Titanic Belfast Experience Museum

[drakestravels]

Like most cruisers I have a fascination with the Titanic. The "Titanic Belfast Experience" I think is the best exhibit and world's largest dedicated to the Titanic. Highly recommend for anyone stopping in Belfast. The museum offers a greater focus on the construction of the ship and conditions in Belfast when the ship was built. There's even a ride inside the museum simulating the work conditions at the shipyard. The museum itself is built on the site where the Titanic was built a developing area in Belfast known at the "Titanic District". There is a lot to see and do in this area. There's even the SS Nomadic which is the only surviving White Star Line vessel which was used as a tender to the Titanic in France prior to the transatlantic crossing.

Great video! 

 

Do you think 1 hour and 45 minutes is enough to visit the museum?

[drakestravels]

It depends how much you read into things. It's big and there is a lot to see outside of the building also and walking. For the building itself 1:45 could work if you pace yourself. If you want to see the nomadic and other outside areas you'll need more time.

Thanks so much, I enjoyed your video. The Museum didn't look very busy in your video, were you there during a cruise port stop?

Wasn't there on a cruise stop but noticed when we left in the afternoon there was longer lines. We arrived at opening and highly recommend. Even if on a cruise try to get there asap. Lots of tour buses later

We spent a few days in Belfast in September. When we visited the Titanic Experience it wasn’t too busy. We spent about three and a half hours there.

We went in July after a day touring the coast. We had about 2 hours before they closed, but could have spent a lot more time there. I thought it was exceptionally well done!
