Antigua: Trolley Train City Tour & Beach Time

Overview

The 268 Trolley Train turns transportation into part of the Antigua experience.

The journey combines transportation, sightseeing and entertainment in one experience. Guests see key landmarks before continuing to beautiful Runaway Bay for 2–3 hours of beach time. On the return journey, the atmosphere becomes even more festive with lively Caribbean music, singing and island vibes all the way back to the cruise terminal. With 268 Trolley Train, getting there is part of the adventure!

Activity itinerary

Begin your adventure at the cruise port in St. John’s, where you’ll climb aboard the colorful 268 Trolley Train and set off on a relaxed sightseeing drive through Antigua’s historic capital on your way to Runaway Bay. As the trolley travels through St. John’s, your guide will point out several of the city’s most important landmarks while sharing interesting stories about Antigua and Barbuda’s history, culture, and people. Look out for the Museum of Antigua and Barbuda, housed in the historic colonial courthouse, and the impressive St. John’s Anglican Cathedral, one of the most recognizable landmarks overlooking the capital. Continue past the Cenotaph and War Memorial, honoring the Antiguans and Barbudans who served and sacrificed during times of war. Pass the historic Antigua Prison, dating from 1735, and the Antigua Recreation Ground, one of the country’s most celebrated sporting venues. Along the route, see Government House, the official residence of the Governor-General of Antigua and Barbuda and an important part of the nation’s architectural, governmental, and political heritage. Then, trade the city for the Caribbean. Leaving St. John’s behind, sit back and enjoy the changing scenery as the 268 Trolley Train makes its way toward beautiful Runaway Bay and Mystic Restaurant & Bar. Once at Runaway Bay, enjoy approximately 2 to 3 hours of free time to experience Antigua at your own pace. Take a refreshing swim in the Caribbean Sea, relax on the beach, soak up the sunshine, capture some memorable photographs, or enjoy food and refreshments available at Mystic Restaurant & Bar. Return to the Cruise Port – Caribbean Style! When it’s time to return to the cruise port, say goodbye to Antigua’s beautiful turquoise waters and reboard the 268 Trolley Train for a fun-filled ride back to the cruise terminal. But the experience isn’t over yet! Enjoy lively Caribbean music as you make your way back to the ship. Feel the island rhythm, let your hair down, sing along, and join in the fun and entertainment. It’s the perfect way to end your Antigua adventure—with great music, great vibes, and wonderful memories! Your tour may be ending, but the Antigua vibes continue all the way back to your ship!
