Great day! - Our driver Raphael was friendly, knowledgeable and willing to work with us. We had a gentleman with us that had a scooter and he helped load in van at each stop. Botanical garden was beautiful and mineral baths refreshing. FYI the road is very winding up and down hills. Lovely day. Prompt !!!

A Great Tour - We were greeted with warmth and professionalism of our tour guide, Raphael who possess an intimate knowledge of the island's hidden treasures and lesser-known gems. He is a knowledgeable guide who just doesn't conduits of information; he's a storyteller who breathe life into St. Lucia's rich tapestry of history, culture, and natural wonders. He covered all the tour points i.e Morne viewpoint and Marigot Bay, BotanicGardens, Soufriere Volcano. Immensly enjoyable tour worth recommending.
Only negative point was state of road condition. Most of the St Lucian roads are in a state of disrepair.

St Lucia Castries to Pitons tour - This tour is great value for money, the tour guide Raphael was punctual and very professional, he adjusted the tour to our requirements (admittedly easier as there were only two of us) being a St Lucian he was very knowledgeable and understood our interests and likes. I would thoroughly recommend this tour as a taster of St Lucia.

A most enjoyable way to discover St Lucia - We very much enjoyed the trip. The car was comfortable and we had plenty of room as two poeple also booked on failed to turn up. Dovon was delightful and happy to adapt the tour to suite our needs. We were able to enjoy dicovering the countryside and sights of the Island The views of The Pitons were unforgetable and the botanic gardens were another high spot for us.

Good value to see Pitons and Sulphur springs - Great trip! Tour guide was very accommodating and on time picking up at cruise port. Loved the Sulphur Springs tour and Pitons viewing. Good value. No problem getting back to ship on time!

Needs more time at Pitons - We had a very enjoyable tour round Dt. Lucia but as the tour was supposed to be more about the Pitons, I was somewhat puzzled by the other things we did such as stopping to sample sauces and drinks and encouraged to buy!!! Then off to a sulpher springs which wasn’t very big( I have been to Roatarua in New Zealand which was massive!! If I hadn’t asked the guide to stop so I could get out and take a picture of the Pitons I don’t think it would have happened and this was the one thing I was keen to see. I enjoyed seeing something of St. Lucia as this was my 3rd attempt at cruising there but a little disappointed . I would have liked to have spent a little time in Soufriere! Maybe the tour title should be changed ?

Disappointed - Not a good guide. Very disappointing. We know all the trees but not much else. Guide not very informative or interesting. Very dull.

Lousy tour - We were taken around St. Lucia but the tour guide hardly communicated with the group. We have been on many tours in the past, and the tour guide always gives you the history and other pertinent information of the place we were visiting. He answered questions but that was about it. Worst tour guide we've encountered. That is the reason for the two-star rating.

St. Lucia Beautiful, guide unfortunately listless. - St. Lucia is incredibly beautiful, we were totally overwhelmed, unfortunately we were unlucky with the guide. We were greeted nicely by the guide, he asked us in English what we were looking forward to, we said the waterfalls and the Pitons. He noticed that we didn't speak perfect English at times. We set off without any description from the guide. We had the tour itinerary in the app. On the way, only a banana plantation was briefly explained, and our questions were answered briefly.
At the photo stop at the Pitons, we asked if we could get out, and the answer was yes. The first stop, which was stored in the app, was only briefly stopped, and no exit was offered.
He then asked us what else we wanted to see, we were confused, we had booked a fixed tour. We then drove to the botanical garden, as planned, which was great... After 45 minutes we got back to the car, he didn't even get out, and asked again where we wanted to go. We were prepared for a fixed tour and so asked what else there was. The volcanic springs mentioned in the tour were mentioned, but the entrance fee was very expensive... then we told him to drive back to the ship, but he should let us out at the nearby beach. He drove us back to Castries without saying a word. He didn't even stop at any great viewpoint, it seemed like he just wanted to drop us off quickly. After almost 4 hours, of which over 3 hours were spent in the car, we were back on the ship, frustrated.
