Amazing things to do in and around BELFAST | N Ireland | Travel Guide

Want a stunning weekend break? Then join us as we show you Belfast and the Causeway Coastal Route, on this Northern Ireland road trip! Amazing things to do in and around BELFAST

Visiting the "Game of Thrones" Dark Hedges, The Giants Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, Titanic, Mount Stewart, sample the nightlife at some of the famous pubs in the Belfast City Centre and much more.

Belfast has stepped it up a gear and is now truly a fantastic destination for a weekend break. With flights from Europe at reasonable prices, you can bag a great deal within a low budget.

We hired a car to allow us to travel further out of the city and within just a 2 hours radius there are many attractions, beautiful and stunning locations/views.

We drove the Causeway coastal route in a loop so that we ended up back in Belfast at the end of the first day. Maps and links are in the video and below.
Setting out at 8am we started at the Dark Hedges, this enabled us to arrive at the Giants Causeway at 9.15am close to opening and to try and avoid the crowds.
We spent a few hours walking the coastal trails before the weather turned so we moved on by 10 miles to Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge. Another National Trust gem, but with a steep £9 charge! (if you cross the rope bridge). Torr Head was our next stop, with views over to Scotland and the Mull of Kintyre.
Back in Belfast for the evening we sampled some Guinness and visited a few of the famous pubs in the Cathedral Quarter. It's very lively here and worth checking out the area. There is lots of choices.

On Sunday we started the day with an Ulster Fry at Maggie May's before driving the Shankill road to look at the murals. Heading out east we made our way to the Mount Stewart National Trust estate. The drive along the Strangford Lough was beautiful. The gardens and house are stunning. You could spend all day here with a picnic. Plenty to see and do. However, we wanted to get back for Titanic so headed for the Harland and Wolfe docks. The Titanic Museum is £19 and at that price, you want to make sure you give yourself a few hours to see all the artefacts and outdoor locations. Sadly we didn't feel we had enough time to see it all and so passed on the entrance fee and walked around the free open areas. An excuse to come back and do this attraction properly sometimes!

To end our weekend, we had a beer at The Crown pub in the city centre. It's a very famous Victorian pub with all its original fixtures and fittings. See if you can find a free booth to sit and drink in!
