St. Kitts independent or Cruise Excursion?

Recommended Posts

We are trying to find some options of island tours other than the Princess excursions.  We will be arriving on May 24.  Our time is 8-6.  We like scenery, history and learning about local culture.  Any suggestions, or should we just do the Princess excursion?

 

Thank you for your thoughts!

We used Thenford Grey on our recent visit.  Very good tour, well organised, you can pay via PayPal and I would highly recommend.  Thenford is a very nice and engaging guy.

Would you mind sharing which cruise you took through this company? We are in port the same day as the original poster "2806"." Thanks in advance!

We did the Grand Tour.  We met them at 9am and I think we got back at 4pm but they will check your ship arrival and departure times.

 

It began with a brief tour of Basseterre  before we headed up to Romney Manor.  Thenford escorted us around the gardens, giving great information about the various plants etc and he and his nephew made sure we all got great photos. We were not rushed and had time to look around the batik making area and grab a drink at the cafe.

 

From there we went up to the fort where we had plenty of time to have a good look round.  After that we drove to Friars Beach with a stop at Timothy Hill to get the view across Frigate Bay.  We were given around 90 minutes at Friars Beach so plenty of time to enjoy the beach, have a swim and also to get a nice lunch from the beach bar (the jerk pork sandwich was great).

 

We had great information from them ahead of our tour, confirming times etc and also arranging PayPal payment if required.

Many thanks.  The information is most appreciated!
