What To Expect
Tortola
Sights such as a century-old prison along Main Street known as Her Majesty's Prison. This historic prison dates back to the late 1700s and is Road Town's oldest prison. The prison is nestled between the Road Town Method Church and St. George's Anglican Church and had come a long way since its days of prison when it stopped operating in prison in 1995 to being a police station, fire department, passport office and the future location of a new museum.
Then we head to the famous Sunday Morning Well, the location where the Proclamation of Emancipation of 1834 was read aloud to inform the public that slavery was abolished.
Stunning views over the Island are on offer as we through the Old Plantation to Josiah's Bay peak, followed by a trek up north to Fahie Hill to take more amazing photos of Road Town.
Then our tour takes us to the highest peak on the island at Sage Mountain to enjoy a 25-minute stop at Sage Mountain Bar and Restaurant as you sip on your complimentary drink.
You'll also get to spend time at the historic Mount Healthy National Park, a national site that houses the remains of a stone windmill from the island's sugar plantation era.
At the end of the tour we head to Tortola's west coast here you will find scenic views of its sister islands. Sure to take your breath away the are Norman Island and Dead Chest Island, an uninhabited national park that's a snorkeler's cove with places like Coral Gardens.
You'll also get to catch breathtaking views of the palm tree lined coastline of Peter Island and the lush mountain landscapes of Salt Island and Cooper Island. Conclude your tour by reflecting on your relaxing time in Tortola as you return to your pier.

Reviews
We only had 5 hours in Tortola and had never been to this island so we wanted a overview ...and our driver was great. Small bus and we went around and over the entire island...stopping at senic picture spots for pic time. He was able to answer all our questions and gave us a great historical perspective on the island' s development. Loved this tour..perfect for first timers.
Wir haben schöne Plätze mit super Aussichten angefahren. Randon hat alles toll erklärt. Erfrischende Getränk ,( Rumpunsch) gratis bekommen. Alles in allem empfehlenswert. Würden wir wieder machen
