Great opportunity to learn about Cayman. - We enjoyed the tour immensely. Our guide, Victor shared so much about Cayman. We all appreciated learning about the island, its history. The historian at St. James Castle is a treasure! He has so much to share - I would love to have him to dinner and keep talking! Queen Elizabeth Garden is gorgeous. The traditional house and the Colorful Trail were a highlight. We saw iguanas, parrots, a snake, and many other local birds while walking around. It is very hot - so be prepared. If I were able to do this again, I would pack a light lunch and have it in the gazebo. Overall - the tour was great. We did not feel rushed and were able to enjoy it.

Beautiful flowers & Great Tour - I was worried I wouldn't be able to walk around much because of a recent knee replacement but they totally took care of me. Hall drove us around in a golf cart so I could see everything & made stops along the way so I could get out & see the beautiful flowers up close. We loved our tour.

Botanical Park Amazing!! - The Botanical Park is wonderful. Many flowers. Laid out nicely. Not hard to walk through. The gift shop is very nice also. Pedro St. James was a nice historical stop to give you an idea of the history of Grand Cayman. Highly recommend.

Enjoyable tour Grand Cayman - The tour group was very accommodating when the ship's tender arrived at a different port... they met us there. We had to wait an hour for other people, who never showed up. We didn't have enough time at the botanical gardens. The Pedro St James tour was fabulous and our guide was excellent.

Interesting sightseeing - The Botanic Park has beautiful gardens. We also got to see many rare and endangered blue iguanas. Pedro St James was an interesting historic sight. We learned about some of the history and culture of Grand Cayman on this excursion.

Good tour - An interesting way to learn more about Grand Cayman. Very much enjoyed the botanical gardens. I wished we'd had more time there. It was a long ride from our hotel and so we had only an hour to tour the gardens before having to leave for the tour of Pedro St. James Castle. We learned a lot about the history of the island watching the intro film there. Tour of the house/castle brief and oddly focused on the furniture.

Enjoy Pedro St. James Castle - This was a very lovely tour. We were most fortunate to have Trisha as our tour guide. She was truly a Pedro St. James Castle historian. so animated and excited to give us so much information about the tour we almost lost track of time. I truly recommend this tour and ask for Trisha. She was amazing.

Disappointing - Disappointing. Blue iguana was cool and you can see many of them. That’s the only highlight. The rest was just a normal garden. Very difficult to get to. Front desk wasn’t friendly either.
