Ride the last remaining narrow-gauge railway in the Caribbean on a first-class double-decker carriage that loops the entire island of St. Kitts, gliding past sugarcane fields, volcanic peaks, and shimmering Atlantic and Caribbean coastlines.
What to expect
Board the gleaming heritage train at the Needsmust Station for a 30-mile journey that circumnavigates the entire island. The double-decker carriages feature open-air upper decks for unobstructed panoramas and air-conditioned lower lounges with complimentary cocktails. A live narrator shares stories of the island's sugar heritage, plantation history, and volcanic geology as you pass through villages, fields, and cliff-top coastal stretches. The section above the Atlantic coast is jaw-dropping — sea on both sides of the island simultaneously.
Good to know
The full railway journey takes approximately 3.5 hours. The station is close to the cruise pier and easily reached on foot or by a 5-minute taxi. Book directly on the railway's website ahead of time — popular with all visitors and carriages do fill up. Bring sunscreen for the open-air upper deck.
