Détails programme

Travel the fort with your well-informed host from its striking bastions and grass-covered ramparts to small cobbled streets lined with intriguing buildings. Begin your walk from the newer and now main entrance which, after climbing some stone steps, you will be stood upon. Survey the inside of this remarkable fortification, the Indian Ocean beyond, and the iconic cricket ground as your host regales you with historic tales of its creation and threats. Meander your way past some of the fort's best-known landmarks but look out also for some lesser-known gems. With 150 acres to explore, this tour follows a route that whets the appetite, with a comprehensive and captivating selection of facts and stories drawing from religion, history architecture, daily life, and the devastation of the 2004 Tsunami. The experience includes a knowledgeable host who will accompany you during the tour, ensuring an informative experience. Additionally, water will be provided to keep you hydrated. You have two timing options available: 8:00 am or 4:00 pm, with a duration of approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, allowing flexibility in planning your day. This activity is suitable for children, making it an excellent choice for families. To stay comfortable and protected from the sun, we recommend wearing light clothes, a cap, and applying sunscreen.
