We took the half-day tour with Noah, and I highly recommend it. Noah spoke about all the plants with great passion for nature. We toured the island, visited the rum distillery (if you want to buy vanilla, I recommend it here), and were shown the vanilla plants and the plant pollination. The noni plant particularly stood out. We had a minor incident with a bee sting, and Noah immediately got us a noni fruit, which we were then able to test in practice. Later we ate very delicious fruits. We were able to stay with the boat at a buoy infront of the tour and spend the night there. The tour was organized with great enthusiasm and interesting information. Thank you.

Noah was a fantastic guide for a tour of the island with my family. Over the course of 5 hours we learned about the various plants on the island, history, geography, and stopped by a rum distillery. Noah also provided water and a platter of local fruits for us to try. Highly recommend his tour!

An absolutely wonderful experience! Noah was the best tour guide and he shares so much love and knowledge about the island. It was the highlight of our trip!

We had an excellent tour. Noah is very knowledgeable and also fun to be around. He was very helpful in scheduling the tour and even provided us a mooring ball for our boat. He was also kind enough to let me bring my two dogs ashore for a walk at his family’s home. We really enjoyed the day !

What a fantastic experience! It was low season, so our group of 4 got a private tour. There is a shaded area with seating where the family who own the land teach you everything you want to know about vanilla production. They speak excellent English. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history of vanilla cultivation through the interactive experience. They have vanilla bean pods at various stages of development to touch and smell, as well as different forms of preserved vanilla to show. It would be great for kids since it is so interactive. It's also pretty brief, maybe 20-25 minutes. They sell lots of vanilla products there: whole dried beans, paste, coffee, tea, sugar, extract, and infused rum. They also sell some other oils, soaps, and sarongs. They take cash and credit card. It's very much worth a stop!
