[@oscarosullivan4513]

@@woltersworld Have you tried any of the local brews. Titanic Belfast is a tremendous building. There is a heritage railway in County Down, The Rail Preservation Society of Ireland is in Whitehead and there is an Ulster transport museum. One of those tours uses an ex battle ship grey RUC armoured Land Rover.

[@nicolaramoso3286]

The best thing about public transport in NI is that is completely integrated. When I took the train from Belfast to Derry the cashier gave me a daily pass for the whole of NI instead of a simple ticket and that meant that I could use every bus and train in NI for the rest of the day. So when we arrived in Derry I saw what I wanted to see in three hours and since it was only 1 PM I told to myself that I should go to the Giant's Causeway since I've never seen that. So I took the train back to Belfast, hopped on a bus at Coleraine that led me to Giant's Causeway, with a single ticket. That was quite amazing.

[@noodlyappendage6729]

I have been to the UK and Ireland a few times. If you are at 3 times just visiting London, you definitely need to see the English countryside, Scotland and Ireland. If I had a choice between Edinburgh and London, I would always pick Edinburgh. Scotland is beautiful. Belfast is great but I went when they just got done filming Game of Thrones there, and the tours were incredible. Dublin is good but you also need to get out to Killarney, Galway and see the sights. Also the is so much to see outside of London, like Bath, Bristol, Liverpool, etc. Even if you are comfortable with London, use it like a hub. Between the train system, and the short commuter flights, you can bounce all around the UK and Ireland. Trust me, You will thank me later.

Also the traditional “Ulster Fry” breakfast is a must have. The Errigle Inn on Ormeau Road is a top tip for great pub grub and atmosphere. Ten mins on the bus from city centre. The beautiful Ormeau Park is also a good place to walk off the food & beer. ✌️🙂

Even better, take the train and enjoy the beautiful North coast.

It's worth pointing out that the northern Northern Ireland coastline and countryside is absolutely beautiful - there's some stunning scenery and coastal views that are absolutely beautiful with a lick of sunshine. Tourists just want to get to the crowded and small Giants Causeway area, and a couple of other spots - they're missing out, as the coastal drive has a Lot of other spots to take in, with some of the prettiest countryside found on the whole island if you drive westward over towards Derry/Londonderry and then cross the Border towards nearby Letterkenny in the Republic...

Pretty short, comprehensive, fair, roundup about the town we love so well....Belfast. Well done WW! If you want to see the Titanic story of 'Jack and Rose', as you said, you will not find it at the Titanic Exhibition. It is however at another local, Titanic museum/Exhibition, at the marvellous, lesser known, Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, 6 miles along the coast at Cultra, on the road to Bangor. I thoroughly recommend St George's Market but NOT the Belfast, ( Continental ), Christmas market, at the city Hall. This Continental market is full of over priced, foreign tat. It is a travelling show, replica, found in so many other European city markets. There is little local authenticity about it. The food sold in the Continental market can be sourced outside the market in local Belfast food outlets, at a fraction of the price. Profits from the Continental Market disappear out of Belfast to Europe. Otherwise, a good report given, WW. Best wishes from the Belfast Castlereagh hills of Northern Ireland.

Just round the corner from titanic and it's fab hotel is the HMS Caroline last surviving ship from Battle of jutland ww1. Its been fitted out in its original design fun for all the family if its still open!!!

[@mkirksmith]

I found HMS Caroline more interesting than the Titanic exhibition. Maybe because it's a real ship.

This guy knows more about Belfast than most people who live there.

He curiously said that last time he was in Belfast the peace was wasn't up which I thought strange because wasn't the main wall put up in 1969?

I'm glad you enjoyed our city. I'd also add in for visitors to take one of the taste, or historical tours of the city, or a bus tour of the Antrim coast, if the weather is good. Some beautiful scenery. Belfast is a very safe city. Plenty of lively people around ,but no real trouble.

Visited last year for the first time. Completely fell in love with the country and the people

Another good "don't" especially if traveling off season for Christmas. Don't expect the variety of lovely B&B type accommodations to be open. You may be more apt to stay in a hotel or guest house because of seasonal closures in the B&B world. 👍

Gotta be pointed out that satisfactorily portraying Northern Ireland to the complete satisfaction of the majority of the locals is a nearly impossible task. As someone from NI I loved this, reading the comments also seems everyone else feels the same. Good work 👏

Great video showcasing our great City. Many thanks

[@ItsAWasteOfTime]

I used to lived in NI for 7yrs, and you have summed it up beautifully. Well done :)

As a person from Northern Ireland I agree with all of this hope you enjoyed your time there

[@KingDiddymus]

Your name says GB yet you're from Northern Ireland?

Cool video dude, i have lived in belfast all my life! glad you enjoyed your visit

[@gordripley1406]

Your videos are always some of the best!

[@Anteater23]

Northern Ireland is so small you should definitely visit the North Coast when you visit Belfast.

Exactly
