Rejseplan
Udforsk fortiden, nutiden og fremtiden for Titanic Quarter, hvor Titanic blev bygget, og mød de samfund, der byggede hende
På det sidste tilbageværende skib fra selskabet White Star Line vil du høre om det fascinerende liv for dette skib, som inkluderede at tage passagerer til Titanic. Vi går ikke ombord på skibet på denne tur.
Undre dig over omfanget af Thompson Dry Dock som den største Dock i verden, når den er bygget. Titanic blev udstyret her, før den sejlede til Southampton. Vi passerer også HMS Caroline og går langs floden Maritime Mile-stien med fantastisk udsigt over Belfast Lough
Vi stopper ved disse to ikoniske gule traner - symbolet på Belfast og et fantastisk selfiested for at skabe minder fra din tur til Belfast
Denne smukke fællesplads er vært for den fantastiske Narnia-skulptursti med bronzemodeller af alle yndlingsfigurerne skabt af CS Lewis, inklusive en massiv Aslan. Vi stopper for forfriskninger ved besøgscentret og lærer om arven i området, da Belfast var en industriel verdensleder.
Vi cykler langs de dejlige trafikfrie stier langs floden i East Belfast afslappende og i ét med naturen.
De victorianske bade er for nylig blevet nænsomt renoveret, og vi kommer til at besøge kulturarvszonen, som fortæller en fantastisk historie om de østlige Belfast-samfund, der boede her og arbejdede på skibsværfter og andre større værker i byen. Lær samfundet at kende, der byggede Titanic.
Dette højkvalitetshotel har til huse i de gamle Harland og Wolff-kontorer og inkluderer en kulturarvszone, som vi vil besøge. Vi kommer til at besøge kontorerne for Harland, Wolff og Lord Pirrie og kommer til at se tegnestuerne, hvor Harland og Wolff-skibene blev designet. Turene slutter her, så du kan blive til en kop kaffe eller en drink i disse vidunderlige omgivelser.

Steven was a great guide for our group of 4 on bikes. We learned so much about Belfast. He’s very knowledgeable. Only wish we had lunch at a local pub, not the fancy hotel.
Hi Seri - Was a great pleasure to guide you and your colleagues by Bike around Belfast. Shame about the only ever review I've had not to give 5 stars. The choices for lunch venue were decided with your colleague before the trip with a pub offered but due to your limited time available due to the cruise timings we agreed to chose the Titanic Hotel. Hope the rest of the cruise was fab and again really lovely to guide you round Belfast. Thanks for taking time to review. Steven
Steven really told us all about the area around the Titanic he couldn't stop talking about his east Belfast a very passionate man
Bedankt voor de recensie - ik heb echt genoten van de ontmoeting met de 6 Nederlandse gasten en de fietstocht rond de Titanic in Belfast
Steven brought good bikes to navigate the safe roads on a mostly traffic free route. He took us from the modest origins of Belfast to the proud ship building industry and the current state of present history. Templemore Baths and the Titanic slipway are just two of many highlights. This tour is not to be missed. Steven brings thorough knowledge of Belfast and the complex history to the tour, but most of all good companionship. We were enriched in so many ways. Highly recommended.
We had a great morning with Steven around the Titanic area and East Belfast. Steven was really knowledgeable about the area having grown up there. We felt safe on the bikes with his guidance despite not being regular cyclists. A great thing to do with friends or family. Highly recommend!
Thanks you so much for the review - it was a great morning. All the best
I’ve never done a cycling tour before, and haven’t really cycled in 5 years. I didn’t know what to expect. But it’s a really interesting a fun activity. You ride while learning about The rich history of the shipyards and east belfast which was excellently explained to us by Steven. Definitely something I’ll do again in future.
Aww that is lovely to hear - you were great company and glad you enjoyed the family day out.
A sunny days ride, packed with laughter and information with Steven. We chose this tour to take in the docks & history and Steven’s knowledge about the history and area shines through his passion for local heritage & the people that shaped it. His tour brings to life the evolution of the Titanic dockland area from industrial powerhouse through the barren 70s to the thriving regeneration example of today. Steven is a great guide and you’ll not be disappointed!
We learnt so much about Belfast and its history on this fabulous bike tour with Steven, our very knowledgeable local guide. The actual cycling was fun too as the bikes were well maintained and the route largely traffic free. This was an absolutely top class experience and great value for money as it was by far the best tour that we did during our 3 days in Belfast
Many thanks Frances and delighted Clive and yourself enjoyed the tour .S.
A very informative and interesting East Side bike tour with a friendly local who really knew his stuff and spoke clearly. The history of the shipyard/Titanic was particularly fascinating and a great alternative to the crowds at the Titanic museum. We learned so much! It was a cold wet day but still enjoyable, ending with a superb lunch at the Titanic Hotel. Highly recommend!
Ed it was lovely to spend time with you and delighted you enjoyed the tour. I just love the heritage of the Titanic Hotel too.
Friendly and knowledgeable guide. Good bikes. Nice easy pace. A great way to learn about this lovely city.. I felt we were in in the hands of a professional tour guide who was keen to share his local knowledge with us.
Thanks very much for joining a Hometown tour and I appreciate the review and feedback
