Shore Excursions

The BVI By Sky
APPROXIMATE DURATION: 3.5 HOURS

Passengers are picked up at the cruise ship pier and taken on a scenic 30 minute drive along the coastal road on the south side of Tortola to the airport. Upon arrival its time to get airborne!

Comfortably seated in the cabin of a fully equipped aircraft, passengers will have one of the most exhilarating experiences of their cruise as they fly above the breath-taking Virgin Islands as white sandy, palm-fringed beaches, coral reefs, coves and the turquoise, shimmering waters of the Sir Francis Drake Channel and Caribbean Sea stretch out below.

The friendly pilot will also be more than happy to share his local knowledge of the various sights and the history/traditions of the Islands. Approximate flight time: 45 minutes

Once back on the ground, passengers are taken on another spectacular drive along the curving Ridge Road to one of the highest points on Tortola, Sky World restaurant and observatory. Passengers will have a chance to stop and take pictures of the many fabulous views on the way. Once at Sky World, passengers can enjoy a thirst quenching soft drink whilst taking in the 360 degree panoramic view of Tortola and the surrounding Virgin Islands. All are welcome to view local art work displayed on the walls and to browse in the boutique of local crafts before heading back into Road Town.
