Best of St. Kitts tour - I took the Best Of St. Kitts tour and was thoroughly pleased with the service, knowledge, and friendly yet professional character of our guide J.J. We were picked up from the hotel entrance and leisurely given the tour, stopping whenever and wherever we asked to take pictures and soak in the surroundings. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone!

BEST CAB DRIVER IN ST KITTS BY FAR! - BEST CAR SERVICE ON THE ISLAND! Highly recommend Sir Nigel… we crossed paths initially at the airport when we arrived, and I am so happy we did! Sir Nigel not only provides an extremely reasonable faire, but speaks fluent English and is super knowledgeable and informative! Every time we got into the taxi he provided us with new facts or a story about this beautiful island! He uses WHATSAPP so it’s easy to call for service or book advance appointments like airport transfers.. we truly tried not to use anyone else during our stay because that’s how excellent the experience was every time. I could not possibly recommend anyone else more for airport transfers, dinner transfers or island tours! We will be back this year and can not wait to use him again!!

Highly recommend! This is the best service and tour you can get! Amazing place and people! - From the first email communication to the end of the visit, this was an outstanding experience! Clear and timely communication leading up to the visit gave us confidence. Our family of six, including a one year old and an 89 year old, and various adult ages in between, had never visited St. Kitts before, and wanted to learn about the island and see the sights. Our tour guide, Raphael, was both very knowledgeable about local history, friendly, and a great story teller with a good sense of humor. From a roadside stop at a heron rookery, to Romney Manor and the Caribelle Batik site, to Brimstone Hill Fortress (a must see historic site), he gave us the local history of all the towns we passed through, from the native Caribe Indians, to Columbus and the Spanish, British and French vying for control, to Bloody River and the massacre of thousands of natives. The sites were beautiful, and Raphael was an exceptional driver and guide. At the end of the tour, we asked him to deliver some of us to the Hyatt in Frigate Bay where we had a day pass, which he gladly did, and arranged to pick us up there at the end of the afternoon to get us back to our ship, for an additional cost. We dropped Gramps back at the ship on the way. We happened to be on the island on Boxing Day, when they celebrate Jouvert, as part of their carnival celebrations. Raphael drove us through the streets where the celebrations had taken place to show us the remaining revelers, the food grilling, and the joyful folks at the end of a full day of celebrating. Raphael was an excellent promotor of St. Kitts and we will definitely be back! Our group 1000% recommends this tour and this company. We could not have asked for better service, and it was totally worth the price. Take this tour!

Good Tour - Loved learning the history of St Kitts as well as the breathtaking views. William out tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. However, the description on Viator is kind of confusing as it states that entry to Brimstone and Romney Manor are included and we had to pay. Also, no beach time. The tour was quite long without it though.

A great Island Tour with Gregory - My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour given by Gregory. He was right on time with a beautiful Escalade to show us around. He was fun and knowledgeable and this tour was a highlight of our cruise. My emails beforehand with Russell (the owner) gave me peace of mind that not doing and on board excursion was safe and going to be a great experience. If you are traveling to St. Kitts and want a great island tour and are worried about not using an excursion from the cruise line, worry no more. This was a great, private tour with an amazing guide for am amazing price. This is top notch customer service and quality. When I return to St.Kitts, I will definitely use St Kitts/Nevis Luxury Taxi & tours again.

Beautiful Island - Amazing Tour! - This was one of the best tours I have had on this island! I am a student here but there were still so many things I didn’t know about the history of where I was living. We had a 3 hour tour and learned so much in that time on what is supposed to be just the highlights of St. Kitts. To think that there could be more to show is simply amazing. Chris was very knowledgeable about everything and never hesitated to answer any questions. He also let us stop wherever to take pictures and is a bit of a photographer himself haha. Overall great experience, my family has gone on a tour with him three times so that should speak to something!

Thanks Chris !!!

A memorable trip - The drinks were great, the conversations were even better. But my favourite part was the tour of St Kitts and trip to Nevis.
