Very enjoyable and professional tour of St. Kitts. Highly recommend. - Mr. Chris James met us at the port as promised with our name displayed on his laptop. He was dressed very professionally and his vehicle was immaculate. He gave us a full tour of 'downtown' Basseterre before heading off to circumnavigate St Kitts. We stopped for photos at an acient sugar/rum mill and then went to Romney Manor. This is a nice stop to walk around and watch the short batik demo. We didn't buy anything. Cost for entry $3 each. Then continued on and up to the Fort. Admission $15. Incredible views, great exhibit; strenuous climb to top if you're not in shape. We continued around island. Chris's wife even baked us raisin cake treats--a very nice touch. Stopped at lava rocks. He pointed out his primary and secondary schools and gave us a very strong background on the island, the local politics and the people. The cost was $70 each before tip. With admissions and tip it ran $98/per person for the 2 of us. Lasted just under 4 hours. He had arranged for a beach admission, but we decided to skip it. He was gracious and knowledgeable throughout and very helpful. Highly recommend.

The best tour in St.Kitts - Exceptional Service! I initially contacted the company's owner (Russell Gregory), and he was welcoming to talk about my tour choices on the island. I choose the luxury panoramic tour because I love to take pictures. They were timely and courteous. I was very impressed with how the tour led me to the island's most beautiful and amazing sites. My driver stopped at several historical sites, so I could enjoy the scenery and take pictures. This company is your taxi and tour choice in St. Kitts and Nevis.

Best Tour on the Island - From the ease of booking process to our experienced and knowledgeable driver, I highly recommend the St. Kitts Panoramic Tour. We were able to get a tour of the island that included light refreshments. We saw all points of interest with ease and efficiency. My family and I enjoyed this experience and we highly recommend it.
