What makes Best of Port of Spain Tour a unique experience ?
You will be walking through a small portion of downtown Port of Spain where the new mixes with the old (19th-century chic mixing with 21st-century functionality). Along the way, you will hear about some of the fascinating historical facts about this city, including where the Abolition of Slavery Act was read in 1834.
Your next segment of this tour takes you to the uptown part of Port of Spain where you will be driven even deeper into our history via 19th Century buildings (known as the Magnificent 7), the Botanic Gardens and the Queen's Park Savannah; said to be one of the world's largest roundabouts.
