Best tour for US Invasion/military history of Grenada?

Hi all!

The BF is a HUGE military history buff and would love to do a tour that focuses on the US Invasion and similar history of the island. Of course, we would like a little bit about the spices, beautiful scenery, etc as well. Has anyone done a tour like this? Who on the island would you recommend? We are fine booking a private tour or doing one with a smaller group.

Thank you for your insight!

Honestly this isn't something we have going as a set tour that I am aware of. Depending on which side you were on determines whether you call it an Intervention or an Invasion by the USA. Simply put revolutionaries would call it an invasion as it stopped their revolution.

It is still extremely raw and personal to everyone here on the island as families were literally torn apart and still are. :(

Honestly I would recommend you contact Mandoo Seales mandoo@grenadatours.com and ask him. I found him to be fascinating and while he can talk about the general island stuff he is a walking encyclopaedia and probably would be able to either do a fantastic job or would point you in the right direction. I wish you the very best and hope you have a great time on our island. :cool:
