What our guests say
"Amazing and very informative. The atmosphere was lively and entertaining. Great views of Plymouth — the lost city of Montserrat, covered up by volcanic ash."

"We've hiked with Scriber twice on Montserrat and each time he was a wonderful guide. He knows the flora and fauna very well, and works hard to call in birds and find other wildlife. An accommodating and encouraging hike leader."

"Did the volcano tour with Scriber. He and his crew were waiting when we got off the boat. Comfortable tour van, kept us a step ahead of the large tours through the volcanic ruins. He's also a naturalist, so he threw in a short nature walk at no extra cost."
