We had a wonderful time on this excursion. We were given an excellent history of the island as well as information about food, groceries, schooling, road systems etc. The boat tour was refreshing. We did not snorkel…it would have been difficult for us to climb the small ladder back onto the boat. Instead we swam at the beach and had a few cocktails at the bar. We docked at Mahogany Bay. Independent tour guides are not allowed to come to the port area for pick up. We took a taxi down the steep hill to meet our guide. The cost was $2 US per person but well worth it. The tour was allowed to drop us off at the port area on return. There were 14 clients plus the guide and driver and we found the van rather cramped and difficult to climb over to get into the back seats. Talia was an excellent guide. She was very friendly, spoke very well and had a great sense of humour. We all enjoyed her commentaries and our conversations with her. We were back on the ship in plenty of time.

This was my second time visiting Daniel Johnson Sanctuary and it was so much fun. We got to spend a good amount of time with the animals and our guide was great. The rest of the tour was awesome, we got to visit a rum factory, a chocolate store in the Macaw Market, and eat at a local restaurant. Our tour guide Eric was very nice and told us a lot about the island. Snorkeling was amazing too. I would highly recommend this excursion!

We had an absolute BLAST!!! Will recommend to anyone and if your really lucky you'll get our tour guide Ron Wittaker♡
