Island Bites & Highlights Food Tour (dia inteiro / meio)
Descrição
Por que você deve ter que escolher entre um passeio culinário e um passeio turístico?

Itinerário
Situado no topo de Richmond Hill, no centro de St. George's, o Fort Frederick é um forte tipo bastião, que oferece uma vista de 360º de St. Depois de uma caminhada por seus grandes arcos, você olha para o sul, para a cidade de St. George's, e admira a pitoresca Carenage, e para o norte, para as cordilheiras onduladas cobertas por uma vegetação exuberante e casas pitorescas. Hoje, Fort Frederick é uma atração de belas vistas e vários níveis com perspectivas encantadoras da capital Granada.
O Carenage é a bela orla de St. George's, ladeada por elegantes edifícios coloniais e coloridas habitações em estilo caribenho, com restaurantes, bares e lojas. Construída pelos franceses em 1650, St. George's, capital de Granada, fica de frente para um porto em forma de ferradura e é cercada pela encosta de uma antiga cratera vulcânica.
Em Annandale Falls, você apreciará a serenidade da água em cascata sobre as rochas, simplesmente deleite-se com a beleza e os sons das cataratas ou você pode passar um tempo explorando as trilhas e os jardins circundantes, onde flores e árvores tropicais florescem.
O Parque Nacional Grand Etang é o local ideal para planejar sua escapada perfeita em Granada. À medida que viajamos pelas montanhas, você começa a se aproximar do interior tropical da ilha. No parque, você aprenderá sobre algumas das belas plantas e interagirá com seus animais hospitaleiros. Você será guiado pela bela floresta tropical até o famoso lago Grand Etang, que fica a 550 m acima do nível do mar e um dos dois lagos da ilha. Nesse ponto, você terá uma vista perfeita do monte Qua Qua, alimentará os peixes do lago e experimentará a paz na beira da água.
A Casa do Chocolate é um mini-museu único e bonito, feito à mão, que retrata a história do chocolate. Possui um pequeno café com deliciosos chocolates feitos no local; você também pode desfrutar de outras delícias, incluindo sorvetes, bolos e bebidas. Uma pequena butique oferece uma seleção de tudo feito com cacau em Granada.

Book through Viator, was to be a good tour as well as stops at Annabeth falls and Grand Etang. Received email less than 12 hr prior to tour with stops not on original itinerary. Met at meeting stop and everyone was meeting for a different tour yet we were all in same taxi. Had to walk in rain to chocolate place that felt like infomercial, then waited on corner for 10 min while driver went to get taxi. He then stopped at a road side stand to grab small bit of food for only the 4 in our group, no explanation of what it was or what it meant to Grenada this was at 10:45ish. Stopped at rum and Laura’s spice both extra charges and not where we booked to go. At 3:30 when headed back to port he stopped grabbed 2 meals with 3 forks for 4 people and dropped us at pier. We were so hungry since we anticipated more of a food tour. Driver called office, I spoke with someone who kept asking me for screenshots of what I got from Viator I sent everything, but we needed to get on ship. They offered for us to wait another 10-15 min for driver to run and get more food. I declined and told them I would be filing for a refund from Viator. I requested 50% since we did not get adequate amount of food nor did we see the sites we booked and the refund was declined. I can not recommend them at all and will not recommend to my travel clients who come to the island. We were very much looking forward to experiencing the Grenada Island food, but was disappointed by what we didn’t receive and customer service that followed.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We would like to clarify that the guest booked and confirmed the half-day tour, not the full-day option. Stops such as Annandale Waterfalls and Grand Etang National Park are included only in the full-day tour, as clearly outlined on the booking page. Regarding meals, your reservation was for four guests, and three meals were served. One meal was briefly delayed, and we promptly offered an alternative, which was declined. This was the third food stop included in the half-day itinerary, and all other experiences were delivered as planned. The tour operated according to the confirmed booking and listed inclusions. We regret that the experience did not meet expectations, but future guests can be confident that our tours follow the advertised itinerary and provide the full experience outlined at booking.
Driver was friendly and knowledgeable. Food was yummy, especially the chocolate drink. It is a beautiful country and we saw quite a bit of the island.
Guide jeremy very knowledgeable Lots to see and experience Food great Beware the roads are frightening Great driving by our guide
Great tour and great tour guide. We really enjoyed this excursion! Jeremy has great knowledge of the island and he has a great personality
Wouldn’t recommend. They canceled the tour on the morning of and have yet to give me my full refund back. Waiting on TripAdvisor to step in or I will dispute the charges with my bank.
Steph, we understand your disappointment, but our tours require a minimum number of guests to operate. As you were the only traveler booked for that day, the tour could not run and your full refund was already processed through TripAdvisor. We’re transparent about this policy and always ensure guests are refunded promptly. We’d love to welcome you back on a future date when more travelers are confirmed so you can enjoy the full experience
Do NOT book this tour! It is NOT a food tour and if you pay for the full day- it is NOT a full day! We got picked up hotel, taken across the street and given a box breakfast and juice- no explanation until we asked the food vendor what it was-salt cod, eggs, sausage and a bake (bread) We then went to Chocolate museum and got to sample some chocolate and ice cream- at 9:45am! We then went to the Annandale waterfall and walked a bit there. We stayed longer to see the plants as the waterfall was quite small and not very interesting. Next we drove up to Lake Etang and told to look in a house (small museum of the reserve) We took a little walk to a viewpoint and our driver/guide came looking for us. We then drove down to the lake, took a pic and were showed some Koi fish that another guy fed bread to. We then drove up to the fort. It was now almost 1 pm and we kept asking when we were going to get food- we were hungry. Our driver/guide stopped outside thw fort and said we could take a pic, we said “wait, aren’t we going in”? He reluctantly said we could and gave us tickets. We took our time seeing the fort and came back and he asked for our tickets back. We explained that we gave thwm to the lady to enter thw fort and he went back and tried to get them back for some reason. We asked again about food. It was now just after 2pm. He told us he would pick up food and take us back to our hotel. We were shocked as this was a $200pp tour. We complained and callled and texted the provider which took up more time. In the end he picked up 2 containers of rice, potato and chicken and a roti filled with potato and a little chicken, drove us to a park near our hotel to eat and thwn dropped us off. Yes it was food, but not like any food tour I’ve ever been on and zero explanation was given as to what we were eating. This tour was NOT worth the money at all
Trisha we see you have delivered your promise of writing us a 1 star review, thank you. We must make it clear though that we have all the receipts of everything you and your partner ate and photos of you guys totally enjoying all the samples with a smile on your face, yet you were starving and left hungry? Hopefully this platform upgrades and allows us suppliers to reply to reviews with photos. Until then we also need to make it clear you cannot bully our staff into purchasing bottles of alcohol for you from their pockets. Its a Food & Sightseeing Tour we are only responsible for the description and itinerary of the tour not the wild ideas you have in your head. The meals you received are food the the locals would eat on a typical day. Your definition of “rice potatoes and chicken” was actually rice & peas, potato salad, cornmeal cou-cou, green salad, jerk style chicken, macaroni pie and boiled provisions. The roti is as reviewed by previous guests is over filled with chicken. Your breakfast is also what we eat on a daily. Included in your tour was also rum samples and ice-cream. Permit us to ask the question again….you were left starving ? In the tour description it clearly states our half day tour estimated duration is 4-5 hours and the full day 6-7 hours. You were picked up at your hotel at 8:00am dropped back at 3:00pm which is 7 hours. According to our tour description that is a full day tour. Thank you for choosing us.
Driver/Guide Jeremy took pride in sharing some of his his country's favorite dishes in addition to sharing the heritage of his country. He made this a most enjoyable experience!
The driver was over a hour later but it was a person reason so I do understand the tour was ok expectations.
Hello Holden, we pride ourselves in usually exceeding guest expectations however we do apologize for not getting it right this time and not meeting your expectations. If there is anything we can do remedy the situation please do not hesitate to contact our customer services for support. Thank you for choosing us. Thank you.
If I can leave 0 stars I would. We booked a half day tour which on the site states it starts at 9am. The day before we get a text stating our tour starts at 1130am. Then the day of I confirm with them to make sure they are still coming to pick us up, they then push the time back to 1pm. Once we are picked up by a very nice driver, we are then told we only have one food place to go to and a chocolate place. For $150 a piece, that’s not what we wanted or expected. The owner denied giving us our money back. While at the only food place on our $150 a piece tour, we go to this spot where our food is already packaged and cold. There is no where to sit in the restaurant so we had to take the food to go. The next and final stop is the chocolate tour which consisted of a nice man telling us the history and showing us how they make chocolate(10mins). We then had shredded broken tiny pieces of chocolate as our “samples”. This place is a scam and I will Never support them again. Horrible! And down right shameful!
We at Nirraky Tours have a zero tolerance policy for competitor related spiteful, slanderous and fictitious reviews. If indeed you traveled with our company please reach out to customer services with your booking reference number as we have no records of this incident ever occurring or anyone by your name on tour with us. Thank you.
The price was not worth it for a half day trip. Would have cost me less to rent a car and took myself around for a lot cheaper. We went to the chocolate factory and drove past ft. Fredrick. Stop to grab a few dishes. Even a native confirmed what I thought. The driver was just doing what he was told to do so I don't fault him in any way.
Hi Jillian, we are saddened to hear of your experience with us. If indeed your guide did not go to all the stops that were listed in your itinerary then this is not acceptable by our standards and a very serious issue. It’s quite unfortunate that we never heard about this complaint from you except reading it now in this review. You booked the half day option which includes 3 sight/venue stops and 3 food stops. Our customer services team has since reached out to you to get to the bottom of these allegations but with no luck. Please reach out to us as we would like to confirm what exactly transpired on your tour as we have never had such a complaint before which if truly occurred needs urgent looking into. Thanks for your cooperation and looking forward to hearing from you so we can remedy the situation. Kind regards
