Antigua: Shore Excursion with Shirley Heights & Rum Tasting
Discover the highlights of Antigua on a shore excursion from the port. Visit Shirley Heights, the Interpretation Centre, and Devil's Bridge, and sample the Antigua Black Pineapple.
Meet your experienced, qualified driver / tour guide as you set off on your Island Tour guaranteeing you a taste of Paradise.
A visit to Betty's Hope is a must. Throughout its 300 year history, this former sugar plantation has played a prominent role in Antigua and Barbuda’s history and has influenced the lives of many generations. Explore the natural phenomenon of Devils Bridge, created by the Atlantic’s waves crashing into the east coast for hundreds of thousands of years. Numerous geysers and blowholes surround the arch as waves continually break against the coastal rocks.
Drive through a few quaint villages and then visit Dow's Hill Interpretation Centre (if open), where you’ll learn about Antiguan culture and Heritage. Discover the ruins at Shirley Heights, an 18th Century English Guard Post. This site offers a spectacular view of English Harbor. On a clear day, some of the neighboring islands can be seen from this vantage point. From Shirley Heights, drive through the lush tropical areas on the southern side of the island, getting a firsthand view of the Antigua Black Pineapple (dubbed the sweetest pineapple in the world). To tantalize your taste buds, sample this delectable mouthwatering pineapple, mango (if in season), or sugar cane, as well as a sample of freshly made rum punch or fruit punch (rum punch is made with Antigua's very own Cavalier Rum).
Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end, as you will now make your way back to your point of pick up by way of the remaining southern villages along the Caribbean coastline. To add to your experience, your parting gift is a miniature bottle of International award winning Cavalier rum.

Cobh/Cork: Blarney Castle, Kinsale & Cork City Shore Tour
This was a fantastic experience! Beautiful drive, well planned tour, very nice bus. No regrets at all booking this independently instead of through the cruise line. We went the same places the cruise line excursions did and had a much better value! ... Our tour guide was excellent as well! Highly recommend!
