Room tours

While our rooms offer a peek into the history and heartbeat of our people, we are excited at the prospect that you learn just a little more about our country during your stay with us. In light of this, Coblentz Inn Boutique Hotel has designed several island tours centered on our room themes.

Through the Front Desk

Savannah/Government House:
The National Trust of Trinidad and Tobago conducts a drive/walk tour through Port of Spain and the surrounding areas, including an enlightening drive around the Savannah to see our Magnificent Seven and the President's House.

Rum Shop

The Angostura Tour – Internationally acclaimed for its award winning rums and home of world-famous Angostura Bitters, Angostura offers a tour of its rum factory. The estate also features a museum devoted to the history of the Angostura and Fernandes distilling operations and an art gallery displaying the works of Caribbean artists.

The Oval

For you avid cricket fans, the Queens Park Oval is already known as the site of historic matches and individual performances. We can't imagine that you would miss the chance to see Brian Lara at the crease, but the only time to do so would be in the international cricket season of course, which runs from March to May. If you would like us to coordinate tickets to one of the matches, please don't hesitate to ask at the Front Desk.



River Lime

The River Lime tour is a challenging one, so prepare yourself for some hiking. Starting at the Asa Wright Nature Centre, a premiere location for bird watching, this jaunt offers a drive along the scenic Arima Blanchisseuse road, a visit to a century old swing bridge, a hike through the Marianne River to the Avocat waterfall, and the option of lunch and a dip in either the fresh water Marianne River or the Caribbean Sea.

Available everyday but Sunday.

Central/This Old House/Cocoa House

There are several options for this tour that include a drive through the sugar cane and cocoa estates in Central Trinidad to visit the oldest wooden church on our islands, a trip to old coca lands up to a refurbished cocoa estate house and through the Brasso Seco village, or hike up Tamana Hills past our world renowned bat caves to, what Geoffrey describes as the most magnificent view in Trinidad, across Central Trinidad to the Gulf of Paria and the entire Northern Range including the Atlantic ocean. If you time it correctly, on your way back down you are witnesses to the thousands of bats leaving the caves at sunset.

Down the Islands

The five islands situated off the North West tip of Trinidad have mesmerizing histories. With the coast of Venezuela as a backdrop in the distance, you will take a boat ride through the islands and hear of their natural and social history, eventually stopping off on Chacachacare island, once a leper colony. This is an all day tour to the islands that culminates with a trip to our Military Museum.

Tours can be arranged through our Front Desk Agent..
