5Wonderful custom tour experience!
I have used StLucia Taxi and Tours several times over the last few years. I have done two private tours and both were excellent. I booked custom because i could not find exactly what i wanted to do. I had a specific list of places i wanted to visit, and no pre-set tour seemed to fit. I wanted Tet Paul walk, the Botanical Gardens and Diamond Waterfall, and a quick look at Pitons.Custom was so much more personal, and cost effective. Our driver guides were professional, timely, and kept us on track. I have also used them for clients over the last few years as well. Every one comes back happy!
5The best of st lucia
Herman was an excellent guide! We told him the things that were most important to us. He customized our trip on the fly. And it couldn't have been more perfect! We stopped at a local place that had many different types of rum. It was very reasonably priced to try as many flavors as we wanted! We went to the drive in volcano and did the mud baths. He was there with us the entire time taking photos for us. Then he took us to the piton falls that are less visited. The water was perfect and such a beautiful easy to access waterfall! And along the way he made stops for scenic views and told us about the island. We highly recommend booking a trip with Herman!!
5Great Island Tour
Great island tour! You get to plan your itinerary around what you want to do and get recommendations aswell. Smooth running day from start to finish, we got picked up from Rodney Bay and taken along varies stop along the way & finished off in Soufriere having lunch near the Pitons. Would highly recommend this, great value for money and worth it. Also cool box with beers and water was a massive thumbs up.
5Good
Good driver knew where to park so it was convenient.
5Scenic Views
We did the 6-hour tour. Pick up was at 8:30am. It took about 2 hours to get to the south side with the morning rush hour traffic. The south part of the island has most of the excursions, such as ATV, zipping, chocolate factory, and waterfalls. We were able to visit the Toraille Waterfall, stop to see views of the Pitons, stop at a cocoa plantation, and then have lunch at the Mango Tree Restaurant. Then we drove about 1 1/2 hours back to the Windjammer. The roads are very winding, so not good for anyone who gets carsick. There were plenty of opportunities to buy souvenirs along the way and nice scenic areas to take pictures.
5Great day
Herman was a great guide who took us to all the places we wanted to see. Never in a rush and ample of time at all destinations. Highly recommend
