Hey Everyone! My name is Matthew and I Hail from the beautiful Paradise island of St kitts and Nevis. I spent half of my life on our sister island Nevis and now I reside in St kitts. My Motto in life is: "when tasked with doing something, do it to the best of your ability'. I am truly privileged to live in "Sweet Sugar" city, which got its name from its past dealing with sugar, even though we currently don't produce sugar anymore. Regardless, our people have the sweetness of sugar embedded in our DNA! About Me: I have over a decade of Experience in the Tourism / Hospitality industry, I am a fully certified licensed taxi and tour operator, and I am a very passionate Individual showing people our beautiful paradise island. On a more personal note, I am happily married with two kids. I have always enjoyed experiencing people and things from different cultural backgrounds, only to find out that we all have some many things in common, even though we might separated by bodies of water. I would also like to add that most of family are tour guides so I definitely have it in my blood. Fully Certified Taxi/ Tour Operator 10+ years in the Tourism / Hospitality industry.

This adventure starts in our historic capital city, Basseterre, and takes you around it, visiting places such as the Berkley memorial and various historic churches, plus our independence square and our war memorial (veteran memorial). We'd also enjoy a beautiful view of the city making a stop at palms Court Gardens, which is also a panoramic viewpoint of our South East peninsula and our sister Island Nevis, which will be visible in the background. Venturing west, upon exiting Basseterre we'd encounter a picturesque moment where you could capture the nesting area of white egrets, which is always a sight to see. We'd visit a headland too, called "bloody point", and then see the Kalinago people's rock drawings. Our tour would also lead to the ruins of the Old Sugar Plantation, where we'd visit the Romney Manor, home of Maurice Widdowson's Caribelle Batik. We'd also visit a UNESCO Natural Heritage Site: Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park, where you'd learn about the rich history of the eponimous fortress.
