triptaker17 Posted January 7, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I am wondering if anyone has used Pereira Tours in St. Kitt's? We are a group of 6-8 looking for a laid back tour of the island, Brimstone Hill, and a little beach time. Any help/suggestions/opinions would be very helpful.

I have heard great thigs about Liz Pereira tours...unfortunately, I tried to book her and she had a minimum requirement that I couldn't meet.

Grey's tours I used last year and ended at the beach for a reasonable price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skipnpeanut Posted January 7, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Have you thought about the train excursion? It was wonderful, great scenery - right in the middle of things. Free drinks and snacks, and some singers. Great excursion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triptaker17 Posted January 8, 2011 Author #6 Share Posted January 8, 2011 We have thought about the train but it does not go to Brimstone forts. We like the idea of getting out and walking around if we see something we like, taking a little more time at one place and less at others. I checked out the island thread and there was only one post for the company and that came from the owner/operator and wanted another opinion. Thanks for the advice. 44 days until sail!!!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelinggrands Posted January 9, 2011 #7 Share Posted January 9, 2011 :DWe've been to St. Kit's twice & really enjoy the people.The first time our room steward was from the island & fixed us up with his Uncle's taxi service for an island tour (lots of history & culture) which ended at a small beach. Last year we took the train & again enjoyed ourselves (even though they were burning cane & we drove right thru the fire:eek:) with more history, song, culture & free drinks snacks. You might try goggling St. Kits & reading up about the island & what shopping, sights are mentioned. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits53 Posted January 9, 2011 #8 Share Posted January 9, 2011 A group from our roll call toured with Thenford Grey and had a great time. He is a very professional and knowledgable tour guide. He stops at the fort, the batik factory, and a few more spots.....at least he did 2 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukbballfan Posted January 9, 2011 #9 Share Posted January 9, 2011 We use Thenford Grey everytime we stop on St Kitts. He's extremely bright and quite a gentleman. On our last tour as we were leaving the beach I asked him if he knew of a shop that might sell logo golf balls (my new collecting hobby) of St Kitts. He said he would try to think of one as we drove back to the pier. About 2 miles down the road he pulls off on a side road and stops by this golf course...out the door he goes and runs across a fairway to two guys who are golfing...I see him reach into his pocket and hand one of the golfer some cash and the guy gives him a ball. He runs back to the bus and hands me a logo ball from the golf club. He then apologized to the others onboard for the slight delay. He wouldn't even let me reimburse him the price of the ball. I was quite impressed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a group of 6-8 looking for a laid back tour of the island, Brimstone Hill, and a little beach time. Any help/suggestions/opinions would be very helpful. We just got back from St. Kitts and did a volcano hike and tour with David from Poinciana Tours. He was really great. He does all kinds of tours, so it might be worth checking him out. He has no requirements for minimum number of people. Some of the other tour operators won't give a tour unless there are a certain number of people.

Champagne Cruiser Posted January 13, 2011 #12 Share Posted January 13, 2011 My husband and I just want to go to a beach where there is snorkeling and a few services (i.e bathrooms, drinks, shade). What is the best way to get there (don't want an island tour) and back? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrspjotter Posted January 13, 2011 #13 Share Posted January 13, 2011 We've booked with Liz at Pereira tours to take us to cockelshell beach next month - she is meeting us at the port and the driver will just take us to the beach and collect us at a designated time. Liz has been very prompt with e-mails and advice as the best beach for us as we have 3 children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putterdude Posted January 28, 2011 #17 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Another vote for Thenford Grey, we used him last January and thought he was terrific. We will certainly use him when we go back next year.:) http://**********************/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindTheGap1918 Posted February 1, 2011 #20 Share Posted February 1, 2011 We were in St. Kitts last week and used Rose and Jim's Taxi Service. We couldn't have asked for a better tour. She took us all around the island including Brimstone Fortress and Romney Manor, and then to South Friars Beach. Rose is very accommodating and you can modify your tour based on what you want to see on the island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
