Taste 12+ Belfast dishes and drinks while exploring historic pubs, local shops, and the Cathedral Quarter with a small-group guide.
“This was probably the worst tour we've ever booked through Viator. It was extremely difficult to find our guide - he had no sign or anything for us to identify him as our guide. Once our tour started, he talked almost exclusively to two men on the tour and ignored my husband and myself. I had to ask him numerous times to speak to the whole group and not just a few members. He did more talking about Belfast buildings than he did food. I indicated I am dairy free and he made it seem like that would be an Impossible task. At one stop, beer was served - I…”
Ride Belfast’s Cathedral Quarter and city centre by beer bike with your group, your music, and a guide, while bringing your own drinks.
“We drank, we laughed and we sang Christmas songs whilst peddling the streets of Belfast city centre. Got to stop a few times to have a look around at some places before getting back on. Couldn’t recommend the beer bike enough and our guide Johnny was brilliant. There was another young man with him but I didn’t catch him name. They were so friendly and made it even better.”

Tour Belfast’s McConnell’s Distillery in a former prison wing, learn how Irish whisky is made, and taste three distinctive drams.

Explore Belfast’s Thompson Graving Dock, Titanic history, Irish whiskey, award-winning vodka, and a cocktail on this two-hour tour.
“We had an amazing time on our tour with Johnnie! The weather was rough- so it was just my husband & I, which was fine by us. We loved learning the history of the graving dock, the building & Belfast. The vodka & whisky tasting was great- and we predict that the brand is going to grow rapidly! Would highly recommend.”
Pedal through Belfast’s Cathedral Quarter on a one-hour beer bike with your group, bringing your own drinks and seeing key city sights.
“Beer bike is great fun! Bartender is there to pour your drinks whether you’re buying on board or bring your own - this is super helpful as your belongings are stored on shelves above the bike. Drinks are pricey if you buy on board. Bike is much harder to pedal continuously than we thought it would be, but well worth it! Lots of fun & would highly recommend.”
Taste Belfast through markets, pubs, and independent food spots on this four-hour tour with breakfast, drinks, cheese, and local stories.
“Great tour. Small group. Left cruise terminal on full size bus. Short ride to Belfast town center. Walked at good pace to four stops for food and drink. Potatoes and hard cider, bread dipping sauce, spreads, cheese. Then lamb stew or chowder and beer or wine or cider, finally hot chocolate and chocolate liqueur filled candy. Liam provided great information along the way. Had time to shop a little along the way. Back to cruise terminal right on time. Great guide and great tour. Highly recommend”
