Description

We begin our adventure with a timely pickup from your Kingston hotel, setting the stage for an exhilarating visit to a renowned landmark in Jamaica's capital.

Following a 30-minute ride in our minibus, we will arrive at Port Royal, once established by the Spanish and recognized as the largest city in the Caribbean before a catastrophic earthquake in 1692 led to its decline. In its prime, it served as a base for the Royal Navy under British governance. Prepare to uncover its intriguing tales!

This locale is particularly famed as a pirate stronghold. Its pivotal position along the maritime routes connecting Spain and Panama made it a prime target for pirate activity. As we wander through the remnants of this once-thriving city, you will learn captivating stories surrounding its infamous pirates.

Our exploration will include a visit to the fortress of Port Royal, established in the 17th century, where numerous cannons still stand guard. Additionally, we will venture into the small museum at Fort Charles to gain further insights into the historical significance of the region.

For those interested in tasting local cuisine, we’ll make a stop at Gloria's restaurant for a delightful seafood experience (meal not included), and your reservation will be prepared in advance!

Once we’ve enjoyed our meal, we will return you to your hotel, concluding a memorable four-hour journey.
