Grand Cayman Hell and Turtle Farm Orientation

Interesting Daytrip
August 27, 2022
We had a good experience with Expedited Order service; staff was very accommodating. Turtle Farm was an amazing ecological presentation; very interesting to see so many sea turtles at different life stages & all they’ve done to repopulate the Caribbean. Hell was pretty much a non-event but just seeing some of the island’s beauty along with the guide’s stories gave a little taste of life on Grand Carmen.

A great excursion, in what turned out to be a unusual time. The day of this tour, March 9, 2020,there was a huge dump fire on the island, which caused major traffic issues. Nevertheless, we were able to do and see everything that was on the schedule. The driver was knowledgeable and personable, outgoing but not obnoxious. His enthusiasm for Cayman was obvious. The size of the tour was just right for personal interaction. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Went to hell and back and all around the Grand Cayman Island with Tim who has lived there for 30 years and was very entertaining. He even took our postcards back to hell so that they could be post office stamped after we wrote the cards at the end of the tour. The tour was about two hours which left us time to walk about Georgetown and we discovered the national Museum which is on the main street and was three floors of displays and well worth the time avoiding the souvenir shops

March 09, 2018
I highly recommend this tour. The directions to get to the office were effective, the tour driver informative about the sites and his special country and there was more than enough time at each location to see what they offered, take pictures and shop. It was interesting to see a turtle meat butcher shop a block from the preserve but what should I have expected given the popularity of Turtle soup! I also appreciated this tours length. There was enough time after it for a walking tour and shopping downtown. Get your head out of your shell (pun intended) and have fun!

Like the title says our tour guide was very friendly and showed us around the island. Hell was a bit underwhelming. I did send out 2 postcards from Hell so that was interesting. The turtle farm was educational and we got to hold onto some baby turtles. Supposedly there is another package where we could go into the water with the big turtles but this one was just with the baby turtles. Not an exciting excursion but I was satisfied with learning about the island and seeing what life was like.

interesting visit with turtles
February 19, 2018
The visit with the turtles was interesting, and we learned a lot about the effort to replenish the number of sea turtles which are almost extinct due to over-harvesting in the past. The "visit to hell" was not so interesting--I saw little to this, though it is an unusual geological formation. I know it is a small island and there may not be that many really wonderful places to visit, but the tour was probably as good as could be put together for those not interested in swimming, snorkeling, etc.

This was a nice short excursion and we when we returned we had some time to enjoy local drinks and do some shopping. We enjoyed this excursion.

Third we've always heard about Hell (and have gotten post cards from friends from there) but, now we can say we've been to this local iconic spot(not a lot to see or do there - just cool to see and have been - and yes the Devil himself was there like he has been for all these years)

This is one of my recommended excursions for anyone traveling to the Grand Cayman who wants something easy to do. The van was very clean with working air condition. The driver was friendly and cautious. They drive on the right side. Our driver didn't mind helping people in our group with their two strollers. He pointed out various buildings along the way as well as provided a some history of the island. Our trip to Hell was interesting and enhanced by speaking with the Devil. The shop worker Mel (?) was very helpful with helping us send a postcard from HELL and stamping our passport!! The formation in Hell is a rather unique travel attraction. Bring your camera. Everyone in our group LOVED the Turtle Farm!! They have thousands of turtles of all sizes. A highlight was getting to hold some of the turtles. If you do this excursion make sure you watch the short film as well. The Turtle Farm is an excellent choice for anyone traveling with children.

There is also a restaurant and water park at this facility(which we did not experience) which looked kinda cool. Stopping at Hell is a novelty. Got a shot glass and a post card after looking at the actual thing they call hell for about 5 mins.

Our cruise line did not have any openings for this excursion. It was very well organized, and we had a great tour guide. He allowed us enough time at each stop to explore and learn. I would use this service again.

Grand Cayman Hell and Turtle Farm
January 09, 2014
We were traveling with our disabled daughter and her disabled fiance and could not do watersports. They had looked at what Grand Cayman had to offer and requested a visit to both Hell and the Turtle Farm. Shore Excursions Group provided us with what our cruise ship didn't offer - the perfect tour for wheelchair users.

I really did enjoy this excursion. Our guide ""Dennis"" was great! I learned about the cultre and all about the islands as we traveled with Dennis. The turtle farm was very interesting and informative. When we visited hell, Dennis was quick to answer our questions and was very knowlegeable about all subjects. I would do this again every time I return to the Caymen Islands.

A nice excursion with a tiny bit of Hell
June 28, 2012
My daughter loves turtles, so seeing lots of sea turtles was quite a treat for her, including her able to hold baby ones. Only con on this was on the conclusion of the video a big sign for ""Turtle Burgers"" on screen crushed her a bit. The trip to Hell was small but facinating, it really looks so unique and we got to send some postcards back home for cheap.(which have ""Hell"" stamped on them now) Only suggestions for this excursion are a stop at the beach for a bit - we passed by it but that was it. I think 20 minutes there would make this excursion perfect.

We were able to find the meeting point with ease. The tour guide was very experienced and gave us a lot of information about the island. We stopped once for a photo opportunity and then we were on the way to Hell. Hell was what I expected. A tourist stop. However, I thought it was neat that we could send postcards from Hell. Make sure to send one to yourself! Then we went to the Turtle Farm. It was so amazing. It exceeded all of my expectations. The tour guide walked us around the farm and gave us plenty of time to look at the turtles and gave us the opportunity to hold and touch the turtles of multiple sizes. We were also given time to explore on our own. Can not brag enough about this buisness. He even stopped at a place to let us get a free sample of the rum cake. Great Experience!

We enjoyed the turtle farm but was mislead on the timing. We didn't realize that the trip included an island tour. We thought we had 2 hours at the farm. There was clearly not enough time to do the things we wanted at the turtle farm. It was great though -all the kids loved holding the turtles.

Pet and interact with turtles
February 03, 2012
We visited ""Hell"" then went to the turtle farm. Hell was fun and unique--EVERYONE there was very friendly and accomodating. It was fun to play with words -- ""Welcome to Hell; Have a 'Hell' of a good day; etc."" Very unusual but we really enjoyed it. Then we went to the turtle farm. We got to touch, hold, pet, and interact with the turtles, then visit the resturant and EAT turtle burgers if we wanted to. I wasn't crazy about trying turtle meat after just playing with them, but I do have to admit, it was pretty good.

When we got to port the meeting place was only half block away which was awesome since we had two in our group with minor health issues. Hell was a unique experience but did feel a little rushed. We had a short stop at Tortuga Rum Co. Then off to the Turtle farm which was one of the highlights of my trip. We got to hold some of the smaller turtles weighing around 10lbs and if you wanted to hold a med sized turtle weighing around 35lbs.all you had to do was ask. Our guide was every knowledge and comical at the same time. All in all a Great excursion and will book it again the next time we are in Grand Cayman.

The turtle farm is very exciting and both adults and children will enjoy it. Hell may be a bit boring for children, but they would like seeing all the iguanas that the guide points out. Overall.....great!
