Historic Walking Tour and Tour of Fort Christian
- Varighet: 3 Timer (ca.)
- Produktkode: PAJUG2
Every walking tour is unique as your guide winds you through the streets, alleyways and secret gardens of Charlotte Amalie.
The tour will include admission and access to Fort Christian. On occasion, the fort is closed for island holidays.
(In that event we will refund you the admission fee and replace the tour of the fort with another spot. Granted, nothing will be as awesome as Fort Christian but we will do our darndest!)
Your tour may include visits to famous locations such as:
- Fort Christian
- Blackbeard’s Castle (spoiler alert – not really Blackbeard’s or a Castle, but still awesome)
- 99 Steps
- One of the oldest Jewish Synagogues in the Western Hemisphere
- The Estate of General Santa Anna
- A incredibly preserved former Slave Quarters
- Churches dating back hundreds of years
WALKING TOUR INCLUDES:
2-3 hour guided, historic tour
Admission to Fort Christian (ordinarily it would be $10)
An engaging guide that will pretty much know everything about everything St. Thomas and the Caribbean
Bottles of water throughout the tour
Depending on the season, you might get to sample island fruits hanging from trees (mangos and tamarinds are our favorites)
A little exercise (the step streets work those glutes)
Hugs – unlimited
WHERE TO MEET:
In front of Fort Christian (it’s a huge red fort that looks like it was built in the 1600s). If you’re driving, you’ll park in the Fort Christian Parking lot. (They charge $2/hr.) If you’re coming via taxi, tell them to drop you “in front of Fort Christian”. We'll meet there to check-in and then head straight inside the fort to start the tour.
WHAT TO BRING:
Sunblock
An umbrella if you like (it occasionally rains here in the islands but seldom for more than 10 minutes at a time)
A bottle of water (we provide water throughout the tour but it’s safe to bring backup)
