Janel the best tour guide on Antigua - Janel was the most amazing tour guide we have ever had - even if she did get my husband hooked on chewing sugar cane 😂😂😂 Seriously you won't find a better tour guide. We had to be back on the ship for 2pm so she tailored the tour to make sure we saw all the best bits of Antigua. We laughed the whole time. Thank you Janel from your mad Welsh customers.

Janel is THE BEST - Janel was fantastic and so knowledgeable about all aspects of Antigua. We especially enjoyed learning about the medicinal uses of so many plants on the island. We highly recommend hiring her for your thorough and entertaining experience while in Antigua!

Best tour guide on Antigua - We came to St Kitts on a cruise and ran into Janel Baird by chance. We were looking for a tour of the island and Janel delivered. She took us to all the important sights and then to a beautiful beach for a couple hours. We thoroughly Enjoyed our time with her as she was so knowledgeable and friendly and we just loved her ! You must get Janel to show you around when you come to Antigua as she is the best

This is who you want to hire! - OMG!!!! Janel was freaking AMAZING! I randomly booked Exquisite Taxi and Tours for a transfer to Dickinson Bay. Her knowledge and infectious laughter was an added bonus! We ended up hiring her for the entire week! Honestly, it will be your loss if you do not book with her!

Memorable Mother/Daughters Tour - The most memorable time was our friendly down to earth guide, Ms. Janel. She let us alter the tour to meet my daughters request to see the donkey sanctuary. I highly recommend this tour. We were able to try fruits and see the trees they are grown on. We ended our tour with a beautiful beach, swim and lunch which she prepared for us. I will use her again in the future. The van was extremely comfortable and easy to get in and out of for touring.

Best trip with Janel - Our encounter with Janel Baird was one of the most memorable and exciting, from beginning to ending. My aunt was looking for a tour driver but didn’t have anyone in mind. She found Janel, and learned that she was from my village. We didn’t know that she met Janel. A few minutes later this young woman greeted us with an infectious smile and a brief introduction of herself saying “you are my Guyanese people”. As we started to introduce ourselves we learned that she was from my village and lived in the same street. Her pleasant, friendly demeanor was captivating and soon we were on our way. As the tour of the island began Janel gave us a brief history of her beautiful island, Antigua. As we continued, she pointed out all the native fruit trees and fascinating places of interest, allowing us to take photos wherever and whenever we wanted to. Janel allowed us as much time as we wanted to enjoy the breathtaking views. She also allowed us to sample some of the island's fruits, like guava and took us to pick guinep, which were delicious. Her cheerful laugh, funny jokes had us engaged down memory lane about our village people throughout the tour. She took us to meet her husband and we talked to her father. Janel is a super hostess, and I would recommend her taxi/tour service to anyone visiting Antigua. We met as strangers and parted as friends. ❤️❤️

Great tour of island highlights - Our guide, Janel, was amazing. She went above and beyond as we were lucky to even experience Carnival while visiting in August 2024. We saw more than offered on site and her husband made us a great lunch! I highly recommend this tour of the island as we saw some amazing sites and learned alot about the culture.

Value for your money!!! - I was recommended to Janel through a mutual friend who visited Antigua in May 2023, and I am so grateful for the referral. From the moment I met Janel, she made me feel like family with her warm and welcoming personality. Her knowledge about Antigua's history is impressive, and she shared fascinating stories and insights throughout our tour. Janel's exceptional service exceeded my expectations. She not only guided us to the most beautiful and significant sites on the island like the devils bridge and shirleys heights just to name a few, but also made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves every step of the way. She also treated us to the best mouthwatering grilled chicken wrap and refreshing fruit punch that added a delightful touch to the day. Her enthusiasm for Antigua is contagious, and it made my experience unforgettable. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and friendly guide in Antigua, I highly recommend Janel. She truly provides a unique and memorable experience.
