“Es war nett. Wer noch erwartet Zuckerrohrplantagen zu sehen wird enttäuscht, da es keine mehr gibt. Der Zug fährt durch die Gegend. Mehr gibt es nicht zu sagen. 1h Transport mit dem Bus und 2 h mit dem Zug.”

“It wasn't the best experience,we got picked up by our tour guide, who was very informative but the actual train ride wasn't the best way to see St Kitts. The train doesn't stop to view anything so over an hour sitting with not much to see. Friends went on the bus tours which seemed better to see St kitts. The train in my opinion was over priced and not the best value for money.”

★★★★★★★★★★3.3 · 20 reviews · 3 hours · from $120Best value

You’ll ride 30 miles on St. Kitts’ narrow-gauge sugar railway, choosing open-air upper-deck views or air-conditioned seating. Live Caribbean music, English commentary, daiquiris, fruit punch, cruise-port pickup, and a bus transfer are included. Allow extra patience for possible delays.

“The tour was fantastic but on arrival we were not booked in on the 9:00 visit as were not recognised on any of the days tours. It took a considerable amount of complaining and begging to access the 12:00 trip. I am very disappointed , to put it mildly, the tour operators seem to prioritise bookings from the cruise lines at the expense of those that book independently via your website and are "bumped" to make room for cruise bookings. Very disappointing to travel 4,200 miles with a confirmed booking that was not honoured.”
