Review of Antigua’s Stingray City tour, with round-trip transport, snorkeling, feeding, family tips, timing advice, and honest value notes.

“We were the first boat to arrive at the sand bar by about 15 minutes, which made the experience perfect! There were SO MANY rays that we got to feed and interact with; feeling them brush against our legs and being able to "pet" them as they swam by was a once in a lifetime experience. We love that we were able to interact with them in their natural habitat, without any nets or fencing to keep them contained (as other places have). The only caveat is to get there early in the day, as the more people arrived, the murkier the water got and the less interaction we were…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 172 reviews · from $90

Trek Tours Antigua review: compare coastal and hill hikes, guides, views, fitness needs, transport, price, and practical tips before booking.

“Barry was a great guide for my husband and me. He was very patient with my needing to stop along the way. I would say this is moderate to difficult. It is very steep and rocky. The view is wonderful once you get to the top. Coming down is tricky because of the rocks and washed out areas. The oppressive heat and humidity doesn't help. I wouldn't recommend this unless you're in really good shape.”

“During a tour the tour guide either makes or breaks the whole experience. Andrew knocked it out of the park. He was funny and so laid back. He felt more like a friend showing us around than anything else. He rolled with the punches and would stop when we wanted to stop and check out the black pineapples or get an ice cream or stop at the local fruit stand. During our last ice cream stop I realized that we went over the six hour and he was just so chill. Having rented a car myself I wasn’t sure if this tour was needed but after doing it with him…”

“The trip was brilliant - we saw so many places and it didn't feel rushed at all. Our particular highlight was Nelson's Dockyard! Captain Crystal was amazing. What a lovely, thoughtful and kind person. We had a blast with her - it's so evident that she values everyone. She's set up this business from nothing and has clearly worked so hard to get it off the ground. It was far better than booking with one of the massive companies because it was a lot more personal and tailored. We learnt a lot, had lots of fun and got taken to places that we would never have visited otherwise. It was…”
