Itinerary

Belfast's only hop-on hop-off tour with official Tourist Board accreditation, City Sightseeing Belfast takes you across 19 stops covering the city's culture, history, and entertainment.

Start at City Hall, where you can hop off for the Wickerman and Carrolls gift shops, with the Albert Memorial Clock right nearby. From Bus Stop 2, you're close to the Big Fish Sculpture, Customs House, and McHughs Bar, one of the city's oldest pubs.

At Bus Stops 4 and 5, you’ll find the perfect gateway to the Titanic Quarter. Step back in time as you visit Titanic Belfast, the SS Nomadic, the Titanic Dock and Pump House, and the HMS Caroline—an extraordinary vessel that served during the First World War.

From Bus Stops 6 through 12, immerse yourself in Belfast’s architectural and civic landmarks, including the impressive City Government Buildings. Don’t miss the chance to wander through St. George’s Market, the largest indoor market in the UK. As the tour continues, you’ll encounter the cultural heart of the city: the Grand Opera House, The Five Points, Queen’s University, the Botanic Gardens, the International Wall Murals, the Spectrum Centre, and the famous Shankill Road Wall Murals.

Enjoy panoramic views from the open‑top red buses, and whenever something catches your eye, simply hop off to explore at your own pace. When you’re ready to continue, just hop back on—no need to navigate public transport. City Sightseeing offers the most flexible and enjoyable way to discover Belfast on your terms.
