This three-hour St. Kitts shore excursion combines Basseterre, Caribelle Batik at Romney Manor, and Timothy Hill, or the UNESCO-listed Brimstone Hill Fortress, depending on the option you choose. A guide such as Junie, SQ, Ace, or Jermon may lead your air-conditioned minibus, with port pickup, island commentary, and ship-return protection included.

“This was a pleasant 3 hour tour of St. Kitts with a well informed guide who told us of the history and present day activities. We saw breathtaking views of the coast as well as a visit to a batik factory and a closed sugar plantation once owned by the descendents of Thomas Jefferson. We elected not to go to the fort due to mobility issues and were transferred to another car to return to town after a drive to a photo viewpoint.”
