The history of rum starts in the Caribbean around the 17th century. Cooking with Rum talks about the history and influence of rum on the Caribbean, its culture and its cuisine. Various rums will be present for tasting and flavoring the foods. Since we are on Antigua, we will start with the island award winning 5-year old English Harbor rum and then move on to three other superb brands from countries such as Barbados, Guatemala, Cuba, Jamaica and Martinique. The food will introduce our guests to how various rums can be used to flavor foods whether you are using a classic dark rum or a filtered white. Take this class not just to explore new flavours, but to enjoy the experience of cooking with new friends in a West Indian home with great view of the Caribbean Sea!

“What did the fisherman bring?” is always the question the morning of a seafood class,  This means that the menu is determined by what's available from the local fishermen.  Whether it is Mahi Mahi, snapper, tuna or grouper, a delicious lunch using a local fish will be the end result. In From the Sea, Nicole introduces you to a variety of ways in which seafood is prepared in the islands.  You can have a stuffed whole fish, filet, or even Peleau (a dish that has as many personalities as islands in the Caribbean). Be prepared for a menu that adjusts from the one listed based on what’s fresh and off the boats.  But also be prepared to have fun as we adapt, create, and enjoy what we prepare and eat! Take this class not just to explore new flavours, but to enjoy the experience of learning new recipes with new friends in a West Indian home with great view of the Caribbean Sea!

What makes this experience special is the opportunity to explore Antigua’s beautiful coastline using the SeaNXT jet sea scooter, a powerful and easy-to-use device that allows you to glide effortlessly across the water and explore more of the reef with minimal effort. Unlike traditional snorkeling, the SeaNXT’s jet propulsion lets you cruise comfortably along the surface while observing marine life below, with the option to dip underwater for short rides when you feel adventurous. The experience takes place at Galleon Beach, one of Antigua’s most scenic and calm bays, known for its clear water, vibrant reef, and frequent sightings of tropical fish and sea turtles. The calm conditions make it ideal for both beginners and confident swimmers. With small groups and guidance from experienced instructors, you’ll enjoy a safe, relaxed adventure while discovering one of the island’s most beautiful coastal environments in a unique and exciting way.

You never want a vacation to end; it's never long enough. That's why we've planned this comfortable tour of Antigua. You'll be able to swim in the shallow waters of Stingray City (you don't need to know how to swim because the water is chest-deep). You'll also be able to swim at one of the most beautiful white-sand beaches in the Antilles: Long Bay Beach. Snorkeling here is also perfect for those who want to try this unusual activity (equipment included). A vacation isn't a real journey if you don't understand the origins of its people, which is why we'll take you to the former sugarcane plantation where more than 300 slaves worked. We'll also take you to photograph the most photographed site in Antigua: Devil's Bridge. During the day, we'll savor a dish of authentic Caribbean cuisine. The most comprehensive tour of the island is waiting for you to discover it... Maximum on the group in the van 14 persons BUT at Stingray City will be others people from other companies.
