Things to know before visiting Northern Ireland
- Northern Ireland is part of the United Kingdom and you need to apply for a Standard Visitor Visa if you don’t live there.
- It is a small country but is best explored by car. Trains and buses do connect major cities and towns and you can book tours from Belfast to popular attractions.
- Despite ‘The Troubles’ of the past, Belfast is a very safe city to visit today.
- Don’t just visit the capital. I highly recommend escaping to the Causeway Coast for spectacular scenery!
- If you’re here for Game of Thrones you must download the Game of Thrones Filming Locations App.
