St. Thomas Walking Tour
St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands
Why Walk St. Thomas
St. Thomas rises steeply from the Caribbean Sea, its harbor town of Charlotte Amalie wrapping around one of the most beautiful natural harbors in the Caribbean. Denmark colonized the island in the 17th century, and the red-roofed Danish colonial buildings, cobblestone steps, and fort still define the town. The island is a US territory, so no passport is needed for American visitors.
