Sight Seeing.... - We booked this 2 hr. tour to get familar with the island and it's history. Godfrey did an excellent job. He picked us up at our resort, and after the tour was over even dropped us off at the airport so we could pick up our rentel car. He was friendly and very knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour.

Airforce One - It was a very informative drive. Our guide known as “Airforce One” was excellent. He could drive his bus like a sports car. On these roads going up to the mountain, you will find that good driving skills are definitely needed. He knows his history and was an excellent guide.

Great tour otherwise - I enjoyed the tour but wish there went so much emphasis on the cost of houses and the cost of living. It was good when it was one reference, but it was reference too many times in the tour.

Noisy Bus - This tour was ok, but the bus was old and noisy and the shock absorbers were worn out. It was a very uncomfortable ride. We also had trouble hearing the driver on the speaker ever after we asked him to turn up the volume. We did enjoy the views… they were beautiful!

We started late and had... - We started late and had to wait for another bus from the other port. Tara was supposed to be 2 1/2 hours but lasted 3 1/2 hours and we nearly missed our ship as we arrived. Only five minutes before departure time we did and saw we’re fine.

Punctuality Issue - The meeting point was very confusing. We had to walk 10 mins to another area after asking at least 5 locals of where it is. Google maps took us to a different location based on the instructions. The guide was over 30 mins late and because we were using an eSIM, we weren't able to text Godfrey. No emails either to let us know that he was late. Once we got on, the tour was fine.

Stay away from this tour operator. - They don’t answer their phones, they don’t respond to messages through viator and viator asks what time you want to be picked up and where and they don’t show up then. We also never received a time when we should be picked up! Terrible! They also combine excursions, so we dropped some off at the beach while others didn’t have time for that as the tour started 45 minutes late! Sherry gave very little information as the intercom didn’t work?
