Tickets and tours
Titanic Experience
The self-guided Titanic Experience tour lasts about an hour and extends over nine galleries.ÌýCleverly designed exhibits enlivened by historical images, animated projections and soundtracks chart Belfast’s rise to turn-of-the-20th-century industrial superpower, followed by a high-tech ride through a noisy, smells-and-all recreation of the city’s shipyards.Ìý
You can explore every detail of theÌýTitanic’sÌýconstruction, from a computer ‘fly-through’ from keel to bridge, to replicas of the passenger accommodation. Perhaps most poignant are the few flickering images that constitute the only film footage of the ship in existence, as well as family letters, the final messages sent to nearby ships and the stories of survivors.
Tickets cost £19.50 per adult; £8.75 per child (aged 5 - 15); £15.50 per senior/student.ÌýTickets include entry to theÌýSS Nomadic. Saver tickets (adult/child £10/8) are available for speedy visits without the shipyard ride one hour before the museum closes.Ìý
