed it was typical Belfast weather with the rain that greeted us. However, drab the weather was it definitely did not dampen our spirits or our fun! We arrived to Belfast port and Michael met us outside our ship. The tour company does offer group tours for a lot less but keep in mind you will be among 30+ people. You can also pay more to go on a mini van tour with 16 people. There are many options to select that caters to your needs. We opted to pay more for a private tour because we wanted to leisurely explore the sites without stress. Plus my sister and I love to take lots of pics. Although we were seated in our spacious vehicle,sheltered from the rain with plenty of bottled water and tayto's to curb our appetite. we did wait a bit for him to return to the vehicle. But thereafter it was loads of fun with Michael, good chats and excellent strategic planning to visit the dark hedges, dunluce castle, giant's causeway and carrick a rede bridge. Seeing dark hedges first allowed us the opportunity to visit during a peaceful period with barely anyone there to get in our pictures. It was basically my sister and me and 5 other people at the site. All the sights were absolutely splendid places to visit and if my sister and I didn't take so long at giant's causeway we might have been able to see the big fish sculpture and cs Lewis sculpture park. But unfortunately time ran out and Michael safely and expeditiously returned us to our ship on time. Thank you Michael for being such a great tour guide, excellent driver and conversationalist. Your knowledge and history of Ireland made us wiser, informed and your company was pleasant. Thanks for our warm welcoming tour on a wet, dreary day. High points for quality, service, customer service and friendliness and cleanliness and communication.

The tour was incredible and so worth it!! Our tour guide Bryan was so entertaining and it was cool…read morethat he'd acted in almost every season of the show. The bus rides play awesome behind the scenes videos of the filming. The first stop of the tour is Winterfell. Be prepared that it looks very little like the winterfell on TV and don't expect it to because I did. CGI is amazing! It was still so cool and Bryan showed us screenshots of the scenes in the exact spots they were filmed which really helps with the visual. From winterfell we did a beautiful hike that explored where they filmed The Twins, scenes from Brienne and Jaime's journey in season 3, and more. The scenery was gorgeous and I feel I learned so much about GoT, filming in general, and Irish history. The whole tour had a lot of Irish history which was cool. From there we went to the Cuan for lunch for a great meal and then the best part was meeting the direwolves!!! We met Summer and Greywind and they're the goodest boys that ever gooded. As an FYI they aren't promised on the tour because being live animals they just can't do that every day so I got really lucky. It's not scheduled activity. Next was Inch Abbey, where the scenes with Robb being named King of the North were filmed. Bryan gave us all cloaks and swords and we re enacted a scene from season 1 and it was so fun and silly to get into. Inch Abbey is beautiful too. Lastly we went to Tollymore Forest Park where the Starks found the direwolves and where the first scene of GoT with the white walkers was filmed. Not only was it cool for GoT but the gardens and nature is absolutely STUNNING. The tour lasted from 8:30 AM - 6:00 PM and was one of my favorite days from the trip!

South route(Winterfell) and North route(Ironisland). Since north route sounded more scenic as it goes along Northern Irish coast, we chose the latter. It was £50 per person and whole day affair. So, make sure to leave your entire day open for this. We rendezvoused at Jury's hotel at 7:45am and boarded on the bus. And our guide Richard was an extra in the show himself. His red long beard once made me think that he was a Tormond's stunt double.(but he wasn't) Entire way through he was talking but NEVER ONCE I wanted him to be quiet. Because he was very informative and HILARIOUS! They are also equipped with plenty of House of Greyjoy costume and weapons(swords and axes) for photo shoot. Although we were tourists, we became the attraction ourselves when people saw us in the group wearing those, carrying weapon at the House of Greyjoy site. Every stop was breathtakingly scenic. I honestly think that you can still enjoy even if you don't watch the show. Definitely check this tour out and ask for Richard. He's really a fun guy.

I attended today, Sunday 5 February 2017, and found it fantastically enthralling. Our Tour Guide Adam delivered an informative and entertaining two hours, which at only £8 per person, was great value for money. We wandered at a leisurely pace viewing a huge number of beautiful, thought provoking and inspiring artworks. It's great to see there's so much more to Belfast than old, sectarian murals from our troubled past. Instead this tour highlights recent, contemporary, Urban Art in and around Belfast's Cathedral Quarter which has sprung up over the last few years revitalising and brightening the city. We learnt how different pieces of Street Art were created, the techniques employed, who the Artists are and background stories of how the works came to be. Thanks to Seedhead Arts, this is definitely the best thing currently happening in Belfast. I very highly recommend this Tour - it's wonderful food for the eyes and uplifting for the soul.
