Nevis is a lesser-known but luxurious island in the southern Caribbean. Part of the Leeward Islands chain in the West Indies, along with sister island St. Kitts, Nevis beckons to travelers looking for a mix of resort relaxation and picturesque landscapes with a touch of adventure and a dash of history. Nevis showcases the opulence that has become this region’s calling card. Seclusion might be the No. 1 draw (Nevis doesn’t have a single streetlight), but there are many other lures. Beaches, historical sites, hiking, golf courses, spas, fine dining as well as several unique and wonderful botanical gardens.

Jerry Fritz is a graduate of Delaware Valley University who puts his lifelong passion for plants and design into every garden he creates.  Jerry never misses an opportunity to share his obsession with his design clients and fellow gardeners.

Amy Fritz is also a graduate of Delaware Valley University. She is the organizer and planner who meticulously researches and organizes the tours, setting up the bespoke itineraries and ensures a unique and special experience that cannot be duplicated.
