Mr Clouds was awesome - Chris Platinum Tours is a small family operation. We had Mr. Clouds as our guide. He was knowledgeable and very nice. He seemed to know everyone on the island. The tour had a very nice pace and at the end he took us to a local restaurant where we had an amazing meal in a place full of locals. Do not hesitate to book this tour

Had an awesome time - We were aboard the Viking sea which docked at Antigua yesterday and I am so happy we booked before hand we were greeted by the boss himself Chris who was waiting for us which we really thought was great he is pleasant attentive and has a great personality. We had our 2 kids, my wife and myself and what we liked was that they offered car seats the ride was real comfortable air conditioned.
Our favorite part of this tour was the beach the water was calm and the food was great our guide was well knowledgeable and took us into Nelson dock yard and the view at Shirley heights was superb but unfortunately we didn't walk with a camera.
We even got to taste a slice of the Antigua black pineapple I would definitely recommend these guys of your looking for an awesome time with in a budget still get drinks and water included this is the go to package you won't regret it one bit

Cudos to you guys keep up the great work and you will definitely reach far

Fun times - Didnt know I could have so much fun on a tour. I'm from New York and tours are all over in NY lol but nothing like this. Never thought I would do one but wow I must say I had such an amazing time. Chris is not your typical tour guide He was so nice and outgoing. Made me want to go again. Well I just graduated from college so I brought 2 friends with me and we enjoyed every bit of it. There's so much to see and so much to do. The beaches are so much cleaner and clear than the beaches in N.Y. I don't swim in the waters in NY but I sure did swim in that water in Antigua 😁. My personal favorite was the Devils Bridge and The Museum of Antigua love learning about another culture/Country.

ANG - Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by Chris himself, our names were mentioned on board and we felt welcomed, and with such a friendly atmosphere we had a fantastic start to our day! The guide and tour was extremely good, very flexible, and for that he deserves a special thanks. We had two great days with him, which obviously added up to the experience.
He is keen to making the tour organized. The tour program was scheduled well, and was on time. We didn't miss anything during the tour program.
He is very humorous. Chris had such a warm personality and is a highly motivated guide.
All respect for Chris who does a great job, a true sample of an excellent tour guide! Many thanks again, and I would recommend Chris platinum tours to everyone!

Not a real tour guide - Tour guide was actually just a driver with no knowledge of the island. His car had a flat tire and we needed to take a public bus back to town and then walk to the ship. Overall very poor and I feel that a refund is warranted. Many other complaints as well but I will stop here.
