Must do for travellers to Tobago My family and I travelled to Tobago during this summer... read moreMy family and I travelled to Tobago during this summer vacation. We got in touch with David for the Island tour after reading the reviews on trip advisor. Despite the fact that we had been to Tobago before and thought we knew all the popular tourist stops, we were surprised to find there were many gorgeous places that we had not discovered on our previous trips. I really appreciated that David worked with us to customize the tour - before the tour he went through the route and tour stops with us and asked about our interests. We were able to spend more time in the places that we wanted to. This tour was the highlight of our trip - my kids aged 12 and 15 also commented on how much they enjoyed this part of the vacation. I would highly recommend this tour to any first time visitors to Tobago and even those who have been there before and think they know all the stops. It is a must do! David thank you for your amazing hospitality and for showing us an awesome time! read less

Can’t wait for you to come back and we do it all again! See you in a few months! read less

You will learn to love this tiny island from this tour and will never want to leave.

David is a complete professional and will ensure you have the best experience you possible can, putting you first and making sure you get your money’s worth.

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

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.

Sympathic guide with perfect service We were visiting Tobago for our honeymoon and were only... read moreWe were visiting Tobago for our honeymoon and were only informed about Tobago via searches on the internet. We booked David based on the offered content and the professional description.

David contacted us in advance and asked for preferences and was modeling everything of the tour to our needs. He arrived punctual and was a great guy from the beginning on. We had great conversations while he drove us around the island, handled us snacks when we needed them, and when he found out we liked something more, he changed the tour so we could enjoy it more.

We bathed in lonely waterfalls, we were relaxing on almost empty beaches, we asked a lot and he knew everything about this island. From tourists with sparse informations we became fans of Tobago with a good knowledge of were to go on the island.

Actually we became fans so much, we extended our stay for a week! read less

Just great! I contacted David of islandgirl tours after being stood up... read moreI contacted David of islandgirl tours after being stood up by another tour operator and he was extremely accommodating and generous with the last minute booking I did with him. My friends and I booked the Caribbean coast tour to do some snorkelling and it was just amazing. We didn't have a car and David also organised a pick up and drop off for us that which was very impressive because he didn't have to do that for us. We were taken to 3 different spots by captain Jason, who was very informative about the history of the island and the history of the different sites. At no point did we feel rushed while we were swimming and watching the marine life. After the snorkelling we were taken dolphin watching and then to No Man's Land for lunch. I will totally book with this tour operator again because, although I didn't get to personally meet David, I was very pleased by his professionalism and also his accommodating nature. If you're looking for a tour operator to do something fun in Tobago, look no further than islandgirl tours! It's great! 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

Paradise Found My wife and I travelled to Tobago in March 2019... read moreMy wife and I travelled to Tobago in March 2019 and are forever thankful for meeting David with Island Girl Tours.

He picked us up at 8am at the Starfish Tobago hotel on Turtle Beach. Our first destination was Fort King George so we headed across the island to this historic site. If you are a historian, Tobago and all it’s forts are a must see.

From there, we headed north towards Fort Granby and our next destination, Argyle Falls. We were in awe on how around every turn, the views and vistas were so beautiful. Tobago is much more mountainous than we had expected and we loved every moment and the stories David told us as we toured.

We spent about 45 minutes at Argyle Falls and although we didn’t brave swimming in the lower pools, we did enjoy watching others climb up and jump in. I will admit flip flops are not a good idea as the rocks can be slippery so running or water shoes are recommended. David had mentioned this prior to and was totally good with us packing a day bag and leaving it locked in his SUV.

From there, we headed inland to the Main Ridge Reserve and were able to see some beautiful birds and wildlife. It was from the Bloody Bay Recreation Site that the view was truly magical - we couldn’t tell where the ocean ended or the sky began.

From there, we headed to Speyside which was originally a sugar estate. It was here we stopped and had lunch and a cold beer at a local establishment. It was clean and the food was tasty.

Our next stop was Flag Staff Hill which overlooks Charlotteville - this is where the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean meet. There wasn’t much to Flag Staff other than a stunning view and if you needed a place to stretch your legs, you could do it while taking it all in.

Next stop was Fort Campbelton - another amazing panoramic view - all the while, David offered a history lesson of all these places.

From there, we stopped for a cold beer at Paradise Point in Parlatuvier, met some kind locals and had some laughs. At this point, we were on the Atlantic side of the island and can honestly say, we had fallen in love.

By now, it was about 2PM and it was getting hot so our next stop was Englishman’s Bay for a swim! It was a quiet beach with smooth stones underfoot, crystal clear water and the perfect place for a dip. We did see people snorkelling here and would go back another time with our gear.

From there, we stopped at The Castara Retreat for a cappuccino and met the owner. We saw wild parrots in the trees, stingrays in the bay below and took in some calypso music.

Somewhere between Castara Bay and our hotel, David pulled over on the side of the road and we had doubles - a local lunch - made with chic peas and flat bread. It was delicious and we had officially caught our Island Girl vibe!

David is kind, knowledgeable and we always felt safe on his tour. He was always quick to answer questions on Whats App and helped us plan other days during our vacation.

He is LGBT friendly, knows Tobago like the back of his hand and certainly was a huge part in making our first trip to Tobago, unforgettable.

Thank you David @ Island Girl Tours, Tobago. 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

David provided us with one of the most indepth, educational and most importantly fun tour we have ever been on. He took us around the island and showed us the best sights. From Castara to Argyle Falls to Parlatuvier. Not only was he very knowledgeable about the culture and nature of Tobago, he was also a joy to be around. And he was very accommodating for our little one. Dave was born and raised in T&T but he also lived in Canada for many years. So he knows exactly what North Americans want out of a vacation while also being fully emersed in the Caribbean world. He also showed us the wonderful cuisine that Tobago has to offer, including the Trinidadian delicacy doubles, and an array other culinary delights. I recommend David and Island Girl Tour's to anymore looking to travel to Tobago. You will not be disappointed! read less

Because it was the carnival season, finding a place to stay was proving difficult and David was kind enough to allow our group to stay on his property. While there, he educated us on Tobago and its history. He's extremely knowledgeable and it became very obvious that he cares deeply about Tobago and its people. Ontop of his guided tours, he gave us some impromptu tours of the island during Carnival. His approach to introducing you to Tobago felt more like a personal experience and when my partner proposed to me on this Trip he even celebrated with us! He's an all around good soul and I would highly recommend him. Even if it's just for some company. read less

David is more than a tour guide, but a true ambassador of Tobago. With Island Girls, your guide has a deep love for his country, and his mission is to share this passion. Having lived overseas for a significant period of time (Canada), David not only understands the land from which you come, but also anticipates the questions you may have, the beauty you’ll be astounded by, and the experiences that alter the way you see the world. We learned more about Trinidad & Tobago in the first 30 minutes of the tour than in all our pre-trip preparation. He is extremely well-connected with local business owners, so it felt as if we got VIP treatment at every stop. I also appreciate the many accommodations and adjustments David made to the tour to accommodate my wife’s broken leg! David personally made our vacation much more meaningful than it would have been had we not taken this tour. Relax and enjoy the ride. read less

Partly because of David and the awesome experiences we had with him. I can't thank you enough for always connecting quickly, giving us realistic options and for making my baby sister's birthday one to remember for a lifetime. The customized tour we had was breath-taking and REALLY informative. The bioluminescence tour was my sisters'favorite part albeit I was was terrified because I'm not a swimmer lol. I will never go back to Tobago without connecting with David. Can't wait for my husband to meet him next time. Thank you so much for helping to make a WONDERFUL vacation for my family!! read less
