Great tour with accomodations on transportation
Colin_B
, Jul 2021
Viator helped with communication with the excursion management in order to set up special transportation from the southern part of the island to this northern excursion. The tour was informative in the history of rum on the island and how rum is made. We did not get to walk through sugar cane or sugar beet fields, but got to tour inside of distillery. The rum tasting was great, and we got to taste every single thing the disterally makes. After your and tasting we got to purchase full bottles of spirits at the cheapest price on the island. Highly recommend for those who like rum.
