Things to Do in Port au Prince

The Petionville district is very popular with travellers and a great choice for Port au Prince accommodation. It’s home to mansions, shops selling luxury goods and restaurants serving up Creole and French cuisine. If you enjoy a drink (or five), check out the Barbancourt Rum Distillery, which naturally includes a free tasting. After taking the tour there, explore the Musee du Pantheon National Haitien, which gives insight into the intriguing history and diverse culture of Haiti. If you're an art lover, immerse yourself in the National Museum of Art and the Museum of Haitian Art. When you're ready for some outdoor activities, be sure to see the city from its best vantage point atop the observatory on Mount Boutilliers. You can also “horse” around with an equine ride in the mountains or spend a day at the beach; just be sure to pack accordingly for each activity!
