    Hi guys.

    So the girlfriend and I are heading up to Belfast for the night on Sunday. I'm wondering what is best to do and see considering we did the Titanic museum and a sightseeing tour.

    I would love to get some other tourist stuff in before heading out for a dinner etc at night.

    We could also do some things on Monday too as our coach home isn't until 3:30

    The Crumlin Gaol tour is very good - it starts early enough in the morning so you could easily do it on the Monday morning

    Yep was up there also, worth a visit but the Gaol is definitely a must. The one thing that Belfast people do so well is story telling, cos its still so raw

    The SS Nomadic is very good (better than the titanic museum IMO). Also if the weather is nice, a stroll through botanic gardens, visiting the greenhouse, and maybe the Ulster museum next door. Its also right beside Queens.

    I think I seen the ss nomadic while in a tour bus last year there in the Titanic quarter.

    Botanical gardens also interests me.


    I think I'll do all of the above mentioned. Busy day and a half ahead :)

    Thanks alot guys!

    Botanical gardens and the Ulster museum we're great. Great ways to spend an afternoon in Belfast! The botanic area in general was really nice.
