Basseterre Tours and Tickets - page 5

Good instructions on where to meet, driver was on time. Romney manor (now the home to Carrib batik) is set in lovely grounds although not much left of the sugar mill, the batik demonstration was brief and a bit robotic, then left to explore the gift shop and grounds on our own. Fairview house was the best for plantation experience, you can walk around the house, some rooms set up with period furniture and there was a great museum in the basement about slavery and how the slaves were "recruited". The only part of the tour we weren't bothered about was the stop at a beach hotel, blasting music and rows of sunbeds, we only stayed long enough to take photos! Elvis our driver was great, we felt very safe and he helped us with getting the wheelchair in and out of the van. As a wheelchair user, although the vehicle was accessible I don't think the tour as a whole was, Carrib batik is quite hilly and wasn't easy to get around, Fairview house was very restricted. Having said that, if you're able bodied this is a very interesting tour

Our guide Peter was very informative. We went to the places described in the viator app but at the last stop we were supposed to spend 2hours, including going to the South Friars beach and this did not happen. We went to the Hill to see both Caribbean and Ocean seas for 20 minutes and back to the ship. We paid for a 6 hours tour and got only 3h30min. I would expect a cheaper price for only 3h not what we paid.

Very informative. I love our driver Peter. He was very calm and informative. His driving was excellent
