Annie's Caribbean Private Island Tour: Culture, Rum & Hidden Gems

Discover St. Kitts through the eyes of a beloved local expert on a fully private, bespoke island tour — from colonial Basseterre's pastel streets to secret viewpoints, rum distilleries, and off-the-beaten-path cultural gems.

What to expect

Annie or one of her expert local guides collects you at the cruise pier and weaves through Basseterre's Independence Square, the Georgian-era Treasury Building, and the colourful Central Market before heading into the island's interior. You'll stop at a local rum shop to taste the island spirit, pause at panoramic hillside viewpoints that tourists rarely find, and hear fascinating stories of Kittitian culture, Carnival, and everyday island life. The pace is entirely yours — this is St. Kitts as its residents experience it, not as a checklist. Groups are intentionally tiny.
