St. George Grenada: Western Route Private Day Excursion

9. St. George Grenada: Western Route Private Day Excursion

As we depart from St. George's, we travel past the stadium on our right and head up the picturesque west coast, which is steeped in history and vibrant hues. Our initial destination is Concord Waterfall, which is located 1.2 miles up a verdant lane beside a stream. The area is adorned with various Grenadian crops, including nutmeg, bananas, cocoa, and other fascinating plants. Following that, we will take you to the nutmeg "pool" in Gouyave, where you will witness the seasoning, processing, and sorting of nutmeg and mace. Nutmeg products range from syrup to massage oil, garden mulch to nail varnish, and even pain-relieving spray. We will then continue our journey northward, where you will experience a stunning view of Grenada's Grenadine islands and the spot where the last fighting Caribs took their lives in 1651, overwhelmed by the prospect of French rule. Our next stop is the River Antoine Rum Distillery, which dates back to 1785, and the rum produced here is 75% alcohol - quite potent! Despite its age, the distillery is incredibly well-planned and has eco-friendly features, making it hard to believe that it is a functioning distillery and not a museum. Once we've worked up an appetite, we will head to our preferred lunch venue, Belmont Estate, set amidst idyllic rural surroundings. The buffet offers an array of delectable local dishes, and there is even a cocoa bean fragmentary on the premises, which we are eager to show you. In the afternoon, we will travel through La Poterie and Tivoli, then through Pearls Airport, which has been unused since the American intervention in 1983. Currently, sheep graze beneath the remains of two old Soviet-built planes. As we drive through Grenville, Grenada's second-largest town, we will make our way to the island's mountainous rainforest, where we will visit the Grand Etang crater lake before returning to St. George's.

I visited Grenada for the first time in November 2022. This tour was perfect since my trip was short and allowed me to see a good portion of the island. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable, answering my many questions about Grenada's history. Since only my friend and I had booked the tour that day, we were able to customize our trip. Some of my favorite parts were our visit to Grand Etang Crater Lake, BBC Beach, and my oil down meal at a local restaurant.

This was a great way to see the highlights of Grenada without having the annoying group of tourists, basically a private tour without the huge cost. You pick what you most want to see. The guide took us to an authentic restaurant for a delicious meal at the end of the day. Great experience!

Tony was a great guide and gave us lots of information on our tour. He steered us away from the "tourist hot spots" and gave us a taste of the real Grenada. His car was very comfortable and was a really nice guy.

Ronnie was personable and knowledgeable. The day had too much time driving due to the slow winding roads in Granada, but with only 4 of us and Ronnie being willing to customize our visit, it was fun.

Tony was a great driver and guide. He taught us a lot about the island and drove us to many places to see in the island. Great personality!
