19 tours  ·  ★★★★★★★★★★ 4.5 average  ·  from $35

Almost everything on St Kitts starts within a mile of the Circus. These 15 are the days that begin in Basseterre — food walks through the old town, the train from Needsmust, boats out of Port Zante — each priced, timed and honest about how much of it is spent in a bus.

“We enjoyed the entire day. Even thge check in was humorous and we joked with the girl that met us at the gate. The ride from St. Kitts to Nevis was quick and fun. Our tour of Nevis started in a van that was very crowded, but within one stop the company had replaced it with a much roomier bus. Our driver/guide was informative and entertaining. The rest of the day at the beach on Nevis was relaxing and enjoyable. Well done!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 108 reviews · 6 hours · from $89

Review of the Mt. Liamuiga volcano hike on St. Kitts, with trail difficulty, summit views, guides, cruise timing, price, and practical tips.

“It is a beautiful hike! However, the viewpoint from the top is very limited. You can see about halfway into the crater, and no view of the ocean or surrounding islands which we were hoping for. But pretty on the way up and down!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 91 reviews · 3 hours · from $110

Ride St Kitts sugar trails and forest tracks on a guided ATV tour with mountain views, local stories, snacks, and hotel pickup.

“Probably the best attraction we could have chosen for a short stay on the island as a crew with our pilots – a perfect way to experience at least a bit of the island’s charm. Great fun, lots of joy and absolutely stunning views! The only downside was the lack of information about securing goggles or glasses beforehand, as a lot of dust and sand got into our eyes during the ride. Apart from that – everything was excellent. Highly recommended!”

Even if you're not the most confident hiker they make it a very enjoyable experience as they're very patient and encouraging. Particular shout out to Djae, without him my girlfriend would still be up the mountain!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 42 reviews · 7 hours · from $120

Sail from Basseterre to Nevis for snorkeling, beach time, lunch, an open bar, and sweeping Caribbean views aboard a spacious catamaran.

“This was genuinely one of the best experiences we’ve ever booked through GYG. Communication from start to finish – right up to departure – was fantastic and really reassuring. The meeting point was just a few minutes from the cruise port, making it very easy to find. The catamaran itself was modern, spacious, and well laid out. With around 50 people onboard I initially worried it might feel overcrowded, but there was plenty of room once underway. The crew were absolute diamonds – some of the friendliest, most genuine people we’ve met – constantly checking in and keeping drinks topped up. Highly recommend the “Ting”… especially with a sting 😉…”

I was hoping we'd experience more local spots, beyond the tourist destinations with this tour though. Still highly recommend for a tour of the island to see all the highlights in a well air conditioned van!”
