We toured the Territory with Lorenzo, a former Chief. It was so interesting. My 2 grandchildren, both 18, really enjoyed it as well. We learned a lot and had a great time doing it. In addition, Lorenzo had arranged for a driver for me for the 2 weeks we were there. I sent a list of all the excursions we had booked, and we were picked up and returned on time for everything. It made our entire trip effortless.

Looking to immerse ourselves into the rich culture of the Kalinago, we wisely chose a tour with Chief Lorenzo. We visited more obscure places on the reserve and learned about the lore and livelihood of the first people of Dominica. We feasted on fruits while walking common trails and learned about how tradition and progress are balanced in this unique community. We highly recommend this tour with Lorenzo and look forward to another visit to this beautiful country.
