Island Tour St. Kitts

[Squirty27]

Not planning on booking an excursion through the ship. Can anyone recommend a "walk off" tour group that might be waiting at the dock?

 

Thank you.

We have been to St. Kitts many, many times and there will be plenty of tour operators and van taxi drivers waiting at exit area of the pier gate in Port Zante that will be offering tours of the island. They will put together a group with the interested exiting passengers or you could do so before hand with the roll call for your cruise at

Thank you. I went to that forum. I remember someone writing about a tour that went to the -Amazing Grace Museum and I can't find it now. We don't care for a beach stop and it needs to be a vehicle with air conditions .

Thank you all.

Book private tour with Thenford Grey. His van are air conditioned. He meets you at the pier and is very conscientious and amazing. We have used him twice. He is great.

Thenford Grey is good as is Royston tours.

We also loved Thenford Grey's tour! Highly recommended

We are taking Thenford Grey's Grand Island Tour on our cruise in November. There is a beach stop at the end, but they are taking us back to the ship at that point per our request. They will also drop you off for shopping. It looks like a great value for the money and they have gotten excellent review on TripAdvisor and Cruise Critic.

"Back to the ship" and "shopping" are the same thing. ;)

Following. We'll be in St. Kitts on September 12 and I also don't want to book through RC; Ideally, we'd like some sightseeing and then some beach. Don't care about shopping - I guess it'll be a pain to fend off all the peddlers....

We used ISLAND PARADISE TOURS. We had a bus/van just for our group. It was one of if not the best tour we have ever taken. After emailing them our preferences, they designed a tour just for us.

Thenford Grey Tours the way to go. No up front cash or credit car, great tour , nice vehicles, very reasonable and pay when you finish tour. . BOB THE VILLAGES FLORIDA

I also recommend Thenford Grey. He will put together a package tour for you based on what you want to see and do. Very accommodating. We wanted to tour the Carib brewery along with all the must sees and a stop at the beach with Reggae Beach Bar. Got in all in with time to spare.

I recommend Royston tours. We did a tour with him in April and can't say enough good things about him.

We used Thenford Grey a couple of years back. One of our party was a wheelchair user and they were fantastic with him. Tour round the Island was great. We were the only ones in our party who wanted to go to the beach, we were dropped off and picked up at an agreed time. Would definitely recommend them.

There are about 4 places I'd like to visit and at this point I don't know who in our group wants to join in.

 

Can we get off the ship and find a taxi service/tour van to take us to those destinations without having to set something up ahead of time?

 

We are on the Oasis this Saturday.

 

Thank you.

You should be able to find an operator that will customize a tour to suit your needs. You will be the only ship in port the 24th.

Maybe. But with a simple email, you can arrange a custom tour and have no risk. No deposit and a reputable safe driver. Why risk it ?
