Terry’s Tobago Fun Island Tour
Our most popular tour and a “must” for first-time visitors to Tobago!
Our Full Island Tour is with our owner, Terry PItt, who is a fully licensed professional tour guide with years experience guiding visitors around Tobago.
A Note From Terry
This is a full day tour of my beautiful island of Tobago, the smaller of the two island making up the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. You will be picked up from your hotel at 8:30 a.m. after which we will start to explore. The car is air conditioned for your comfort and a supply of soft drinks and water are available.
Fort King George in Scarborough
The first stop is on the North Atlantic Ocean side of Tobago. This is the best preserved historical site with a chance to see the old canons from the battles in 1770’s. It is a destination steeped in rich history and offers one of the most breathtaking views of Port of Spain and the sea beyond.
Cocoa plantation
Explore the cocoa trees, colonial coco house and experience cocoa beans tasting–if we can get to them before the parrots do!
Speyside
The tour also includes a visit to Speyside Lookout to see “Goat Island” which was the former home of Ian Fleming the author and creator of James Bond. We will also be able to see “Little Tobago” which is better known as “Paradise Island,” now a bird and wildlife sanctuary.
We pass through some small villages and along the way we will see the famous “Jemma’s Tree House” restaurant. This part of the tour will also include a stop at the ruins of the largest water wheel built by the Scottish in Tobago.
Charlotteville
Charlotteville is the highlight of this tour. We head to the north of the island to Charlotteville, the gem of Tobago where the Caribbean Sea flows along the coastline. You have likely seen the beautiful photographs taken of this area.
Tobago’s best kept secret is “Pirates Bay” which we certainly hope will be the most memorable part of your day. You will enjoy a short private boat trip to a secluded wild beach. Lunch is also included and you will get to taste some of our local Caribbean delicacies. Snorkeling equipment is also provided so you can enjoy the beautiful underwater landscape and nature at its best.
After a few hours enjoying this bay, you will bep icked up by boat and taken to “Pink Sand Beach” (better know as “Lovers Bay”), a private beach only accessible by boat. What a great way to connect with nature, relax and unwind, and simply spend a few hours enjoying this peaceful paradise.
Caribbean Side of Tobago
We will then continue our tour down to the Caribbean side of the island where breathtaking views combine with the setting of the sun to see the island in its top stunning beauty. Finally, we drive back down the west coast of the island to Crown Point where we end our day at 6:00 p.m. You will then be dropped off at your hotel.
