Lush and luxuriant, the exotic tropical island nation of St. Kitts and Nevis is a romantic paradise. St. Kitts' wonderful beaches remain relatively crowd-free, and nature lovers delight in seeing lava formations, tropical forest and lagoons and underwater marvels while snorkeling or diving. Among more than 200 historical sites, former plantation homes now offer elegant accommodation. Eco-rambles, bio-tours and climbing are Nevis attractions. Rent cars or mopeds on-island and catch ferries between the two.

My parents, husband, 2.5 year old and I came into St. Kitts on a cruise. Bobby was exceptional leading up to our arrival - he answered all my questions via email and was accommodating and flexible. He was waiting for us when we disembarked and we immediately loved his friendliness, helpfulness, and great sense of humor. He showed us around the island and shared great stories and facts. He knows so much about the island and its history. We loved the stops he chose for us and even my 2.5 year old was entertained. The lunch spot and beach were the perfect cherry on top of a thoughtful and enjoyable tour of St. Kitts. All of us - varying ages and interests - were entertained and felt well taken care of. Bobby is great, we'd highly recommend him to anyone considering a tour of St. Kitts.

Shadwell Great House is one of the last standing colonial plantation houses on the island. It has such a tremendous amount of history that it is simply too much to write here. There is currently an art gallery, cafe, yoga studio, acupuncture and trigger point therapy clinic and editing studio currently in the Great House.

The 'Gibraltar of the West Indies', this massive fortress on a limestone hilltop rises nearly 800 feet above sea level.
A must see!!! If you step foot on the island of St Kitts please do yourself a favor and make every attempt to make sure you visit this wonderful site. I rented a vehicle and I had a mini panic attack driving up and down the fortress driveways. Please take a cab. They do this trip every single day and are used to the hairpin turns and narrow alley ways that can freak you out very quickly if you are the driver so just sit back relax and look out the window. The admission fee is $10 per person cash only. We went on an early Sunday morning and had the entire place to ourselves which was awesome. There is a quick 10 minute introductory historical video to watch adjacent to the gift shop. The steep steps up to the left bring you to the most strikingly beautiful views of Saint kits and the islands of Saba and St Eustacius. There are probably 40 cannons to look at take pictures of and admire the beautiful scenery. The historic bell is also located on the top of the tiled roof. If you go below to the main open gallery Archway there is a different room to learn about every piece of history along your journey through end it is fascinating information. Once you take the steep steps back down there is beautiful views overlooking a vast field with gorgeous mountainous views as well as the adjacent ocean with ruin type stone arches. I highly recommend going early in the morning before it gets too hot and the crowds begin to develop. Bring plenty of water and wear proper foot gear. They were also absolutely gorgeous hibiscus flowers everywhere to admire.

This old plantation estate houses the Caribelle Batik works. You can watch colorful, tie-dye clothes being made.
I am so happy that we went to visit RomneyManor and the Carrabelle batik factory and store. It was truly a beautiful walk through the rain forest up to the grounds that are perfectly manicured and such magnificent flowers and trees to admire. There are endless photo opportunities here to enjoy. There is a fountain and an overlook to the rainforest and a bell tower to climb and a 400-year-old Saman with flowers everywhere. In addition to the gorgeous landscaping there are recently handcrafted batik pieces free flowing in the wind to dry and admire. I was so taken aback and fell instantly in love with one piece in particular that I went in to buy it right off of the clothesline. I asked to meet the artist and take her photo holding my new treasure. We also met the owner/groundskeeper who took us on a mini private tour of some of the specific plants, trees and flowers that were growing nearby with a very informative exclamation for each. I highly recommend visiting this gem while on Saint Kitts

Fairview Great House and Botanical Garden is an attraction like no other here in beautiful St. Kitts. Nestled at the foot of Olivees Mountain, enjoy a guided walk around the great house which is believed to have been initially built in 1701 by the French. This Great House has had many owners and inhabitants over the years, each leaving their mark and contributing to the unique history of the property. We also operate a number of Tours from this location including our Caribbean Flavours Cooks Tour; Fairview Rum Tour.
We booked the Caribbean Cooks shore excursion through Disney Cruise Line. It started with a tour of the historic home and some of the surrounding buildings. Then we headed to the kitchen area. Once seated we were asked if anyone wanted to help cook (two teens volunteered) and the chef prepared a fantastic meal. Close to the end of the cooking demo, we went to the gardens and then stopped at the bar for a sample tasting of the local flavored rum. The vanilla rum was excellent! Once all tastings were done we headed back to the kitchen area for our meal. The food was delicious (best fish I've ever eaten and others commented the same) and the recipes were provided. Both tour guides and the chef were excellent. I would do this shore excursion again if I were ever back in St. Kitts!!

My wife and I took in a visit to Timothy Hill to see the amazing views of the Atlantic on one side and the Caribbean Sea on the other as part of an island tour and really enjoyed the short stop off. The immediate area was extremely busy but it was worth the effort to see those views.

4th port on our cruise was Basettere, the church is one of many churches here and one of the places we visited. You are allowed to climb the tower to the roof which affords fabulous views as shown. Another Caribbean gem of an island, unfortunately we didn't make it to the beach on this occasion.
