    Anthony should be up there with Trinidad legends such as Brian Charles Lara. What the man doesn’t know about his wonderful island home is not worth knowing. I was dropped in it by another tour company just 90 minutes before my planned trip to Maracas Bay. Thankfully I had met Anthony the night before on his food tour (also excellent by the way), so I dropped him a message on the off chance he could help me out. The man was there an hour later and what followed was one of the best days I’ve had on my travels anywhere in the world. I told Anthony what the other company had planned for the tour; he blew that itinerary out of the water! Instead of a drive and drop at Maracas, I got to visit 3 more stunning beaches, spend some time swimming in the Caribbean and actually learn about where I was. Anthony stopped off along the way at a couple of look out points so I could get the obligatory selfies, before crushing into Maracas for a look around. With the weather closing in, he suggested we head further along the coast to Las Cuevas. What a place! A long crescent of golden sand, clam crystal waters and amazing vibes. I’ve been to beaches all over the world from Australia to The Maldives, but this is my favourite. There’s just something about the place that’s special. After a swim, pelican watching and some time to chill on the sand, talking about the immense potential for tourism in Trinidad, Anthony promised to take me further along the north coast to beaches that tourists don’t normally get to see. We topped at L’anse Paoua beach - a tiny little bay that is well and truly off the tourist trail, but somewhere that is picture postcard Caribbean… it even has the horizontal palm tree! Having done three beaches, Anthony then decided it was worth having a change of scenery, so he took me to the end of the road, where the rainforest becomes too dense and the road just stops. We stood and chilled on a bridge overlooking the river as it opened into the sea, with barbecuing locals and the sounds of the forest as company. With the driver acting as the pivot point, we headed back towards Maracas, with Anthony talking passionately about his love for all things food and the stories that come with it. True to form, he threw in another surprise on the way, stopping at Yara beach - a place mainly used by fisherman that slowly reveals itself with a winding walk down a steep path. We were the only ones on the beach… something of a theme for the day. With the sun slowly beginning to set, we decided to drag ourselves off the deserted beach and head into Maracas. After an epic day of beach hopping along the north coast, we ended it with a Bake and Shark and a cold beer overlooking the beach, continuing to talk at about the intoxicating Trini culture and the values of equality and harmony that symbolise the island. The company was excellent, the beaches stunning and the food delicious. This was as close to a perfect day as you could wish for. Forget your run of the mill ‘Maracas Bay Trip’ - they’re not even in the same league as Anthony’s trip. If you want to experience Trinidad’s beauty, history, culture and food, then there’s nobody better than Anthony to guide you. Give his a shout, you won’t regret it!

    We had a wonderful experience with Trinidad food tours! We tasted delicious food from several off the beaten track places that Anthony knows personally and selects wisely. We also learned a lot about n Trini history and culture and how they are connected to famous dishes in the country - the Indian, African and middle eastern influence for example. Anthony is great at making adjustment to the menu to accommodate food allergies and taste. We also had a lovely bar stop which we requested and enjoyed much. Trinidad food tours is a highly recommended experience!

    Cannot recommend this enough! Booked the Night Time food tour for my first evening in Trinidad and it was the perfect intro to Trini history, life, food, Port of Spain and beyond! Anthony is so knowledgeable, funny, and relentlessly enthusiastic - even with Covid getting in the way which meant he had to come up with a plan B for one stop, and then a plan C! The whole evening was really wonderful - an absolute must-do when you're in Port of Spain.

    I recently had the pleasure of doing a night time street food tour in Trinidad. It was the perfect way to give my husband a crash course of Trinidadian food and culture. My roots are from Trinidad but I too wanted to feel like a tourist that day. Anthony the tour guide was amazing, he was very pleasant, fun and he had good energy. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the food and the history of the people of the island. I learned more about my culture and myself that day on this food tour. It was such a great experience for my husband and I, I would recommend that everyone go on this tour when they are in Trinidad!

    We had a fantastic day with Anthony on our Food Tours outing. He was knowledgeable, thoughtful, and kind. The restaurants, market and the food jubilee was so interesting. It was a unique experience and helped us understand the culture through the foods that were cooked and enjoyed. Along the way, we learned about historical sites and history of the Trinadad people. Anthony made it interesting and fun for the entire family, including two teen daughters. He surprised us with a beautiful scenic spot for the close of the day. I would say that Anthony enjoys what he does and we were so lucky to have meet him. Thank you Anthony

    Trinidad Food Tours is one of the BEST tours that I’ve been on. While it is a food tour, Anthony made sure we walked away with a better understand of the country- in the hours that we spent with him we learnt about the history, architecture, culture and he made extra stops to ensure we took in sights of the country. 100% recommended and so glad we found him!!!!

    Anthony was great. He makes you taste different flavors of food by engaging you in the history and diversity of the country. Will definitely recommend him, especially if you don't have a car or are tired of driving during the day in Trinidad. Just take the tour, sit, relax, listen to his stories and history, and savor the food.

    I am a Trinidadian living abroad who recently had the pleasure of doing Anthony's Night Tour. Shortly after he picked me up he asked: what are my expectations? I told him if he could give me a taste of Trinidad I had not experienced before or show me a part of the country I had never been to, he would have met my expectations. He surpassed my expectations by giving me both experiences wrapped up--like a roti!--with stories of the island. He is a natural storyteller who loves what he does and this love is evident in every moment along the tour, from how he greets travellers to how talks about the country's street food culture.

    Anthony, our tour guide made this one of the highlights of our 10 year wedding anniversary trip! He was phenomenal in his knowledge of Trinidadian history, his love of his country and his passion for the food he had us trying along the tour! The tour he orchestrated had a taste from a few of the various cultures of Trinidad and each taste was excellent!! My wife and I highly recommend taking the food tour with Anthony as your guide!!

    We had an absolute lovely experience tasting delicious food during this Trinidad food tour. Besides food Anthony shares a lot of other Trini history and fun facts. Definitely recommend it and we would love to come back and book another tour to taste and experience Trinidad even more.

    Anthony was an amazing tour guide! He not only shared the rich culture of Trinidad with us but he took us to some nice local food spots. The food locations were not only unique and authentic but they were top quality. They were clearly local favorites, each spot had a sizable crowd around it. Also the locations of the food were spread out allowing us to see more of the island in a short amount of time. I can not stress enough how amazing the food was and kind and funny the tour guide Anthony was. We highly recommend this food tour!!

    First time seeing Anthony you connect with him right away, great fun guy with good spirits. I took my mom along for the tour and the happiness I saw on her face was great. Anthony picked out some food spots that’s unique, had a meaning and delicious. And yes I’ll do it again 💯

    Excellent food tour! Anthony is very knowledgeable and passionate about his country and culture. Great glimpse into the daily life of locals. We felt very comfortable with our guide. Easily the highlight of our trip. Come hungry! Highly recommended 👌

    This might be the best tour we have ever taken. The tour takes you to places that a visitor would never find to sample true Trini food experiences. From roadside stands to street corner food stalls to hidden gems, this tour will provide you with a belly full of delicious flavours and a heart full of lifelong memories. Anthony is a tremendous guide: knowledgeable, personable and entertaining. You will learn not just about the food, but where it fits in the history and culture of Trinidad. He even stopped by the panyards so we could catch the island rhythms. We took this tour on our first night in Trinidad and can’t think of a better way to get to know the soul of the island. We recommend it VERY highly.
