Antigua and Barbuda / Special Interests / Island Tours
With its large numbers of visitors there are plenty of tours of Antigua and many of them cover Antigua’s historical highlights such as Nelson’s Dockyard and other historic sites, with stops along the way at beach bars and local restaurants.
Estate Safari & Classic Jeep Tours - Choose from the off–the-beaten track estate safari or the more historical classic tour in air-conditioned jeeps. Lunch included.
Happy Trails Antigua - A family-run jeep tour business operated by Ann Marie Williams and her son Gareth, which offers a range of combination off-road tours in 4x4 air-conditioned Toyota Prado jeeps. Tours include historical forts such as Fort Barrington or Fort Berkeley, visits to Nelson’s Dockyard or Betty’s Hope sugar estate. All tours include a beach stop for a simple chicken lunch and swimming. There is also a “combo tour” which includes Nelson's Dockyard and Shirley Heights followed by a drive through the rainforest to Canopy Tours where you do the zip wires and have lunch. Refreshments, as well as freshly baked banana bread and homemade rum punch, are provided on all tours as well. Private, personalised tours can also be arranged.
