The fare is reasonable and is only charged one way. Inside the heritage center there are lots of informational displays. There is also a very friendly curator who is happy to help talk you thru the history and the islands today ! · via Google [Travelling With Crowsfeet](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/101280347027680786144/reviews) ★★★★★ Call in and see Hazel.
