.,........... - We were a little frustrated with the taxi traffic from the port, but once we got up that mountain—wow! The views made us forget all about it. The museum at the entrance was really interesting too. Highly recommend for cruise guests looking for something easy and beautiful.

Loved the sky explorer - Our kids (10 and 13) loved the Sky Explorer. It felt super safe and smooth. The staff were friendly and patient with everyone. Great way to see the island from above—definitely something different from the beach!

This was such an easy and relaxing tour to do during our stop on Royal Caribbean - This was such an easy and relaxing tour to do during our stop on Royal Caribbean. The meeting was simple, the ride up the mountain was stunning, and we had plenty of time to enjoy a snack and take photos. Highly recommend!

Don't arrive early - Don't show up at 11, when the cruise passengers arrive as check in is very unorganized and chaotic. We had reservations and prepaid and had to stand in line with those who had yet to pay . The rest of the experience was great

No communication - The lift was broke, which happens but the business did not inform us that it was unavailable. We wasted over an hour of our time driving to and from the location as well as 20 minutes talking to someone about it. I want a refund no response to my request as of yet.
