Default Changes to shore excursions

I've just been onto the Princess site with a view to pre-booking excursions and I have discovered that all the trips at St Thomas that are scheduled to visit Mountain Top have had this particular item removed?
Has anybody any idea why?
We are scheduled to visit the Island in January.

The summary note states:

This description has been revised from the tour book. The tour no longer includes a stop at Mountain Top. Tours departing in the afternoon do not have the option of remaining in Charlotte Amalie to shop. Passengers choosing to stay in town are responsible for their transfer back to the ship.

Cheers

Mike

Mike,
Mountain Top suffered a massive, devastating fire last year and has been closed since.
