Enjoyable morning hike! - Our rainforest hike was wonderful. David is herbalist at heart and knows every plant and its heath benefits. We traveled through the botanical gardens, saw a batik demonstration, visited a run distillery, walked through the quiet forest and ended with a smoothie at a little store by the distillery. For a small fee he took us to the beach and then brought us back to our ship. I highly recommend this tour if you are in St. Kitts. You do not need to be in tip top shape but will walk up hill and on a rocky path for a couple hours. Enjoy!

Rainforest hike - My husband, two daughters (ages 15 and 16) and I did this tour. We all enjoyed it. It includes the Caribelle Batik, the grounds of the oldest sugar plantation and the rainforest hike. Our guide, Zidan, was really knowledgeable, engaging, and informative. The hike was mostly all-levels, but it did get a little tougher terrain towards the end before we headed back, but this seems to be adjusted depending on what kind of difficulty-level the hikers are/want. If you are looking for something to do in St. Kitt’s, would recommend!

An unexpected gem of a... - An unexpected gem of a shore excursion! Our guide Akeem was fantastic and our group was only half full and made it such a better experience.

What a Hike - There seem to be two very different types of rainforest hiking tours that you may be on when you book this. A lot of the reviews we read described this tour as exploring trees by the zip-line area near the old rum distillery with a focus on plant uses and maybe some animals and the hike wasn't too strenuous. Then there's the hike we somehow were booked on. 4 hours+ round-trip of quite strenuous hiking up 3,000 feet to the edge of the dormant volcanic crater. It was an amazing view at the top, but we weren't expecting that and at several points we weren't sure we could make it all the way up. It's not at all clear how they decide whether to give you the relatively easy hike or the very difficult hike. So better ask. We are glad we did it, and the 5 stars is because it was an experience we won't soon forget. But there ought to be two different tours if one is relatively easy and one is hard. The Mount Liamuiga hike we ended up on is described online as "a strenuous hike through rainforest and jungle over limbs and rocks; totally doable for those who are fit, adventuresome and limber." Again, just be sure to ask which hike you're on to be sure you're prepared.

Rogers Tour, Rainforest tour was GREAT - Rogers Tour, Rashiddie was so informative and challenged us. Age 21 to 64 loved it. I learned so much on the trees, fauna and animals of St. Kitts. thanks for making us fall in LOVE with St. Kitts.

Interesting Tour and History - Interesting tour. Ran into a school group on a tour, and they wanted a picture with us! Lots of history at the Estate.

Smaller local operator much better choice than the overpriced cruise deals. - I scheduled this outside of the much more expensive on ship excursion. The tour operators were quickly responsive to chat communication. Just be aware that you will meet the operator outside of the immediate area of the on cruise excursions. No big deal, just make sure you have the operator name. Once we met up we had a much smaller group than the crowded ship offerings. Big plus. The driver/guide was friendly, knowledgeable and spoke clearly. The rainforest hike was a little strenuous. Sneakers or hiking shoes. No flip flops.

Awesome experience - We had a great time throughout the entire tour. Our tour guide Zidan was very knowledgeable, courteous and patient. It was an educational experience and a great workout. We had a great time.

DECENT WALK - Our guide, Kasim, was knowledgeable and entertaining and was able to identify many tree species and their medicinal uses. Unfortunately and surprisingly we neither saw nor heard any wildlife on the walk. Nothing was mentioned and we did not see any petroglyphs mentioned in the excursion synopsis.
