This is hard to review because Tony gave us a nice tour with good info. but it was just 2 hrs instead of 4 and we didnt get to the Falls. Just passed by the fort and the beach (that was OK, a drizzly day) so it really wasnt what we expected and paid for. We emailed in advance that we were limited in time so he picked us up at 8:30 and we discussed needing to be back on board by 1:30, but somehow we were there at 10:30! Nice to learn about the medical school but didnt need to see it or the nearby residential neighborhood.

Waterfall isn’t much to see. Nothing at fort other than great views. Interesting taxi (original driver didn’t show), no air con yet somehow enjoyable. Beach was fab - walked to far end, great chairs, Wi-fi and beers.
It was a great port day activity. Easy connect with tour guide. Entrance fees weren't covered, but the total as about $4 US per person .... Spent more on vendors at the waterfall. It was overcast and rainy in the morning, but cleared by the time we made the Fort, and sunny at the beach. Loved the island and our guide.
If you're on the cruise take the ship excursion instead of this... then you'll get a real guide. Shame on you Glory Tours! Part of leading a tour is having some information given by a knowledgeable guide. Instead they pay $100 to any driver they can rustle up, you go with your small group in his (unbranded) van, he tells you next to nothing and then presses you to give him a "good enough" tip (after you've already paid for a tour you didn't get). He does drive you to 3 places (including a spice shop I presume he gets a commission on). Ironically, our friends on other tours couldn't believe how knowledgeable their guides were. What a mistake to choose Glory Tours! Don't make the same mistake.
