St Vincent Botanic Gardens - Very pleased with pickup and return to hotel with TopDawg

St Vincent - Botanical Gardens and City Tour - Very well organised. A variety of scenic stops. Addition costs to get into Botanical Gardens and the private beach. The guides were very knowledgable and friendly. I recommend this excursion.

Goid value intetesting tour - Had a great tour with Dino yesterday (and with Shef for a short time). Dino"s driving skills (and, in particular, his clutch control up those hills) were brilliant!. Very informative anf enjoyable tour. The only reason we did not award 5 stars is that the beach resort that we visited at the end was ram jammed full. We were happy to stroll on the beach and have a drink in the coffee shop but those wanting a good beach expetience might be disappointed. Maybe find am alternative resort to take your guests if possible?

Great afternoon - We had a most enjoyable afternoon with Joel driving and Anthony at Fort Charlotte and a different Anthony in the stunning botanical gardens. Both men were very friendly and very knowledgable. Fabulous views from the fort and interesting history to learn. The gardens have trees from all over the world. There is a breadfruit tree descended from one planted by Captain Bligh. Anthony knew the history of every plant and is clearly a devoted caretaker. We also saw and heard the beautiful local parrot. Interesting afternoon including the drive there and back.

Worth a visit. - Lovely gardens well presented and we had Cornelius as a guide inside. Interesting tour, around the garden which took about 45 minutes. A nice break but nothing spectacular.

OK - Many different varieties of trees, most labelled. Few flowers. Seats and benches to rest at. Toilet facilities available
We didn't hire a guide, maybe we should have
