Program Details
“Steam Train Ride The Sugar Mills Valley”
The Valley of the Sugar Mills was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1998 because of its links to the slave trade generated by the sugar farms in the area during that period. This place is a living museum of the ancient sugar trade of the 18th and 19th centuries. What better way to experience this period than to take a steam train ride and experience the journey from the sugar cane fields to the mill.
