This beach was recommended to us and we went while on a cruise. Make sure you ask to be dropped off at Spice Mill section of the beach which is lovely. Our driver brought us to another area not as nice. I can only think that he gets a kickback for bringing tourists there. On the return trip when we asked why he didn't take us to Spice Mill he said he forgot to ask us (we wouldn't have known anyway, but still...) But do go to Cockleshell Beach. The scenery on the ride is magnificent!

Elvis from Gibraltar tours and taxi was so entertaining and informative, we learned so much about the history and culture of St Kitts. His sense of humor and fun added to the enjoyment. Elvis took us to Romney Manor to see the beautiful gardens and batik making and he took time to identify the plants and to take our photos. We then went to Brimstone Hill fortress a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an amazing and well kept site. Once again Elvis took time to explain about the history and gave us as much time as we needed to explore. We did not want to spend time on a beach but we did go to the scenic Timothy hill. We also stopped at an egret colony and saw monkeys. Elvis dropped us off in the center of Basseterre so that we could go back and photograph some of the town sights he had pointed out earlier in the day. We loved St Kitts and would like to return - Elvis we will look you up when we do, you were fantastic!

We were our Driver Elvis’s only two passengers. As we were both early & the ship was leaving at 4.30 we agreed what was important for us to see & set off. Elvis is a lovely man & was informative & coped really well with the hazardous roads & jam caused by a breakdown at the Fort. An interesting trip. Don’t bother with the Shipwreck Bar. Too busy, scruffy & restaurant staff rude but you might see a real free Monkey & Mongoose there. The next beach club Carambola further up was fabulous but like many of these beaches you hire a bed & brolly for the day & it’s only worth it if you are staying more hours. All in all a great trip seeing some fabulous sights, getting great pictures & learning all about the culture of Basseterre.

My husband and I were fortunate enough to have the tour guide and his van all to ourselves. Elvis was an excellent tour guide!! he was entertaining and educational for the entire tour. Highly recommend this tour!

We booked this tour last minute from our cruise ship,and I am so glad we did. We had plans to do an ATV tour in St. Kitts, but my husband injured himself on the cruise ship's Flowrider (stationary surf board). We booked this excursion as it would accommodate my husband's newly acquired folding wheel chair. (I am happy to say that he is now home and working towards a full recovery). The tour itself was great. Elvis, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable about the island's history and its people. My favorite parts were Brimstone Hill Forest National Park - interesting history and great views. South Friar's Beach was beautiful. The Beach Club was perfect - nice open restaurant with good food. There was also a nice changing area and showers to use after. The van we traveled in was comfortable, modern, and airconditioned. The service and care that Elvis provided was above and beyond. We ended up with a private tour as it was at the end of the season, and no one else had booked. First, I appreciated that Elvis agreed to take us on the tour last minute, knowing he would only have 2 guests. Elvis was also so helpful getting the wheel chair in and out of the van - and when he saw I was struggling with the chair on the uneven surfaces, he jumped into help. Since we were the only ones on the tour, he let us set the amount of time we spent at each destination. If you are traveling on a cruise, have no fear, Elvis will get you back to the ship with plenty of time to spare. Thank you, Elvis, for taking such good care of us. I would not hesitate to book with this company in the future.

We really enjoyed the Brimstone fort - even in the rain. The views were amazing from the top. Our guide told us all about the history of St. Kitts and the port city. The botanic gardens were beautiful. We weren't prepared to go to the beach, so our guide took us to a view area of Frigate Bay which was a completely different side of the island. Beautiful island and good tour to see a good variety of sites.

It was an excellent tour with a lot of interesting information shared about the formation of the cave and the stalagmites and stalactites. Beautiful scenery at the compound and many other things to do while you’re there. Very friendly people. The roads to get there were rough at best, so if you have any painful medical problems (new breaks, recent surgeries, etc) you may want to postpone.

Very informative...really enjoyed the tour! Didn't feel rushed, had time to enjoy each stop and take pictures.

This tour was extremely interesting and fun! Elvis was our tour guide and was friendly, knowledgeable and a lot of fun. He was very patient with us and stopped for any photos we wanted. The beach was beautiful on a hot day. I highly recommend!

My guide and driver Randy is very helpful and enthusiastic. He introduced the buildings we passed by really clearly. And I exactly had a great experience in Saint Kitts. Highly recommend it!

The tour itself, as far as the places visited, was fine, as was our driver/guide. He was friendly snd courteous and gave us lots of great information. However, the transportation was awful. The seats set up high and there was almost no leg room for my husband. There was a wooden panel blocking our view to the front. The sides of the van had metal panels about half way down the windows, so we could see very little out the side windows. My wheelchair was not truly secured and leaned to the left the entire trip. There was no air conditioning snd the windows did not fully open so it was extremely hot. Altogether a miserable experience.

Elvis was the best. Very knowledgeable and stopped for photo ops. Beside the normal stops.Good driver too

There are no shortage of tour guides offering a tour on their open-sided bus (usually a pick-up with bench seats) and the lure of free beverages. I confess it was the name that got me, but if I recall he was involved in botany and when he wasn't working he is a tour operator. There were around 10 of us in his group, so introductions were swift and we all got along well. He gave us great stopping places, photo opportunities, a visit to a deserted sugar plantation, the first "Free Town" i.e. no slavery and beautiful scenery. He was informed, happy to respond to questions and serve up the rum punch and Caribe ....what more could you want!
