I'm a friendly, social, and witty person who would love to connect with you! Born and raised in St. Kitts, I have come to appreciate the island I call home. From its national parks, fertile land, and calm Caribbean waters to the rough Atlantic seas, I love it all. With its warm beaches, intimate spots, picturesque views, and kind, loving people, my heart beats to the symphony of "life on St. Kitts". Whether it's the island's colorful homes, historic buildings, curvy roads, or the faint images of distant beauty, I sync with "life on St. Kitts". The rhythms of our ancestors, the beats of our present culture, the fragrance of our flora, and our fine foods keep me going to the tune of "life in St. Kitts." Combining this with my experience as a tour guide, my why is to share a personal journey with you as you discover... uncover my island. I've been an official tour guide since 2015. Therefore, because of my love for exploring, I guarantee a satisfying tour. I'm academically inclined, so I use this to bring a knowledgeable perspective to our excursions. Lastly, in my evenings, I work at a radio station, and as a communicator at heart, I always look forward to connecting as I introduce you to this piece of paradise.

Overview of your Basseterre tour

Join me on this journey as we explore the rich history of St. Kitts in a leisurely way! With my years of experience as a local, tour guide and communicator, I'll be able to show you places that truly reflect our history. You'll have the chance to learn about our old French town capital, Basseterre, see our local merch stores and enjoy the island buzz. Learn about how the British colonial and slavery systems have influenced our way of living to date. See, hear, and maybe even learn our local accent along with some of our culture. I'll highlight our colourful edifices and more with the touch of lovely island music playing in the faint distance. You'll also see the affluent development and picturesque sceneries as we drive down to the southeastern tip of our guitar-shaped island. This tour then climaxes with more fun and sun at Cockleshell Beach! So bring along your bathing suit, chunks, and sunglass as you chill like a true islander! The following itinerary could be customized:
