Old Town discusses tourism attractions

Guided museum tours, fishing charters and tips on foraging and cooking local produce are all on the schedule for this coming tourism season in the Old Town.

Business owners and others responsible for delivering St George’s tourism product met last night at the World Heritage Centre to discuss what old and new experiences will be on offer. Another meeting is planned for next week to focus on a plan to get the information out and a guide to the season will eventually be produced.

Hub One cultural tourism manager Kristin White told The Royal Gazette: “There will be a presentation of everything I have collected from different people. It gives us the opportunity to make sure we all know what is happening.

“Tonight we will show them when everything is open and hopefully by the weekend I can take the presentation and turn it into a bit of a guide for people who work on the front line in St George’s.

“We are trying to get everyone singing from the same hymn sheet. We all know what experiences are available and we can all share information.

“There are a couple of new experiences including a foraging and cooking experience in the Mitchell House kitchen and one of the fishing charters will be doing a half-day fishing and a half-day of cooking up at Griffins. The majority of the museums will also be offering at least one tour each week instead of it being a self-guided experience.

“There are a lot of cool things coming up, these are just a few.”
