- Aymee1800Great Excursion with One HiccupExcellent tour. Perfect for the first day on the island. We really enjoyed having Jerome, a.k.a Topgun as our tour guide. He was not only knowledgeable, courteous, and extremely professional, but also funny. If you have him as your guide you will have a great experience. He went out of his way to make sure we had a good time. The only problem was the lack of clear communication on the pick up location and time. Juanita sent us a text message and an email two weeks before the tour saying that the meeting time had been changed to 10:30 am. We called in the morning of the tour to confirm the meeting time and were told by Juanita that we had to be at the pick up location by 9:30 am instead. We rushed down but still it was unclear which end of the dock. It would make sense if they make it clear and state the end of the pier by the parking lot. Once there it was apparent the rest of the guests did not receive that time change message, we ended up waiting an hour more than we had to. We couldn’t understand why they made us wait for no reason.
- ekahern00MILL'S ISLAND TOURSMy wife and I were fortunate to have booked an Island Tour with Millard Lightbourne which couldn't have been better. Mills met us right as we exited the ship in his comfortable air conditioned van and took us from the dockyard to St Georges and back covering all of the famous sites and then some. As a lifelong Bermuda resident, along with 50 plus years of touring, his knowledge of the island and its history is second to none. Do yourself a favor and reserve a tour with Mills and not only see sites but learn a lot about them and the beautiful island of Bermuda.
- Marilyna R00Island Wrap Around Tour is Everything you need to know BermudaOur experience at the Island Wrap Around Tour of Bermuda was spectacular. On the first day of our cruise we were able to visit all the most important stops in Bermuda and pick where to spend more time the following days. Both Juanita, owner of Bermuda Island Tours & More and Jerome our guide were top notch. Jerome is knowledgeable, kind, patient and a blast. I would recommend 100%. Our group had people from all ages and they were all very pleased with the bus, the service and the information shared. We will be back!
- Irma C00First time visitors to Bermuda.We arrived with a cruise ship and as we were first time visitors to Bermuda, we thought that an island tour would be a good way to get to see and learn about Bermuda. Our tour guide, I believe his name was Tony, was knowledgeable and interesting and did not disappoint. The mini bus was comfortable and clean. We would recommend this tour.
- rlaroche00Mill's Tours is the one you're looking for, in Bermuda.This was our ninth trip to Bermuda. We met Millard at King's Wharf. There were 4 of us. We booked him for a 5 hour tour of Bermuda. We gave him no destination or instruction, and asked him to drive. Nice air conditioned van. Bottom line, it was the best island tour we've ever had. 81 years on the island has treated him well. Our tour ended up being closer to 7 hours. No extra charge. One of the nicest gentlemen I have ever met. Do yourself a favor, and ask Millard Lightbourne to show you around. You will not be disappointed...
- debt59100A comprehensive island tour with an outstanding tour guide.We booked Millard Lightbourne, Mills Tours, for a comprehensive private (Premium) day-long tour of Bermuda recently and couldn’t have been happier. From the Dockyards to St. George’s, he provided an informative commentary the entire tour and we felt like had a true sense of the island and its history by the end of the day. We visited the popular iconic attractions and also secluded beaches and parks that were off the beaten path. Millard is a knowledgeable, passionate guide and provided a comprehensive experience customized to our interests. His daughter Gizell was a pleasure to deal with in setting up the tour. We would highly recommend an island tour with Millard.
- Joel W00Bermuda tripWe did the mini bus tour of Bermuda while at port on our cruise. Our tour guide I believe his name was Thomas was excellent, he had a lot of knowledge of the island and was very good at showing us as much of the island as possible. We also stopped at a few places and had lunch or just walked around. Bus was clean and comfortable.
- EdSalyards00Book this tour.Great tour to start to learn about Bermuda. Top Gun (Jerome) was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable being a 4th generation Bermudian. Good value on the price. Highly recommend.
- Jim R00Millard Lightbourne is a GEM!One of the best travel decisions we've ever made. Millard met our party of four right off our ship at King's Wharf, and the rest of the day was awesome. Mill is extremely knowledgeable (he's done this for many, many years), and keeps himself up to date. We never felt rushed the entire day. This is an excellent way to see as much of the island as you possibly can, and it was well worth the price. In fact, Mill's tour has whetted our interest to return to Bermuda some day.
- LuckyBird2500Millard RulesWe wanted an easy tour of Bermuda when we docked on Celebrity in May. We were very lucky in having 'Millard' as our tour guide. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and very entertaining. He made our 1/2 day experience all-encompassing and enjoyable. Hats off to Millard!
- KitaNu00Great tour to see Bermuda!Andre was great! He was knowledgeable about the island and gave us lots of time and opportunity to stop and take pictures. He also made a great lunch recommendation at The Wharf where we had Wahoo tacos and the traditional sandwich. He also introduced us to the Dark & Stormy. This was a great tour I’d recommend it for anyone!
- J1932GIlaurab00Great tour!Nice overview of the island at a fraction of the price for the excursions offered through the ship. Our tour guide did a great job. Highly Recommend!
- 134AmyP13400A great taste of Bermuda!Highly recommend this tour and our wonderful guide Andre! Andre made the tour exceptional. He is a native Bermudan so his knowledge of the island and its history is extensive. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour that included a short stop in Hamilton and lunch in St George. Lots of beautiful views along the way. We were blessed with a beautiful sunny day also.
- gmckee5800Exceeded ExpectationsWe used BIT&M for our shuttle service to and from the airport. If the service and the attentive interaction is the same as the tours, I would highly recommend these tours. (If you are looking for hotel shuttle instead of a taxi all the better) Juanita Jones is very quick in responding to your requests, and the drivers are friendly and personable. I was extremely impressed.
- harste00TerribleThe tour might be great. We never took it because we had Covid and had to cancel our cruise to Bermuda. The tour was booked through a Trip Advisor company called Viator. We tried to cancel, in advance, and our request was ignored. Later we requested a credit and was refused. When I tried to call Trip Advisor, they sent me to a law firm that charged for their service. So, beware of cancellations. This is my 181st Trip Advisor review. Almost all are very positive, but this review.

Crystal caves was on my must-visit list and it didn't disappoint. I decided to tour both the fantasy & crystal caves and although it was an experience by the end of the tours, I would have been happy with just touring the crystal cave. The fantasy caves was a smaller scale of the crystal cave. The formation of the crystals was amazing and the number of years it takes the formation to collect to get to a certain size is incredible. One thing to remember when your guide tells you to be careful of hanging crystals when walking LISTEN. One person in our group didn't pay attention and get a pretty nasty cut on her head. If you read this post and visit, I would like to hear your thoughts.
After the tour, you can walk to the swizzle inn and grab a bite. Check out my review on the swizzle inn, to be posted soon.

Juanita was very accommodating of the weather during our time in Bermuda. Instead of doing the beach visit the first day while it was raining, she offered, free of charge, to have another driver take us to the beach the next day as the weather was better. Furthermore, she offered us ferry tokens to stay in Hamilton for longer and to be able to go back to the cruise port whenever we wanted with the local ferry. A text is sent out the day before to confirm your attendance and meeting time. Juanita and Tony, the driver for the next day for the beach, were very informative and entertaining with the commentary on the bus ride.

This is a great trip. We visited off of a cruise ship and had NO issue finding the tour guide, getting around, and getting back to the ship on time. It was also cheaper than booking through the cruise line. Caves are BEAUTIFUL!!

Michael was our driver to come back to our cruise ship. I have never met a more generous and kind guide! He took us back instead of the ferry and gave us a tour of the islands with commentary and all. All with a personal touch and friendly mess. He deserves 6 stars!! Thanks a million Michael! It’s people like you who are making Bermuda a top notch destination! We will be back! Mission accomplished!!

This was our favorite part of our trip to Bermuda! We were a party of 9 and Tony our driver went way out of his way to make it awesome. He actually started early and took us on a tour showing us so many beautiful things and places! I highly recommend this company and Tony. Oh and the crystal caves were amazing.

The thoughts of visiting some caves did not fill me with excitement, however, these are on a different level, they are in excellent condition and really interesting. Our guide (whose name I forget - sorry) was excellent and made them more interesting. The story of their discovery is unbelievable.

While on a cruise with NCL Escape, I went to the Crystal Caves with 3 family members. It was so incredible to hear about how the caves were discovered and to learn about them. They are AMAZING and well worth seeing while in Bermuda. I'm definitely putting this back on my list of "to do" when I visit Bermuda again.

We thoroughly enjoyed the cave tour. Our guide was charming and funny and yet when you asked serious questions - he was well versed and knowledgeable. There's a good story about how they were discovered - some laughs about people losing cell phones when the looked over the railing and some interesting effects created by lighting. The tours were just the right size for the caverns and the price was a reasonable tourist price.

It was beautiful! The only reason it didn't receive an excellent rating is that the ocean was too high to see the entire cave. A definite must if you like to see different things in nature. It is also nice and cool in the cave. Wear shoes appropriate for walking on wet surfaces. It can be slippery. I would definitely go back.

Hello, I have two questions:
Are we allowed to swim in either cave?
I have 9 people in my party. Can the transportation cover all of those people or would we have to travel in 2 separate cars?
Our ship arrives at 10:30am on Nov. 4. What time you the tour start and would pick-up & drop off be at the pier?

hi, how many floors generally we can compare with when we need to get to the Crystal caves, we have somebody in the party who is low athletic, just want to make sure that she is up to that adventure. thank you.

I would not say it a hard or high level activity, but do take in consideration there is an un paved path to get to the caves and narrow path and uneven step inside the caves.

This nay be a dumb question:
We are in port from 8a-4pm.
This shows availability only at 2:30 and its a 6.5hr excursion. Therefore, is it safe to say it isn’t an appropriate option?

Just take a cab to crystal caves and see them and walk across street tonswizzle in for snack and drink. Go back to ship and shop, so you don’t cut it close last minute to get back to cruise ship
Is it possible to visit the caves on our own? Can we cab it from port?
CATHY T

Yes definitely. And if your not in rush you can take public bus back to cruise ship
