The 7 Hiking & Trekking in Antigua That Earn Their Price

1.TRIPLE ACTIVITY TOUR, Bike Kayak Hike, ANTIGUA

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 211 reviews · from $130Our pick

Cycle through St. John’s with guides Giles or Mark, paddle into a mangrove reserve, stop at a beach, and walk to historic Fort James. This relaxed, roughly three-hour outing covers about 8 miles on mostly flat roads, with helmets, water, four bike-frame sizes, and a maximum of 11 people.

“The tour with Giles was great. He is very accommodating, knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about his home island of Antigua. This tour is not physically demanding, but more of moderate level of activity. My wife isn't the most confident of bikers, but Giles always made sure we had the right of way with the little bit of traffic leaving the city and by the end of the tour she felt great about the ride. The kayaking was relaxing and peaceful. The Fort that Giles took us to very interesting, and the small beach (St. John's I think) was stunning. All in all it was an excellent morning with Giles and…”

7.Guided Morning and Sunset Hikes

★★★★★★★★★★3.1 · 3 reviews · 3h 30m · from $90

You’ll hike Antigua with an English-speaking local guide on a 210-minute morning or sunset outing. Choose Sugar Apple, Mango, Tamarind, Stinking Toe, or a custom route. Expect tropical plants, birds, fruit, historic ruins, high viewpoints, and round-trip transport.

“Started ok, but the last third was a rock climb, which didn’t fit the description of a ‘mild to moderate’ hike. Walking up and down hills is no problem, but the end of this trek could only be classed as a challenge. Guide also took us the wrong way and we had to back track over very difficult terrain. Not recommended (by me). It should have been categorised correctly, it certainly wasn’t ’mild to moderate’. We will never book anything like this again.”
