On our shore excursion to the island of St. Kitts we booked the volcano hike with Poinciana Tours after reading reviews on tripadvisor...and we were not disappointed! Exhausted, and muddy, but definitely not disappointed!! David was extremely easy to work with online, and even called me to confirm our booking. He went out of his way to make sure we... More

When my wife and I signed up for the hike, we thought it would be a nice little walk up the mountain. Boy we were we wrong. The hike involved quite a but of clinmbing over rocks and trees, and several older people on the trip had quite a bit of trouble completing the climb. I would not recommend this... More

We booked our hike of Mt. Liamuiga through Ponciana Tours and had an excellent tour guide David. The hike is 6 miles round trip. The beginning of the hike is fairly easy, however the second 1.5 hours of the hike are over boulders, sleek rocks, and intertwined roots. A good shoe with traction is a must. The view of the... More

We visited St.Kitts while on a cruise in March and wanted to do something different than the usual cruise ship organized excursion. After reading reviews on Trip Advisor about Poinciana Tours we decided to book the Volcano hike. The hike is approximately 2 hours each way; perhaps longer depending on the size of the group. We were provided hiking sticks... More

This was quite fun and I highly recommend for people who like adventure and are more on the fit side. Some of the pictures we saw in the reviews had scared us but our guide, David, (owner of Poinciana Tours) assured us before the trip that it was not dangerous. Our 13 and 18 year old boys could hike it... More

We did the hike with David and Lance of Poinciana Tours. We all were very happy with the hike and David's arrangements and guiding were excellent. Trip information: The hike is about 3 miles one way and 3000 ft of elevation gain on a well traveled and maintained trail. In places the trail is very steep and requires scrambling up... More

We booked this tour through Thenford Grey, we were debating between Thenford and Ponciana and I don't think it really matters who you chose because there are only about 5 guides that go up the mountain and they work for both tours. Our guide picked us up in a vehicle that had a Ponciana sticker on the window. Thenford did... More

This hike was the hardest thing I have ever done physically but was also one of the most incredible things I have ever done. This was my first hike and what an introduction to hiking. It was NOT "a walk in the park." There was a beaten path, but to reach the top you were required to climb up steep... More
