Local rumery - 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.

terrible - 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!
