5.00We had a great time with Keisha. She filled us in on the history and present day life on St Kitts...very knowledgeable. I'm looking forward to sewing up the Caribelle Batik fabric that I purchased.
Not worth the effort.

3.00It was chaotic at the first stop. Very little information at the sugar cane factory and the gardens were not worth the stop. Our group was overall disappointed and wished we had not taken the tour.
Best half day tour

5.00We were met on time at our hotel by Ken, the owner/operator. Bottom line - best half day tour combining both the city and the rainforest. The first part of the tour was a city tour narrated by Ken, a St.Kitts local, in a comfortable/spacious air conditioned van. Lots of chances to see, hear, and know about St.Kitts. Then, we were taken to the rainforest trail, where we were guided through a well-defined yet rugged pathway. Plenty of chances to take pics, to see an abandoned rum factory, and to trek through nature - should definitely have comfortable walking shoes. One huge bonus was there were no bugs - not one! Then, we strolled through a beautifully manicured bontanical garden filled with kaleidoscopic colors, located in the middle of the rainforest! Ken is a most gracious, knowledgeable guide - we got the sense that he was just taking us around his own backyard neighborhood where he grew up. We highly enjoyed the tour, combining the best of both the city and the natural rainforest. Highly recommended!!
Highly recommend this amazing island tour.

5.00We were so lucky to chance upon Kenrick. His guided tour was informative and fun. He showed us parts of the island we wouldn't have known about and went out of his way to ensure everyone's expectations were exceeded. What a lovely guy to take us around a beautiful island with stunning views and history.
