His meticulous attention to detail reflects in his BnB, his property, and most definitely his tours. David immediately felt like a long lost friend and he went out of his way to give us the Caribbean experience of a lifetime.

From a surprise late night giant sea turtle birthing to boat trips and snorkeling in some of the most beautiful water you’ll ever see, from delicious seafood to liming the night away to the sweet rhythm of a steel drum, David will take great pride and care to make sure you have an experience you won’t forget!

Can’t wait to visit again!! read less

We ended the night at Castara Bay. His expert knowledge of the island was refreshing and his welcoming and friendly nature made the tour highly memorable and enjoyable.
My mother and I felt very safe and we had the best night listening to pan, dancing with a moko jumbie, lighting a bonfire and eating the local delights such as fishbroth and doubles.
I will definitely be recommending his tours to all my friends in the UK and Europe and I can’t wait to come back and do another tour. read less

We were picked up from our hotel and first stop was cocktails at Castara Retreats,which has an amazing location above the bay and built around nature as a massive tree house. We watched the spectacular sunset and then drove down to the Bay for dinner at the beach front resturant, Cascreol. The food was amazing, we had baked fish in coconut sauce. After dinner came the Steel drums, who were fantastic. David arranged for my wife to light the first bonfire of the night. He has all the contacts. We could have stayed all night dancing to the DJ but left around 11pm as we had an early flight next day. Again David was most obliging to our needs and drove us back to our hotel. This is the only night tour you will find and we were fortunate to have met David to arrange everything safely.
Would recommend Island girl to anyone visiting Tobago. read less

Even though he was fully booked that day he made sure to get us in contact with another amazing guide. He went above and beyond to make sure we were able to get a full day tour of the beautiful island. read less

We booked the tour before leaving the UK and all communication with David before and after arriving was excellent.
This tour is like no other tour. There are no time constraints or specific schedule as such to the day, it just flows.
You see the best that the island has to offer and this is down to David. He is so enthusiastic about the Island and it shows. He has great knowledge of the island and about so many other things. He is a great communicator and good company very friendly and approachable. It was more like meeting up with a friend for the day than going out on a tour. I am so very glad that we found Island Girl Tours as the whole day was amazing. We swam in fantastic secluded beaches, visited mangroves with not a soul in site, ate 'doubles', saw such beautiful scenery and wildlife and just generally had the most brilliant day.
Thank you David! 🙂 read less

Weather was rainy but he still managed to take me around to two popular beaches and one of the highlights was the Bonfire at Castara.
David's knowledge of the island, his pleasant demeanour, his attention to minute details, all made my time with him well-spent and l felt very safe with him.
I would definitely recommend him to families, couples or singles who want An Island Experience. He is professional and just a cheerful individual.
Thanks David. read less

YOU MUST BOOK THIS TOUR! If I could leave a million star review I would.... read moreIf I could leave a million star review I would. Do not even consider using another tour guide. I hate tour groups, they usually are impersonal, the guides are in it just for the money, and I never get to see or do the things I want to do for the length of time that I want to do. David is FAR from that guide. He immediately confirmed my full day island tour. He called me the day before my tour and asked what I wanted to do and because of the weather he blocked off both the Saturday and the Sunday for me, so that whatever I could not do in Saturday I could do Sunday. We ended up leaving later because of the rain and did a half island tour with hopes to finish on Sunday. Even though he usually doesn't combine tours and groups (I said it was okay!) we met up with another lovely couple and did their half island tour.
David is seriously amazing. He was always on top if his game, providing drinks, and knowledge that is far beyond effort a "regular" guide would provide.
Due to a freak tropical storm Sunday was cancelled so I didn't get to finish my tour, even though he couldn't control the weather he insisted we get drinks and go to dinner to make for it! He is so friendly and will make you feel right at home. I have never felt more safe with a guide, who clearly does his job with so much love and passion that it isn't even work anymore. Honestly, him and his tours blew me away. There is a reason it is the number one tour on the island. And it made my trip to Tobago one in a million. I will definitely be back again. read less

Despite many holidays within Europe we wanted to see something more exotic. On the basis of many good reviews we booked the “Grand Circle Island Tour” by “Island Girl Tours” already in Germany.
The ratings don’t lie, we were pleasantly surprised.
Days before the tour began our guide David contacted us to inquire about our preferences and expectations.
Also we set pick up location and time.
David picked us up on time and a event-proof day began. We drove to places specified in the tour description by car.
David took the organization and could provide interesting facts and information about the attractions.
Without him we had never visit some of the attractions because we drove to less popular places too.
As David lives in Tobago since many years he knows all the interesting locations and people.
The dealings were very friendly, not just a guide. We were able to communicate with him just with our English knowledge from school. David also organized short term wishes per telephone for example the visiting of baby turtles at the beach.
Moreover he carried the box of chilled water the whole day with him 😊
Our tour began at 7:45 am and ended after a little break at our hotel on a beach party to which David invited us.
Also on the days after the tour David stands to our side with advice and action.
We truly can recommend this tour: friendly, competent and more a friend then a businessman.
We felt all the time save an welcome.

With this rating we want to thank David for the exciting days again.

Wir sind Mutter und Tochter(15) aus Deutschland und sind eher selten in soweit entfernten Regionen unterwegs. Trotz diverser Urlaube in Europa wollten wir auch einmal etwas exotisches sehen. Aufgrund der sehr guten Bewertungen buchten wir im Vorfeld bereits in Deutschland die Grand Circle Island Tour von Island Girl Tours.
Eines vorweg: Die Bewertungen lügen nicht, wir wurden äußerst positiv überrascht.
Schon Tage vor Tourbeginn nahm unser Guide David Kontakt zu uns auf und erkundigte sich nach unseren Vorlieben und Erwartungen. Auch wurden so Abholort und Zeit abgestimmt. Pünktlich wurden wir von David abgeholt und begonnen einen sehr ereignisreichen Tag.
Mit dem Auto ging es zur in der Tourbeschreibung angegebenen Orten.
David übernahm hierbei die Organisation und konnte zu jedem der besuchten Orte interessante Informationen liefern. Ohne ihn hätten wir viele Sehenswürdigkeiten nicht besuchen können oder gefunden, denn wir fuhren auch zu weniger bekannten Orten.
Da David seit sehr vielen Jahren auf Tobago wohnt kennt er die interessanten Orte und Leute. Der Umgang war sehr freundschaftlich, nicht einfach nur ein Guide. Wir könnten uns mit ihm mit dem bei und vorhandenen Schul-Englisch sehr gut verständigen. Kurzfristige Wünsche wurden von David rasch per Telefon organisiert, wie zum Beispiel die Besichtigung von Baby Schildkröten am Strand. Auch trug er den ganzen Tag die Truhe mit den gekühlten Getränken😊
Die Tour begann für und um 7:45 und endete nach einem Zwischenstopp im Hotel gemeinsam auf einer Strand Party zu der David und einlud.
Auch an den kommenden Tagen stand er und mit Rat und Tat zur Seite.
Wir können die Tour einfach nur empfehlen: freundlich, kompetent und mehr Freund als Businessman.
Wir fühlten uns jederzeit willkommen und sicher.

Mit dieser Bewertung möchten wir uns nochmals bei David für die ereignisreichen Tage bedanken. read less

Perfect family adventure!! If I was to say David was a great host... read moreIf I was to say David was a great host I would be putting him down. He was great from the moment of booking, making sure we had anything we would need for the day, customised the tour so our toddler could come along but still have us a real adventure. He really went the extra mile at every opportunity.

Took us for doubles first thing (which are delicious!!) and had a story for every road, why things were the way they were on the island. The tour consists of little hikes and waterfalls that are safe wet exciting, our daughter managed to walk all day across the rocks and David helped us climb the rock faces and steep tracks with her. We could have gone higher through the levels if we were without her but I was still able to dive off the waterfalls and get what felt like a full experience.

If you're into food, he'll also take you around plantations and take you to pick local fruits off tree to taste. Had some delicious guavas, giant star fruit, coconuts, almonds straight off trees and also took us to two amazing authentic local restaurants through the day. Taught us about bread fruit and took us to get bread fruit pie which is phenomenal!!

When the day went on, he knew we weren't to be available for Sunday school so found us a bar / restaurant to see a steelband play along with a beachside bbq, this wasn't an added extra. He did this out of his own time and even drove us all home late so we didn't have to get a taxi - yet again going above and beyond for us.

The next day he took us to pigeon point with some amazing white sand beach and guided us on the nylon pools tour. Got us a discount on jet skis and looked after our daughter on the boat so me and my wife could go out and jetski without any worry. Jemima (my daughter) absolutely loved him and I couldn't have felt happier to leave her with him.

Also a huge highlight as my wife broke her phone while on holiday, David takes photos of everything and send you all of them at the end of the day. Which means you get to get on with the day and not have to worry about stopping all the time to take pictures!!

When we come back to tobago in a year or so we'll definitely give him a call. Whether that is for a tour or just to meet for a catch up over a meal. David really made us all feel like we became friends by the end of the day. read less

Simply the BEST I met an old friend from my school days in... read moreI met an old friend from my school days in Tobago and we decided to do an island tour. We landed on Island Girl Tours and The Grand Circle Island Tour. What a stroke of luck!!! David is the ultimate tour guide . He loves his job and his island and this energy just flows wherever he is. We did everything! Swimming, snorkeling, hiking, sightseeing, bird watching and more. We had an incredible lunch and some fantastic conversations. He is very intelligent, and was polite and a gentleman the whole way through! (Which is not always a common thing for women travelling by themselves, let me tell you , I've had some experiences on other islands) Anyway, David is awesome ,IGT is awesome and The Grand Circle Island Tour is awesome and not to be missed! I will say this to potential visitors to Tobago , NO ONE is doing anything near a tour like this in Tobago. I mean 12-13 hours???
The proof is in the pudding . Book this young man. You won't be disappointed. read less

David was amazing at communicating before we arrived (including changing dates due to the British Airways strike!), and was only too pleased to customise our day for the experience we wanted. Other tour operators were either going to lump us in with another group, or seemed to be just copying and pasting information. With David this was very much OUR tour, and nothing felt rushed or like it was too much trouble. I’m an introvert, so it was great feeling relaxed enough to have honest conversations with him about the island and the people. My recommendation is go early during your trip so you can make notes for local places to visit later on, and not to be shy about asking for anything you want to include. read less

From the very beginning, working with Island Girl Tours is a more comfortable, exciting, adventurous, fun experience than if I had planned all the details it myself.

With David’s charisma, friendliness, personalized attention, and genuine well-wishing for his guests’ ENTIRE experience, it’s easy to see why he has the #1 tour on the island!

He even takes amazing photos and videos to keep the memories while we savored the moments.

David — within the first hour of meeting, I knew we’d be friends for life.

I’m a big fan of Island Girl Tours and I know anyone would agree! read less

I've traveled to Tobago several times but have never discovered its best hidden secrets and exotic experiences. He customizes his tours to your needs and ensures your expectations are met and as a result he gets repeated guests due to his awesome reputation and pleasant disposition. I've known him for 32 years and his word is golden.
Thanks to him he was able to find us an amazing house on the beach that truly made our stay even memorable.
Most foreigners who visit exotic destinations long to experience the culture and discover it's people and definitely it's worth your time and effort to have David conduct your tours and I promise you won't be disappointed.
