Amazing! Don’t miss out on this one! - Fantastic hike! We went as a family of 5, with kids ages 11, 14 and 15 and we all enjoyed it!
The hike is not hard and it has amazing views of the rainforest and volcano crater at the top. It took us about 3.5 hrs to hike up and down.
Our guide, Adrian, was great! Super friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and great company. He was very professional. Our only guide of the entire trip to actually arrive on time!
The home made raisin bread and ginger juice was delicious!
The mountain is very clean which was very nice.
It is not a hard hike, but you need full mobility and NO knee issues. Some areas of the hike are technical and need good mobility.
We got rain on the way back which was fantastic as it made the forest more alive and gorgeous.

Beautiful rain forest HIKE (not walk!)! Great guide and experience all around. - Our guide, Adrian, was fantastic. He shared with us the history of St. Kitts as well as other Caribbean islands. His knowledge of plants/medicinal qualities was impressive and we learned about healing teas and edible parts of plants (we tasted a "fiddle head"!). Most importantly, Adrian was flexible with our trip and was a fantastic guide and support! Oh, and we got to see a green monkey in the tree canopy!

Gorgeous - but be prepared - This hike was beautiful and Adrian was a wonderful guide. I feel compelled to add a couple of caveats though. If you have any mobility issues, just don't go. Although it is described as four miles, and that might be correct as the crow flies, you will be on foot. One of the folks on our tour clocked it at 8 miles. I clocked it at 6.5. Bring lots of water and a snack. Again, it was a gorgeous hike but it was for this fit 63 year old, a hard one.

Hiked Mount Liamugia Volcano! - This hike is not for beginners. It was very challenging, took 2.5 hours up and about 2 hours down. The view was beautiful. The trip was made bearable because we had an amazing guide. Adrian was awesome. Very informative and allowed ample time for breaks. He was educating us on the hike and was quite funny. He made the hike 10/10!

Really very exhausting - Very, very sporty. It goes up high. You have to climb up roots, big steps are necessary. We had good weather, but it would be (even) more dangerous in the rain. Our guide took regular breaks on the way up, but he showed very little consideration for the way down.
There is only a small spot at the top where you can take photos, no platform or anything like that.
I probably wouldn't do it again if I was >50

It’s a tough one! - This is a very tough hike and shouldn’t be attempted unless you are in extremely good shape. I don’t see how families are able to succeed. . Adrian & John are excellent guides who are very helpful. The Volcano Bar at the end is a nice surprise!

Great Hike but Safety and First Aid a real let down - We did the mount liamuiga hike. We really enjoyed the hike. It was definitely strenuous involving scrambling over rocks and having to lift yourself on ropes in places. Our guides were fun and informative and set a brisk pace which was well suited to our group.
However, shortly after leaving the car park for the return journey our bus crashed. Several people were injured including myself; I sustained a significant laceration down to the bone on my forehead requiring 13 sutures as well as other injuries. Whilst we appreciate that accidents can happen the care we received in the aftermath of this was concerning. No member of staff came to ask how we were and no first aid was offered. I do not think the truck had a first aid kit; none was bought out and I had to use my wife’s shirt to apply pressure to my wound. Once a replacement vehicle was found nobody from the tour company came over to see how we were, discuss next steps or offer any form of debrief / explanation for what happened.
The volcano hike is fantastic and worth doing but I think this response to an injury on their watch would make me wary of participating in a potentially dangerous activity such as this hike with this company again.

Great hike spoiled by awful guide - This is a strenuous hike that is not suitable for people who have any mobility problems. But that's not what spoiled it. The walk is beautiful, but our specific guide rushed us, told us off for stopping 5 seconds to pick up litter, and finally left us and vanished. Thankfully a different guide pointed out we were about to pick the wrong path. Frankly, I thought he was drunk. So if you get another guide you'll have a wonderful time.

A big disappointment - The description of this excursion is deceptive; it was an extremely difficult hike. Quite a few people turned around, and the one guide joked that we made it further than a lot of people, an indication that a lot of people don't make it. So don't go unless you are experienced in steep rocky climbing. The guide was in a hurry and had no patience with anyone who lagged behind at all. There were no fresh fruits offered, as stated in the description, and the fresh juice was very sugary instant lemonade. One very experienced hiker in our group who did make it to the summit also felt that the description of difficulty was vastly understated. Save your money, and, and skip this one unless you are in fantastic condition (and don't want the "fresh fruit" !)
