Well kept and a great little museum. The museum is comparatively new and well laid out. The fort itself is small but in good condition and the surrounding gardens are well tended. More

Fort King george is a beautiful place that also houses a museum ( only open on weekdays). The place is pristine and well kept and the views are totally amazing. It's also a wonderful place to picnic or just sit and relax. More

Our visit to Fort King George was very educational one as we learnt about some of the history of Tobago. The view was amazing as we looked over the walls of the Fort. You can see the countryside which was a nice scenery. More

Visited here at night. Awesome view of city and coastline.Could probably have a picnic in the daytime. The grounds are well kept and the lawn well manicured. Go for the view----it's well worth it and guess what there is no charge. More
