They picked us up right near the cruise pier and gave us a delightful tour up the coast, showing us fishing villages, fun points of interest, and gorgeous sites along the way! They were so kind to take photos of us all... stop anywhere we wanted for a fun moment... and kept us well hydrated along the way! (Rum punch was amazing! Waters and beers and cokes as well!) When we arrived at Soiffre, Jalen was our "tour guide" and came with us to the mud…”

Spend seven hours aboard a private 43-foot Leopard catamaran from Rodney Bay, with Captain Andy, Eli, or Winni possibly among the crew. Cruise Marigot Bay, see the Pitons from the sea, swim and snorkel, and enjoy lunch, drinks, and hotel transfers.

“Best part of our vacation. I do not think I can ever do the boat tour with a 100 other people now. The crew was very attentive, Amani makes a mean margarita. Lunch was super delicious. We got to see Sugar Beach and Jade Mountain resort beach without driving for an hour. Remember to use that sunblock though, the sun is intense, you can get burned when you snorkle. There is plenty of shade on the boat though.”

“Enjoyed the tour and Fabian was very informative guide. Lots to see and do with no rush for activities. Only downside thought the banana tasting would be at a persons plantation site and rum tasting would be at a distillery not by a road side. Disappointed as we did in another country which was exceptional.”
