Activity options vary depending on destination and operator. Activity level is determined by the range and intensity of activities you choose to participate in. Discuss with your Trip Planner which options are best for you.
Halifax, known as the City of Trees, features a walkable downtown anchored by Citadel Hill, a star-shaped fort and National Historic Site, topped with the iconic Halifax Town Clock. The city rises from the edge of Halifax Harbour, which remains an active international port. The Historic Properties area, once filled with wharves and warehouses, now houses restaurants, bars, galleries, and shops. Beyond the city, notable attractions include the reconstructed Fortress of Louisbourg, the scenic Lighthouse Route, and the coastal village of Peggy’s Cove.
A classic golden arc of sugary sand at South Friar’s Bay, Carambola is home to the island’s most luxurious beach clubs and restaurants. Umbrellas, loungers, and optional water sports abound for those so inclined. Otherwise, St. Kitts has other attractions, including a number of lovingly preserved plantation great houses, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Brimstone Hill Fortress, and a scenic narrow gauge sugarcane railway.
Little Bay’s charm lies in its intimate and unspoiled nature, offering a picturesque escape that’s as peaceful as it is beautiful. The bay is framed by lush, verdant hills that provide a stunning backdrop, while the warm, crystal-clear waters beckon for a refreshing dip or a leisurely swim. Whether you’re seeking solace in the sun, indulging in a beachside picnic, or exploring the vibrant marine life with a snorkel, Little Bay offers a perfect blend of relaxation and natural wonder.
This is the island’s yachting center, quieter and less crowded than the main port of Castries. You can visit the island’s “drive-in” volcano at Soufriere, view the iconic peaks of the Pitons or perhaps snorkel at Pigeon Island, one of Jacques Cousteau’s favorite dive spots.
Day 9: Bridgetown, Barbados | Disembark
1 Breakfast
Bridgetown, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a refined capital city that elegantly showcases its four centuries of British lineage. This charming island was initially inhabited by Amerindian communities 1,500 years ago, but in the 17th century, Barbados emerged as one of the most prolific sugarcane producers worldwide. At its zenith, the revenue from this sweet crop surpassed the combined income of all other British colonies.
A stroll through Bridgetown is a journey through time. From the statue of Admiral Horatio Nelson to the stately Parliament Buildings, the imposing St Michael's Cathedral and St Mary’s church, and the tranquil Jubilee Gardens, each step is steeped in history. Your exploration continues over the picturesque Chamberlain Bridge and along a scenic seaside boardwalk, leading you to an array of exquisite shoreline cafes and restaurants.
Witness the ancient Baobab trees in Queen's Park — the Caribbean's largest — standing as silent sentinels to the island's vibrant past. Take time to unwind on a peaceful beach, delve into the history of a plantation, encounter majestic sea turtles, and even indulge in a tasting at one of the island's famed rum distilleries.

Kate was great to work with in the planning stage. She was prompt, helpful, and efficient. Our tour guide, Edwin, was knowledgeable and passionate. We were very happy to have traveled with Adventure Life, it made the trip easy and a true pleasure. We could concentrate on enjoying the experience rather than the details of travel.
