5.00We had a nice air-conditioned shuttle. Some other tourslines are open air buses, that we saw - -I was very glad for the cool as I'm not used to the heat and humidity. The stops were not overly incredible but they showed us the best they had and gave us information all about their island. It is more dry and desertlike than I expected. It was a full tour and we saw everything. The pickup was near the port, just outside the port gates near Diamonds International. It was a longer walk for my older parents but at the end they dropped them right off by the cruise ship so they didn't have to walk as far. (The walk to outside the terminal is about 2 blocks.) We were dropped off near the shopping area. Our driver let us quickly stop for pictures near a pretty beach spot. We did have some other guests who were not as diligent in watching the time at each stop so that slowed us down just a little. Not the guides fault though. Overall a full tour for a very reasonable price.
A Must!
