Amazing service. Arrived to someone there to escort me and my wife to a line that was specific to our group we traveled with. The line went fast, then they escorted us to check in with customs and someone was at customs to grab our bags and take us to our vehicle. Our driver was great and showed told us plenty about the island. Great choice for me and the wife.

Come enjoy the therapeutic waters of our Sulphur Springs (our very own fountain of youth).  Locals say a bath in here will remove ten years off you.  That we cannot guarantee, but we can guarantee that you will feel a difference in the softness of your skin as the mud acts as an exfoliant.  Rinse off at the Toraille Water Falls and learn a little about the flora and fauna on Island at the Diamond Botanical Gardens. This tour has an approximate duration of six hours. N.B. All tours between now and December 31st 2020, will be conducted as private tours at no additional charge.

Vicky is great! She picked us up with a smile and we headed to the Tet Paul Nature Trail for beautiful views. Then we saw the volcano and finished off with a walk at the botanical gardens. Vicky took care of all the admissions and we had a personal guide for each experience. Such a great way to see and learn about the island! We did it on one of our first days, and we’re so glad we did not rent a car, it’s worth having a pro do the driving! A tip: if you’re staying in the Castries area, it’s a long swervy drive to Soufriere... but all the stops are worth it. You’ll be gone most of the day, so take a few snacks, water, sunscreen or a hat, etc. There are washrooms at each stop. We definitely recommend booking a tour with Vicky, she’s just like all the reviews say: friendly, knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with!

The best part of our trip! I was searching for an excursion that was going to get us the best bang for our buck. Since most of the resorts are northwest of the island, I wanted a tour that was going to be able to bring me to the highlights of St. Lucia which are mainly south of the island. This exceeded our expectations! Not only did we see everything but he gave us the flexibility to choose where and what we wanted to do. He gave us so much history about the island and he made sure we were safe the entire time! VERY COVID FRIENDLY! It was a great second-day activity because we were able to see a snapshot of what the entire island has to offer and then go back to the places that we enjoyed so much. It saves you a TON of money on taxi fair. Just stop what you're doing and book them. Trust me, it's worth it! Oh, and bring snacks! :)

Booked a tour for April 30th 2020 for 4 people. Had to cancel because of COVID. I have been getting the run around ever since trying to get a refund. It’s been over a year and they have finally ghosted me after many email contact attempts. It’s not even about the money anymore, it’s the principle of a companies word that the refund will be issued. Be very careful of this company in the instance you need to cancel.

Shal, our guide and driver of the Jungle Tour Landrover jeep, was just right for us two adventurous couples. With a cooler full of waters, beers and rumpunch, we saw tropical rainforest, ate freshly baked bread from a local village bakery (no sign on the building, but Shal knows this kind of thing) bought local jerk seasoning and handmade woven baskets. I had my misgivings about the mud baths at the volcano, but we had a blast. There were a bunch of young Germans at the time. We all got covered in the special cleansing clay (with bathing suits on). Pretty rustic, but a cool experience. We felt refreshed and my skin was so soft afterwards. Shal was so personable, we ended up singing country songs with him as we whizzed through the beautiful landscape. One warning, when the top is on the Landrover, it gets fumy inside. We only had the top on when it was raining. Most of the day it was not raining, and the fresh air and sweet rich fragrance of the rainforest made up for it. Our lunch in Soufriere with a spectacular view of the Pitons over the bay was delicious - I was surprised by and enjoyed what tasted like potato salad, but was made with green bananas, no potatoes at all! Shal got us back to the cruise ship just in time - what a full fun day!
