Traveler Reviews

We did this as an excursion from the cruise ship. Had a group of about 15 people, so it was very pleasant. Kendrick was super knowledgeable about all the plants, stopping often to let us see/smell them. He was an awesome trail guide. He also gave us a lot of the history of the island as well. The trail is steep in some places, often muddy, and requires a stream crossing so wear water shoes or cross barefoot on the rocks. The waterfall is a nice treat at the end and the water is cold and refreshing. We didn't see monkeys, but that was ok--it was a great way to spend the morning.

Unfortunately, we never made it to the waterfall, because of the trail was blocked by a landslide. I know this is no one's fault, but our guide should have checked trail conditions before he took us out. I thought something was suspicious when we were the only two people on the tour. I also think the company should have informed us on proper attire. We were told by another guide this hike would not be muddy, so we went in shorts and hiking shoes, than were surprised when our guide was putting rubber boots on. That being said, we only got to see the farm and some monkeys.

I ended up phoning Caribbean Horizon from my hotel, and told them about the situation, and they arranged for us to do a private tour of the island to cover the cost of this tour. This actually ended up playing out in our favor, as we got to see A LOT more, than we would have on the hiking tour. The guide they sent us, Ien, was the BEST we had on our trip. He showed us the real Grenada, stopping in places and

This was great! We were lucky, it was just me and a friend so we were able to go out at our pace. Our guide was very knowledgeable and keen to share his knowledge with us. There were some tricky bits to negotiate but this is very doable. In fact, if it was a longer, that would have suited us and got 5*.
