Stanley town tours

Stanley is the capital of the Falklands Islands, home to 85% of the country’s population as well as the seat of Government and the majority of economic activity. Established by Governor Moody in 1843, Stanley has developed in to a flourishing town will full public amenities – but has also managed to retain much of its original seaside charm through the preservation of historic buildings and green space.

Walking and vehicle tours can be arranged. Your guide will point out major points of interest like the Christ Church Anglican Cathedral, Whalebone Arch, Jubilee Villas, St Mary’s Catholic Church, Tabernacle Church, Cartmell Cottage, Victory Green, Royal Falkland Islands Police Station, Town Hall, public bank, Government House – as well as the Community School and the 1982 Liberation Memorial. Other points of interest slightly out of the centre of town but still within easy walking distance are the Stanley Cemetery and Memorial Wood to the east, and the Jhelum shipwreck, Falkland Islands Museum and WW1 Battle Memorial to the west.
