This was an excellent tour with only 8 guests. Our guide Olivier was very knowledgeable and considerate. He successfully arranged our itinerary to best avoid the crowds. The vehicle was clean with water provided and we felt very safe throughout. We would definitely recommend this tour. Thank you Olivier.

The group was only small and our guide was very informative. He took us to all the locations where the show was filmed and had lots of information boards with photos taken during the filming so we could see what it looked like. He had been an extra in the last series so was very knowledgeable. We had a great day.

    Death in paradise Great trip the guide presentation was so professional

    brian_b, Apr 2026
    The guide had been a extra in the TV series so knowledgeable good lunch at Catherine's bar ,value for money

    Perfect Death in Paradise Experience but also the beautiful Botanical Gardens.

    Kevin_W, Apr 2026
    It was a great day. Olivier gave thought to the timing of each of our visits so we could get the most from each experience and miss the cruise crowds. There is some walking around the Botanical Gardens and also through the town to the police station and Catherine’s Bar We thoroughly enjoyed the walks. Olivier was a very enthusiastic guide on Death in Paradise. Whenever we stopped, he showed us scenes from the show to prompt our memories of where we were & what we were looking at. Olivier himself had been in the show as an extra and it was fun to hear his experience. The meal pre booked at Catherine’s Bar by Olivier was great. We sat comfortably and enjoyed our pre-booked meal when it was super busy and people were trying to sit at the tables. Olivier was more than happy to take photos at all the different stops which were fantastic photos. The Botanical Gardens were beautiful. The feeding of the fish was an experience - the fish go WILD as you throw the food in. The feeding of the parachets was an experience too. We didn’t feed the goats, we gave our feed to a family with multiple children. The actual gardens were so pretty. All the trees, flowers and water features like the waterfall, fountain & stream were so restful to listen to and so beautiful. This was a highly memorable day & we would definitely recommend to do it with Olivier and his company.

    Paradise but no deaths today.

    Bob_H, Mar 2026
    As Brits, to get to see various Death in Paradise locations was thrilling. We were quizzed by our guide on how many Inspectors there had been and which one was our favourite. With inside knowledge, as he had been an extra on the series, he made our day very memorable. To top it all he had arranged for us to have lunch at the location for Catherine's Bar, which topped off the day. Very informative not only about the series but also about Guadeloupe as well. Great tour.

    Great tour!

    A tour to Paradise.

    Unforgettable day out

    MaryDiane_B, Jan 2026
    Fabulous day out with Olivier our tour guide/driver. We choose the small group tour with lunch at Catherine's bar and we were not disappointed, Oliver timed everything to perfection we managed to miss the crowds and as a local and extra on the show his knowledge of the area and the TV series was second to none. We saw everything that was advertised and more, lunch at Catherine's was fantastic and as our food was pre ordered it gave us more time to enjoy our surroundings. The trip was made more enjoyable due to the small group and our guides knowledge of the Island, we also went to the botanical gardens which were beautiful and were given food to feed the fish, parrots and goats. I would definitely recommend this tour.

    Best Tour Ever

    Jane_R, Nov 2025
    Our guide was first rate. He knows about DIP and is an extra. Great insight into the show and the island. Every minute of the tour was worthwhile, and eating at Catherine's bar was great. Can't wait to watch every season over with new eyes! Small van. Very personal. Perfect length. Not strenuous, but requires walking in sand and some uphill.

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Hello Jane, Thank you for your great feedback. We will pass it on to Olivier. Thank you also for visiting us in Guadeloupe. Constant B.

    Wonderful Experience

    Brandie_G, Jan 2025
    Olivier was a fantastic tour guide that ensured we got to all areas and had the appropriate amount of time at each stop. We enjoyed his insight and background stories that brought each place to life. Highly recommend this excursion.

    Great tour of Death in Paradise and Botanical Garden

    Robert_M, Nov 2024
    Oliver was a great guide. He knew a lot about the show, and the island itself. Picked us up, and dropped us off right at the cruise terminal. The botanical garden is beautiful.
