Before you travel
Good to know about Belfast Port.
Getting to your terminal
We drop at the Stena ferry terminals and the cruise berth. Cruise check-in about three hours prior; Stena ferry check-in closes 45–60 minutes before — your driver aims the arrival at the open of check-in, not the crush before the gates close.
When to book
Cruise turnaround days and summer sailings sell out fast — book 48–72 hours ahead to secure an MPV or van for the luggage.
Luggage on embarkation day
Porters for cruise; ferry luggage self-carried. Our estates and MPVs take a full cruise luggage set, so a fortnight’s cases travel in one car.
The return collection
Group-timed for cruise, tracked for ferry arrivals. No standing on the quay wondering where the car is.
Tolls & charges included
Every road toll and pickup fee is built into the price we quote. What you agree is what you pay.
Step-free & assistance
Step-free — tell us if anyone needs a hand and the driver meets you at the most convenient point.
Getting to and from Belfast Port
Belfast Harbour welcomes cruise ships and their thousands of passengers through stena ferries · cruise terminal, and the end of a voyage is exactly the wrong moment to negotiate transport. Disembarkation is staggered, luggage arrives in waves, and the taxi queue outside grows faster than it moves. A pre-booked chauffeur removes all of it: your driver is at the terminal before you clear the gangway, tracking the ship rather than the clock.
The booking works the way it should. The price is agreed in full before you travel, with tolls and pickup fees inside it. Delays are absorbed automatically — we watch the sailing and move the pickup to match, with 15 minutes of complimentary waiting on top. Luggage is handled, child seats on request (£8 each), and cancellation costs nothing up to 24 hours before pickup.
Transfers from Belfast Port are quoted individually and confirmed before you commit — every class from a saloon to a 8-seat van, typically 10–20 min to belfast, door to door with no meter running.
