Dean was very sweet, and not your usual tea experience. First it’s private, just your group or twosome. Mini tour of island, but local areas and history in some of the hotels. I have been to Bermuda 10-12 times and this was almost ALL new. Stops to smell, feel and experience some of the local flora and fauna. Deans garden where ALL the herbs used to make the tea were gotten fresh. This is were the experience is really different, tasting 4 different teas with the mixture of herbs that were just picked with dean. Some snacks to nibble on while doing tasting. A lot of sharing with Dean as I am a cook and tea drinker. This is something that I would definitely recommend for anyone who really wants to see and learn about bermudian life.
Dean was an excellent host for this experience. He drove us around the island for about an hour stopping at some of the most scenic areas and explaining historically important events. Then we went to his house where he picked herbs from his garden and made us three different kinds of tea. Additionally we had scones and other treats. 100% recommend Dean and this experience!
Dean was our tour guide and was fantastic. The tour was better than advertised. We were the only 2 on the tour and got to see parts of the island. He makes homemade tea from plants in his backyard. He spoke British English and was easy to understand. Very polite and well mannered dude. Would highly recommend.
