Private tour - history and scenic views?

[luvavacation]

My husband and I probably should have looked into this sooner, but in all honesty, after 4 cancelled Covid cruises, I didn't want to get excited about actually being on a cruise.  Now that the cruise is a week away, I suppose it is actually happening!  And we don't know what to do in Grand Turk!

 

None of the Princess offerings appeal to us.  We do not wish to sit on a bus and see things through a window.  

 

My husband really, really enjoys forts and military things.  I like old buildings, churches, and especially uncrowded beaches.  

 

Are there any recommendations for a tour or private option to see some of the sights on Grand Turk?  Or is it rather easy to rent something and do this on our own with a guidebook?

Just ask a taxi driver at the port. most of these drivers will give you a great tour.   Lighthouse, salt works, and several buildings in Cockburntown should keep both you and your husband happy.

Wonderful!  Thank you!

Yes get a taxi and have him show you the island based on what appeals to you.  Beautiful island and taxi drivers may be entertaining too.  You could check Trip Advisor for recommendations by frequent travelers and arrange in advance. When large ships come in taxis become scarce.
