Detailed itinerary
1
Tour guides and riders will assemble for a short briefing, obtain gear etc. First there is a history of the Pointe serpahine port along and the tour rides out into the main street along the water. The ride immediately become interesting as you take the views of some of the old historic buildings, see the local fisherman and taxi workers.
2
Along the ride is our Serenity Park, our harbor leading to our Marketplace. The ride will pause to allow you to walk through, get lost taking in all the aromas and tastes of local foods, oils, crafts and so much more. As the ride continues, we approach the beautiful Minor Basicilia, sitting ever so gracefully in the city's capital. A short distance away we venture to the Derek Walcott square named after our very own Nobel Laureate prize winner. The entire square centre is filled with relics and sites speaking of our French and British history. Feel free to laze, mingle, and take in the warm rays of sunshine. One of the final stops in the Castries capital is the La Place Carenage Duty Free Shopping centre.

The tour surely would not be complete without some sea and sand; the ride pauses at the Vigie Beach stretch. The ride begins again as we head back to our starting point.
