More Sightseeing/Driving then Tour but beautiful nonetheless - First of all I want to give a big shout out to Tony who's fabulously personal and friendly customer service shone brightly from the moment he picked us up from the airport for our transfer to Hotel booking through the day after the final tour we booked with Vision. He set us up on this tour for our large group of 8, made our lunch reservations at Belmont and addressed the special needs of some of the folks traveling with us. The drive though long left us in awe of the spectacularly lush coastal and hilly views of Grenada. We were sort of expecting some verbal guidance along the drive (more than we received) but it didn't take away from the experience. The destinations themselves require their own reviews because they were unique and special in their own rights and must visits when you come to Grenada. This tour is perfect for the first half of your day book for lunch and have it before you take the factory tour .

Not worth it - We came with a group of 16. We were told we had to pay even though it was part of our tour. Once that was figured out we were seated. Half the group never received appetizers that they ordered. The food wasn’t good at all. The dessert tasted old. Staff did not communicate with each other. Half of the group was told we couldn’t get seconds. I do not recommend.

Poor experience - The driver showed up at our hotel to pick us up. He then had to go to the gas station to put air in his tires and put fuel in his car. He did not provide very little of any commentary on the two hour and 20 minute ride to Belmont. Once we arrived, he told us to go inside. We had to purchase the tour of Belmont on our own which was an additional $12 . On the way back, there was a little or no conversation. I would’ve been better purchasing a taxi, then taking a so-called Belmont elite experience.
