Stanley (Driving Tour)
Stanley is the charming capital of the Falkland Islands, a remote archipelago located in the South Atlantic Ocean. With its picturesque landscapes and unique blend of British and South American influences, Stanley offers visitors a captivating glimpse into life in this remote corner of the world. A guided tour of Stanley may include such eclectic sights as the distinctive Anglican Christ Church Cathedral known for its red corrugated iron exterior, the official residence of the governor of the Falkland Islands, the Victorian-style Royal Falkland Islands Police Station, , and the 1914 War Memorial commemorating the Battle of Coronel and the Battle of the Falklands fought between the British and German fleets, among other iconic landmarks.

What you will see along the way:
Nestled along the sheltered harbor, Stanley, the petite capital of the islands, extends a warm greeting to every visitor. Stanley exudes a village-like charm while offering the conveniences found in larger towns as well as fascinating attractions. The architectural diversity in Stanley mirrors its British heritage, boasting an array of intriguing structures and unexpected photographic opportunities. As you travel through the picturesque enclave, keep an eye out for iconic British symbols such as bright red telephone booths and mailboxes.

Photo Opportunities:
Point your lens at the must-see attraction known as the Whalebone Arch in front of Christ Church Cathedral, built in 1933 using two blue whale jawbones to commemorate a century of British rule in the Falklands. Then, commemorate the Lady Liz, an renowned shipwreck in Stanley Harbour, and take a selfie with the quirky and colorful Totem Pole, a unique structure featuring distance markers to global destinations.

Sampling/Tasting:
Across from Stanley Harbour, at a picturesque spot dotted with colorful fishing boats and surrounded by rolling hills, enjoy a meal at local favorite The Camber, an enclosed picnic area where tastes of the Falklands await. Sample menu includes traditional food of the Falklands including local lamb, fish and locally sourced salads. A taster of beer brewed nearby and Falklands-distilled gin complete the meal.
