I went for the views not the history. The views are amazing. Make sure to drive to the picnic area behind the gift shop. We saw wild goats. Full review by oklambsrus

Sorry, just saw this - we took a Roberts tour. One issue is the port requires a tender so you need to be sure you have plenty of time to make the return tender. We thought the site was well worth the cost and time of the tour even though the tour guide and coffee plantation stop were not. There is also a stop at a painted church - tour (Roberts or other) is probably much cheaper than cab. Rental car is an option, but the tender issue complicates that.
