Exploring Antigua with a Private Tour
Today in Antigua we decided to do something a little different and booked a private island tour with our personal driver, Dr. D. It ended up being one of the best ways to see the island!
The cost was very reasonable, and having a local guide made the experience even better. Dr. D took us all around the southwest side of the island and shared so much history and local insight along the way.
Some of the beautiful spots we visited included:
Nelson’s Dockyard – a historic naval dockyard and marina
Shirley Heights – incredible panoramic views
The Blockhouse – another amazing lookout point with stunning scenery
Darkwood Beach – where we stopped for a quick bite to eat and enjoyed the view
Seeing Antigua this way gave us a chance to explore at our own pace and really take in the island.
If anyone is visiting Antigua and interested in a personal island tour, I have Dr. D’s contact information and would be happy to share it!
