What are people saying about Antigua and Barbuda

Scenic Full Day Tour of Antigua

hunterdavidj, Sept 2026

Very good tour including lunch & entry fees

We had an excursion around Antigua on Thursday 24 September 2026. Our tour guide was Leo. We had expected to be in a group of 6-8 people but, when collected at our hotel, we found that it was just me and my wife who would be touring the island with Leo. The tourist was interesting and lasted 6 hours which I thought was just about right. Leo was fun, helpful and very knowledgeable about the local area but given that he has lived in Antigua for 99.9% of his life, I guess that's no big surprise. However, his wider knowledge was also very impressive. There was no subject raised that he wasn't able to discuss at length. The lunch included was good - not exceptional but what we would have expected on this type of excursion. The only slight negative was that we had forgotten to take water with us although we.had.thought that the trip included water. Given the high temperatures in Anyigua that we were experiencing, my wife eventually asked for some. It turned out that Leo had plenty of very cold bottled water but just hadn't offered it. I would certainly recommend this trip and would definitely recommend Leo.

Our driver Imran was...

Our driver Imran was super nice and great company for the ride over. The two tour leads in the water were fantastic and got insane pictures throughout. They were super hospitable and friendly and made for a great trip. Saw one sea turtle on our way back in, but countless tropical fish and reefs on the way. They took us out to the pillars and we were loving the views.

Antigua Stingray Experience with Hotel Pickup & Local Guide

Swim with stingrays and tour of Antigua

My husband and I did this experience during our honeymoon; it was a wonderful day! As a guide, we had Martina, a cheerful and easygoing girl. We first swam with the stingrays (beautiful) and then we had the opportunity to visit Devil's Bridge, Betty’s Hope, and relax on two beaches (one in the morning and one in the afternoon). Martina also told us a lot about the local history, and it was very interesting. It was an incredible experience, and we recommend it to everyone! Everything is organized very well, with a very good local lunch included!

Adventure Antigua - The Xtreme Circumnavigation tour

Semi - Private Snorkeling and Sightseeing Tour of Antigua

Tyler_C, Aug 2026

Our tour with Johnny was...

Our tour with Johnny was one of the highlights of our trip! He made it easy to see several highlights of Antigua at once. We particularly enjoyed the snorkeling since we were able to easily see several sea turtles, lobsters, and an eagle ray. We felt safe while in the water with Johnny and didn't find the swimming strenuous at all given the bay is protected and the water was very calm during our visit. Huge thanks to Johnny for the GoPro footage captured in the water!

Adventure Antigua - Eli's Original Eco Tour

Nicky_M, Aug 2026

Fun Boat Trip with lots of Swimming

Fun trip with lots of snorkelling! Loved the swim over the reef and the swim/walk along the caves at Hells Gate where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean. Quite precarious though so not for the faint hearted. Crew of Dave, Amara and Jevon were great and lunch was delicious Highly recommend!

Tuk-Tuk Adventures Rainforest and Beach Hopping Tour

vaundel_p, Jul 2026

5 star experience

**5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** If you're looking for the best way to explore the city, look no further, our guide was Akeem the Dream — and the name says it all! From the moment we hopped in, Akeem had us laughing, learning, and completely falling in love with every corner of the place. His knowledge of the local history, hidden gems, and best spots was absolutely incredible — he clearly has a genuine passion for sharing his city with visitors. The tour was perfectly paced, never rushed, and Akeem had a gift for making everyone feel like old friends. He went above and beyond at every stop, offering tips, stories, and recommendations you simply wouldn't find in any guidebook. The tuk tuk itself was a brilliant way to take it all in — intimate, fun, and totally unique. Honestly, this was one of the highlights of our entire holiday. If you're even slightly considering it, just book it. You will not regret it. Akeem the Dream is the real deal — an absolute legend and a one-of-a-kind experience. We'll be back!

What an experience!!😍

An experience absolutely worth doing: engaging, interesting, and educational! From my husband's and my point of view, there are two added values: having had this experience with two other Italian couples, which allowed us to make friends, and Marco, our guide, who patiently answered all our questions! Truly excellent❤️

FANTASTIC Green Island and Sea Turtles - Half Day share boat trip

Green Island Turtle Tour - Amazind !

Absolutely amazing tour and Martina was an excellent guide. Not only was she an incredible chauffeur ( which isn't easy here ! Driving is quite a task !) she also served as our snack provider , gear holder , bartender and photographer ! The island and beach itself was stunning and we spent a few hours swimming around with magnificent turtles and relaxing. They even took us to a sandbar in the middle of the ocean on our way back and we got to snorkel In a natural "swimming pool". Wonderful day. Highly recommend. Going early was also perfect - as we were leaving a large boat with at least 50 people pulled up. There's no way they got to experience what we did. Go with this tour. You won't be disappointed.

Antigua Reef Riders Self-Drive Boat and Snorkeling Tour

Marcus1035, Jun 2026

A super fun trip—mega fun guaranteed!

This tour was a blast...the "boats" are simply designed for fun and are also super enjoyable for two people. Everything seemed very well organized! We would have loved to go longer :)...the reef for snorkeling also offers an interesting variety of marine life. Very important: Sunscreen, sunscreen, and more sunscreen :) Our guide was also great :) And a huge thank you to the owner of Reef Riders... I left my phone in the office and only realized it later at the hotel. After a brief phone call with the crew, I was told that they had already tried to contact me... anyway, they offered to bring my phone in the evening, in case I didn't need it before then. In the evening, the owner came personally and made me very happy... first the cool trip and then my phone back ;) He firmly declined a thank you in the form of a tip. What wonderful and honest people - love goes out to the crew and the owner of Reef Riders ;)

Excellent experience

We had an excellent experience. The tour is very well thought out, allowing you to see several key sights and experience a wonderful beach at the end. Our tour guide Yajaira was amazing - she had so much local knowledge to share and made the tour really fun! Also an excellent driver. Thank you!

Antigua Zipline Canopy Adventure from St John’s

David_H, Jan 2026

Great Zipline Experience! Highly recommend!

This was a really fun zip-line tour in the Antiguan rainforest area. Connie and the rest of the staff made you feel welcome immediately and were very helpful in getting you settled in whether you were a first-time zip-liner or experienced. I would recommend wearing comfortable tennis shoes or equivalent and loose-fitting clothes. Sunscreen is always recommended, but we were in shade for most of the event. With the way the harness hits, you won't really be able to have much in your pockets. They supply lockers to store your valuables. They do allow GoPro or similar type cameras that can mount to a helmet, but no hand-held cameras. They do take photos and videos during the first zip-line which are available for purchase. The cellular service there was non-existent for us, but they do have free wifi that you can use with a code good for one hour - just ask at the bar. They also have drinks (alcoholic and non) with some light snacks and souvenirs are available for purchase. We finished in just under 2 hours with all the zip-lines as well as the challenge course. Great activity for anyone!!
