    Great way to see all of Antigua
    We stopped in Antigua on a cruise and had a lovely day exploring the island. Our guide Marvin was awesome - knowledgeable, friendly, engaging and made us feel like family. We saw Betty's Hope Plantation, Devil's Bridge, Shirley Heights (The Blockhouse and Lookout views), Nelson's Dockyard, and driving through various parts of the island. The local rum and black pineapple were delicious. It was a great way to see all of Antigua!! Communications by email were prompt and booking was semi smooth. We had a slight hiccup with a children's price and then ended up booking/paying the full tour amount instead of 50% deposit like the website says. No problem, just something to be aware of. We'd absolutely use Antigua VIP Tours again!

    Informative, enjoyable tour with a five star guide
    Keisha is an amazing tour guide. We just got back from a five hour trip with a kick-ass tour guide who was very informative about the island, as well as charming, good hearted and kind. We traveled in her comfortable, air-conditioned van, and saw all the main sites. In between, she continued to educate us about the history and beautiful people of Antigua. I recommend this tour for anybody interested in the history and culture of the island, especially those who would like a semi private event (we were with one other couple).

    Best Tour Ever!
    My husband and I had a wonderful tour with Terry. His amazing personality made it a fun trip and he was a wealth of information. We saw all the scenic spots on the island and now have a good grasp of the history and geography of Antigua. Since it was just the two of us, Terry personalized our tour making a couple of extra stops along the way. We always try to take a tour of any new place we go and this was our best by far. We felt we really got our money's worth and then some and highly recommend VIP tours to everyone.

    Like everyone else I did my research on doing a tour. Terry came highly recommended. Terry blew us away what an incredible person he is. Terry knowledge of the Antigua history was spot on. What really surprised us was his knowledge of the vegetation on the island.Terrys personality was perfect for our group. Ask for Terry tell him Hi from Jeff In Canada

    Complete View of the Island
    This tour was well worth it! Our tour guide (Tony) picked us up promptly at our resort and whisked us away on a fun adventure that allowed us to see the gorgeous island of Antigua and all of its important visitor locations and then some. Tony was very knowledgeable of the area and even treated us to sweet local treats along the way. The tour ended up being almost a full day, and while Tony offered to stop for us to have lunch, we went heavy on breakfast, so we didn't stop. (keep that mind) Also, it was suggested to bring towels etc., but despite bringing them, we didn't end up needing them. Tony did an incredible job to accommodate us and our touring needs! 10/10 would recommend to family and friends.

    Brilliant 4 hour private tour
    We had a 6hr layover and wanted to experience and see Antigua… Sean was brilliant. Sean picked us up from the airport on arrival, and customised a tour of the island, taking into account our time and interests. Incredibly knowledgeable and proud to showcase his home, we were able to ask anything about the island, the community, life and the history - it was a perfect tour for us. Highly recommended

    Spectacular scenery and gifted Guide
    Spectacular tour which gives an interesting insight into the country of Antigua. It’s fairly comprehensive and a good way to decide which places we might be interested in re-visiting. The best part was our guide, Terry. He was informative and very personable. I especially appreciated how sensitive he was to the interests of the group. A couple others were especially interested in photography—so he took us to a couple of extra places that were especially photogenic. He appreciated questions and interactions. Very highly recommend.

    Best tour I’ve been on!
    I cannot recommend this tour enough!! Sean, the tour guide is absolutely incredible. He clearly loves Antigua and is very passionate about his job. He’s very helpful, so much fun and extremely knowledgeable! We got to see so many places on the island and I did not feel rushed at all at any point! If you’re going to do anything in Antigua, do this tour! Thank you Sean for an unforgettable experience!

    Outstanding guided tour of Antigua
    We had an excellent tour with Terry. He made our experience of Antigua unforgettable. We appreciated his local knowledge and expert driving. He was able to get us to all the stops we wanted in our short time in port. I would highly recommend this tour.

Thank you, thank you to Tony, our tour guide.
We had a 5 hour private tour and were lucky enough to get Tony.
He was very knowledgeable about the island and it's history but more importantly, he was easy to talk to with a sense of humor.
We went to Nelsons Dockyard, Devils Bridge, Shirley Heights and to the Cultural Center for a very informative short film
He took us to a local restaurant where we had authentic Antigua dishes, included in the price.
You will not be sorry if you book this tour to learn about this beautiful island and the wonderful people who call it home.
Leave your comfort zone and leave the resort to learn about this lovely place and it's people.
You will e happy you did, especially if you are lucky enough to get Tony

Spent the day with Sean exploring the beautiful island of Antigua! He was so great, social, personable, and will answer any questions you have! His number one priority is making you happy and will do anything to make it happen. I really wanted to see Half Moon Bay so despite being out of the way, he said no problem let's go! You make the itinerary 100%. Drinks during the day and lunch are included, we stopped at a local place for lunch which was yummy! He even got us some black pineapple! He really went above and beyond to make the day memorable. And even took pictures for us! Totally worth the money and if/when coming back to Antigua would 100% use this tour company again. It's less money than doing a group tour and it's totally custom! Hands down you should book it!

Alvin was a wonderful tour guide and my mother and I had a perfect full day tour with him. He was extremely knowledgeable about Antigua and the surrounding islands. He chose the perfect stops and shared interesting anecdotes about the history and culture during the drives in between. Five stars and would recommend to everyone!

We just returned to our ship on Christmas Day after a day tour with Terry of Antigua VIP Tours - Private Platinum Tour. In a word Terry is AMAZING! He is very knowledgeable and quite the island historian. We would just love to have a guide like him on every private tour. We have traveled to over 100 countries, toured with numerous private VIP drivers and we must say Terry is world-class. Our lunch at Shirley’s Landing was delicious. Terry was mindful of the time and managed it very effectively as we really got a good feel of the beauty of the island. The van was comfortable and Terry treated us with the courtesy of royalty. He took us to his favorite hide away beaches. It was very special to see how he cared for his fellow Antiguan by hailing them on Christmas Day. We even had the opportunity to meet his son whom he clearly loves so much. What a kind and loving man. Do yourself a favor and go with this tremendous company it is worth every dime! We felt heaven shining down on us this Christmas 2022 as we got the gift of the best tour guide and tour company in Antigua. Finally, Terry’s great wit and keen sense of humor kept us laughing the entire time a gift we shall cherish for a very very long time. Thanks Terry you are truly THE BEST.

Initially the time we wanted was taken, so the company contacted us to offer different times. After choosing one they double checked the time/place and told us to pack for whatever we wanted to do.

The day of the trip the guide (Tony) was waiting for us early and asked us what we wanted to do to make sure we scheduled accordingly.

First of all I have to say Tony is VERY knowledgeable about the island and the history which prompted us to perform a quick visit to the museum as he was giving us history all the way and a few jokes too.

He went out of his way for us and first we arrived to the market area where we got the elusive black pineapple, gooseberries and tamarind too. We also entered a small shop to taste Beef Patties and Jerk Chicken Patties which were delicious. This was besides the museum which is close by.

Afterwards we chose a few things from the normal schedule. We were in awe with the views and the beaches, simply breathtaking. He knew the good spots for pictures, so we have a lot of great pictures for the future.

Last but not least the Devil’s Bridge is breathtaking. You actually feel the water spray on you and the water is really aggressive. Great to have your own pictures of this.

Nobody knows a place like a local, thus this tour was worth every cent.
10/10 will tour with them again.
Highly recommended!

We hired Antiqua VIP tours on a recent trip. Sean was our guide. He was very knowledgeable and took my wife and I all over the island. Sean picked us up near the cruise dock. He was able to time the time most of our tour to beat out the regular bus tours so that when we went to the sights there was not a huge crowd. We first went thru St Johns and then we crossed the island to the old British Navy base and Shirley heights. We also went to Dickenson beach, which unfortunately was very crowded. However Sean took us to nearby Fort James beach which wasn't and we stayed there for a few hours drinking rum punch and swimming. It was very nice. We recommend Sean & Antiqua.

We had a wonderful day with Sean. He picked us up at our resort and we spent the day seeing the gorgeous countryside and all the tourist destinations. Sean asked what was most important to us and he did not disappoint, including lunch at Caribbean Taste. We were impressed by VIP’s mask compliance and on-board hand sanitizer. This was our second tour with VIP and we highly recommend them when you’re in Antigua.

We had a great time, our guide was both friendly and knowledgeable. The vehicle we had was comfortable and air conditioned. We saw all the major sites and were able to stop and walk around and take pictures even stopping on the sides of the road to take in the beautiful scenery of Antigua. We stopped for lunch at a local restaurant and had an authentic meal of curried goat and roti. After we continued the tour of one beautiful place to another winding back at our ship. What a great experience we had!!!

Sean arrived on time to our resort and welcomed us aboard the very comfortable vehicle after properly establishing Covid-19 protocols. Once in he asked everything we would like to do and see, and he delivered on all of it. There were no hidden fees or upsales, and all fares to the parks were covered including the fare for lunch at a local eatery. We had freedom to walk around how we liked and thoroughly enjoyed the trip!

This trip was excellent from start to finish. Alvin was courteous and very knowledgeable about the island.
The trip covers all historical sites on the island, Alvin was able to answer any questions we had.

The restaurant that we visited for lunch served typical Auntiguan food, there was plenty to choose from on the menu.

All in all a very enjoyable day, we would thoroughly recommend.
