St. Kitts food tasting - remarkable!
March 27, 2022
The excursion was the best we had in the islands! Because of COVID issues, the food places we would've normally visited were unavailable. our guide had food prepared and we then at at two different stops! Food was excellent. Elvis was extremely knowledgeable and presented all info in a very professional manner. He easily answered all our questions and always provided more insight into the topics. Well worth the cost!

A great introduction to St. Kitts

While this was not your traditional food tour where you walk around a city and stop in local eateries, our guide Elvis was very friendly, provided us some delicious local dishes and showed manyinteresting sights during our 3 hour tour. Although it was just my friend and I, he still ran the tour (which I appreciated greatly - I know other tours cancel if they don't have a larger group). He drove us around in an air conditioned shuttle van and gave us a scenic guided tour. We made stops and toured around the Wingfield Estate Sugar Plantation ruins and the beautiful Romney Manor next door, as well as Hero's Park and the scenic overlook atop Timothy Hill. We also made a quick visit to Bloody River and a park containing some petroglyphs. Along the way he provided delicious Conch Chowder and then a plate containing 3 popular local foods - all very tasty! Pick-up and drop off were exactly as described just outside the Cruise Terminal and shopping area.
