Guidekin's take

Taste four rums in a guided session covering rum history and craftsmanship, with a short film.

A welcome rum punch is included, but this is a visitor tasting experience rather than a distillery tour, and transport is excluded. 4.79 from 775 reviews at €25 per person for 1h.

In our comparison: #9 of 13 in Rum & Food Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
