The experience
The walk covers 1.5 miles along Belfast's waterfront, moving from one stained glass window to the next. Each window represents a different house or faction from the series: House Stark, House Lannister, House Baratheon, House Targaryen, the White Walkers and the Iron Throne itself. The windows were unveiled one after each episode of the final season, so they capture the story's arc across all eight seasons. Your guide, someone who actually worked on set, stops at each one to explain what it depicts and share behind-the-scenes details from filming.
The trail ends at HMS Caroline, positioned next to Titanic Studios. This is where the show's most recognizable interiors were filmed: the Great Hall of the Red Keep, where the Iron Throne sat, and the other sets that defined the series for a decade. Wear sturdy walking shoes and dress for Belfast harbour weather, which can shift quickly. The route is fully accessible, with all surfaces and areas wheelchair accessible, and prams or strollers work for infants and small children.
