Titanic Vr Tour
Rosella Brain
RMS Titanic, Inc. is an affiliate of the company and has conducted eight research and recovery expeditions to Titanic. The recovered artifacts have been conserved and are continuously monitored and maintained so they can be displayed in the Exhibitions. In total, RMS Titanic, Inc. has recovered 5,500 artifacts from the wreck site.
The whole exhibit was very interesting and it was presented in a fantastic way. There was a lot of great information with each artifact. It is a lot of reading and the information helped to understand more about this historical event. Some of the areas are very impressive in the way they are set up. It was well worth it!
We attended the Titanic Experience dinner theater and it was excellent! The food was excellent and the show was entertaining and interactive. It was done in such a way that you got a sense of what the night was like. It was such a great experience!
It is very worth it! A fascinating museum!! Very beautiful and well mounted. The interaction throughout the tour with actors representing real passengers on the ship make a big difference with other museums. Mainly Molly, she is amazing! Thanks to her you will never forget this visit!
Everything was ready for us when we arrived, including our tour guide, "Miss Dorothy Gibson", who was outstanding! It was all so interesting, and she most definitely kept our attention with all her info as well as some fun trivia. The whole group had a great time. Well worth the time and money! Thank you, Miss Dorothy!

We booked the 9 Day Tour. The train travel and coaches were comfortable and on time. The tour hosts were friendly and knowledgeable. All of the sites we stopped at met our expectations [...] Brian Duggan was our main guide and was very knowledgeable and kept us well informed. He was entertaining, had a sense of humour and did a great job managing the diverse group. When booking it was indicated it was for the independent traveller and that was the case. We had a lot of free time to do our own thing which was ideal for us.
Thank you so much for the tour of Ireland. You really brought to life the issues, challanges, myths as well as the culture of Ireland. Words alone cannot express our thanks for all that you did for us during our time with you. We especially enjoyed the Irish Ceili and the Celtic Nights Show. It was nice of you to introduce me to Shaun and Matt before the show.
We couldn't believe how amazing Railtour Ireland and its people are! Wow! Just simply wow! We were treated so well we felt like royalty! From booking to pick ups, tour guides... amazing! Norman, Pat and Alan, you rock! Gerard who drove us from Killarney to Limerick; Honestly man, can we employ you? You're amazing! Knowledgeable, patient, calm all rolled up in one! Brendan, our dear guide! How do you do it? How can you be so prepared yet so funny at the same time! You have our admiration and heartfelt gratitude! John, who drove us while Brendan was the guide, you're epic! Fantastic! No other way to describe you! Michael at Deros - thank you for the amazing time, the views, the photography breaks, the dining suggestion! You are one incredible man!! Thanks ever so much guys!!!
Visitor Attraction Admissions Included: Blarney Castle and Gardens, Cobh Heritage Centre, Bunratty Castle and Folk Park, the Cliffs of Moher Visitor Experience, Dn Aonghasa, the Giant's Causeway, Belfast Hop-on-Hop-off City Bus Tour & Titanic Visitor Centre.
We now enter the Curragh of Kildare, which soon comes into view on both sides of the line. The Curragh (pronounced: Curra) is famous for its racecourse, home of the Irish Derby. At this time of the morning you are likely to see some of Ireland's finest bloodstock being put through their paces. The Curragh is also the headquarters of the Irish army and their buildings can be seen in the distance to the east.
We arrive into Cork Kent Station for 09:35 and we transfer to our Railtours Ireland tour coach, passing through Cork City en route to Blarney Village and historic Blarney Castle & Gardens, built in 1446 by Dermot McCarthy. You will have time to kiss the famous stone, which is said to bestow the gift of eternal eloquence on those lucky enough to do so. There is also time for shopping and lunch at Blarney and we recommend that you have lunch there, as this will be the only opportunity during the day to have a substantial meal.
Depart Cbh by train to Killarney, where the rest of the evening is free. There is a large selection of cafs, restaurants and bars in Killarney town as well as many opportunities for live traditional Irish music and entertainment.
We will make a stop at the Kerry Bog Village Museum, which gives people an insight into how people lived and worked in rural Ireland in the 18th century. The village is the only one of its kind in Europe. Later on the approach to Waterville there are views (weather permitting) of the Skellig Rocks (islands), where Star Wars 'The Force Awakens' was recently filmed.
An essential part of any visit to Ireland, this tour circles the magnificent MacGillycuddy Reeks and runs through its many passes and valleys along the shores of Dingle Bay and Kenmare Bay. There is an unspoilt nature to Ireland's most beautiful region and the Ring of Kerry provides many unforgettable memories as it passes through the many picturesque villages such as Glenbeigh, Waterville and Sneem and returns via Ladies View, the famous Lakes of Killarney and through the Oakwoods of Killarney's magnificent National Park.
After a brief city tour we travel onto Bunratty Castle and Folk Park. The castle was completed in 1425 and, after many years of neglect, has been restored to its former glory. There is also a folk park here which you will have time to explore.
At the end of the day the coach will set you down at Eyre Square, in the centre of Galway City, adjacent to your hotel (and the railway station). You will be directed to your hotel by your host and your evening is free in Galway.
Depart Galway City for transfer to Inis Mr, the largest of the three Aran Islands. Irish is the spoken language on the Aran Islands, although the locals will be more than happy to speak to you in English. For many, the highlight of the tour is the formidable pre-Christian fort of Dn Aonghasa, with spectacular sea-cliffs on the western side and unspoilt views of the Atlantic Ocean. Transfer times may vary seasonly.
After your tour of Inis Mr you will be transferred back to Galway Station. Upon arriving at Galway Station please present your Railtours Ireland ticket and travel pack at the ticket barrier and you will be directed to your reserved seats on the train, where your host will be waiting for you.
At Maam Cross, the "Connemara Crossroads", there is a replica of the cottage used in the 1950s John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara film The Quiet Man, which was filmed here. From Maam Cross, our tour heads out to Leenane, Kylemore Abbey and Letterfrack, in the shadow of purple mountains rolling down to blue and green rocky valleys, reflecting the rich and varied colours of Connemara.
Leaving Belfast we take the coast road north from here. We continue on passing the coastal villages of Glenariff, Cushendall and Cushendun. There are stunning views of the sea to the right and the mountains or the Glens of Antrim to the left. You can even glimpse the Scottish coast on a clear day.

We'll be crusing to St. John and Halifax next August. In St. John we'll probably so the St. Martin / Bay of Fundy tour offered by the ship there, so will already be visiting a fishing village / doing a little walk on the ocean floor.
In Halifx on our own we plan to visit the Maritime museum, and due to our great interest in Titanic history are planning on doing the Grayline Titanic cemetary tour. And then we'll just look around on our own with other time. Other tours I saw that do the Titanic cemetary do way more things too like Peggy's Cove, etc.and are serveral hours in length. Having done a fishing village tour, etc. for about three hours the previous day, we are really just interested in a Titanic graveyard tour.
I'd love to hear from anyone else has done any Grayline tours in Halifax (Titanic cemetary or other) and what they thought?? In general I know Grayline has a good reputation and is also for here the only place I found online that offers a tour that is just the Titanic cemetary. It sounds as if Grayline caters more to people visiting Halifax vs. cruise passangers (pick up people at hotels), but it would be easy for us to meet them by the Maritime museum.
