Highlights
- Devil’s Bridge - The Devil’s Bridge is an impressive example of marine erosion. Geologically, Devil’s Bridge is a natural arch formed by the ocean’s sculpting of both soft and hard limestone strata of the Antigua formation, a geological feature of the flat northeastern section of Antigua.
- Nelson’s Dockyard - Nelson’s Dockyard stands as the largest of Antigua’s National Parks and continues to operate as a functional dockyard for a variety of yachts and ships. The dockyard has been meticulously restored to its 18th and 19th-century glory, with the historic buildings now accommodating contemporary facilities such as shops, hotels, and marina services.
- English Harbour - Charming harbourside eatery offering open-air dining along the waterfront. The menu caters to a wide range of palates.
- Shirley Heights - A prime spot for photography!
- Fig Tree Drive - Fig Tree Drive meanders through Antigua’s verdant landscape, including rainforests and towering banana plants, which the locals refer to as figs. Roadside stalls are abundant with native fruit offerings, so make sure to stop for some mango or black pineapple. En route, you’ll encounter zipline adventures and, eventually, a selection of beaches at the drive’s conclusion.
- Darkwood Beach - Darkwood Beach boasts some of the most luminous waters and pristine white sands on the island, nestled against a backdrop of rolling hills and lush tropical greenery; the vistas are both expansive and breathtaking. On days when the sky is clear, the silhouette of Montserrat is visible. As one of the island’s longest beachfronts, there’s plenty of room to soak in the scenery, and with the inviting warm sea washing over unspoiled sands, there are countless reasons to make a visit!

Worth every penny - I’ve never been on a small tour like this. Me, my Fiance and our guide Omara. She was outstanding both as a guide and as a person. The tour was informative and laid back with some rich history of the island and some fun facts along the way. Cannot say enough about our guide though. Just a great human being and in all honestly talking with her was the highlight of the day.

Must do trip! Omara is a great guide. - We had a fantastic scenic tour day with Omara. Omara was fantastic and so informative and passionate sharing about her island. The whole day was relaxed and laid back but we still managed to see a lot of the beautiful islands highlights. The transport was ac and very comfortable and there were only 4 of us. If you can only do one tour this has to be it.
We visited Devils Bridge, Betty's Hope, How's Hill, Shirley Heights, Nelson Dockyard and Blackwood Beach. Loved it all!

Best Van Trip in the Carribean - I recommend this trip if you want to see both Dutch and French Antiqua. The surprise of this trip was lunch in Admiral Nelson bay. Instead of a skimpy box lunch our guide called ahead to the Copper and Lumber hotel and restaurant and ordered a nice restaurant lunch. We dined on the patio with a nice breeze, ate chicken or fish, and enjoyed the view of the harbor. I also enjoyed that there were only 6 of us on the van so it was almost a personal tour. Definitely recommend this trip!
