    terrible
    Lisa_S, Aug 2021
    after confirming pick up time several times, the tour operator never showed up, I was left waiting in the lobby of the hotel waiting for pick up and they texted 10 minutes after the pick up time to say they were not coming, it wasted an entire day of my vacation since I could have planned something else for that day, do not book this tour!!!! zero stars!
    Response from Host, Aug 2021
    You changed your pick up location several times, and your last pick up was way too far from your initial one. Very sorry the driver could not get you, that would have delayed the whole tour. You were of course fully refunded.

    This was an incredible tour. They spent hours with us. They explained the history of their distillery and the trauma that brought it about. It was like visiting family and the rum…..y’all …..book this. You won’t regret it. And we made it through customs with all our new booze!

    What an amazing tour that was! I was delighted to be driven to some very authentic and local distillery. Very friendly people very knowledgable and responsive. I am myself a beer brewer and all my pointy questions were answered. The degustation of local organic rhum at the end is the cherry on top. Fwere we were, I would definitely recommend.
    Fantastic tour!
