The experience

You have a free afternoon or morning in Grenada and want to see the island without renting a car or navigating on your own. The tour picks you up from your hotel and heads west along the coast through St. George's, passing fishing villages and the Caribbean Sea before turning inland. The route climbs through lush vegetation where you can see fruit, vegetable and spice fields growing: the landscape shifts from seaside to rainforest as you move deeper into the island.

The first major stop is Concord Falls, where you can swim in the cool water or simply view the waterfall. Swimming is optional, so you choose what suits you. From there, the tour visits Gouyave Nutmeg Processing Station to learn how nutmeg is processed, then moves to Diamond Chocolate Factory for a tour of how cocoa beans become chocolate, with free samples included. You'll also pass through Belvidere Estate to see how the spices and produce grow in the field.

The final stop is Grand Etang National Park, where the crater lake sits surrounded by rainforest. You take in the natural scenery and breathe the fresh air of the forest while viewing the lake itself. It's the high point of the route and the reason the drive inland matters. The whole tour takes four and a half hours from pickup to drop-off, and your guide speaks English and handles the driving so you can focus on what you're seeing.
