Hi, my name is Anne and I am an accredited green badge tourist guide for Belfast. I am a local and I am born and bred in Belfast. I studied law at Queens University Belfast and practiced as a solicitor in Belfast city centre for thirty years. I grew up in Belfast during the period of the troubles and only once I started travelling did I recognize the rather "different" upbringing and experiences of my early childhood and later working life. I have travelled widely around the world but feel Belfast is a unique and one off place for people to visit. I love art, architecture, history and story telling. I love being outdoors - probably after thirty years in an office! Belfast is a city of great variety from Victorian buildings to the modern Titanic Belfast experience. I offer city walking tours and can customise a walking tour to suit your needs. I am an accredited green badge guide for Belfast. I am a member of the Northern Ireland Tourist Guide Association. I have an LLB law degree and practised as a solicitor in Belfast City Centre for 30 years. I provide walking tours only and will suggest use of public transport if required. I can act as a step on guide if you have your own transport.

Overview of your Belfast tour

You have not had the full Titanic experience until you have walked to Thompson Dock Belfast where Titanic departed on her maiden voyage. Join me outside the Titanic Centre Belfast (or another agreed meeting point) to start the story of the famous ship from inception in the drawing room of Harland & Wolf to the build on the slipways and on to Thompson dry dock where she had her final fit out and left sail to Southampton. Hear about the passengers on board and the one lady who sailed on the three Olympic class ships, Olympic, Titanic and Britannic. See the sights along the way to include Titanic Studios, H&W cranes and glasses of thrones, and the building blocks in Thompson Dry Dock the Titanic rested on - I will take you where the men who built the Titanic walked. You can then take your own private visit to Titanic distillery/Titanic Belfast. I highly recommend you do this walk first before the Titanic Belfast exhibit to deepen your understanding of the galleries at Titanic and to become a Titanorack!
