With the pandemic, I finally have the time to do my reviews from our trip before the holidays! We were in communication with Tony beginning in Sept/Oct for a private tour for 2 couples when our cruise visited in November. He was absolutely FANTASTIC with email communications and created a private tour with our list of places we wanted to visit, and eventually executed that tour adding on a wonderful bar on the beach at the conclusion of the tour before taking us back to our ship. He met us at the port and took us in his vehicle to a few estates for educational tours and to purchase spices and chocolate. He was a very knowledgeable and such a great guide! He was SO PERSONABLE throughout the day...from start to finish.

I had the pleasure of doing a full-day custom tour with Josh and it was incredible. We were only spending 3 days in Grenada so we packed in as much as we could on the tour. This island is gorgeous with mountains, waterfalls, black sand beaches and we wanted to see it all. Josh was ready and waiting for us in the lobby of Mount Cinnamon the day of the tour. We did the following; - Grand Etan Rainforest/National ParkM One way up we stopped to see a rainbow eucalyptus tree, pick nutmeg and taste fresh cacao fruit! - River Antoine Estate Rum Factory. Very strong rum. - Belmont Estate for lunch and chocolate tasting. The buffet lunch was delicious as was the chocolate tasting. Picked up some chocolate soap too. - Black sand beach (black is beautiful!) - Mount Carmel Falls (gorgeous natural beauty. there's a small area (hut) to change, a natural wideslide that's kid-friendly and a swimming area. The swim was refreshing). - Spice market. LOL. fun. Picked up some cinnamon leaf and other spices. Honestly, it was an incredible tour. Josh is funny and charming. He felt like family by the end of the tour. Bonus: we were leaving on a Thursday, missing the cookouts on Friday. Josh arrange for us to get an Oil Down takeaway on the way to the airport from local favourite Patrick's. So yummy. I will definitely be back to the beautiful island of Grenada and cannot recommend Josh more!

My husband and I had an amazing time on our full-day tour with Michael yesterday. Michael knows so much about the island, and his love for the country shines. He was so personable and had a fun sense of humor; it was such a treat to drive around the island with him! Tour highlights included Concord Waterfall; tasting Grenada’s national dish, oil down, which isn’t something we expected to enjoy so much but it really blew us away (SO good!!); we also loved the rum and chocolate factories; and being very fortunate to encounter monkeys at Grand Etang National Park! (The monkeys don’t always come out, so this was a blessing!) We are very grateful for Michael’s knowledge and fun personality for making our tour one of our favorite days on our Grenada vacation. Tip: Bring money to buy chocolate and also shop from the vendors by Concord Waterfall. The people by the waterfall aren’t pushy but sort of guilt you by saying stuff like “This is how I make a living. We’d really appreciate your support.” Their stuff is inexpensive and they do have novelty items like chocolate tea and nutmeg jelly; my advice would be to buy something if you’re able.
