“Amazing Excursion - Seamus was our tour guide and he was awesome! My husband and I were the only ones signed up for the day so we had a private tour. The rain forest-waterfall hike was amazing. Seamus showed us so many beautiful spots around the island and explained the history of each. We stopped for lunch at one of the best taco spots on the island and even spent time on the beach. I definitely would recommend this excursion to anyone wanting to see some of the most beautiful sights on the island.” (Reviewed at: 2023-09-23)
