We were with a CIE tour in 2018 and traveled to Belfast. Unfortunately, we were herded around and didn't get to see all the amazing sights you've showed us in your video. Now I want to go back and make sure we spend more time exploring on our own. You did an wonderful job showing us Belfast, it's history, wonderful places to see that aren't tourist traps, your information is interesting, and your presentation is very professional. Thank you for this truly great video!
>My NOTE In The Bottle: To Ann that lived near the Boys school in Ban-gor. We met at Moloney's in Bangor on Sept 15, 1968. We danced until the club closed & I escorted you home & we sat in your living room for maybe 30 minutes & I had to return to my ship. Yes, I was in the US Navy. My name is Harvie. I made a date to meet you/Ann at the Train station in Belfast on 16 Sep, 1968. My ship departed & I was unable to keep my date. I have often thought of you & wondered what might have been. I now live in GA USA. Hp
Im coming to Belfast for the first time in a few weeks. I’m from uk and trying to see more local areas during Covid. Nice that Belfast is part of the uk and I can visit easily. Just wanted to thank you for the guide, it was very helpful and I now have a good idea of where to visit.
@@ConnollyCove Going to spend the whole morning around the Titanic quarter, as well as the iconic museum. Shame the HMS Caroline is still closed due to COVID-19. Was really looking forward to it. Also Crimlin road Gaol.
Great travel video. So refreshing to see a real tour guide focusing on the destination instead of a pair of over the top millennials gushing about all the "amaaaaazing" places they've been with shots taken mostly of themselves for what amounts to one long selfie. My wife and I will be in Belfast in July and will reference this guide while we're there. Thanks so much doing this.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING BELFAST LOOKS GREAT VERY CLEAN. IT HAS COME ALONG WAY .I LEFT THERE IN 1965 TO MOVE TO LAS VEGAS THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE CITY I AM PROUD TO CALL IT MY HOME TOWN. 🥰🤩❤❤❤
That hotel has some amazing history. You can tell they have put a lot of time in remodeling the inside. Looks great. Same with the pub right after. I always love going to botanical gardens. Such beauty. The titanic museum looks amazing. I have a video up about the titanic cemetery here in Nova Scotia. After the titanic sunk, we were the closest big city to the wreck, so everyone was brought here. I didn't realize there was so much to do there. This really is the ultimate guide. Awesome job. Very professional and interesting to watch.
You need to add Belfast to tour list! I will def check out the Titantic video - that's really interesting - so we have a connection Titantic's beginning here in Belfast and it's end with you!!
This is a great video. I'm going to Belfast next year (2022) to see a friend who lives there and we're trying to find out things we want to do together. This is very informational and helpful! Thank you!
@@ConnollyCove Hey! Thx for your nice note. Some recently discovered ancestry in Armagh, a round at royal portrush, and I'd like to stay for a stretch at a top new spot in belfast near the heart of activity. Some suggestions there would be great, and I'll for sure visit Titanic, ali5ng with a tour to the murals. That said, things have certainly changed in our collective landscape, but I'm still looking toward a late summer/early fall trip. I hope you and yours are making out ok during this time, and thank you again for reaching out.
My husband has a business trip to Belfast next month. I have decided to go with him, even though I will have to spend the days on my own because it looks a lovely city to visit. If anyone wants to meet up on Wednesday 31st July or Thursday 1st August to show me their favourite places, hidden gems etc, that would be marvellous.
Wow Belfast looks gorgeous !! Thank you for taking us along there. Definitely will put this on my bucket list. You have a lovely channel. I just subbed. Hope you have a wonderful week.
I Love Belfast, it`s been like a second home to me. I spent best part of twenty years there and have been to many of the places shown. The Titanic Drawing offices were derelict, with the ceilings collapsing the last time I was there, that`s how long ago it was. The Crown is well worth a visit and as you said McQ`s does a fine pint of Guinness. Another good place for some Good home cooked food and a pint is The Morning Star. I have always wanted to go up one of those Great Cranes, when you used to walk down the bottom of the street where I stayed in East Belfast, they dominated the skyline. Belfast is a wonderful city with really warm friendly people and I Loved every second of my time there and look forward to going back soon 👍
Firstly brilliant tour/ guide to a city I’ve visited many times but never did my home work. Hoping to visit again with friends from Canada and one is in a wheelchair how much time is needed to have a reasonable visit including titanic tours. Thanks again John👍👍👍
Hi John, thank you very much for the feedback! We hope you can visit too in the future - if you were just visiting Belfast, we would say a week would be more than enough time to take in all the sights and experiences. If you were looking to explore more of Northern Ireland on your trip, it might be best to extend it. We have more videos on Belfast coming soon so would love if you subscribed and let us know how you get on! :)
@@ConnollyCove ah, where to begin! The Botanical Garden, the riverside area and the docks (I am interested in city / water interactions, as well as industrial and social history, though it is not my field of expertise); also, at the risk of sounding morbid, the political history and the art it inspired. :) I have this fantasy travel route that would combine Belfast with Northwestern England (Liverpool and Manchester). I am not sure whether the ferry service is the most practical way to go about it, but I would not mind the length at least.
I am so impressed."This touches home. And History is my favorite subject. "And surprising my DNA is part Irish. " And my ancestors is from Northern Ireland.
How beautiful! Your presentation of Belfast is amazing!! Loved it, truly enjoyed watching... Your video is awesome!! I'm Glad you found my channel and we got in touch with each other. Thank you for your visit on my channel! I'm here to support you! 👍 I already pushed the red button! Hope we'll stay connected :)
Great video! Helped me with my memories. But one thing to say is that one statue that you said it was built in 2007 probably was built before. I lived there in 2005 to 2006 and have pictures of this monument. Loved Belfast!
Hi there! Glad you enjoyed the video and that it brought back memories. We will need to check the dates for the statue and amend the video! Thank you :)
@@ConnollyCove Reminds me of that poster of the Titanic with the "Perceived Danger" of the iceberg visible above the surface of the water some distance away but the "Real Danger" of the same iceberg not visible under the surface mere feet away. Lol. 🤭
This was very informative, thank you for that. And all this coming from such a lovely lady. This makes me wanna go to Belfast for sure, but if every lady is as beautifull as you i am in big trouble :-)
@@ConnollyCoveI visited shortly after watching your video and found it to be a fascinating city. Though the countryside and coast were my favourite parts of Northern Ireland, I thought the Titanic Museum was fantastic.
What a fantastic video! I’ve been lucky enough to travel to Belfast several times ( I live on the west coast of Canada) but my Mum is from Belfast and I’ve travelled many times. My most recent time was last year and this video brings back so many memories. We hit mostly everything in this video. I can’t wait to visit again:)
If you want authentic Turkish Food (which is spicy and fresh); Go to Ventry Street in Belfast. There is a small restaurant there that is soooo good. Fast becoming an institution in Belfast: Turkey Street Food is so relaxed and calming. Most of all: delicious and the staff are friendly and unassuming.
I did the Black cab tour which was great. My daughter said this is because the Troubles is my favorite topic (and she is right) but I felt it was a great privilege to experience the Clonard chapel and the murals in these communities. Unfortunately there is still some concern over criminal activities in the Shankill area where shops are permanently closed because of extortion and threats of violence from the UVF and the UDA.
Love it! Lots to do in Belfast these days - there should be a whole section dedicated to the food! If any of your viewers are looking for food/restaurant inspiration, i've recently launched a Belfast-based food blog featuring recipes, features and interviews with local businesses. Hopefully there's something to inspire any upcoming trips to Belfast! www.keevaeats.com Thanks, Keeva
I backpacked to Belfast twenty years ago. The taxi driver at the wharf told me I should go somewhere nice and sunny on my holidays and why the fuck would I want to come here? Then he kicked me out of the cab. The town centre was nice though.
Sadly have never been to Sheffield ( yet ) But Belfast is a small city - handy to walk from place to place which is great. The city is being transformed now for students - incredible new accommodation right in the city itself! Really worth coming to see and get a feel for it. Easily then to travel around and explore Ireland. I might be bias - but would definitely recommend here for the friendliness and history - plus the current transformation....amazing times! Any questions - do let us know :-) Good luck with the tough choice!
Remove the question mark and replace with "great video". With a space between the two. The comment was meant for another tab. Great video. Thank you for the promotion of Belfast and NI. All sweet to the beat. Subscribed.....Mention people get blocked and talk dung once in a while without any bad intentions....
This is probably the best travelogue video on Belfast, although ONLY in terms of how many places of interest are shown. Unfortunately the narrative - for all its content - is appalling, There is such a thing as a word being used too much; in this 30-minute video the word "actually" was used no less than 81 times!! I know, because I counted them! Some of the information is incorrect, such as Victoria Square which dates a great many years before the date given; and such as the "Goliath" crane which I remember in 1967! "Nomadic" was a TENDER to "Titanic" not a passenger ship. The lady states that "an iceberg hit 'Titanic'," so that's a new one on me! Holywood was visited by King John in the 11th century, and is therefore is believed to be older than Carrickfergus by several hundred years! On that basis, Carrick' could not be "one of the oldest towns!" Looking at the text, anyone with a reasonably good education might be justified in thinking that it was written by an inattentive 10-year-old schoolchild, for the grammar and syntax would never be acceptable in any school of worth. It was obviously never scrutinised for errors, and never proofed prior to publication. I challenge anyone to read it and prove me wrong. Having said all that, I do hope that Cove Connolly produces more videos with equally as good content as this, but with much, much better and more accurate narration.
@@dmck7347 I have a very good life, and much of it spent trying to educate the morons (perhaps like yourself) who can't put put more than a few words together without spelling and grammar mistakes, but are still capable of passing false information in a home-made video; and there is no word in the English Language that qualifies for use 81 times in thirty minutes. There is nothing like a good education D McK; give it a try, as it's amazing the benefits it can bring!
@@TheBriceKennedy You label me "professor," yet stand to correct me, so that must make you a professor in extremis. It's rather curious though, that you don't point to an example of where my structure was wrong. Might I suggest that if you're going to make a point, be specific - just as I did! Since you imagine you must be some kind of expert in English Grammar, you really should know when and where to place your diacritical marks. Beyond these comments you presume too much, for I have no wish to "talk" with you!
@@TheBriceKennedy paramilitary shootings Daily,paramilitaries paintings all over the city walls,paramilitaries milking the tourists with the glorifying of their murderous actions..n oh Yea murdering paramilitaries in government..that ok for a start..

Unfortunately the narrative - for all its content - is appalling, There is such a thing as a word being used too much; in this 30-minute video the word "actually" was used no less than 81 times!! I know, because I counted them! Some of the information is incorrect, such as Victoria Square which dates a great many years before the date given; and such as the "Goliath" crane which I remember in 1967! "Nomadic" was a TENDER to "Titanic" not a passenger ship. The lady states that "an iceberg hit 'Titanic'," so that's a new one on me! Holywood was visited by King John in the 11th century, and is therefore is believed to be older than Carrickfergus by several hundred years! On that basis, Carrick' could not be "one of the oldest towns!"
Looking at the text, anyone with a reasonably good education might be justified in thinking that it was written by an inattentive 10-year-old schoolchild, for the grammar and syntax would never be acceptable in any school of worth. It was obviously never scrutinised for errors, and never proofed prior to publication. I challenge anyone to read it and prove me wrong.
Having said all that, I do hope that Cove Connolly produces more videos with equally as good content as this, but with much, much better and more accurate narration.
Charles Griffiths get a life
@@dmck7347 I have a very good life, and much of it spent trying to educate the morons (perhaps like yourself) who can't put put more than a few words together without spelling and grammar mistakes, but are still capable of passing false information in a home-made video; and there is no word in the English Language that qualifies for use 81 times in thirty minutes.
There is nothing like a good education D McK; give it a try, as it's amazing the benefits it can bring!
@@charlieindigo Learn proper sentence structure, "Professor", and then we'll talk.
@@TheBriceKennedy You label me "professor," yet stand to correct me, so that must make you a professor in extremis. It's rather curious though, that you don't point to an example of where my structure was wrong. Might I suggest that if you're going to make a point, be specific - just as I did!
Since you imagine you must be some kind of expert in English Grammar, you really should know when and where to place your diacritical marks.
Beyond these comments you presume too much, for I have no wish to "talk" with you!
@@charlieindigoThis is one of the things about comments sections - they breed rudeness.
Well done, but stop saying 'actually'.
lol yes thank you for the feedback...I do say that WAY TOO MUCH!!!! oh dear lol :-) Thanks for watching & commenting...the feedback was good too ;-)
@@ConnollyCove You're very gracious. Say "actually" as much as you like, I say. It doesn't bother this Yank.
Watch a riot..
It hasn't changed...
Try a comprehensive message that stands up to logic.
