  After hotel pick up in the Frigate Bay area, your tour starts with a sightseeing drive through Basseterre, the largest city on the island and the capital of St Kitts and Nevis. Check out landmarks like Independence Square (used for slave auctions in the 18th century), Immaculate Conception Cathedral and the Victorian-style Berkeley Memorial Clock.

  在护卫舰湾酒店接机以后,您旅程的第一步就是开车游览巴斯特尔,它是岛上最大的城市,也是圣基茨和尼维斯的首都。然后就是游览岛上的地标,诸如独立广场(18世纪用于奴隶拍卖)、圣灵天主大教堂以及维多利亚式伯克利纪念钟。

  

  Then head to Wingfield Estate, a former sugar mill and rum distillery. With its proximity to the Wingfield River, Wingfield was one of the only factories on St Kitts to use water as a power source; with your guide, explore the estate and check out the old aqueduct. Learn about the estate’s history, which dates back to the 17th century, making it one of the Caribbean’s oldest distilleries.

  下一步,前往温菲尔德庄园。由于里温菲尔德河很近,温菲尔德庄园是圣基茨唯一一座使用水力的工厂。跟随导游探索这座古老的庄园,触摸古旧的水渠。这座庄园可追溯到17世纪,是加勒比地区最古老的酿酒厂之一。

  

  Next, continue your tour to Clay Villa Plantation House and Gardens, about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Basseterre. This 10-acre (4-hectare) property dates back to 1763 and is the only plantation on the island that never profited from slavery.

  旅程下一站是克莱别墅种植园,位于巴斯特尔以西4英里(6.4公里)处这座占地10英亩(4公顷)的庄园可追溯到1763年,是岛上唯一一座没有利用奴隶牟利的庄园。

  Take a tour with your guide through the verdant gardens, admiring the organic fruit and learning about the native vegetation and traditional bush remedies. Keep an eye out for wildlife like vervet monkeys, turtles, fish and tropical birds. Then enter the plantation house — still a family home — for a tour of its period furniture and historical artifacts.

  然后导游会带你穿过青翠的花园,品尝有机水果,了解当地植物和传统草本疗法。当地野生动物种类繁多,有长尾黑颚猴、海龟、鱼类以及各种热带鸟类。然后就能就如种植园内部了,里面的房屋至今仍有人家居住。你可以尽情领略当时的家居摆设和历史悠久的手工艺品的气息。

  

  After your tour of the house, enjoy a refreshing glass of rum punch or fruit punch, and then sit down for a rum tasting. Sample three St Kitts rums, learning about their backgrounds and different flavors from a knowledgeable tasting guide. Then head back to Basseterre, passing by the old St Kitts Sugar Factory and the rum-blending and bottling plant at Bird Rock, where rums like CSR, Brinley’s and Belmont Estate are produced. Your tour ends with a return ride to your hotel.

  参观完房屋,请安坐下来,细品一杯朗姆酒或是果酒。品酒经验丰富的导游会给你讲述三种样酒不同的背景和口味。在返回巴斯特尔的途中,会经过位于博德岩的圣基茨糖厂和朗姆酒混合装瓶场,CRS、Brinley和贝尔蒙特等酒都是在这儿生产的。旅程就此结束,然后您就可以返回酒店了。
