What a brilliant tour! - It was an absolute pleasure to meet Greg and get a walk around with him! He turned up on time (+100 points :), helped me to store my bike while being on foot (caring gesture) and so much more... I was the only tourist participating so I thought for a moment - it`d have been shorter and perhaps even monotone, but the opposite was the case. If you`re on Nevis for the first time and get intrigued by the local history, this is it! Tour was factual enough to be interested but not too long and boring to yawn. Great social skills, lots of knowledge and being open to any questions and discussions. I learnt not just about the history, but also current social subjects... You just name it! If I come back to the islands in the future, I will be aiming to get to other tours. Nevis summit is no. 1 on the list and I can`t wait! Thank you very much! Elena

Alex and Derek! - Did the walking tour with Derek, who met me at the ferry port and was a wealth a knowledge about the island. As we walked from the port through town, we hit the Alexander Hamilton birthplace and museum, a very interesting city tour with loads of local history and finally, a stop at the hot springs. If you go with Derek, he may even take you to meet his Mom at her cafe, which was an unexpected pleasure. Had a great time and made it back to my cruise ship in St Kitts in plenty of time.

Well researched tour with interesting stops. - Visited with my 8 yo daughter and 70 year old parents. In spite of extreme heat, we all enjoyed the walking tour and our guide did an excellent job of moving us into shade whenever possible. We got a good feel for the place because he seemed to know all the locals and they did not miss an opportunity to extend a cheerful greeting.

Best walking tour of Nevis! - Rochelle is an extremely informative and knowledge tour guide. She curious about who is on her tour and what they are interested in. She is very open to questions and told many interesting stories that kept us engaged throughout. We know so much more now about the history of Nevis and how the culture developed. We highly recommend this tour. We took it on the 3rd day of our stay.

Worthwhile - The tour was well worth doing Derek was a great guide my only thought is that I had to email TripAdvisor to find out where I should meet the guide. Received a prompt response and so we knew where to go. one couple never did get that information - we just happened to meet them along the way 30 minutes after we left the original starting place. I suggest there be specific information given on where to meet the guide when you make the booking.
