Great tour guide and excellent company in St. Kitts - We were in St. Kitts for 5 nights and decided to tour the small island. Venetia, our tour operator was very hospitable and very friendly. She arrived at our hotel on time, had a cooler bag on the bus in case we wanted cold water. Due to COVID restrictions, she had sanitizers readily available for us. By the end of the tour, we had a good knowledge of St. Kitts history. We were also able to go to the shops to see what was on offer. In all, she took her time and it was a really great experience. Needless to say, We called her up the next day again!

Venitia was a fabulous guide - Venitia did an outstanding job showing us the island in a way only a local can. We loved seeing the island and hearing about its history. Going to Black Rocks was especially beautiful and she made sure we got to spend time there. What a delightful woman. We highly recommend her as a guide. She made our visit extra special.

St. Kitts Island Tour with Venitia Morlas - We were on St. Kitts for just a day and Venitia Morlas showed us around the island! Venitia was wonderful. Extremely knowledgeable, kind, humorous, and super accommodating! We stopped at the Black Rocks, Timothy Hill, took in both lovely views, and stopped for a local beer. If you ever plan on coming to St. Kitts, absolutely book an island tour with Venitia or her husband Rafael.

St. Kitts - Small Island - Friendly People - Stephen did a great job showing our group St. Kitts. The island seems fairly new to tourism, but he was very knowledgeable and answered our many questions. Sometimes I think you need to see how other people live in order to really appreciate what you have at home.

Nice Tour. Thanks. - We did a Southern Caribbean Cruise and booked some excursions but as what Forrest Gump would says life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get. Well same is true with these private cruise excursions, just pray hard that you’ll get a good one. This tour was provided to us by MV Tours and it’s a full island tour as was suggested. The pick -up was really prompt, never did wasted any minute in looking for them. I was expecting a group tour but its was a welcome surprise that we had a private one. We were even greeted by the owner of the tour company. Our tour guide on my perception was still novice but a willing to please and enthusiastic guy. The highlight will be the Brimstone Fortress which is really a sight to behold. There were some cheaper options on the dock but if you’ll get a tour like this one. I would recommend booking it.

Not worth the tour - Absolutely everything. Very inefficient. Tour guide had speaker so loud it just vibrated making it difficult to understand. Guide tour played music and spoke or tried to over music. Very poor time commitments. Did not leave on time and sat over an hour after he said it would be 25 minutes. Stopped at store to return bottle and purchase water and ice. Poorly prepared, poor communication and attitude was indifferent to customers once on tour. Tour was completely done in Spanish, which was not communicated at purchase time and the guide spoke English prior to purchase commitment. I would give a negative 5 if I could. Not recommended.
