1.Grand Turk Historical Sightseeing Tour by Tram

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 403 reviews · from $25Our pick

Ride with a local guide, often Doug, from the cruise-terminal area across Grand Turk to Cockburn Town, the salt ponds, and Grand Turk Lighthouse. You’ll hear island stories, see wild donkeys and horses, sample local food, and stop for shopping. The open tram is scenic, but its sound system and weather protection can be unreliable.

“Don't be put off by the appearance of the tram itself - it looked pretty decrepit, but it was fine. The driver was phenomenal! He grew up on Grand Turk and knew pretty much everything about not only Grand Turk, but also the CaicoRead more”
