Hey! I’m Roxy
Lupin Tours Owner, Tour Guide & Falkland Islander
At its core Lupin Tours is born of our love for our home and our passion for sharing the beauty of the Falkland Islands with our fellow adventurers.
The plan when Lupin Tours was in the planning was for it to just be me running tours and fitting it in with being a stay-at-home-Mum. However, the day our tours went live we received our first booking and from there we’ve grown and grown. We’re now very proud to have a handpicked team of around 14 fantastic guides!
We pride ourselves in going the extra mile and providing our guests with added special touches such as homemade food using homegrown ingredients, Falkland Islands themed activity books and colouring pencils for our young guests.
We work hard to create tours and experiences that inspire and delight our guests.
WHY THE NAME “LUPIN TOURS”?
Lupins hold a special place in Roxy’s heart
Roxy’s love of lupins started because each year her grandparents' garden would be home to impressive flower beds of colourful lupins. As a very young child the lupin flowers would tower above her and create seemingly magical areas in the garden perfect for exploring when visiting her grandparents.
After the passing of her beloved grandparents, Roxy moved in to their quaint stone cottage in the heart of Stanley in 2008. Without fail the lupins continue to adorn the garden year after year, swaying in the Falklands wind. Roxy continues to plant more lupins each year - you can never have too many right?!
In 2016 Doug and Roxy were married in their front garden surrounded by the beautiful lupins. Their children, Spencer (8) and Harrison (6), are now the 5th generation of Roxy's family to have lived in the house.
A family business
Lupin Tours is a family affair: with Roxy at the helm and her husband Doug supporting behind the scenes.
Roxy’s Mum helps to look after the couple’s children on tour days and her Dad is one of the Lupin Tours guides (he also has his own tour business, PK Tours, who Roxy sometimes guides for!)
