- MaggerZWest End, UK286 contributionsWorth every penny. Living in southampton we share a bond with belfast, but this is how the Titanic should be remembered, an absolutely stunning visitor attraction. From the growth of Belfast to the development of the yards and eventually the creation of 'that ship' Titanic belfast tells it all. I really cannot find fault...and we didn't even get to go on the 'ride ' as it had broken downWritten April 21, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ColleenBelfast, UK47 contributionsI can’t speak to all of the exhibits. As a lover of modern Irish history, I mostly stuck to the exhibition on the Troubles. But, even if that’s all you’re interested in going here for, it’s a great (and free!) place to stop. It’s also near Queens University and the Botanic Gardens, so it’s worth spending a few hours in the area.Written April 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Matthew R1 contributionThis was an amazing experience. The tour guide was very helpful and welcoming. We felt we learned so much about the history of the Irish FA, great players and managers and the story Windsor Park. I could not recommend this tour highly enough. Thank you!Written April 15, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Luciano242Edinburgh, UK492 contributionsWe really enjoyed seeing HM Caroline. Ed was really good doing the tour, interacted very well with everyone, and made the experience very enjoyable with great information about the ship.
We managed to see most part of the ship, but there are other parts, unfortunately, out of bounds. The history is amazing, especially the battle of Jutland. The HMS Caroline is well kept considering she was launched in 1914. A must see when visiting BelfastWritten April 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Matt WardAbu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates60 contributionsA fantastic location which made the science teacher in me geek out a lot. There were enough items for an 18month old to do but the main age range must be 3-12 years old and I would say they will have a blast.
There were so many hands on activities which were all very well maintained (not 1 station was broken in the whole place!). Despite the place being nearly at capacity due to poor weather in the school holidays it did not feel overly crowded once you were in.
Fun and educational - a must do for family’s in the area!Written April 19, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The beautiful tea room was located in the elegant library which had a fascinating poster collection amongst other exhibits. The staff are extremely friendly and the food was delicious. My vegetarian breakfast was one of the best that I have ever had.Written March 9, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Moskvichka12Moscow, Russia579 contributionsWOW!
This little museum is hidden away out the back of the Peace Wall, but it is totally worth seeking out! It is totally free, and they welcome donations to help support it.
I expected it to be very small, but although it only really takes up one room, there is a tonne of exhibits - newspaper entries, photos, models, objects made by prisoners... You can easily spend an hour here and I'd like to see it get a larger location.
Staff are friendly and helpful.
I was completely blown away by the work by prisoners. They are some seriously talented people!
What I liked the most was the emphasis on facts and absence of blame or one-sidedness. This is a seriously good museum and everyone should see it, locals and interested tourists.Written March 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We were keen to ensure we received an insight into perspectives drawn from all sides and that is what we got. This Museum is well worth a visit. The displays were clearly laid out and covered the range of history associated with Orange Heritage. The staff were friendly, approachable and the excellent guide provided information that was both informative and balanced. We will come again but we will need to add more time to the visit (at least 90 minutes) as there is so much to see and read.Written October 30, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Shop was full of things to buy and great militaria at a budget friendly price. Work was being done when we went with scaffolding but it was just as good as I think it would have been normally! They helped traced records of my relatives in the regiment and the information and artefacts themselves were really informative. The staff had 1-1 conversations and expanded on the information around. A small but brilliant place.Written February 28, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
