Perfect Way to See St. Kitts

5.00This tour was a great way to see the island of St. Kitts for the first time. Ken met us inside the cruise port and then brought the vehicle up from the parking lot. He provided us with the history of Basseterre as he drove us through the city and answered all of our questions. We drove around the island and spent time at the distillery, the fort and Romney Manor where we got a demonstration of the art of Batik. Ken brought us to his favorite local lunch spot - the food was delicious and the juices were so fresh! Ken was happy to stop and spend time wherever was most important to us and had many stories to tell. The day felt very relaxed and he had us back to the ship in plenty of time.
Really nice tour for the whole family

5.00Five of us did this tour with Nick as our guide. He was informative and patient with us. We never felt rushed and Nick was friendly and very accommodating. We were dropped off at Frigate Bay beach at the conclusion ( by our request) and pick up by Nick later. Awesome service!
Keisha was awesome!

5.00We had such a great time with Keisha. Unfortunately, for others, we were the only ones that signed up for this great tour. Great for us as we had her all to ourselves. She is a definite asset to Ken’s tours. The meeting place was clearly laid out and she even sent a picture so we knew who we were looking for. Keisha was raised on the island so she had lots of great information to share with us. She was extremely patient during my shopping excursion at Romney Manor 🤪 and very kind to take pictures of my husband and I to capture some great memories. The tour itself offered a great overview of this beautiful island as we circumnavigated it. I would highly recommend it to anyone that wants to learn some history as well as see some beautiful scenery.
Perfect tour to see the island

5.00We had the pleasure of having Ken's brother be our guide for the day. He was friendly, professional, and a good driver. We were transported in a very clean and comfortable van. He took us on the tour as described but also made sure we saw what we wanted and had the time to explore on our schedule within reason. Note he did to attend the actual tours with us but waited in the car. He gave us the history and knowledge of each locations and we the enjoyed the time to explore on our own.
Great tour if you want to...

5.00Great tour if you want to see almost all of the island in a day! Keisha was a great guide and helped us see a lot of sites. We had two kids with us and was an engaging enough tour to keep them interested!
Excellent exploration of St. Kitts

5.00You circle the island of St. Kitts on the best roads we've seen anywhere in the Caribbean, although still too narrow due to parked cars taking up half a lane on the two lane roads. Interesting stops and sites to visit.
