The programme

We will begin our excursion on board our air conditioned vehicle to visit the most beautiful areas of the island of St. Kitts, starting from the historic Basseterre, a fascinating colonial city which dates back to the 17th Century, founded by the French in 1627 and presently the capital of St. Kitts and Nevis.
After discovering the capital, you will be driven to Palm Court Gardens in Fortlands. Tour the beautiful gardens, admire our sister island, Nevis, in the distance, be entranced by the items in the Local Creations Gift Shop. A wide variety of locally crafted items are available on display and for sale.
We will admire the most important areas, pas sing near to the area of Greenlands, the residence of the General Governor (building constructed in 1834, firstly as the residence of a rich trader, to then become headquarters to the Archdeacon in 1842) as well as other interesting attractions which would be missed by hasty visitors.
We will depart from Basseterre and head west to Mattingley Heights where we will enjoy a spectacular view of the port basin of Basseterre and the surrounding mountains.
We will take the recently constructed F.T.Williams and Kim Collins highways, which run alongside aristocratic houses, the Royal St. Kitts Golf Club golf course and the Frigate Bay resort, one of the most beautiful beaches on St. Kitts which also boasts the most luxurious apartments on the island. We will stop at Timothy Hill, arguably the most popular photo stop on the island: on the one side, we have a complete view over Frigate Bay, on the other side, the marvellous point at which the Caribbean coast and Atlantic coast of the island are at their closest.
We will then take the road into the residential area of Bird Rock which takes us directly back to the ship.
