Not a lot to see here

We took a tour to Louisburg fort. The old fort is being restored to its original replete with staff in period costumes

the residents love the US and treated us like we were family. theu really were glad to see the ship come in

Beautiful Seaside port with a short walk to the shops in the town.

Self directed tour of Sydney

The port was good but not much shopping. Lots of construction. Just walked around.

Nothing much to do or see at this port. Very small coastal area for tourist. We took a local bus to go around and see some of the life of the locals and places. That was a great and economical way to go.

Much smaller town is true, but we definitely missed out! Watch the TV in your room or rec room to see what the got spots are in port! We didn't do so, so we missed out. But beautiful park in the neighborhood.

Beautiful country! Nice area near the boardwalk, pier, historical area, churches and interesting people. We did an excursion to the Highland Heritage Museum that was both fantastic and disappointing. Fantastic because our guide was fun and very informative, the hour drive there and hour drive back offered beautiful views of the landscape, but the hurried 50 minutes we had to visit the museum was TOTALLY inadequate. This place is a living museum with a visitor center and informational movie, buildings and exhibits and artisans and interpreters who would have been happy to share their knowledge, and about a mile of walking around the grounds. But 50 minutes ONLY let’s you walk up the steep hill, quickly glance into some of the exhibits, and hurry back to the bus, definitely NOT an excursion worth the price. It WOULD have been well worth the price if we’d had even one hour more to actually experience the museum.
