About this excursion

The St Kitts Scenic Railway tour is a narrow gauge railway that was originally built in the early 20th century to transport sugarcane from the island's plantation to the sugar factory.
Scenic Route: The train follows a 30-mile circular radius around the island providing passengers with picturesque villages, stunning views of lush rainforests, views of urban and rural areas, lush landscaping of farming, and the different livestock that seem to freely roam the island.
