St Vincent Tours & Shore Excursions

Waterfalls, a volcano, a film set and a day in the Grenadines — every tour worth booking, compared.

St Vincent is not a mass-tourism island, and its tours are mostly run by small local operators — taxi drivers turned guides, hiking specialists and family boat businesses. That is good news: you get real local knowledge and small groups. The list below is grouped by how much time you have.

Everything here is booked through GetYourGuide, which gives you instant confirmation, free cancellation on most options and — crucially for cruise passengers — a clear pickup point. Prices are indicative "from" prices in euros; some private tours are priced per vehicle rather than per person. Tap any card for the live price in your own currency.

Looking for the Tobago Cays? GetYourGuide does not currently sell Tobago Cays trips. The easiest bookable way into the Grenadines is the Bequia day cruise; for the Cays, book locally on Union Island, Mayreau or Bequia — our Tobago Cays guide explains how.

Booking questions

Frequently asked questions

Which St Vincent tour is best for cruise passengers?

The Pirates of the Caribbean tour (about 4 hours, from around €45) is the most booked and fits any cruise call. If you want a swim in a waterfall, choose one of the Dark View Falls tours, which take about 5 hours — check your all-aboard time first.

Do tours pick up from the cruise terminal?

Most Kingstown tours meet at or near the cruise ship terminal or offer hotel pickup. The exact meeting point is shown on each listing and in your booking confirmation.

Can I book a Tobago Cays trip on GetYourGuide?

Not at the moment. Book Tobago Cays day trips locally from Union Island, Mayreau, Canouan or Bequia, or through your hotel. The Bequia day cruise is the Grenadines trip you can book online here.

Are private tours worth it?

Several St Vincent tours are priced per vehicle (for example up to four or six people). For a family or small group that often works out cheaper per head than a shared tour, and you set the pace.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Most listings offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start. The exact terms are shown on each tour page before you confirm.
