The tour guide was very friendly, providing drinks while travelling around the Island. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the Island, its British roots and its passion for cricket. Shirley Heights was an amazing view of Nelsons dockyard and the surrounding area.
We are aiming for the top tour/Guides in the Caribbean!!🌴
We had a great time driving through a large portion of Antigua, getting to really see the island. I wanted to try the local mangos and our tour guide, Trevor made sure to stop at a fruit stand for me. He was wonderful.
Trevor is an expectional tour guide
We visited Devils bridge/ the historic dockyard, Bettys Hope Sugar plantation and Shirley Heights. Our guide Carric was well informed and knowledgeable. During the day he introduced some quizzes and activities to keep us engaged while driving to the sites. Antigua is a beautiful island and it’s was worth finding out a little more of the history of the island.
😀😁 looking forward to hosting you again in antigua
The trip was a great way to see the island. This was our first time here and we were excited to explore some of the local attractions. Our guide Trevor was excellent and kept us informed of island highlights the entire trip. I would highly recommend this experience!
We're happy you've enjoyed your day out with Trevor
Good tour of island although nothing that spectacular to see. Devil's Bridge might be more impressive when the sea is a bit more rough. Nice views towards end of tour.
Devon was our driver and tour guide and he taught us so much about the history of Antigua. He was a very skilled driver and always took time to point out highlights along the way. He was kind and had a way of telling stories that was very engaging and interesting. A great day and a wonderful tour! Thank you Devon.
We are delighted that you enjoyed every bit of the tour with Devon. 🇦🇬🌴
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We booked a private island tour and it completely exceeded our expectations — and our guide Carrick was the reason why. His passion for the island was evident from the moment we set off. This wasn't just a standard tour; he genuinely loves what he does and it shows in every recommendation he makes. Carrick brought us to some truly lovely stops that we never would have found on our own. The kind of hidden gems that make you feel like you're seeing the real side of a place rather than the tourist trail. Every location felt handpicked and thoughtful and the last unexpected beach stop was the best beach on the island and we revisited later in the week on our own If you're visiting and want an experience that goes beyond the guidebook, book a private tour with Carrick. His enthusiasm is infectious and his knowledge is brilliant. One of the best decisions we made on our holiday — we left feeling like we'd truly discovered the island.
Thank you for your kind words. 😆🇦🇬
It was very informative!!! If you love learning about history its great!! Our driver Trevor was AMAZING!!!!! We felt like old friends and he was just showing us around his town!!! He definitely went the extra mile even stopping at an ATM and stopping to get us water!
We appreciate your kind words and happy that you enjoyed your day out with Trevor
Our tour of Antigua was immaculate! The professionalism and hospitality was beyond my expectations. We initially booked with person X got but got person Y. I must say Steve was a pleasure and knowledgeable guy with the island. You can tell he has passion and drive for giving quality tours!
Hello, we a delighted that you had a great day out with Steve. He is a very good guide. See you on your return to Antigua 🇦🇬
Excellent option that allowed for flexibility especially for my elderly mum. The guide, Devon, was informative, patient and attentive. All round thus was a great choice!
