Beautiful and eerie gaol. Though I feel that it's quite a short tour. I was hoping to get further inside the tunnel or on the upper levels of the prison.  Some of the wings were closed for some reason when we visited too. It is a self-guided tour so you can explore at your own pace.  Parking is free and very spacious. This museum is still worth the visit. I found it very interesting and interactive. They are offering a paranormal investigation tour as well as an event if you're into those.
Very interesting to just wander round this old jail that was still in use up to the mid 1980's. The tour can be done at your leisure as there is no tour guide to rush you round from A to B. I gave this 4 stars as some of the interactive videos were not working. Technical glitches can happen. That aside there is plenty of interesting facts to learn along the tour which took us about 2 hours comfortably to complete. Downstairs there is the Cuffs bar and restaurant where you can dine in on pub grub or main meals and have soft drinks, alcohol or tea and coffee. Restaurant prices are decent and won't cost too much. The tour price is very reasonable also. Make sure and pick up your map and wristband when you arrive. Parking is signposted and is accessible at the rear of the gaol.
I can honestly say this is my favorite tourist attraction in Belfast. Being more of a blue collar town your not going to get the most extravagant castles or opulent cathedrals, but man they sure no how to make an awesome looking prison. Well worth the visit
Purchased tickets in advance for out visit to Crumlin Road. The museum is self tour and you are in no rush to walk around the museum, inside and out. The site is very interesting and informative about its history. Worth a visit....and the city tour bus stops right outside so handy for getting back to the city center.
Crumlin Rd Gaol Tour! If you are ever in Belfast make sure you tour the Crumlin Road Gaol. There is so much history to be revealed there and the tour is very interactive. You can easily spend half a day with the family at this location. Belfast itself is very enjoyable with lots of shopping and lovely architecture.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo wait
Good quality educational venue. The use of an old prison to explain the history of northern ireland to all generations is well presented. The parking for the visit was free and entry price was reduced with online booking. There are toilets, gift shop and food outlet on site.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Wonderful visit, but wish we could go up into the gaol to see other levels. Not very interactive. The condemned cell didnt work. There's a lot of info here and you can see a variety of different areas. Very well maintained.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure
We went to see a Johnny Cash Tribute act here . Was absolutely amazing. Only gripe was there wasn't enough chairs for our group to all sit together. Our own fault I suppose for not arriving earlier . Done the whole tour thing at another time. It was very good too , a lot of history and information told by the guide. Only the paranormal fright night to do but don't feel brave enough lol .
Beware the parking! Make sure you don't park on the street but go to the designated parking area to avoid a ticket. Great, historic, tragic jail. Signs, video and audio all along the way. Move at your own pace. Cafe on site, but closed when we were there. Gift shop with food.
Bought our tickets online, but as it was December, it was very quiet. There are no actual staff anywhere along the route, just arrows to follow. A very cheesy, poorly acted video starts the tour. Most cells house a push button display, several that did not work. The last room in the jail was the best but I won't give any spoilers. Then outside, following arrows again, then the tour ends in the gift shop, which was closed, so we had to improvise and find our own way out.
