Willemstad Tourist Train
Our adventure begins at 10 am with a gathering at Fort Amsterdam, where we'll board the tourist train for a journey through the most captivating areas of Willemstad.
The train will then roll towards Scharloo, a neighborhood known for its charming houses dating back to the 1880s. A stop will be made in front of Bolo di Bruit, affectionately nicknamed "the wedding cake", which stands as one of the city's most photographed landmarks.
Continuing our journey, we will leave Scharloo and make our way to the impressive Pietermaai Cathedral, the largest church on the island. While you take in the architectural splendor, we'll share its fascinating history, revealing its connection to a World Heritage Site encompassing the historic district and the harbor of Willemstad.
Next, we will pass by Queen Wilhelmina Park, a venue for numerous cultural festivities, as well as the Waterfort Arches, a fortress that formerly housed the Barracks of William III of the Netherlands. This is a perfect moment to dive into the island's rich history!
After an engaging hour, our tour on the tourist train will conclude as we return to Fort Amsterdam.
