Getting around
It’s worth saying that if you catch Ryanair at the right time, the flights here are ridiculously cheap and you will arrive in just one hour and 20 minutes from London. Getting from Belfast airport to the city centre is a breeze, you and the girls can save money on a taxi by catching the Airport Express train which takes approximately 30-40 minutes. A taxi service is also available at the airport and will cost you an average of £38. Once you’re there you will discover that Belfast is a compact, walkable city, meaning you will save money on cabs. However if you are wanting to save on shoe leather the bus service Translink is reliable and regular as clockwork, with Metro and Glider operating in the city and Uber is also available.
Tips and ideas
- Prepare for rain as Belfast is similar to the UK and can be just as wet!
- Visit Titanic Belfast, where the infamous cruise liner was built
- Learn about the city’s troubles past by taking a black cab tour
- Make restaurant reservations, especially at the weekend!
- Tipping 10-15% is recommended in restaurants
- Sundays can be quiet with many shops closing early due to religious reasons
- Pounds are accepted in most places
- July 12th can be a sensitive time. It’s an Ulster Protestant celebration dating back to the 1700s, commemorating the victory of Protestant King William of Orange over Catholic King James II at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. Protestant areas of the city erect Union flags, paint their street curbs red, white and blue, and may look under siege as bonfires are burnt on the 11th night, this is to signal the forthcoming celebrations.
Nightlife
The city is renowned for its lively pub scene, with everything from traditional pubs to modern party bars. Expect lots of live music venues, peppered with original alehouses and nightclubs. Make sure you visit The Crown which is a gorgeous traditional venue steeped in history. There are booths inside the pub where ladies used to sit/hide in the olden days, as drinking wasn’t deemed ladylike (lol) Out of sight, out of mind was the ethos and a button was installed inside each booth that the women would press, this would release a flag and notify the bar staff they needed another beer! The Dirty Onion is Belfast’s oldest building and here you will find live music and great food too. If it’s a lively younger crowd you seek, then we recommend visiting Filthy McNastys for cheaper drinks and live music and The Points which gets really busy from 10pm with live music and everyone on their feet dancing. If it’s dancing you seek, then Club Lux is just the ticket, doors close at 2am. Ollies is another late night venue and probably one of the hottest spots in the city, playing Disco, House, Hip Hop and R&B every Saturday night until 3am!
