We start at the iconic Big Fish, standing on the very ground where Belfast’s story began. Beneath your feet lies a rich tapestry of history, myth, and intrigue. From here, our journey through the streets of Beal Feirste unfolds - a tale woven with shipbuilding, rebellion, and a cast of unforgettable characters.
We’ll trace the flow of the River Farset to Custom House Square, explore the hidden alleys of The Entries (and their scandalous past), and pause outside some of the historic establishments that keep our city lubricated with a beverage or two. Along the way, expect to encounter stories of resilience - from St. Anne’s Cathedral to the powerful legacy of Frederick Douglass and Mary Ann McCracken.
Whether you’re a history buff, a curious wanderer, or just in search of good craic, I hope this tour offers a fresh take on a city that’s small in size but mighty in character, and has one heck of a story.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
I will be in the compass rose directly in front of Belfast's Big Fish, just after the traffic lights. Look out for my bright blue backpack!
