St. George Grenada: Western Route Private Day Excursion

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

Leaving St George's behind we drive past the stadium on our right and up the scenic west coast, rich in history and colour. Concord Waterfall is our first stop, a 1.2 miles drive up a leafy lane beside a stream, dotted with Grenadian agriculture: nutmeg, bananas, cocoa, and many other plants of interest. Next stop is the nutmeg "pool" in Gouyave. You are shown the seasoning, processing and sorting of nutmegs and mace. Nutmeg products vary from syrup to massage oil, garden mulch to nail varnish; even a pain-relieving spray. We continue northward to a magnificent view of Grenada's Grenadine islands, and of the place where the last fighting Caribs committed suicide in 1651, overwhelmed by the prospect of French rule. We next take you to River Antoine Rum Distillery: the place is as antique (1785) as the rum is strong (75% alcohol - ouch). It can be hard to believe that the place is a working distillery, not an elderly museum. Despite its antiquity, it is quite well thought-out, and has environmentally-friendly aspects. By now, you're ready for lunch. Our usual venue is Belmont Estate. This is a delightful rural setting, good, varied local food from a buffet; and a cocoa bean fermentary on site. We look forward to the food ourselves. In the afternoon, we continue through La Poterie and Tivoli, then through Pearls Airport, disused since the Americans 'intervened' in 1983. Today, sheep graze under the remains of two old Soviet-built planes. After driving through Grenville, Grenada's second biggest town, we set off to the middle of the Island, to the mountainous rain forest, where we stop at Grand Etang crater lake. Then we head back to St. George.

The tour was amazing overall. However we recommend getting to the rainforest early as one of the main attractions we were looking to experience were the rain forest monkeys and we couldn’t see them. They were already hidings away as they had plenty of visitors before us.

Ronnie was amazing. The island is beautiful. The tour was everything I could have asked for and more. Saw the local culture and beauitful waterfalls. I will be calling to have Ronnie as my tour guide the next time I visit.

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.

Nice and friendly guide! We could pick the attractions we wanted to see and managed to see everything.

It was a pleasure to have this tour with Tony.It was very informative and Tony has a good humor.
