The highlight of our vacation!

Keanu was a great driver and guide. He’s very knowledgeable and took great care of everyone on the tour. As for Stingray City, it was the highlight of our trip according to my kids.

The tour guide Martina is very knowledgeable and passionate about sharing with us about the Island of Antigua. I would recommend this tour.

10/10 amazing experience.

We had another couple recommend this experience to us at our resort, we thought it looked fun. We did not think it would be one of the best experiences of our trip!!! Greta was an amazing guide and made sure we had THE BEST experience on the island. And she was very knowledgeable about anything that we asked. The stingrays were phenomenal it was a once in a lifetime experience swimming in the middle of the ocean with stingrays! Devils Bridge and Long Bay Beach were also top-notch, but the pivotal point of this excursion is the stingray!! 10/10 would recommend to anybody not knowing what to do.

Great day in Antigua!

Great day and fun tour!...

Great day and fun tour! Greta was a wonderful guide. Swimming with the majestic stingrays was a vacation highlight for us all. Seeing Devil's Bridge and learning the history was awe inspiring. The beach stop was a lovely way to refresh at the end of the tour with some drinks , snacks and snorkeling before heading back. Perfect day. Highly recommend. Great personalized service and so nice to not be with 100 other people.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Swimming with stingrays, standing in front of the power of Devil's Bridge, and finishing the day with a relaxing beach stop—it's hard to ask for a better combination of adventure, nature, and local history. We're especially pleased that the smaller group size made such a difference to your experience. Being able to move at a relaxed pace, ask questions, and enjoy each stop without feeling rushed is something many of our guests appreciate. Greta will be delighted to hear that her guidance helped make the day even more enjoyable. And yes, enjoying Antigua without being surrounded by a crowd of 100 people has its advantages! 😄 Thank you for the recommendation and for sharing your perfect day with future travelers.

Brilliant day to see the island

Laura_B, May 2026
Martina was great. Friendly, knowledgeable and a safe driver. picked up from our hotel making a small group of 4 in the air conditioned large car. Plenty of room for all of us. Went to see Betty’s Hope and Devils Bridge. Hour at Long Beach where the water was calm and beach was beautiful white sand. Lunch at a local restaurant in Seaton for a hearty lunch before the main event of stingray city. It didn’t disappoint. Short boat ride to the reef you can spent lots of time with these beautiful, gentle fish. Would highly recommend and I would go again in a heartbeat.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

What a great way to experience several sides of Antigua in a single day! From the history of Betty’s Hope to the dramatic coastline at Devil’s Bridge, the calm waters of Long Bay, and finally the unforgettable encounter at Stingray City, it sounds like you made the most of every stop. We're delighted that Martina helped make the journey enjoyable with her local knowledge and friendly approach. One of the advantages of our small-group tours is exactly what you described: plenty of space, a relaxed pace, and the chance to enjoy each location without feeling rushed. And then, of course, there are the stingrays. Seeing these gentle creatures up close is often the moment guests remember most. Thank you for your recommendation—if you'd go again in a heartbeat, we'd say that's the best compliment Antigua could receive! 🏝️🐠🚐
