The excursion got off to a stressful start when I couldn’t locate the meeting spot. Heritage Quay is quite expansive, so offering a more precise landmark like Rumrunners would have been appreciated. The other booked party never appeared so we eventually left the port. I was the only passenger & was treated royally. Steven, driver/guide/chef, was a pleasure to get to know. Once at the beach, he set up my chair/umbrella & I was all set for a terrific beach day. Two things to be aware of: bathrooms are a few hundred yards down the beach; there is quite a steep drop off once you enter the water—something to watch out for if one has mobility or balance issues. Water color is typical Caribbean turquoise—gorgeous & refreshing. Steven prepared/served lobster & chicken lunch at the agreed upon time. Hope I’ll be able to attach a photo—it was delightful & very filling. Overall, I was impressed with the beach —busy but not loud or crowded where I was sitting. I was even more impressed with the service & attention I received from Steven. He has the perfect demeanor & personality for this job. In addition to his driving & grilling skills, he also excels in describing aspects of life in Antigua. I recommend this excursion enthusiastically.

This was the best excursion our 10 day Caribbean cruise. Kareem met us promptly at the cruise board and took us through a scenic drive to get to the beautiful Dickinson Bay. The waters are absolutely beautiful, multiple shades of blue and so clear. We had chairs with umbrellas on a very quiet part of the beach, thankfully away from the big resorts. It was so peaceful and gorgeous. We were treated to a delicious lobster and chicken lunch and beverages. It was a slow paced day which is exactly what we want when we're lying on a Caribbean beach. thank you to Kareem and Stephen for a beautiful day.

Today we did the excursion to Dickinson Bay Beach with the wonderful host Kareem. Kareem picked us up promptly at the cruise port and took a scenic drive to Dickinson Bay Beach. He had a lot of information about Antigua, which was very interesting. We got to the beach and they were chairs set up with umbrellas, in the most beautiful setting imaginable. The location is in a quiet area, not right in front of the big resorts and incredibly peaceful. The water was several shades of beautiful blue and easy to swim in. Beverages were served and we had the most delicious grilled lobster and chicken lunch. This was absolutely our favorite excursion of our 10 day cruise and Kareem and Steven took such great care of us. This was the second time we did this excursion and we will be certainly back for a third.

The beach is trash! The surroundings around the beach are disgusting. The lobster lunch provided with the cost of the excursion is crap. A lobster shell with dry lobster whatever, four pieces of garlic bread (What was I suppose to do with that!!) A spoonful of undressed salad. My wife got the same dry disgusting lobster in a shell with a spoonful of rice and a spoonful of undressed salad. “The Open Bar” was a guy (Steve) with a cooler with a gallon of some type of punch and bottled water. Next to us was a bunch of people with loud music, loud talking, smoking pot with a local walking by with his dog. No umbrellas. We had to walk down the beach to find a restaurant/bar that would let us use the bathroom if we bought something. It cost $30 to use the bathroom. There is where we saw the English Phone Booth that is advertised on Viators customer pictures. Steve the guy who picked us up, lounged on a lounge chair back a bit behind us until we were ready to go back to our ship. Then we had a woman come around wanting to massage us. It was obviously Steve’s friend since she went to sit with him. This was such a disappointing, disgusting excursion we have been on. It is NOTHING like it was advertised!! I was so upset because it was my wife’s birthday and I wanted it to be a beautiful day on a beautiful beach with drinks flowing with a beautiful lobster lunch. It was none absolutely none of that! I wish I could upload the video and pictures of this disgusting dump. Speaking of dump there were piles of rubbish and crap all around. I wanted to cry because of how dirty and disgusting it was and I wanted it to be so special for my wife’s birthday. I can go on and on about how terrible this experience was but there were too many things wrong with the whole day. Do Not do The Dickinson Bay Beach Excursion.

Picked up at the port and given a sun lounger and umbrella. Fresh lobster bbq at the beach caught in the ocean few hours before.

Our driver was on time and with a pleasant and bright attitude! We had the entire beach to ourselves and it made the experience that much more relaxing and amazing. Our guide was extremely patient and attentive serving us drinks and food. The grilled lobster was amazing, as well as the salad, chicken, and garlic bread. That homemade thousand island dressing was a 20/10, delicious! Thank you so much for an amazing day in a piece of paradise. Unforgettable 😊.

It wasn’t great but it was ok. There wasn’t anywhere to change or go to the restroom. The lobster tail was totally overcooked tough

Pick-up was on time and the overall beach experience was lovely. The beach itself was beautiful, and the sun loungers, umbrellas, and rum punch made for a relaxing day. However, the lobster lunch was disappointing. The lobster was dry, and the meal only came with two small pieces of sweet potato and a mini bread. Unfortunately, considering the cost of the excursion, the lunch did not feel worth it.

The driver was an hr late. Then when it was time to return the bus’s key did not work. There wasn’t anything to do on that beach. Spent all that money on one rum punch two meals and ride. Not pleased at all. The host was nice but when we were stuck in the bus for 45 mins before he called for help. When giving this kind of service please try to entertain. The more pleased the customer is more inclined to spend more.

It was a great experience. Steven was very good. The only suggestion is make sure you have your suit on because there aren't any bathrooms on the beach. We had to walk down to the closest hotel buy drinks to use facilities. The lunch of lobster and corn and jerk chicken was tasty.
