Escape into the Heart of St Lucia
Get set for the most memorable tour of St Lucia, which starts in north in the island capital, Castries, and its historic center. Hear the calypso beat of local musicians in Derek Walcott Square, named after the St Lucia-born Poet Laureate, as you catch a glimpse of the “Massav”, a Samaan tree reputed to be more than 400 years old. Your whistle-stop tour of Castries will also include the landmark Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception while your guide tells of St Lucia’s turbulent history and how Britain and France fought over this jewel for hundreds of years.
Savor for a moment the marvelous views from the summit of Morne Fortune where historic Government House, once the seat of colonial power, stands. But there’s no time to waste because there’s lots more still to see and things to do in St Lucia before your day is done.
