Take this exciting Island Safari tour and you'll never look at island exploration the same again. Strap into the back of one of the custom made Land Rover Defenders and hold on for the ride of your life! You are about to go where other tours dare not venture.

Skilled drivers, each with years of experience under their belt, will drive you through the rough terrain of the mostly uncharted and illusive Anitguan country sides where you'll get to be up close and personal with the exotic plants and animals seen no where else on the island.

Sip on our special jungle juice and feel free to laugh and yell as loud as you want as we trek boldly over rugged, mud covered trails. Discover hidden sections of Antigua not easily accessible by regular vehicles. But that's not where the fun ends! Next you will drive you through the quaint fishing village of Seatons to Stingray City Antigua.

You will be greeted by the professional staff at Stingray City who will give you a safety briefing. After the briefing you will be provided with your snorkel equipment, from Seatons a skiff will transport you to Barge Reef, the home of Stingray City Antigua, where the calm crystal clear water is home to many Southern Stingrays. Professional staff assist you, to play, feed and swim with the tame stingray. The waters are only 3-6 feet deep so even non-swimmers can enjoy the rays!

These amazing animals will surprise you with their gentleness, these once feared 'beasts' will find a special new place in your heart and provide you with an unforgettable memory.

Returning back to the dive store, you can rinse off with a fresh water shower underneath the coconut tree. A delicious lunch will be served that you can wash down with some complimentary, refreshing rum or fruit punch! Then you will get the chance to view the photos from the day and purchase them to cherish this memory forever, as well as some local arts and other souvenirs from your day!

Start this tour with a visit to the local vegetable market, then take a stop in the capital city of St. John's where you will visit the popular Heritage Quay for duty- free shopping. This is where everyone comes to shop for duty-free, designer and locally made products. This two-story shopping complex has plenty to offer for the hard-core shopper or just the casual browser. Located in the center of town, there are many colorful vendors in the area, selling the usual batik pareos, T-shirts, woven products, and jewelry available on all the islands.

Take a walk up to St. John's Cathedral which was constructed in 1800. The Cathedral is built of freestone and is dominated by twin towers at the west end and provides a distinct baroque flavour. Then make a stop at the beautiful Botanical Gardens, which were established in 1893, for a delicious picnic style lunch.

This tour offers each hiker the experience of a truly off-road 4WD adventure, taking them to places of natural interest such as Body Pond, Great Fort George and Boggy Peak.

You will also have the opportunity to see Nelson's Dockyard, Shirley Heights, Interpretation Center and English Harbour. Throughout this journey, sample some of the seasonal fruits such as mangoes, pineapples or Guavas.

Then it's time to visit Betty's Hope sugar plantation to relive the memory of the only working sugar mill on the island and learn how to make rum. A picnic style lunch will be provided under the coconut trees on the water's edge - a truly beautiful, cool Caribbean setting.
