Need to Book A Nevis or St Kitts

So you want to book a Nevis or St Kitts shore excursion? Since establishing my web site, I have received many e-mail enquiries (from both cruise ship passengers and stay over visitors) about available tours in St. Kitts and Nevis and how to book a Nevis or St Kitts shore excursion.

In response to your repeated requests for more information about St Kitts taxi tours and other exciting St Kitts cruise excursions available for booking, I have put this St Kitts shore excursion page together.
