Your own jeep, in half the day
Your own Land Rover, guide and route, in a morning or afternoon. The private experience sized for shorter stays, packed schedules and cruise calls.
The private day, in a tighter window
Not everyone has a full day to give — cruise guests ashore for the afternoon, families with a packed itinerary, anyone who wants the private treatment without committing eight hours. The private half day gives you your own jeep, guide and route in a morning or an afternoon.
Per-group pricing, an island-born guide to yourselves, and a plan shaped entirely around the time you’ve got.
Your route, your priorities
A morning or an afternoon built around the few things you most want to see. Tell us the must-dos and we make them fit the time you have.
Sized for cruise calls
Ideal if you're ashore for the day: a private guide who plans around your hours and gets you back with time to spare.
Just your group
A whole jeep and guide to yourselves, no strangers to wait for. Per-group pricing that works well for families and small groups.
A private plan that flexes with the sky
Even in a shorter window, going private means the route can move to the weather. Your guide points the time you have at wherever the island is looking its best.
We make the most of the mountains and viewpoints while they're out.
We keep it low and scenic — coast, villages and easy stops in the good light.
We prioritise ruthlessly so your few hours land on the things that matter most to you.

Questions we get asked
Can you do this from a cruise ship?
Yes — the private half day is well suited to cruise guests ashore for the day. Port pick-up is available for a small fee. See the Cruise page for how timing around your ship works.
How many people can come?
[TBD — confirm the maximum private group size with Jeff.] The price is per group rather than per person, so it's strong value for families and small groups.
Morning or afternoon?
Either. Tell us what suits your schedule when you book and we'll plan the route to match the light and your timing.
Is booking live yet?
[TBD — the private half day is being set up as its own FareHarbor item. Until that's live, the Book button opens our booking page; message us on WhatsApp and we'll sort your date directly.]
