          Best Excursion Ever
          We did the Antigua Jeep Safari. This excursion was amazing, and our guide, Yohan, is the reason why. We did this trip our first full day in Antigua, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. Yohan took us all around the island and taught us so much about native plants, interesting landmarks, insights into the local culture, and even helped provide a delicious outdoor picnic lunch with other guests and guides before finishing the day with a splash in the ocean. Best day of our trip! Thank you, Yohan!

          Jeep tour
          This trip was wonderful. We went to Antigua so my son could learn about where his father was born and this tour did all of that in one day. It was so worth the money.

          Amazing Land and Sea Adventure!
          We booked the Land and Sea Tour through Sandals and had an amazing time! The trip started off exploring the island through an open air bus and it was cool getting to see most of the island. The roads are a little bumpy and winding but that is common on these island tours. The vehicle was nice and comfortable and had seat belts. After that we boarded the Mystic catamaran for snorkeling, lunch, and beach time and it was amazing. All of the crew members were so amazing on the Mystic and made sure we had a great time. There was an open bar and the lunch was delicious. Snorkeling was also great and we saw so many fish! Overall a great experience and we had so much fun!

          Lovely trip with a great crew
          We did this trip via our resort. It was well organised and good fun. The crew were very friendly and keen to share the rum punch! It is billed as a romantic activity but there was more of a party vibe in keeping with the island style and that was fine with us. Good range of drinks available and some hors d'oeuvres were also shared, including cake which the gulls seemed to know about as they started following the boat at that point! Nature is amazing! The boat wasn't crammed with people so you could move around quite freely. Ship style toilets available. A lovely trip around the north of the island, with good local information shared by the crew. We the doubled back to go the other way which was also lovely. Sunset was pretty and we had some good tunes. On our trip some old rocker (we didn't recognise him but the Americans seemed to) was on board so we also got rock-serenaded (?) by him, and got to listen to his new music, which was a bonus. This was a lovely way for us to start our holiday.

          Antigua Land and Snornel with Island Routes
          There was a 3 hour drive though Antigua country side, pointing out native trees, grasses, and other vegetation. This was followed by a snorkeling trip on their reef, and lunch on board afterward. We were not impressed with the drive and don't recommend it. The snorkeling was the worst, as the reef was dead, bleached white coral, and extremely devoid of any marine life. Nothing to see except an old tire. The crew on board the catamaran was unprofessional and did not give any kind of safety briefing on board or instruction on what was to go on during the day. I DO NOT recommend this tour or this company.

          Amazing experience with Friends
          Captain David, Kimba and Dino were great hosts. Stingray City was very cool and the pictures taken there are extremely reasonable and well done. The entire trip around the island was amazing with a great lunch, snorkeling and rum punch on a secluded beach!! Would do it again if in Antigua.,

          Best cruise ever
          We had a terrific time on the cruise. The crew was informative, the drinks were good and the view was beautiful. Our sunset photo is one of the best we've ever taken. It was the highlight of our time in Antigua and we couldn't recommend it highly enough.

          360 Power Tour w/snorkeling
          Transport from resort to port at St John's was included, which was preferred to picking up at beach (got full 360 of island). Ride was fun, although hard to hear audio descriptions to various points of interest (we were sitting right on bow). Music was great and a fun atmosphere. Snorkeling equipment was sanitized in bleach and fit well. Snorkeling provided belt float which really helped. There was alot of swimming involved. Saw a couple turtles and small fish. Shoreline of island is beautiful and rugged in many places. Run into English Harbor to see yachts was interesting too. Lunch and drinks were good. Overall pleased with trip and felt it was worth the price.

          Get ready to drink rum, zip and paddle!
          Thoroughly enjoyed this day! Even though this wasn't intended to be a highlight, I really enjoyed just sitting in the back of the vehicle and enjoying the scenery as we traversed to our activities! I think the kayaking, the snorkeling and beach time was the best time for me; we saw a bunch of turtles at Turtle Bay so that was cute! The ziplining was fine but felt a little short. Beyond that, the meal provided was the best meal that I had on my entire 12 day trip and the tour guides were personable and fun! Akeem was a great driver so shout outs to him! Side note - I don't know what the heck they put in that lemonade but that was the best tasting, most refreshing lemonade I ever had in my life!

          Great way to spend the day!
          The views were amazing and the staff were very kind and friendly! I ended up getting sea sick and the staff really took care of me. The food was top notch as well! Shout outs to Ray for bringing me a conch shell since I wasn't feeling well enough to go snorkeling!

          Tour shuttle never showed up. Did not receive a refund or communication yet.
          Booked a horseback riding tour today. The company never showed up. Myself and several others staying at the Royalton Antigua was never picked up. We waited about two hours from the time of pick up. They never gave us a local contact number so the hotel also had no way of reaching them. We sent an email requesting a refund. They were quick to respond asking our confirmation number and now we have not heard back. I do no recommend.

          A really good day
          Definitely worth trying this excursion. Started off with the ziplines. Massive thanks to all the staff but especially Connie who just made everyone relax, enjoy but made sure safety was at the forefront of everything. We had a great time, from there it was to lunch which had a beautiful view and then on to the Stingray city team to start the Kayak part of the excursion. Again at all times safety was put first but everyone made sure it was an enjoyable experience. Theo (I think) was our guide and he was extremely knowledgeable and hilarious. Little added touches along the way as well as seeing turtles and the snorkelling makes for a really good day out.

          Great excursion!
          We had a great time! We didn't do the kayaking component but rather the full zip tour and challenge course at the end. The staff were great with our group, which had some folks who had never done the zip line and a few kids who were very nervous. They were incredibly patient and professional. The site was well run and we had a blast zipping through the canopies! It was just enough time - relatively close to our resort (Sandals) and short enough to go back and still enjoy the beach and pool.

          Overpriced and oversold
          This trip was sold as a luxury seafood buffet with snorkelling and beach stop. We travelled from our hotel on the catamaran as far as St John’s where we sat in the smelly harbour for half an hour whilst more guests got on. From there we had a lovely informative cruise round the coast, then went onto a beach where yet more guests got on. By this time, there were approximately 70 + guests. We were taken to the snorkelling site, given lifebelts to put on, I had broken fins (luckily we had our own masks and snorkels) 70+ guests then had to get into the water - what a palaver. We were told to stay with one of two guides but with that number of people it was impossible so as experienced divers / snorkelers we broke away and hung back only to be herded by one of the crew in a dinghy back to the group. After being hit by someone’s fins, seeing someone with only one fin going round in circles and watching someone sit on the coral we aborted and went back to the boat. Lunch was very over sold. Luxury seafood for which we had a special ticket!! Was overcooked rubber lobster, no sparkling wine. This was served anchored up on a busy beach and I think guests only got off to wee in the sea as the onboard toilet was blocked. The only saving grace was the pleasant staff and the entertainment they did. Overpriced and definitely oversold.

        The company made everything simple, had a car pick us up and take us direct to the boat. The cruise was fun with great rum punch, and the snorkeling was georgous. Great time overall, and would totally book with this company again as they made all 3 of the tours we booked simple and easy.

        Fabulous day out today on the explorer catamaran in St John’s Antigua. The crew were very attentive and the lunch was fabulous and we learnt a lot about the wonderful island. Would highly recommend this trip.

        Before booking this tour I went to the Island Route Team at Sandals Antigua and asked if the coral was alive as the island has suffered with recent hurricanes
        A phone call was made and I was advised the coral was alive
        When I went out the coral I saw was white and dead!
        The brochure shows a lovely live reef and this is not what I experienced.
        You also have to wear a yellow belt, which hampers your experience if you get caught in a current!
        You also have to swim out approx half a mile from the boat, then across approx half a mile, then swim back to the boat.
        There was only two guys in the water for over 50 people and a small boat
        The crew were excellent, the food was poor.
        Going to the site we were given a lot a information about the island and points of interest.
        There was a party vibe on the return trip, but I went for the snorkelling and this was disappointing
        I did go back to the Island Routes Team and they were unhelpful

        *Likely to sell out: Based on Viator’s booking data and information from the provider from the past 30 days, it seems likely this experience will sell out through Viator, a Tripadvisor company.
