Stroll through the city of Basseterre where you'll visit the site of the first company and walk through the old village of Irish Town.

We'll visit the National Museum, the Berkeley Memorial Clock, Piccadilly Circus, the courthouse, the Anglican Church and the Catholic Church. We take plenty of time to enjoy the local shops and a local drink.
