We chose this as a day excursion whilst on a cruise and thought it would be a group tour. We were pleasantly surprised to find we had a private driver who showed us the island. Our guide, Benjamin, was really friendly and knowledgeable. He took us all over the island showing us various sights, and customized the tour based on what we were interested in. He was really happy to be able to show off his homeland and definitely showed us there's more to Antigua than the 365 beaches. We'd definitely recommend this tour to anyone and make sure to ask for Benjamin!

Our tour guide Gregory was amaxzing. He was entertaining and knew the island first hand as he grew up and returned for a visit and never left. He took us to many areas and we enjoyed learning and seeing the best part of the island..Great tour!!!Th

Overall this was a great tour and an excellent intelligent tour guide, Syril. We visited 3 must see sites and passed by many others. It was a great intro to Antigua and we very much recommend it. One drawback was the vehicle, a Ford Edge. We had 4 people and the back seat is not designed for 3 across so one of us was uncomfortable the whole time. That is important as this is a long winding drive all the way around the island. Most of the tour is in the car with 3 approximately 25 minute stops. Definitely recommended, especially the driver.

Benjamin, home-grown Antiguan, never been off the island, but you would never know. Hit all of the high spots on the island. Very informative about each of the locations as well as the island in general. Lot of time at each location: Shirley’s Height, Devil’s Bridge, Falmouth Harbor, Betty’s Hope, then a true locals lunch with true Antiguan fare. Thank you Benjamin for such an incredible experience. Continued prayers for your Mom.

Benjamin, native to Antigua, was personable and informative. We were the only 2 people on the tour. Vehicle was a Ford Escape in good condition. I especially liked the Devil's Bridge stop. I would recommend this tour and this guide.

Devil’s bridge and Shirley Heights were the highlights. English harbour visit is a must. Overall we had a good time.

We loved the tour. We were mostly in the car but we went round the whole island with a couple of stops. Gregory, our guide and driver, was friendly and knowledgeable. All in all it was a great way to get a feel of the island and not feel guilty about spending too much time by the pool.

Our tour had 5 people instead of max 4. It's a mini van, so 5 people inside is okay. We rushed through Nelson's Dockyard. We did not visit Shirley Heights. I would suggest to add an hour to the tour.

Vernon picked us up in a large comfortable SUV.
First stop was Devils Bridge, it was very windy here, but an excellent viewpoint.
Then onto Shirley’s Heights, two different viewpoints here.
Then down to Nelson’s Dockyard / English harbour for a tour guide led tour round the facility. This was stunning.
The tour was conducted at our own pace with enough time to look around each stop. Vernon was very knowledgeable about the Antigua and its history.
Thoroughly recommended.
