This was one of the better walking tours I have been on! Rochelle was informative and entertaining. She taught the group about various different aspects of Nevis and answered everyone's questions very well. She also kept it fun and adapted the tour well to the scattered showered we experienced. Overall, great time!

We booked the tour through our travel agent's site. It was cheaper than going through Princess Shore excursions. We were met at the ship's dock with a 12 passenger van and had lots of room. Our guide was "Spoonie", Annie's husband, and he was funny and very informative about all that we saw. The stops were just the right amount of time as to see everything and not get bored waiting. We saw alot of things and it gave us a good review of the island. I would book another tour with them if I visit again.
