The best tour of St Vincent - This day tour with Top Dawg of St Vincent’s eastern side is such a contrast to other parts of the island, and I am so glad I chose this tour so I could experience this side (it’s also less touristy). My guide, Kevin, was passionate and professional. I learned so much of St Vincent’s history, and also met many locals along the way - Kevin knows everybody! Kevin also took me to lunch at a local restaurant where I had the most flavourful chicken and breadfruit for lunch. We also saw so many beautiful places along the way just by driving along the cost enroute to our destinations. Overall, I would recommend this tour for anyone looking for a professional tour of St Vincent’s eastern side.

Salt Pond - We had an amazing tour with Top Dawg. Our drummer was Levin and he was super informative we went to Black Point Tunnel and Salt Pond. The scenery was spectacular. The water at the Salt Pond was low and we forgot water shoes so delicate to get in. Kevin took us to a local restaurant for great rotis and then to his farm. Learned a lot. Great trip

Dramatic scenic views with a knowledgeable Guide - The tour took us over the scenic Windward side of the island of St. Vincent. En route we took in the changing landscapes and villages and saw the destruction caused by the volanic eruption of 2021. Owia Salt Pond is spectacular! The place was deserted when we were there so it was nice to have the place to ourselves. The many rock pools were teeming with wildlife: I spotted a small zebra eel! It's worth noting that the Salt Pond has a little over 200 steps that lead down to it, so is not easily accessible to those with walking difficulties and those who struggle with walking back up steps. Also, footwear with good grip is advisable if stepping across the rocks in the rock pool. There is a nice park with picnic benches above the Salt Pond which is easily accessible to all and which has nice views over the ocean. The tour of Black Point Tunnel was interesting and a reminder of the island's dark past. The service received from our Tour Guide was exceptional! He is incredibly knowledgeable and accommodated our specific needs; nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend this tour.

Highly recommended. - Firstly, I must say that I am very impressed with Top Dawg Taxi and Tours. From the start our experience was pleasant. I sent messages through the companies website and got immediate responses. Wayne and Shakiera were quite knowledgeable from information about the sites to current events and politics. For us this added a very deep connection with the locations and made for great conversations and appreciation of St. Vincent. They were warm spirited from welcome to good bye. As for the actual sites,they are amazing. It's really worth it to experience how awesome nature is in St. Vincent. We were lucky enough that Shakeira and Wayne gave us the chance see a few extra points of interest. The Owia Salt Pond is somewhere one can go to forget about all the challenges in one's life. I confidently recommend this tour provider and the package. Christopher, Trinidad and Tobago
