We had a really good time with Stanley. Super chill guy. The Tuk Tuk is rough and loud but that was all part of the experience. The brewery was the highlight of the trip. Very good beer and great conversation. Highly recommend. The beach we went to wasn't the nicest but it had good views. Apparently there are a lot of turtles in that area so if you had your own snorkel gear that would be neat. We didn't end up going to Shirley Heights because we had been there already so we stayed a few extra minutes at the Harbour and the beach. All in all we had a really good time and would recommend 💯.
Unfortunately we picked a rainy day to do this excursion lol. Kwanzey was very knowledgeable and kept us well entertained despite the weather. Nelson’s Dockyard was so interesting and Kwanzey was very patient and took us through the museum and allowed time for photo opportunities. Shirley Heights was a bit of a washout because of the weather and we couldn’t visit the beach either. The Brewery visit was much better as we got wet inside instead of out 😉. We were picked up by the boss of the company, who was also amazing 🤩
The Tuk Tuk tour was great! Our guide, Kwanzey was informative, thorough, and absolutely THE BEST! Thank you for an amazing adventure.
Thank you so much for your glowing review! We will pass on your praise to Kwanzey!
Two tuk tuks, two very sympathetic drivers who also conveyed good information around them
The open air Tuk Tuk tour was absolutely amazing! What a fun way to see some of the best sites on the island. Kawonsey was professional, courteous, funny, knowledgeable, and accommodating. We loved every stop on the tour, but especially the 2six8 brewery stop as we are craft beer enthusiasts! We had the full undivided attention of the owner and we gladly drank what he was so proud to brew! Even when we had a minor mechanical problem along the the way, Kawonsey remained calm, cool, collected, and creative as he powered the tuk tuk home. I highly recommend this tour as you will not be disappointed!
Way more fun than the tour description tells you Several activities Each donevery nicely Driver Dorian was great Whole experience was well planned Well timed And super fun
We loved the Tuk Tuk trip, it was a great way to see the sights, our driver Rey was lovely and he was very informative. There was run punch and fruit punch which was lovely, there was no light bites though so make sure you gave had a good breakfast 😉 Vaughn at the micro brewery was lovely and very interesting, he made us feel very welcome, we would definitely go back 😀
2 six 8 brewery was the highlight of the day. Rory and Vaughn made the visit a super fun experience. Their pomegranate grapefruit seltzer was the best I ever tasted. The initial drive to Nelson's Dockyard was long and once there we were left out with minimal direction. We followed the people on the other Tuktuk for a lovely tour, rum punch and a little time to visit the Museum. Next we went to Shirley Heights for a beautiful view. At Galleon Beach we we're giving a box lunch (minimal tuna on bread) and had time to swim, but the facilities were closed and we were on our own again. Afterwards seemed like a long time we went to check on the Driver and found him napping in the Tuktuk. I don't think he was happy that we woke him, but it was time to go to the 2 six 8 brewery. On the way back, he drove as quickly as possible to drop us at the port a block or two before you are picked up again with minimal direction. He did tell us this was the first time he did this tour so perhaps he just needs more experience. Overall a fun day.
The roads are a bit bumpy. But a good way to get a feel of the island. You will get a good taste of some history, some views, a beach break and a fun beer tasting.
We had a fantastic day with Akim! From pick up to drop off we were great looked after! We have had the opportunity to taste many local fruits and learn new things. The viewpoints were fantastic and the micro-brewery was delightful and very good! Also the stopover on the beach to refresh and snorkel was great! Thank you, we would book again anytime!
