This is a great way to see scenic and interesting areas of the surrounding areas of Port of Spain, the highlight being Fort George. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and punctual. Highly recommended!
I really enjoyed my city tour. They even accommodated my request to see Fort George. My driver/guide Calvin was very knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend this tour!
Great tour and education on the Magnificent 7 buildings. Maracas beach was relaxing and you have to try the traditional bake and shark sandwich, delicious. Our driver, Mitch was on time & pleasant! Recommend this tour
Trina it was a pleasure having you guys thanks so much.
Amazing Calvin was an excellent driver and tour guide. He deserves a raise and promotion! I would recommend doing this tour they will pick you up from your hotel, airbnb and house drop you off back home. I did everything I wanted from Maracus beach, parliament, Queens Savannah park and etc.
Tricia as i always say its you the Travelers that create the experience...thanks please do come again.
Our tour guide was Mitch, and he was both super flexible and very knowledgeable- so when he realized we didn’t want much beach time, he added a visit to the historic fort - amazing views. His narrations were interesting and informative, and he made us laugh along the way. He got us fresh coconuts to try, a rum sampler, cold water and a “Bake ‘n Shark”sandwich - DELICIOUS! Also stops at the famous church, the WW I and II monument, a walk down the street with the seven castles/mansions, and much more. A very quick stop at the mall for souvenirs and something we forgot on our way back to the ship rounded out our excellent day. Mitch - you spoiled us! Highly recommend!
It was so nice to meet yall...thanks for everything.
Mitch, our guide, was friendly, knowledgeable, mature, responsible, and kind. He did a great job addressing our questions as he showed us the sights around Port of Spain, then took us up to Maraval and Maracas Bay and back again. While only so much customization of a tour can reasonably be expected, we could tell that he was responding to our interests and preferences in terms of the things he showed us along the way as he listened to our questions and comments. It was also helpful that he kept us up to date and engaged ahead of the tour via WhatsApp. Mitch made us feel safe and cared for, and he made the tour a lot of fun!
Without yall good spirits and energy the would not of gone well thank you so much looking forward in seeing you again.
Mitch made the experience so personalized and I had a wonderful time! You HAVE to book this tour! You won’t regret it!
