Excellente journée Penser à un guide français sans un des passagers certaines informations n'auraient pas été comprises Penser au dessert pour les plus gourmands sachant que les plats étaient tous excellents Dans l'ensemble je recommande surtout à un public qui a des notions d'anglais
The experience
Welcome to Montserrat! Our tour takes you to the ruins of Plymouth, a town swallowed up by a volcanic eruption in 1995. Prepare to be transported to a forgotten world, where every relic tells a story of resilience in the heart of the wilderness.
Immerse yourself in history with our tour of the submerged village of Plymouth. After being collected at the ferry terminal, you’ll be taken to the south of the island, where the past and present meet. Stop off at the War Memorial to honour the courage of those who came before. Next, be enchanted by the Runaway Ghaut Spring – which might just make you want to return to Montserrat if the legend proves true... Your journey culminates with a visit to the buried town of Plymouth, frozen in time since the devastating volcanic eruption of 1995. After this immersive exploration, you’ll return to Little Bay via the north, stopping for a bite to eat at a local restaurant, where you can sample authentic island dishes. Round off your day at Little Bay harbour with a visit to a small local craft market. You can also enjoy traditional dances and/or relax on the beach. Treat yourself to a personalised experience with our private tour. After being collected at the ferry terminal, your day begins with a visit to the Runaway Ghaut Spring. Next, immerse yourself in the fascinating history of Plymouth, the sunken city, before heading to Richmond Hill and Garibaldi Hill for stunning panoramic views. After a well-deserved lunch break, you have the option to continue your adventure with some shopping or a visit to the peaceful gardens of Tan Ry Doon. Round off your day in style at the harbour, where you can soak up the local culture, discover authentic crafts, sway to the rhythm of traditional dances and relax on the beach.
