Great tour! Wide ranging with information on many aspects of the island history, culture, and bits of Christiansted. Not your usual light, glossy canned speech with simple commentary. This was thought provoking and challenging. Left me thirsting for more. If you really want a start to insight into the messy history of the island this is for you. Not for people who do like to be uncomfortable when faced with what things were really like. (It wasn't nice.) Also lots of info re various plants and uses for foods and remedies. Would go again as I think every time the content will be a bit different.

We loved Yulette's (sp?) tour! She was engaged and passionate in sharing her depth of knowledge and local oral narratives making the experience come alive.

Our guide was both knowledgeable and passionate, covering much of St. Croix's history as well as the Alexander Hamilton connections. She is a great spokesperson for the island.

Our guide was extremely personable, well informed and inspiring. My family returned after 50 years, and found out more than we ever knew living here. We saw the play Hamilton. Walking in Hamilton”s footsteps again made it all more personal. The tour was great. Our guide was the greatest. Her love of St. Croix gave me so much greater appreciation for my island home.

Not as advertised. Started out more of a history of St Croix, which we already know as long time residents. It then began as the history of slavery. When four attendees arrived very late, the speaker opted to start again and repeat with the history of St Croix. By the way there were several inaccuracies.

The guide provided information about Hamilton and the significance of the timeframe in which he lived on St Croix, but also history of the island and her people. The identification of trees and flowers during the walking tour was a bonus.
