Titantic Belfast & Belfast City

Begin your day with an early departure from Dublin’s historic Connolly Station, travelling north along Ireland’s scenic east coast. Pass seaside towns such as Malahide, Skerries, and Balbriggan, before crossing the River Boyne on its impressive viaduct near Drogheda, where battles that shaped Irish history were fought. As the train climbs into the borderlands, enjoy views of rolling countryside before arriving into Belfast, Northern Ireland’s vibrant capital.

From the station, transfer to the city centre and set out on a Hop-On Hop-Off sightseeing tour, your flexible pass allowing you to explore Belfast at your own pace. Highlights include the world-class Titanic Belfast Experience, the powerful murals of the Falls and Shankill Roads, and the historic Peace Wall. You’ll also pass Stormont, home to the Northern Ireland Assembly, and discover the buzzing Cathedral Quarter, famous for its art, culture, and pubs.

The afternoon is yours to enjoy at leisure—perhaps browsing shops in the city centre, visiting the Ulster Museum, or strolling through the Botanic Gardens. Later, return to Dublin by train at a time of your choosing, bringing your Belfast adventure to a close.
