Things to do in  St Kitts and Nevis

Great way to see St Kitts. Our guide, SQ, was very good and offered interesting information about the island. Good value compared to what the cruise ship had to offer, and we had no trouble meeting up at the pier with our guide.

St Kitts shore excursion: Nevis Beach Getaway. The tour operator was Blue water safaris. Met us on the dock; check list of all registered passengers and left promptly at the scheduled time. Beer and rum drinks on the way to Nevis included. Beach chairs available and beach side grill set up with $2 Carib beer and grilled fish lunch. Very good. Arranged a cab to adjacent town to visit Alexander Hamilton house with life history, duel with Aaron Burr, etc .It rained a little and some of our group went back on another Blue water safari boat so there was a little confusion, but our guide "Tuna" was back at the scheduled time to take us back to St Kitts. Good trip. Would do again.

I loved this tour! Annie was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable of the island of St Kitts. We got to see all the main attractions and Annnie even stopped and got us different types of watermelon to try. I wanted to stop at Shipwreck beach after the tour and Annie dropped me off and picked me up there after an hour and then took me back to the cruise port in time to get back on the ship. This saved me time! The tour was well organized and you will get to see a lot on the island. I highly recommend this tour!

My husband and I took this excursion in March, 2018. We cruised into St Kitts on a cruise ship, disembarked, and met up with our driver. When we made our reservations for this excursion we were given detailed instructions as to where, and when, to meet the driver. It went very smoothly! After a short drive, we arrived at the beach where the speedboats were waiting. We were given life jackets, told to put our belongings in the dry storage area of our boats, and then we had a brief safety and instruction demo. There were 6 boats in our outing, and it didn't take long for us all to take off! It was a beautiful day, and we all thoroughly enjoyed speeding along the coastline! We tied up in a calm area where those that wished to do so could snorkel. I did so! The water was very clear and calm, and there were many fish to see - much more than I normally see on snorkeling excursions. Some people saw turtles, but I missed those. The snorkeling spot was right next to a rusted-out shipwreck. This was not a staged shipwreck, but an actual ship that had been at anchor nearby. It was tossed ashore by a hurricane approximately 15 years ago. The wreck was amazing to see. There were ship parts strewn all about the ocean floor. Much of the ship was out of the water, and it was actually creaking! Very interesting! There was also a large barracuda that, according to our guide, always hangs out below the boats while they are tied up there. The barracuda was a little intimidating at first, but he certainly was not interested in any of us. Getting back into the boats was not so easy! It was quite akward, and did provide for a lot of laughs. We all made it back in, though, and headed back to our starting point. When we got back, one of our guides had some nice fruit and juice waiting for us. My only complaint, and it is not a big one, is that the tour was supposed to end at 1:45. However, by that time we were back on our cruise ship and enjoying lunch. I think the excursion was about 1/2 hour shorter that advertised. The time we did have was wonderful, though, and I would definitely recommend this tour! Another note - my husband and I are in our 60's and 70's, and had no problems on this excursion. In fact, we rode faster than all the younsgters! Very fun time!!

This tour was a great way to see the best pats of the island of St Kitts id you haven't been a visitor before. It was in a nice air conditioned mini bus, so there weren't too many guests on the tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable in island history and culture. We stopped at the Cairbelle batik factory and watched local ladies create their batik art which was very interesting after which you could buy products already made. These ladies are very good at their craft but you'll pay what I feel is a high price for their items.Romney Manor which is located in the same place and was the home of Sam Jefferson a distant relative of the 3rd President Thomas Jefferson. It is very picturesque and the gardens, although small are a pleasure to walk around. By far the highlight for me was the journey to the Brimstone Hill Fortress. We sat through a short video presentation which covered the history of the fort between the British and the French and then we were able to explore on our own. The views from the high points are incredible, so many places to take pictures and see neighbouring islands on a clear day, which ours was. From here we were taken to a vantage point where we were able to see the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Caribbean Sea on the other a very unique sight. There was a native Kittician on a donkey, we took his picture and then he chased us for money, so be careful who you photograph. Of course on this trip you are provided with cold rum punch to keep you chilled. Watch out for the locals with their green monkeys, they'll rob you blind if you let them. A great tour and highly recommend.

Booked this for the day as we were arriving on a cruise ship. Once we received confirmation it asked to call when we arrived at St Kitts. We were going to cancel but emailed them to see if they could accommodate. They were able to accommodate and picked us up at the cruise port. It ended up just being the 2 of us. Friendly guide who gave us some information of the island on the way there. Walk itself isn't too taxing but take the walking stick offered as it's a rainforest so there are muddy parts and rivers to cross. Expect to get wet shoes. If coming on a cruise no need to worry about missing the ship as it is 8.30 til 12 so gave us plenty of time to get back and still walk around the shop ports. We were only slightly disappointed that there weren't many animals or wildlife to see but would recommend

What a terrific tour led by the amazing and delightful Annie! Our group of four met up with Annie at the designated pre-tour location about 10 minutes early - we were joined shortly thereafter by another couple from another cruise ship in port that day January 22, 2018. Annie waited for another 20 minutes for a group of five who were supposed to join us, but they never showed up. Even after she took us to our first rum stop - Cheers, located within the Port Zante cruise / shopping area - she went back to see if her tardy customers had made an appearance. I include this here to attest to how long she waited for these customers, who as far as I know, never contacted her about their change in plans for the day. It was evident to us that Annie takes her business and her reputation seriously, and she takes amazing care of her clients. We had a delightful day with her touring St Kitts, learning about the island's culture and history, sampling incredible rum drinks, and meeting other island residents. Our stops included Cheers Port Zante Tony's Basseterre Lover's Bar ... don't recall exactly where on the island this was located but they served a mean Ting with a Sting and the best fried chicken we've ever eaten Vibes Frigate Bay and a gorgeous spot where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Caribbean Sea - this is where Annie served us her secret rum punch. If you are looking for a fun way to explore the island while sampling some delicious rum beverages, this is the tour for you - you will not be disappointed in Annie or her tour!

Really got to see a lot of the island with an excellent guide and good driver. Someone was right there to meet us at right at cruise port as we got off ship. Comfortable bus was waiting. Never had been to St Kitts before so real informative tour with a lot efficiently squeezed into the 3 hours.. We were actually surprised at how good the buffet lunch was. Resturant was attractive and interesting. Staff pleasant as could be. No pressure for shopping.

Our guide, Annie, was awesome! Our ship docked in a different area for some reason, but when we walked off the ship we spotted her right away. The tour started out exactly right with a rum punch emphasis on the rum!. Annie took us all over and told us all about her beautiful island. We stopped at Lover's Bar for our second drink. We had lots of time for pictures and a few stops to see the sites. I'm not sure the name of the third drink but it was great. We had time to shop a bit before Annie took us back to our ship. I'm cruising to St Kitts next year and have already suggested this tour to my travel companion.

SQ was the perfect guide .He was very knowledgeable about the island and took us to some beautiful viewpoints. He answered all our questions and was very friendly. If you want to see the best of the island in an unstressful way then this is the perfect way to spend a few hours. From beautiful beaches and stunning coastline to a park in the rainforest. St Kitts has something for everyone.
