I recently had the pleasure of going on a tour with Guatrips in Antigua and I must say, it was an incredible experience! Our tour guide, Erwin, was knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. The tour was tailor to exactly what we wanted to see and do, and we were able to do more than any other preprogrammed tour from our cruise ship or other offered on viator. Erwin is a small business owner, so be patient with the coordination and communication prior to the day of the event - but you won’t regret the experience with him. The sites we visited were breathtaking and the overall experience was one of the highlights of my trip. I would highly recommend this company to others looking for a top-notch tour experience in Antigua.Ingrid_B
