Explore two Caribbean islands in one with this twin-island experience.

Antigua is an island with a rich history and culture, as well as diverse flora and fauna. Hop in an SUV on this day tour with a trusty guide and be whisked around for a few hours, stopping off at the significant attractions on the island at your own leisure.

The adventure begins with a drive through the diverse vegetation of the Antigua Rainforest to get to your first stop, Nelson's Dockyard National Park. This historic landmark was developed as a British Navy base in the late 18th Century but gradually became abandoned in the 19th Century before completely closing in 1889. Today, Nelson's Dockyard has been rejuvenated and labelled as a World Heritage Site and has a unique combination of rich heritage and beautiful surroundings.

Moving on from the dockyard, you'll head up to Shirley Heights to admire the iconic views overlooking the English Harbour which stretch as far as Montserrat, and Guadeloupe. Back in the day, this lookout was a hugely important signal station to alert the entire island of any approaches to the harbour. Today, however, it’s a spot that people flock to for postcard-worthy pictures.

Immerse yourself in the food and culture of the Caribbean with a laidback cooking class in a stunningly located private home. Under the expert care of chef Nicole Dennis — whose house it is — you’ll learn all about the region’s cuisine, its history and the ingredients that are used to make its best-loved dishes.

 Trying not to get too distracted by the breathtaking views out over the shimmering sea, you’ll learn how to create gastronomic masterpieces with locally farmed produce and herbs along with a special blend of spices, highlighting their health values, to create an extraordinary meal. You’ll prepare a two-course lunch, before sitting down to enjoy your culinary creations and your own, personally made rum punch. It’s a delightful way to spend a morning that will particularly appeal to honeymooners, couples and groups of friends.

Head out across the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea in search of some of the whales and dolphins that are either resident or just passing through. Keep a lookout for pilot, sperm and mighty humpback whales and the rarer orcas, otherwise known as killer whales. You might also be lucky enough to see a large pod of spinning or spotted dolphins; their inquisitive, playful nature means they often approach the boats for a closer look - an experience you won’t forget. We think it’s a perfect way to spend a morning for families as well as couples, honeymooners and groups.
