What To Expect
Nelson's Dockyard
English Harbour, Antigua's historic district, is focused on the 15sq. miles of Nelson's Dockyard National Park. Developed as a base for the British Navy in the great age of sail, the harbour served as the headquarters of the fleet of the Leeward Islands during the late 18th century.
Shirley Heights
At Shirley Heights, are the partially-restored fortifications of the harbour's colonial observation post; the view from Shirley Heights extends out over the harbour and far across the Caribbean to neighboring islands. Shirley Height was named after St Thomas Shirley (1727–1800) Shirley was first Governor of the Leeward Islands in 1781.

Tumba, an excellent tour guide

5.00Tumba gave a more than excellent tour. I wish there was another word to describe it. Tumba was very knowledgeable and easy to talk with.
A great day in Antigua.

5.00Tumbo was terrific! It turned out to be just the 2 of us. We saw the sugar plantation, devil's bridge, and 4 stops in the National Park (Dows Hill Center, two viewpoints near Shirley"s Heights, and Nelson's Dockyard). Tumbo was full of information on the natural and cultural history of Antigua. We had a great day and highly recommend his tour.
Unforgettable day in Antiqua

5.00Privattour! Be sure to do it! Tour with all the sights, rainforest and most beautiful beaches. Our driver Sean described everything great and left us plenty of time to explore. Ask for Sean! Anytime again.

5.00We started our tour early and made it to some of the highlights just before the crowds started to arrive. Our tour guide Tumba was amazing, the sites were great and we had just the right amount of time to see all of the sites. We have been to this island before and never seen many of the highlights that this tour took us to.

5.00I had an amazing time touring with Carl today! Carl was very courteous and made sure we were comfortable. I learned so much about the culture of the island and many new facts. I highly recommend booking here at this establishment. 10/10
Great tour guide. Owner, not so great.

3.00We got to the meeting point 15 mins early (8:45) to make sure we were at the right spot. I confirmed with a few locals that it was correct. At 9:15 I spoke with one of the wonderful staff at Exotic Antigua - and she phoned the tour operator for me. Carl hadn't realized there was a tour that day. At 9:45 Carl showed up and apologized for the situation. He said he had his guide on the way would be there shortly. He gave our guide $20 for drinks for us to compensate - even though drinks were already supposed to be included, so we were a bit confused by that. Carl said that he expected us to give him a bad review. We both thought this was a strange attempt to try and turn our bad start around. The guide eventually showed up (I wish I could remember his name) and completed a really great tour. The guide had had a full day planned with his family as it was his day off, and he was not expecting to complete a tour. He did a great job in not showing his disappointment. We really enjoyed the island and all of the stops; they include a lot of history about the island. Based on our experience, I think the guide could easily create his own tour company and complete his own tours.
Worthwhile

5.00Carl gave a great insight into much of the island and told a lot. It was very relaxed and we were well fed.
