Titanic Experience Cobh

We enjoyed this experience. Just big enough to be enough! A well done walking tour with a very good lady guide giving great information in a manner befitting of the occasion. We bought timed tickets in advance and the venue was an easy walk from the cruise ship. Cobh (pronounced Cove) was very nice, very pretty clean and friendly. Lots of inviting pubs and restaurants all a short walk from the cruise ship. Lovely

We purchased timed tickets in advance for this experience. It was worth a visit. The first half of the tour is guided with lots of good information. The second half is self-guided with even more information. It was a neat experience to be in the same spot that some of our distant relatives were in when they boarded here for America. We also got to find more information on the people from our family who boarded the boat here. Definitely recommend this tour. I have not visited the museum in Belfast but two of my family members did. They liked that this experience was completely different than the one in Belfast. They thought it was cool to have done both.

Absolutely amazing experience! The staff and managers were to notch and even though we had a scheduling issue with our visit, they honored or tickets even when they didn't have to. Our 6 year old Titanic super Fan still be forever grateful! Amazing tour and guides, 💯% recommend!!!

I really liked it! The girl who gave the tour and told us everything..., with such soul - super! It was as if she transferred us to that time. I recommend everyone who comes to Cobh to visit this museum

An interesting place to visit and you get to walk along the same path those who tragically sailed the Titanic maiden voyage. There is also a small informative exhibition at the end as well as a mock up of one of the first class cabins.

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Guided tour in small groups. Interactive sections, well styled sections and video clips. Great little experience. Takes about an hour in total. Booking was essential to get the right time, especially during high season when the cruise boats are in it seems.

Worth a visit. Good tour and very interesting. Not sure about linking everyone with a person who was on the Titanic and checking at the end of the tour whether you/they survived or perished 🤔

Worth a look. Could do with an update and modernisation. Tour guide was sound and the prices in the gift shop were actually reasonable. You can go in the gift shop even if you didn’t do the tour.

This was a really great little experience. The folks are so friendly at check-in and the gift shop was very inclusive. The tour was very informative and they were a lot of interactive activities at the end of the tour. I almost was disappointed when the tour was as I could've stayed there much longer. So much in depth detail to this tragedy. I definitely recommend this tour if you're in town.

Initially, I did not think I would care for it, but it was very interesting and I'm glad we went. We were all given a name and at the end, you find out whether or not your person survived and all of their real information. I did not realize this was some of the last passengers left. It was very interesting. You learn how the rich vs the poor lived on the Titanic and it was very eye-opening. Highly recommend.

A very informative tour. The guides are wonderful and to look at artifacts from the times with the names of actual people associated really makes a bigger impact than any book or film As an aside, they give you a mock boarding pass with a name on it that you can look up at the end. I was already looking for the name of a friend's great aunt who survived The name they gave me turned out to be her unlucky companion who did not survive

This felt like a money grab tourist trap. Don't get me wrong, the premise is fantastic, the location and history is ideal.... Poor execution, especially the guided part. It was rushed from room to room with little to no time to take it in, read the extra info or ask questions. There are already lots of pre recorded videos, so the live guide detracted and make me feel like cattle. I was SO EXCITED to check out the cabins, get a real feel/experience and find out if my passenger lived. (They give you a ticket of a real person, but really it was a gimmick, you don't really do much with it. I expected it to be more interactive like the Spy Museum or Holocaust Museum was) There really isn't anything to experience during our "experience" Also, why isn't there a replica of the second class cabin?! They also had basically NO artifacts in their "collection" and everyone in our group dies (not unexpected.... But just added to the downer feeling) Overall I'd say skip this unless it's raining. Cobh has much better options and ways to learn about the Titanic.

You are very welcome to this engaging museum with replicas of living quarters, examples of how different classes fared, and firsthand accounts of seeing the vessel. Cobh was the last stop of the Titanic, picking up hundreds of Irish immigrants before sailing off into history.

The Titanic Experience is a fun and live re-enactment, of what it must of felt like to be on the doomed luxury liner back in 1912. I have to admit, it felt claustrophobic to us and we were in 1st Class. The tour ran us €7.50 each (Seniors) and it was a real eye opener. It lasts about an hour and besides the re-enactors (photos) giving you their take on life in the early last century, their is an museum you can stop in before you leave. We enjoyed ourselves and would say it's a must stop if you are spending the day in Cobh. We would also recommend St Coleman's up the hill and the Cobh Heritage exhibit (review), along with any of the pubs (review) across the square. Enjoy!

Titanic experience was so much fun seeing the actual pieces from the titanic and the dock that people boarded the titanic from or what's left of it anyway and there's a really fun restaurant that served fun cocktails.

Best Seafood chowder in Ireland. Great place! The city of Cobh is a great place to visit with tons of history.

I'm glad we stopped by this place. The first 30 minutes, you're led into different rooms by a guide. After that you're left on your own to explore the remaining exhibits. This building is an original White Star building, where passengers of the Titanic boarded tender boats to get on the Titanic, which was anchored in the harbor. The most interesting story I heard was of Reverend Browne, who took most of the pictures of life on the Titanic, that we know today. At the back of the building, is the original pier the Passengers used to board the tenders for the Titanic. The ticket that is given to you, has a name of a passenger that boarded in Cobh (Queenstown back then), and in the last exhibit room, you find out if they lived, or died.

Sometime in April of 1912... JACK: Shhhhh... Gimme your hand. Now close your eyes, go on. Now step up. Now hold on to the railing. Keep your eyes closed, don't peek. ROSE: I'm not. JACK: Step up on the railing. Hold on, hold on. Keep your eyes closed. Do you trust me? ROSE: I trust you. JACK: All right. Open your eyes. ROSE: [gasp] I'm flying, Jack! Much to wife's embarrassment, of all the straight men on this planet, I've probably seen this movie more times than any other. Luckily the wife and I got a free private tour (not telling how!) saving us 9.50euro($13) each. The charming and knowledgeable tour guide walked us through the original building as if we were passengers boarding. We got to see the boarding areas, models of the sitting rooms, bedrooms, some simulations, hear some interesting stories, and see some artifacts at the end. All good entertaining stuff, though from the perspective a paying patron, I wish there was more to this "experience". Or maybe I'm just too much of a die hard Titanic Fan was craving more.

I was a little surprised at how well this was done. It takes about a half hour to do the tour. To help get you engaged in the story you a get assigned a character who was one of the passengers who got on the Titanic at Cobh/Queenstown, which was the Titanic's last stop before landing at the bottom of the Atlantic. Cobh itself is a very attractive town, so it is definitely with a visit if you are in the area

We've been to a number of Titanic Experiences - mostly in the U.S. This one was "just okay" for the most part. What made it different however was that it was "more personal" to the area as Cobh was the last Port of Call the Titanic made, picking up 123 passengers here before it's fateful demise. If you've never done a Titanic Experience before, this is worth doing ($9 Euro per adult). If you've done one before, you might chose to skip this one unless you wish to learn about the local Cobh connection to the Titanic.

When you walk in you are greeted by a very pleasant woman at the ticket office where you will pay and get a passenger's ticket with the name of a real passenger that was on the Titanic. The "Titanic Experience" is about 30 minutes. At the end of the tour you go into a room where you can explore more about the Titanic and see if the passenger you are survived but more interesting it also tells you about the passengers life. I liked this tour. Note: there are no artifacts here and don't think you'll find them in Belfast either. They are at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas. There are over 250 authentic artifacts there. Good excuse to visit Vegas!

I was attending this because my partner wanted to go. I wasn't feeling good while going through the exhibit. But I was totally impressed by how much information they had on the topic. Super friendly and great story tellers about the history of the Titanic. Our tour lasted about 40-45 minutes and could have stayed even longer. If I end up going through this area again I'll definitely hit this place up again. Thanks for having us and bringing this historic event to life!

This is a very small museum that is worth the price of admission but only talks about the very narrow sliver of history that pertains to this specific building. I recommend this museum as a companion piece to the Belfast Museum. Both have exhibits the other does not.

Stopped off in Cobh on the way to Blarney Castle on a tour with Paddywagon Tours. This is a very cool piece of history. This is the original location of the White Star Line Ticket Office. This is the location for the final boarding of the RMS Titanic. You get to see what is left of the original pier which is in definite need of repair. It was nice to take a picture by the window that you can see in the movie and in pictures from that time in history. It's a great experience to learn more about the Titanic, Queenstown(Cobh), and the RMS Carpathia. What a tragedy. I like how they give you a ticket of one of the 123 who boarded here and you can see if the person survived. I thought it was a great tour with the guide and clips showing the story. Great experience!

A small museum but its cute. This was the last stop before the Titanic set sail. Cobh is a smaller town that has VERY steep roads to get to this museum. If you have the time and can stop, you'll enjoy the history lesson on the titanic. You're given a passenger and at the end of the tour, you find out if they made it.

this is a good place for titanic fans you can get close to the titanic ship history as it is a great lot of history too the ships tragic short life but it gives the titanic fans a good lot of information as well

Such a fun and interesting experience. Being a lover of the whole Titanic story, I found this town and the museum + tour very entertaining (and emotional). It was cool to learn real life stories about the passengers and get a glimpse into what the inside really looked like. Tragic yet fascinating. Highly recommend checking this out, along with the restaurant next door.

Small exhibit but I thoroughly enjoyed the short tour and explanations. We arrived just before 5 and there was a tour at 515. They allowed us to view the exhibit first before the tour while we were waiting for it to start which was super helpful. The museum was open until 6 but I think the last tour might have been at 5:30. I'd recommend and it was neat to see the actual dock that the last people left to go catch their supposedly boat to a new life. I would recommend and the church at the top of Cobh it stunning! as well. Appeared to be plenty of B&B's as well to stay but we continued onto Cork to partake in the wonderful cuisine there. We ate at the Market Lane Restaurant in Cork and it was good too.

It is a very small museum telling you the story of Titanic and passengers on board the Titanic but it was very interesting. The museum is also partly the original building of where the last passengers for the Titanic got on from. You can also stand outside where third class passengers had to line up. At the beginning you are handed a card with a passengers name on it and what class they came from. You can read interesting facts, listen to interesting commentary, see some original Titanic objects, see old photos, models of Titanic, see a replica of what a room for low class and high class passengers would of looked like etc. At the end of the museum tour you can see if your passenger on your card you was handed at beginning was saved or sadly died. If they was one of the lucky ones to of been saved you can read more info on what else happened to him / her. There is also a piece of art work with butterflies and each butterfly represents one of the passengers that sadly died in the tragic sinking. I feel I learnt a lot more from this tour than what I have seen on TV from unusual facts like there was 13 honeymoon couples on board Titanic but I won't let on anymore interesting facts otherwise will spoil your tour if you go along to the experience. The guide of the tour was also very informative, friendly and a pleasure to listen to. Worth a visit.

Well worth a visit if you are in Cobh. Tells the story of the last passengers to board the Titanic and their fates.

Loved the experience. My ticket person survived. Hearing about her life was so cool. I recommend that everyone can enjoy. Don't miss this
