With thanks to the very positive reviews about Mark and Rising Sun Taxi Services on various platforms I booked the return airport transfer and an island tour and I’m very pleased to say that we were very happy with the services received.
The booking process was very easy and Mark answered all of my questions promptly via messenger before our arrival.
AIRPORT TRANSFER
We stayed at the Royalton and whilst I was dreading the long transfer I am pleased to say it actually wasn’t that bad. As soon as we cleared customs and picked up our bags, Kenny was waiting for us. He escorted us to a modern and air conditioned van, gave us some refreshments, (beer and water) and chatted with us the entire way pointing out local sites and explaining the history of the island. As it was peak time he took a short cut through the back streets, getting us to the hotel way quicker than the shuttles. From memory I think it was 1hr, 45 min compared to the people who travelled via the main route who told us that it took them 3 hrs.
The return trip to the airport was with Mark, he was so lovely, also got us to the airport in record times, he knew how to avoid the traffic and was such a safe driver. The trip back to the airport was less than two hours. Mark pointed out local landmarks, answered our endless questions and was just a fantastic all round guy.
ISLAND TOUR
We were privileged to have Mark escort us on an island tour. He has a knack of getting to each location ahead of the crowds. He shared with us his extensive knowledge of the island, his family’s history, lots of friendly banter and most importantly took very good care of us. He was more than a private tour guide, he treated us as friends. We felt safe at all times and he ensured we had a wonderful day. His wife’s rum punch was delicious. We were also privileged to enjoy local cuisine at restaurant over looking the Pitons.
My family and I were very happy with both the transfer and island tour and highly recommend Mark and Rising Sun Taxi services.
