This tour combines the highlights of Trinidad's capital city with a visit to the cool, peaceful setting of the Botanic Gardens and the serene atmosphere of the Mount St Benedict Monastery.
During a panoramic drive, you will pass seven magnificent mansions overlooking the glorious Queen's Park Savannah -- the city's largest park. Your guide will also point out other architectural and historic monuments.
At the Botanic Gardens, situated next to the President's House, take a short stroll in the shade of a cool stand of exotic trees and tropical flowers.
The Lady Young Lookout offers a fantastic panoramic view back to Port of Spain.
Spiritual, healing, beautiful -- these are just a few words that come to mind at the Mount St Benedict Monastery, 800 feet above sea level. Wander through the picturesque monastery founded in 1912 and into the chapel -- a glimpse of cultural and historical perspective surrounding the monks who have lived, for decades, a life of quiet contemplation.
Relax over a complimentary beverage and homemade bread before your return drive to the pier.
