The largest city in the U.S. Virgin Islands is a popular shopping center, home to 20,000 people, upscale shops, ecotours and underwater safaris. This former haunt of pirate ships now hosts millions of cruise passengers every year. Look beyond the boutiques and discover historic sights such as the bright red, 17th-century Fort Christian, the graceful green Legislature Building, the 1793 brick Lutheran Church and the taxing 99 steps stairway.

Toured downtown today with “Doc”. He knows his stuff & makes learning about St Thomas interesting by telling stories and not just giving facts. I forgot to get a photo of us with him. He’s a treasure trove of information and the trust is lucky to have him. We toured Hazel island with him about 6 years ago. Met a really nice couple in our group & had an enjoyable morning. Had lunch afterwards at Bumpas - great folks and delicious sandwiches!
