    We had an absolutely incredible tour experience with Riiah and The British Virgin Islands Food Taste Experience. From start to finish, Riiah was extraordinarily professional, passionate, and authentic. Riiah went above and beyond to accommodate my 81-year-old mother, who required accessible arrangements and scooter transport. Riiah graciously ensured every detail was handled seamlessly, exceeding all our expectations. The food on the tour was exquisite—well-prepared and delicious. Her colleagues were just as professional, kind, and accommodating as she was, which added to the overall experience. Despite an error on my part that led us to the wrong port, Riiah went out of her way to come and get us. This was not part of her planned day, but she did it with kindness, warmth, and a generous spirit. We are so grateful for all Riiah did to ensure my mom and I had a memorable trip to the British Virgin Islands. I highly, highly recommend this experience to anyone traveling to the BVI.

    The local operator did not show up and when we called were told that Viator cancelled the booking. Viator says they didn’t. Something happened but all I know is we didn’t. Waiting on the refund process

    Enjoyed making fresh Ceviche. Jerk Pork, jasmine rice and curry chicken were very good. Unfortunately, the tour guide was 30 minutes late and that started the experience off on the wrong foot. Only lasted about 1 hour and was advertised as 2 hours. Realized after guide said the experience was over that we should have gotten an adult beverage with the experience.

    The first impression was that the operator was 45 minutes late. She claimed Viator had cancelled the tour due to a holiday in the country but didnt tell us. We waited and called at our expense and they wanted us to reschedule from a 10:00 to 2:00 tour. I finally convinced her to do noon. Then...Too much work for amount of food. Overpriced. The conch experience was was more than we expected; had to break down frozen conch with very little meat. "Lunch" was luke warm mutton in gravy with 6 slices of sweet potato for 4 people to share. Nobody enjoyed the coconut water but nothing else was offered. The cocktails were our choice from the local bar and were fabulous. We expected to get to see the countryside but alas the ehole experience was in port.
