Review of Antigua’s Turtle Beach Power Snorkeling Adventure, with sea scooters, turtles, shipwrecks, photos, transport tips, and honest value advice.

“We had a wonderful time, the guides were excellent and friendly and we got to see sea turtles, eagle rays, squid, and many colorful fish. Using the scooters for snorkeling was a first for us and made the experience that much more fun for all. We would definitely do this again and recommend to others!”

“1. Our guide, Robert, did a great job. Very friendly and informed. 2. Smokers had evidently been permitted in the vehicle. Though the vehicle was very clean and the odor somewhat faint it was very definitely there. Non-smokers can always tell and always really don't like it. 3. The tour did not cover all the spots mentioned in the on line portrayal. Two things we did not do were: Dows Hill Institute; 30 minutes at a beach (we swung by Long Bay Beach (which was cited as a longer visit) and Morris Beach. WE carted our beach stuff with us in anticipation of a brief beach stay. On the other…”

Review of Antigua’s beach-hopping tour, with Valley Church and Jolly Beach, small groups, transport, costs, timing, and practical tips.

“Ffryes beach and Jolly Beach were gorgeous. We didn't like Valley Church beach as it was more rocky and fishy smelling (also on the same bay as Jolly beach so would prefer to have skipped this beach in exchange for more time at Ffryes or Jolly). The guide was good and so nice to lend us floaties for our kids in the water!”

Swim with free-roaming stingrays in Antigua, with resort or cruise-port transfers, snorkeling gear, a cocktail, and 70 minutes in the water.

“It was great, the sting rays were friendly but not overly friendly! We had Jerome pick us up and give us an island tour en route from our hotel. He was great and such a good guide! We missed our initial slot as traffic was bad so he took us to see a bit more of the island while we waited for the next slot. 10/10 for improvising and giving us an even better experience”

Review of Antigua’s Green Island and sea turtle trip, with early beach access, snorkeling, small groups, transport, drinks, and practical tips.

“Secluded beach. But we were just dropped off and left there. A tent was set up but no chairs which made it very uncomfortable for seniors. Only saw one sea turtle. Not what we expected. Did a small tour of Green Island but would not recommend this tour. The dock we left from and arrived back to is not safe.”

Review of Antigua’s Real Island Tour, covering St. John’s, Nelson’s Dockyard, Shirley Heights, cricket, beaches, costs, and practical tips.

“Captain Crystal works hard to show you a good time. IF U don't have fun UR boring and not living! Ms Crystal took us to many interesting places and more based on our interests. She teaches you a lot of history about the island and repeats details to make it memorable and connect the dots. FYI You do have to pay UR entrance fees at some stops arms they are not included in tour price so budget accordingly and bring cash or card. Pickup and drop-off from our hotel was a big plus. We got to see a big part of the island over 5 hours and we skipped the…”

Explore Antiguan history, a pineapple farm, Fryes Beach, local food, steel pan music, and island stories on this four-hour tour.

“We had the most wonderful day with Marlon doing a tour of the island today, visiting a local Antiguan home, a pineapple farm which has recently been replanted and going to Ffreyes beach. Who knew pineapples grew in the ground… we certainly didn’t! Yvonne and Brian were so welcoming allowing us into their home. Ffreyes beach was exactly what you would expect from a beach in the Caribbean, turquoise waters, reggae music in the distance and the most beautiful white sand, away from all the crowds. Marlon shared stories about the island and family, which were so interesting. Heavenly tours is a tour company run by local people and we…”
