This excursion provides all the elements for a perfect day in paradise. Experience spectacular views, world famous Magens Bay Beach, historical locations and shopping.
Everything you'd want to, and should experience in St. Thomas, all conveniently packed into one complete tour - a cornucopia of beaches, spectacular down island views, historical locations and ultimate shopping experiences encompassing all the best highlights of the U. S. Virgin Islands' most popular island.
This tour provides all the elements for a perfect day in paradise. Begin with a scenic ride along Skyline Drive offering breathtaking views of Charlotte Amalie Harbor, the Caribbean Sea, the British Virgin Islands and Magens Bay, rated by many travel magazines as one of the top ten beaches in the world.
At Drake's Seat, enjoy a great photo stop of these spectacular views before continuing down to the heart-shaped beach and crystalline waters at Magens Bay for two hours of sun, swimming and fun. Continue on to the Colonial shopping district, home of world famous Blackbeard's Castle (a former Danish military tower) in the revitalized Kongens (King's) Quarter Historic Park, dubbed "the Williamsburg of the Caribbean", and step back into the age of seafaring trade at the Danish West Indian port town of Charlotte Amalie.
During the first guided part of your tour, learn stories from the island's past of global traders, Caribbean pirates, the impacts of slavery, and life in a vibrant West Indian port city as you visit world-class heritage sites and National Landmark Properties dating back to the late 1600s.
Continue for a self-guided tour and visit several restored colonial manor houses and view the ruins of the old Magens-McDougal Estate, all set on approximately five acres of lush tropical grounds. Relax in the sun and enjoy any of the delightful swimming pools (changing facilities are available). As you pass the famous 99 Steps, step inside Hotel 1829 and view the spectacular Caribbean World Amber Waterfall, the largest amber waterfall in the world, cascading two stories down and comprised of more than 12,000 amber stones.
From there it's just a short walk to Main Street where you'll find the cruise line's recommended stores for the greatest duty-free shopping in the Caribbean. When you're ready to head back to the ship, hop on your pre-arranged transportation back to the ship. cheaters caught online click here
