I am a locally based professional guide. I have lived my entire life in Antigua growing up in the village of English Harbour. I have a great love and admiration for my country. My greatest delight is to share my local experiences/knowledge with my Guest. I am best described as a friendly person with a personality to make my guest relax and have fun. All the Islanders call me "Uncle Ted". My love and passion for the nature and culture of the Island inspired me to pursue a career in photography. My journey as a photography has allow me to explore the hidden secrets of the Island rich Culture and History and its beautiful landscapes and beaches. I have grasped the opportunity to fuse my experiences, professional training and knowledge of the Island to create unique and exciting tours to my guest. You will step back in time as I share the stories and experience of village life while you relax and enjoy the sheer nature, beauty and history of Antigua. I also enjoy capturing weddings and taking my newlyweds on a romantic tour of the Island. Whether it is a wedding, a family affair, I guarantee that you will have fun on my tours. I am a natural with children. One thing is guaranteed, you are going to have Fun! You are going to laugh a lot! It will be the most relaxed and best experience of your vacation as you emerge in Antigua's culture. The entire days experience will be captured on Camera. I spent the earlier path of my career, approximately 15 years working at the Nelson's Dockyard, the Island foremost tourist attraction. First, as a Supervisor of the Park's Tour Guides and I later became head of the Visitors Services Department. I have travelled extensively at trade shows representing my Island. I consider myself as a Service Ambassador to my Island and have partnered with the New York Tourist Office and the local tourist authorities on the island in touring many Travel Agents on FAM trips. I am also a professional photographer. . I run a local Charity and donate my time and resources in helping the needy families on the Island. I also work with the local schools in mentoring delinquent children. NONE
