Rare MisterOJ2 Posted April 22, 2022 #1 Share Posted April 22, 2022 So my wife and I are looking into doing a tour/tasting at the Cayman Spirits Co. while we're in port in October. I was looking at the distillery's website and you can book tours there for $15 per person. I also found an excursion through another site that is $67 per person and (as far as I can tell) it's just the same tour plus transportation to and from the port. Would it be possible to just get a taxi there and back you think? Surely that would cost less than $100, right? Or would it make sense to just book the excursion and not worry about it? Also, if anyone has any insights about that particular distillery tour, I'd love to hear. $15 seems pretty cheap. Is it a nice enough time? Or should we just look into doing something different in Grand Cayman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkam2821 Posted May 5, 2022 #2 Share Posted May 5, 2022 The distillery is not far from the pier. Definitely can get a taxi. There is also a tour cmpany that includes transportation at a much loer cost, but sorry, I forgot which one. 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookbabe Posted May 6, 2022 #3 Share Posted May 6, 2022 If you call or email the distillery, they will know which tour company stops there on an excursion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skateycat Posted August 13, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 13, 2022 hoping to do the same in december, so keep us posted on how it went! i was also wondering if there were other distilleries on the island to visit. i am with you, i don't mind paying the extra for convenience, but if it is close enough by taxi i am pretty sure it would be more cost effective.

FlaMommy75 Posted October 31, 2023 #5 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Hello! We are stopping in Grand Cayman in a few weeks (Thanksgiving week) and was thinking about doing the same thing. I was also interested in the brewery possibly. Any recent updates on if it's worth a taxi ride. Is the bus also a possibility? Thanks 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tartist Posted February 7 #9 Share Posted February 7 @CoasterGuy I just went to the distillery last week! We did an excursion thru the ship that went to a few different stops. We picked it due to the distillery. Had a great time. It is pretty small but had a quick tour and then a tasting. I’d recommend checking it out! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterGuy Posted February 14 #10 Share Posted February 14 @tartist Thank you. Glad you enjoyed. I didn't book through the ship, so just hoping someone can chime in on what a taxi from the port to the distillery would be. I saw at least one review on another site where someone on the ship apparently walked there. Its about a 30 minute walk one way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CI:GO official taxi app says $14 usd each way for a party of 2, assuming I picked the correct locations. About 1.5 miles by car, depending on the route you take. Not sure I’d try to walk it, but I guess it’s technically possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterGuy Posted February 14 #12 Share Posted February 14 Didn't know there was such an app, but you gave me an idea. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterGuy Posted March 22 #13 Share Posted March 22 Back from my cruise just wanted to post an update for reference. I ended up walking to the distillery and back. 30 min walk each way. It was mostly safe with sidewalks but there were a couple places where I had to cross a busy road without a crosswalk and walk in the grass or side of the road with no sidewalk. Nobody tried to bother me while I was walking each way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
