Best of Scotland Holidays and Days Away Blog

On the 31st March the new Titanic Experience opens.  Best of Scotland Holidays and Days Away are pleased to organise packages into Titanic Belfast®.

Titanic Belfast® will be a “must see” visit in any tour of Belfast and Northern Ireland.  It is located in the heart of Belfast, right beside the historic site of this world-famous ship’s construction.  Housed in an iconic, 6-floor building, this state-of-the-art visitor experience tells the story of the Titanic, from her conception in Belfast in the early 1900’s, through her construction and launch, to her famous maiden voyage and tragic end.  The story is brought up to the present with the discovery of the wreck and into the future with live links to contemporary undersea exploration.

The adventure begins the moment you walk through the door and into the building’s giant atrium surrounded by the four high impact “hull” shaped sections which house the experience. As you wander through Titanic Belfast®, you’ll learn about Belfast at the turn of the century as a thriving boom town and experience a thrilling ride through the reconstruction of the shipyards and the Titanic under construction.  Be brought deep into the stories of the passengers, the crew and the heroes of the day; relive the drama of the tragic end to Titanic’s maiden, and only, voyage, and visit the wreck at her resting place on the floor of the North Atlantic.  Enjoy breathtaking views to the slip-ways where the Titanic was launched and relax in one of the superb catering outlets.  And if you’d like a souvenir to remind you of your trip to the home of Titanic, there’s plenty to choose from in the Titanic Store.  Check out our website for further information and prices.
