Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- cebrfox0 contributionsNice guy!Captain Sunshine was so nice! He helped me get around the island and sightsee during my entire visit. I will definitely call Captain Sunshine again next time I visit.Written May 8, 2024
- See2Grow0 contributionsMust seeGreat tour for people cruising! Great driver! We would have liked more time at the fort and some better orientation. By the time we figured out, there was a museum inside the for, it was time to go. Museum film is dated and should be updated. So climb the Fort steps, and go into the fort and into the museum before you spend time, taking pictures of all the views! Loved the beach stop at the end of our trip. Recommend highly. Great guide in an hysterical open bus, Sound system was good. Guide - Capt JR made the trip memorable and fun with stops to see a Green Monkey and taste Old Road Rum. Shop local! Beach chairs and umbrella are available for a small fee.Written March 16, 2024
- Tina P0 contributionsWonder Tour! Would definitely use again.We had an amazing time with Captain sunshine tour and services. Dominick was our tour guide and he went above and beyond. He was very knowledgeable about his beautiful island’s history. We made several additional stops just so he could share some extra things about the island. We stopped to see and hold a monkey. He even took us to see several mongoose. He took pictures of everyone on our tour at the top of Timothy Hill. He seemed genuinely exciting to share information about the island and made us fall in love with St. Kitts. He dropped us at a beautiful beach and picked us up 2 hours later right on time. We would definitely use Captain Sunshine again.Written February 25, 2024
- Ajarque210 contributionsAmazing excursionIf your on a cruise looking for an excursion on the island look no further. They took us on a detailed tour around the island and then to the beach, it was an amazing experience and very reasonably priced! Brian knows best was our tour guide, and he does in fact, know best!Written February 23, 2024
- MarcelakiMunaki0 contributionsDisappointing Rainforest ExcursionWe booked the tour through a third-party provider (Shore Excursions Group). However, the excursion was conducted by Captain Sunshine, and our guide was Captain Junior. When we booked the tour, we assumed that the main part of the tour would involve a hike in the rainforest. However, the first stop of the tour turned out to be an opportunity to take a photo with a monkey or buy souvenirs. Additionally, right before entering the rainforest, we made an extensive stop at a souvenir stand. It became clear to us that the tour was not what we had expected. The "hike" through the rainforest was more of a leisurely stroll where we occasionally stopped to admire rather uninteresting things. After about 45 minutes, our time in the rainforest was already over, and we were taken to a beach where we were supposed to be picked up after 3 hours. Since the beach was only "okay" and nothing special for the Caribbean, we decided to shorten our stay to one hour. The guide felt more like a taxi driver because he didn't provide us with much information about the island or the rainforest.Written January 9, 2024
- ceribrown140 contributionsGreat trip to see St KittsKenny was our tour guide who was very informative and a great laugh. We did this excursion from the cruise port, no pre booking needed, $25 each. Made a lot of stops along the way (rum distillery, view point) and had a few hours at Frigate bay. People who did not want to stop at the beach were took back to the cruise port, and Kenny came back for us at the agreed time. Highly recommend!Written December 28, 2023
- AndrewDC0 contributionsFriendly and customer orientedCaptain Sunshine did a great job and made my experience the best possible for my one day on Saint Kitts. Had a real friendly driver who happens to be the young nephew of the company’s founder. They really took care of me so I would recommend this tour especially for seniors like me.Written November 30, 2023

- mariatoriny0 contributionsA tour NOT to be missed!Great tour in an open safari vehicle! Our Knowledgeable and friendly tour guide, Remarkable Randal took us around St. Kitts for 4 hours and showed us all the must sees of the island. Tour included Brimstone Fortress (tour included entrance fee), Romney Manor/Carbirlle Batick (where you will see how clothing is made) Old Rum Plantation, a short hike in a rain forest, Timothy Hill snd lastly the South Frigate beach with narration along the way. This is a must!Written July 31, 2023
- NorthStar131313028490 contributionsGreat Morning with Capt KennyCapt Kenny was personable and more than willing to share information about his homeland and his childhood growing up in St Kitts. On our way to the forest, Kenny took a moment to drop something off to his mom and auntie before continuing on the tour - an unexpected but welcomed gift to meet and say hello to Kenny’s family. We were never rushed and Kenny took the time to answer any questions. Moderate hike, so where good sturdy shoes and when Kenny offers a hiking stick for use, take him up on the offer!Written May 26, 2023

- Ana C0 contributionsHORROR!!!!!HORROR!!! DO NOT BUY THIS TOUR WITH CAPTAIN SUNSHINE!!!!! It was a nightmare! Shane, the guy that should have been our guide, did not take us to the places included in the tour, he did not explain anything. Never again! We had included the Fortress in our tour, but Shane didn't bring us there. We had to visit 2 beautiful beaches, but he took us to a beach near a construction site. Nothing like paradise. We paid 198 Euro for 3 people and got nothing for that money.Written March 2, 2023
- MannySim820 contributionsWas not at all what was expectedI don’t like to knock down a business because I know we’re all just trying to make ends meet but I would NOT recommend this company. I saw them recommended in a YouTube video so I decided to book with them. I had three things I wanted to do on this trip (sugar train, ATV and rainforest hike) so I emailed the owner asking if they could accommodate me. After over 10 emails trying to get confirmation and price, they said it was all set. When I met with the company, I mentioned my email exchange and they said they had no idea what I was talking about and said that "they deal with a lot of people" and therefore wasn't sure what they could accommodate. I never mind the answer NO but don't tell me YES and then I'm stuck. They start me on the open air truck and we sat in the parking lot and waited for over half an hour. Then they moved me only off of the bus into some enclosed van (not what the tour was supposed to be). It was hot and didn't have a lot of clean windows and you could not see. The rainforest hike was not really a hike but a quick walk through the trees. The tour guide was obviously killing time and made us stop a lot while he talked a LOT (about covid no less, and how he never got it, don't care, inappropriate). It was already noon and we hadn't done anything really, I finally complained enough where they dropped me off at the ATV place, which I appreciated, but I honestly wasted 100 dollars of my money booking this tour with them and I would not do so again.Written February 20, 2023
- Wander265851759490 contributionsA pleasant day in St. KittsWe had been to St. Kitts twice before but had gone snorkeling or to Nevis. After walking down the pier and through the gates at the port, Captain Sunshine was waiting for us in front of the casino just to the right after passing through the gates. We saw Brimstone Fort, an old rum distillery (tasting $5), and Romney Manor. As we traveled through the town on our way to the beach our driver pointed out various local landmarks (churches, parks, statues, etc) and we stopped at Timothy Hill overlook for some photos. Our guide suggested Frigate Bay beach but I there are several nearby and I think you have your choice. At Frigate Bay the bar/restaurant had free wifi, beer $3, frozen drinks $9, two beach chairs with umbrella $10. Note: the dark volcanic sand on these beaches can get rather hot in the afternoon sun so you’ll want flip flops or beach shoes. After our time at the beach, we were taken back to the port shopping area and dropped off.Written January 24, 2023

I booked a 360 Island Tour with Captain Sunshine over the summer for a tour in August. He came highly recommended from a friend. When we got to the island, we were greeting by Kenny and his nephew. When we got into the van, he told us it was $300 per person cash. I told him I thought I reserved with a credit card online. And he said, no one takes credit cards on the island. So I gave him basically all the money I was carrying which left us nothing to spend on the island. His nephew offered us time and time again to stop at the ATM to get more cash but we declined. When I got back from the cruise, I checked my credit card statement and we did reserve with a credit card. I tried sending Kenny an email but he did not respond. So I filed a dispute with the credit card company but unfortunately I lost since I could not prove that I paid him in person.
This was so sad and frustrating because I really wanted to like and promote his business but I can't because what he did was wrong. Please don't be scammed by him.

We prepurchased this tour before the cruise. The meeting place was easy to find and the staff was very helpful, knowledgeable, and pleasant. The tour started on time with a friendly guide who knew all the facts and threw in some funny antidotes as we drove around his beautiful island. The stops were well timed, the van was clean, and everything well explained. Great day was had! I would recommend this group.

We have had island tours in the past, but this one stands out. Janeel Boon was engaging, informative and just fun to be with. He was flexible in allowing us to go off the beaten path and see other sights. Kenny was great in arranging this trip for us, based on our requests. Thank you Captain Sunshine!

I booked this tour due to the previous excellent reviews and extensive itinerary. Firstly I would like to start by recommending Dell, our guide for the day. He was humerus, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He definitely gets a 5/5 from us! However, our tour was accompanied by an extended family with 3 children. The first two stops they didn't bother to get out of the minibus. So they missed the lovely little tour into the rain forest which was a great taster and experience of the environment. We had a laugh with Dell as he swung from the trees and showed us the various plants growing there. The next stop at Romney Manor was equally breathtaking. We were given 30 minutes to look around but the other family spent 45-50 minutes before returning to the minibus. This was confusing as they had just asked if we would mind cutting the tour short as they just wanted to head back to a beach! (We refused to agree to cutting the tour short as we had chosen this tour after researching St Kitts). Brimstone Hill Fortress had beautiful views but we agreed to cut the visit there a little short so the family could get to the beach ASAP. However, they then insisted they we needed to stop for lunch as the children were hungry (the family had spent most of the morning snacking and there had been cafes in the previous 2 stops!). So, again, more delays as we stopped and waited for chicken to be cooked. It was then that the family realised that Captain Sunshine had put them on the wrong tour as they said they had only booked the brimstone and beach 3 hour tour. Dell tried his hardest to appease the family but he was fighting a loosing battle. Black rocks was cut short then finally we got to the beach! It was very welcome to have a refreshing dip in the sea and relax on the beach. We stayed for an hour......when we found Dell he told us the family had cut their beach visit (that they had been their main focus of the day) short and he had taken them back to their ship! So, due to the booking mix up I have to take a point off the rating as their complaining really took the shine off the day and Dell was obviously worn down as the day went on. In conclusion, it was a great itinerary with a great guide but we were just unlucky with our tour companions!

This tour was nothing like the description! Although our tour guide, Bryan, was friendly & knowledgeable, we were left aggravated & disappointed! We were never offered any complimentary soft drinks or water. Since there was only another couple with my husband & I, we were hauled around in an air conditioned van. My husband & I sat behind the other couple & could not see the sights as we quickly drove past them. Our first stop was to pet a monkey owned by the “boss’s dad” & we were solicited for tips after the monkey was forced on us. We never saw the rainforest, so we didn’t “have the opportunity to swing from one of the big tree vines and enjoy a “Tarzan” moment. Then enjoy a 20-minute break to relax, surrounded by nature and refresh with complimentary cold beverages provided.”. Nor did we stop at Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park for a photo. For the optional beach break, we were dropped off at the front door of a resort where we agreed with the other couple that we could be retrieved in 1.5 hours. WHAT A RIPOFF! When we entered, we asked where the restrooms were so we could change into our swimsuits, but at the restroom door we were stopped by an attendant that told us we couldn’t enter because we didn’t have armbands. We went back to the front desk & were told that we could purchase armbands for $3 each or the armbands were free with a purchase. We chose to rent beach chairs for $10 each, got our armbands & a receipt to use the chairs. We proceeded to change into our suits before finding some chairs on the beach. NO ONE came over to offer to put pads on our beach chairs like the others that were occupied. We had to find someone to help us. When we finally found someone, we asked if food & beverage service was provided on the beach & of course, it wasn’t. We had to go back inside the resort to order food & drinks. There was one bartender at the bar & he completely ignored us. We had to get his attention to place an order. The food was RIDICULOUSLY priced ($33 for 6 chicken wings & fries). After we placed our order for over $100 for a variety of food & beverages, we were told to come back in 15 minutes to retrieve our order! This appeared to be an upscale resort, but NO ONE wanted to work here! After our optional beach break, we were dropped off back at the port earlier than the allotted 5.5 hour tour. Although, Romney Manor and the photo ops at the Black Rocks & where the Caribbean Sea meets the Atlantic were stunning, this was our worse cruise port excursion & I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone! We would have been better off taking a taxi to see the advertised sites on our own!
