Sitting between the North and the South, Belfast is in a great position for exploring Ireland. Many people fly into Belfast and take a bus down to Dublin, which can be done in a matter of a few hours. It’s a convenient place to base yourself for exploring beyond the city.

Belfast has a fascinating history that goes way beyond what most people think of when they hear about “the Troubles”; it’s not just about religion but about centuries of political struggle, identity, and resilience. Explore the Peace Walls, join a political walking tour, and take the famous Black Cab tour for an insight into life during this tumultuous time. The city is also home to the Titanic Museum and Belfast Castle, and the Cathedral Quarter is one of the city’s oldest and most well-preserved areas, where visitors can step back into history.

So many famous people have hailed from the Northern Irish capital, and have contributed immensely to their respective fields: George Best, Mary McAleese, Liam Neeson, C.S. Lewis, Van Morrison and Rory McIlroy to name just a few. These people were and are proud Belfasters, and when visiting the city, it’s easy to see why.
