“The other reviews were spot on. Our guide, Leo, was friendly, knowledgeable and conducted a phenomenal tour. Amazing views, good conversation, and learned a bit, too. And, as a Cleveland Browns fan I won’t hold it against him that he roots for the Bengals! (LOL!). Great way to see the island and get off the resort for a day.”
