Born and raised in this tiny island of St. Johns, Antigua. I am a friendly, knowledgeable, experienced and excited lady who is very much in love with this beautiful Island and so enjoy showing it off by giving a very educational, historical and exciting tour of the island. With more than 15 years of experience in the tourism industry, I am a licensed taxi driver and tour guide who enjoys meeting people, sharing lots of fun and laughter. I have conducted many island and beaches tours so a day with me around the island is an experience you will never forget. To crown it all is the sampling of our national fruit, the Antigua Black Pineapple which is the world's sweetest pineapple. Come, discover the history, and culture of our National Parks; Shirley's Heights lookout with the most amazing view you would have ever seen. The Nelson's Dockyard, The Rain Forest, Devils Bridge and much more. And not forgetting the beaches. . . . "365 beautiful white sandy beaches", with me, Emelda, your very own personal tour guide and driver. Remember "THE SMILE, SUN, SEA and SAND IS JUST THE BEGINNING". I am a licensed Taxi Driver and Tour Guide and have been working in the Tourism Industry for more than 15 years. Service Ambassador - Trained at the Antigua and Barbuda Hospital Training Institute.

My favourite tour which takes you to the eastern side of the island to the old Sugar Plantation, Betty's Hope, then to the Devils Bridge which is a remarkable example of sea water erosion in the Atlantic Ocean. Moving on to The Shirley's Heights which is a restored military outlook with that spectacular view of breathtaking scenic landscapes at 360 degrees from 490ft above sea level. After which we will tour the Nelson's Dockyard which is the only continually working Georgian Shipyard in the world and also serves as a world class marina, hosting yachts from around the world. The tour continues through the Tropical Forest which is the lush, green scenery of Antigua. During the tour we will make various historical picture stops of the St. Barnabas Church, the sugar mill etc. You will also be treated with the sweetest pineapple in the world, "The Antigua Black Pineapple. I promise you a great time.
Emelda was a wonderful guide and person. It was a very informative and interesting trip around the island. The stops are nicely spaced out with plenty of time at each one. Get your t-shirts at Nelson's Dockyard. We have done many tours and Emelda is one of the best.
Emelda was an incredible tour guide all around Antigua. She is very knowledgeable and also a great driver. Her tour was a perfect overview of the different parishes on the island along with history and cultural heritage sites. At the end we were able to sample the famous black pineapple and mangos on the island. So swee and delicious. Very special and we would highly recommend her tours. Thanks again.

Emelda was outstanding - what a fun day! We were very particular in what we wanted to see and do as we are photographers.
