    Full description
    Benefit from pickup at your hotel or the cruise ship terminal, and then drive in air-conditioned comfort along the west coast to the fishing town of Gouyave. Pass a nutmeg factory where most of the island's spices are processed for export.    Make your way down a bumpy road to the Dougaldston Estate, and step back in time as the spice plantation comes into view. Visit the building where trays of mace, cocoa, cinnamon, pimento, or cloves are left to dry, depending on the season. Get invited to scratch 'n' sniff the leaves of various plants and guess what they are.  Continue uphill to the Belvedere Plantation, nestled in the cool climate of the mountains where bananas are grown. Travel through the lush landscape to take souvenir photos of the forest reserve and crater lake of Grand Etang National Park. Encounter native Mona monkeys, unique to Grenada in the western hemisphere. End with a stop at the spectacular cascades of Annandale Falls.

    Our tour was on Boxer day which meant that places on the stated itinerary were closed. However, Tony was more than capable of working with us and improvising a very nice itinerary, complete with great stories and conversation! Also, an excellent safe driver as we ended up circumnavigating the entire island. We’re very happy.

    We had the best tour guide showing us around, thank you Tony!

    We had an amazing trip to Grenada, and its thanks to our tour guide, Tony. Not only was he informative, he was also very kind, made us feel comfortable and had a great sense of humor. He went above and beyond to make sure that we saw as much as possible. We were able to plan our day accordingly with Tony catering to our preferences. From waterfalls, to spice plantation tours, to beaches and hikes, our trip was plentiful and left us wanting to see more. Tony even recommended a bunch of lunch and dinner spots that took our breath away. We spent two days with Tony on this tour, exploring the glorious Grenada, and it's safe to say that we would love to come back and take another tour with him! We definitely give him and the tour company five stars! If you're in Grenada and looking for a fun tour, this is the one to choose, we highly recommend it!

    The easy way to see a BEAUTIFUL island!

    From the start our guide & driver, Andre, was attentive & knowledgable. He pointed out interesting plants & trees but best of all he drove slowly making us feel safe at all times. He took us to everything we wanted to see. An excellent trip.
