LD did an amazing job with all of the food, history, and cultural information. We learned so much while getting to taste amazing island foods. The Stew Chicken and Pates were extraordinary.

Great tour, good food and a knowledgeable sharing of information by our tour guide, Davi. I think our favorite taste was at Singh fast food which gave us a taste of Trinidad. Thanks for sharing!!

David was absolutely wonderful. He’s a history nerd like me so it was so fun to learn from him. All the food was fantastic and I was stuffed by the end! I really appreciated having some bites and then walking a bit. Really glad we did this at the beginning of our trip because it definitely changed how we look at the island, architecture, and the people. All hail the Queens!

This is a must do! Do not eat before the tour as you will need all the room possible for the delicious treats along the way! Our family of 4 really enjoyed it.

Marra was a super knowledgeable and awesome guide. I learned so much about the rich history of St. Croix and we saw a bunch of cool historical spots. We also ate some really great local dishes. All food stops were either locally owned, local flavors, or both. We started with a double at Singhs, had a coconut drop and cup of bush tea at the bakery across the street, had a plate of Puerto-Cruzan cuisine at Zeny’s, had a square of 70% dark Cruzan chocolate at Bleu Chocolat, had a Cruzan Confusion drink and beef or chicken pate at Rum Runner’s, got a Painkiller at Mutiny, and ended with a scoop of ice cream. I was STUFFED at the end. Definitely a great value for the amount of food and alcoholic drinks we had as well as the super rich history learned. I definitely recommend this!

The guide David is very knowledgeable. The historical info was good.. The tour itself is not worth the price. You can do just as good with chatGPT. The food is just ok except the chocolate was outstanding. If you come from a place with little to no diversity, you will think this is greater than sliced bread.
