Great experience me and my girlfriend had a great time swimming with the stingrays & learning about the slave plantations

One not to Miss!

Excellent tour. Keanu is very knowledgeable and obviously loves imparting information about his country. Best part was the stingray experience. Wonderful to see these beautiful creatures up close and so willing to hand feed which of course is usually impossible as they are ground feeders & hide from possible predators.

Response from Host, May 2026

There’s something fascinating about seeing an animal you think you understand suddenly behave in a completely different way 🐠🌊 Watching stingrays glide in, interact so closely and feed right beside you creates such a unique experience. We’re delighted you enjoyed discovering Antigua from so many angles, and Keanu will be so happy to hear that his passion for sharing the island and its stories came through 😊 His enthusiasm for Antigua always makes the journey feel even more personal.

This was more than what I expected way better. Marco was an excellent guide with extensive knowledge of Antigua and also his background as a marine biologist made for a wonderful stingray experience.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re thrilled to hear the experience exceeded your expectations and that you enjoyed it so much 🌴 Marco will be especially happy to know you appreciated his knowledge of Antigua and his marine biology background—it really does make the stingray experience even more meaningful 🐟🌊 For anyone reading, our small and exclusive tours are designed to go beyond the typical excursion, combining authentic local insight with close-up wildlife encounters in a relaxed setting ✨ We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back to Antigua again soon! 😊
