Must do while in Antigua - Had a really good time. We were running late and they still waited for us which was nice. Our guide Andre was awesome. Antigua doesn't get much rain however it was a downpour when we went and we still had a great time. You do have to pay the entry fee of $10 U.S. dollars and you have to buy the food inside however it was worth it. The band was nice and I loved the steel pans, it gives the authentic feel of the island. If you are looking for a quick get away from the resort this is perfect for a couple of hours. Price is sufficient for this type of tour

Nice experience because of Marlin, but I didn't like Shirley Heights. - Marlin was an excellent driver. Very courteous, helpful and informative! I would definitely recommend Marlin as a tour guide for others.

Would do again - Shirley Heights was a great time. Would recommend going on a Thursday if you don’t like the large crowds that are there on a Sunday. Food and drinks were was great and reasonably priced. Seating is very limited so get there early or be prepared to stand and walk around. Would not recommend ride share although less expensive we spent as long in the car driving as we did at the event. Next time would just do a private taxi.

Not all it’s cracked up to be - We spent $36 a person just for ride to Shirley Heights some random driver picked us up in van without AC on I needed shower before we even got there Once we got there they charged us $15 at first gate and found out later they were only charging ppl $10 at the second gate then food was $40 a person and there really wasn’t many vendors selling stuff and this was no one’s fault but clouds rolled in so no sunset Then our random driver showed up late to pick us back up

The view was very pretty... - The view was very pretty however not much of a sunset, it went behind the mountain. It was also insanely crowded and very long lines with almost no shade. Band and vibe was fun.

Don’t waste your time - Too crowded and space is too small to accommodate the large crowds. Lines were extremely long for the bar and food. We waited 1-1/2 hour in line for the food. Then there was hardly anywhere to sit. Some people sat on the grass and cats were surrounding them. It was not worth it and I don’t recommend it. This was not a street party where you have blocks of food everywhere to choose from. It’s one food participant and one long line that stretches to space. The food was good but I’m sure you can find good food elsewhere on the island.
