Step into a historic Caribbean barrel house and taste the past—one sip at a time. This immersive rum tasting invites you to explore the Virgin Islands’ rich history through its most iconic export: sugarcane rum. Guided by passionate hosts in the heart of Charlotte Amalie, you’ll learn the difference between molasses and sugarcane-based rums, the role of the Virgin Islands in the global rum trade, and how French Caribbean sugarcane and cognac barrel aging create a smoother, cleaner spirit. Your senses will lead the way—start by exploring the rum aroma station, then savor a curated flight of at least four premium rums, each telling a flavorful story of terroir, craftsmanship, and island culture. This is more than a tasting—it’s an invitation to connect with the legacy of rum in the West Indies.

Sail to three snorkeling and beach highlights of the British Virgin Islands in a day from the US Virgin Islands without organizing anything yourself on this cruise from St. Thomas. Snorkel at uninhabited Norman Island and The Baths at Virgin Gorda, and also hike on that national park–covered island. Refuel with lunch and drinks (own expense) at a beach club. Onboard open bar, snacks, and snorkel gear are included.

First, participants will be introduced to herbs that local Virgin Islanders use to cleanse their bodies and auras. The majority, if not all of the herbs, will be picked from the yard where the drum circle will occur. After learning about some of the herbs, participants will have an opportunity to cleanse their aura with a spiritual bath, what we locals call a "bush bath", with a bath made by the session leader using some of the same herbs. This part of the activity is optional, and consists of taking a small amount of the herbal mixture in the hand and sprinkling it about the body. After the introduction to the herbs and bush bath, participants will sit in a circle and choose from a variety of different percussive instruments. Participants will learn and create a traditional African-inspired rhythm and learn a local calypso (kariso) song about a major event in Virgin Islands history. If inclined, participants can dance! This experience teaches history, culture, and the arts.
