5 Star Island Tour, Magen's Bay Beach & Shopping

[Sun Lover]

Has anyone done this specific tour with Royal Caribbean?  It says you spend 2 hours at Magen's Bay and 2 hours shopping.  The tour includes a stop at Mountain Top and it's listed as a 6 hour tour so I would assume the other 2 hours are spent at Mountain Top but I'm wondering how long it takes to get there and back so that it's really more like an hour there rather than 2 hours.  If anyone has done this tour, could you please give your opinion and what you liked or didn't like about it.  Thanks.

Very few people use the 2 hours shopping, but instead go sightseeing in town. You can go to Fort Christian and buy a ticket to go inside to see some exhibits, go up the 99 stairs for photos, go to the historic Synagogue, go to the Historical Trust Museum (free), or get a pate from the lady near The Greenhouse. 

 

The tour makes stops at other scenic outlooks, and only give you about 20 minutes at Mountain Top.

Anyone know if in the 2 hr shopping time instead of shopping if we are close to buy tickets for the skyride?

Town is less than a mile from the skyride so you could walk or take a taxi. However, the line can be long, so I think you would feel rushed. Taxis don't always leave immediately for your destination so that could be another wait time.
