Basseterre Food and Walking Tour

Our tour guide, Raquel, took my son (age 36) and I (age: retired) on a tour of St. Kitts and did a fine job of explaining the sites of the town. We sampled local food and even got to climb the tower of St. George's Anglican Church! The view from the top was epic! Raquel was pleasant and answered our curiosity questions very well. We felt like old friends by the end of the tour. All-in-all, it was a very enjoyable several hours and I'd recommend this tour. Since it's a walking and eating tour, be prepared with sunscreen, maybe a hat, comfortable shoes or sneakers and your appetite! Note: The silly people at Viator who designed this survey wouldn't permit me to submit it without checking one of the boxes below. Yet, none apply since it was a father and adult son, not a father and child or teen. I checked "Family (teens) in spite of the fact that my son hasn't been a teen for 17 years just to be able to submit this survey. Duh...wake up, Viator.

The highlight of the tour was the codfish and Johnny cake samples at the beautiful Palm Court Gardens & Restaurant. There was also a sampling of BBQ, tea, and curry samosas at other venues during the tour. The guide was very informative and there was also a brief respite at a local church in downtown Basseterre.

I did the food and walking tour on 5/17/19 and even though I was the only one, the tour still went on. It was very interesting to hear about the history of Basseterre and to try the different foods. I highly recommend this tour.

From gorgeous hillside garden appetizers to streetside BBQ pork to Indian takout my tummy was happy happy happy! With a perfect amount of walking in between to learn a bit about the town and island, a visit to a historic church and city park, and a refreshing glass of lemongrass ice tea it was a perfect day. Glen is a super friendly guy and I really appreciate him not canceling the tour despite me being the only person registered that day!!!
