Historic Pub Tour
Belfast has many centuries old taverns and our historic pub tour is a perfect blend of history and hospitality in equal measure. This tour takes you on a journey back in time with fascinating insights into the city’s economic, social, cultural and often troubled political evolution. Our pubs are survivors of a bygone age and some of these pubs have been serving liquor since Belfast was a village and each have their own fascinating stories to tell. They are historically and often architecturally significant but retain a unique charm with a warm and welcoming aura. This tour also includes some of Belfast’s vibrant new pubs which have transformed many of the city’s older buildings while retaining their authentic Victorian character.
This tour can also be combined with some of the city’s world class street art.
SAY CHEERS WITH CRAFT BEERS
Belfast is home to many craft breweries such as Bell’s Brewery where you can observe the entire brewing process from the comfort of your seat. Unpateurised, unfiltered beer born and brewed in Belfast. On brew days you can smell the malt being mashed and the hops being added to the boil. There are a fabulous variety of beers and brews which are best enjoyed in one of the city’s authentic bars and snugs.
IT’S ALWAYS A LOVELY DAY FOR A GUINNESS
No trip to Belfast is complete without a pint of the black stuff! It’s no urban myth that Guinness tastes nicer in Ireland! We will introduce you to the best in Belfast with some pubs allowing you to pour your own stout!
DROP IN FOR A DRAM OF WHISKEY
In Victorian times two-thirds of the whiskey exported from Ireland was distilled in Belfast. The city is steeped in whiskey heritage from the converted bonded warehouses, public art, historic artefacts in the Duke of York, the Dark Horse and the Friend at Hand whiskey shop which stocks the largest collection of Irish whiskeys in the world! It would be rude not to drop in for a dram while enjoying some traditional Irish music. Why not even combine our walking tour with a whiskey tasting tour at the fantastic Titanic Distillers. Our route will take us along the scenic maritime mile passed so many attractions and public art installations (The salmon of knowledge, Lagan weir bridge, SSE Arena, Belfast Harbor Marina, the SS Nomadic, Titanic Belfast Museum, Titanic Hotel and Slipways, HMS Caroline and finally Titanic Distillers at the historic Thompson Dock
