Le fort James, du nom du roi Jacques II d'Angleterre a été construit au 18ème siècle parce que les Britanniques craignaient une invasion française. Ce fort a été stratégiquement construit pour garder l'entrée du port de St. John's. Il était armé de 36 canons et possédait des casernes pouvant accueillir 75 hommes. Quelques canons sont encore visibles sur les ruines de ce fort.
La première cathédrale a été construite en 1681, une simple structure en bois. Cela a été remplacé en 1745 après avoir été gravement endommagé par un tremblement de terre. La structure actuelle telle que construite en 1845.

The city is dirty and smelly. There are spots of interest such as VC Bird bust, Heritage quay, the museum of Antigua, recreation ground, the craft and veggie market and more.
We’re truly sorry to hear that certain aspects of the city did not meet your expectations. Your observations are appreciated, and we’ll be sure to share them with the relevant authorities as we all continue working to improve the visitor experience while preserving the charm and character of our island. We hope you were still able to enjoy the beauty and warmth Antigua has to offer and would love to welcome you back for a more fulfilling experience.
Viator says 2.5/3hrs tour, it's not clear. The operator Blondel said 2.5hrs. Viator said to me that I was able to stop and see the Antigua Museum, St John's Cathedral, other churches, Heritage Quay, the vegetable market, Fort James. I expressed asked to Viator if I was going inside these attractions and I have been told yes. Blondel looked in hurry, wanted to do 2.5hrs showing me everything from the car. I said to her that the website said to stop and show me. Then she stopped but in the Museum and in St John's Cathedral she left me going alone. So I didn't have anyone explains to me. In the museum she came shouting in front of the lady who works there moaning that I was taking too much time, but she didn't agree with me how long I should stay in the first place. She has been rude, she recognised that and she started to recover the situation but it was too late. She messed up my tour. She stopped to Fort James. She stopped to the moulin where the sugar was worked. She didn't stop to the vegetable market, she didn't stop to Heritage Quay. I wanted to buy some gifts, I couldn't. She passed by the Prime Minister statue and I had to do the picture inside the car, because she said that she couldn't stop and get the ticket from the police. The tour is impossible in 2.5hrs so it's not worthy the money and the experience. Not completely satisfied witth the tour and the customer service. Viator wasn't cleared about the tour and Blondel she shouldn't behave in that way treatment me poorly.
We sincerely appreciate your feedback and are very sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations. We strive to provide an enjoyable and informative tour, and it’s disappointing to learn that you felt rushed and that communication regarding stops and entry to attractions was unclear.

I had the same driver from the Island tour and was extremely happy. Excellent trip to St. John's and toured around and in the city. Went to St. James fort, the various churches and the hub of the city. He is extremely knowledgeable. Well worth the knowledgeable you gain about the city. Chance to see the everyday person activity. Worth the trip and not real hot in the morning.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your trip to St. John's with your driver from the island tour. It’s great to know that you explored key sites like St. James Fort and the local churches while benefiting from your guide’s extensive knowledge. We're glad that you appreciated the chance to experience everyday life in the city.
We had a great time. Our driver was prompt and had a wealth of knowledge about the island. He pointed out many interesting sites as we drove to and around Saint Johns. We told him we were interested in some local food and he took us to what he called the best local restaurant called Global Garden. When we got back to the hotel a number of the locals said they ate there a day or two before. Would highly recommend the trip.
Thank you for your review. We're delighted to hear you had a great tour of our capital.
