Excellent time with Lloyd today

Richard_M, Mar 2026
Had a great time with Lloyd. He was personable, knowledgeable and ensured we had a good day. We wanted this tour to avoid having to pay for admission at the stops that required them. Bathing in the volcano mud bath was optional (we weren’t interested) and required additional admission if you were interested. He made sure we got to the best picture locations.

We are happy that you had a great time!

Let Shal do the driving for you.

Craig_S, Feb 2026
Shal was a fantastic guide. He had a great attitude and it was obvious he was describing the island as a native, not someone reading a tour book. The roads on this island are insane by U.S. standards with nothing but steep hills, blind turns, no shoulders, and questionably two lanes. Couldn't pay me enough to drive it myself, but Shal handled like a pro and never made us feel unsafe. Tour itself shows all the highlights of the island without making us feel rushed or the standard pressure to buy add-ons.

Thank you for your kind review!

A natural beauty

Geeta_S, Oct 2023
The day was a bit overcast which added the low fog on the tops of the volcano peaks, making for a picturesque view....the mud bath though a bit daunting was an experience worth every minute, as the results left a lasting memory...one of nature's wonder and beauty worth seeing in St Lucia

Thank you, Shal, for a great day!

Chelsea_S, Jul 2023

Piton mud path tour

Kacie_K, Mar 2023
Jason was the best driver, he told us about the history of the island and gave us local stories. The mud baths and hot springs, and local beach was my favorite part

Great time!

Great day spent on a private tour with Shal! We were there on a day tour with a cruise and he was a friendly and super knowledgeable tour guide. Managed to also beat the crowds in most spots which was a welcome change!

Beautiful Island

Alice_B, Dec 2022
Shal was a wonderful tour guide and made this trip extra special. He was very knowledgeable about the island and very willing to share.

1st excursion

Kipp_H, Jun 2022
Our tour guide Shal was very knowledgeable and took us to all the right places. He answered all of our questions and explained things to us that we did not think of to ask.

Best excursion ever

Dlvalenti, Feb 2020
We absolutely loved our St. Lucia shire excursion! Jason and Jacob were awesome! They were very friendly and informative. Not only did they know their island they loved. Anything we showed extra interest in they spent extra time making sure we completely knew all about it! We felt very on the roads with them as the roads are very narrow and windy. The excursion covered a lot of the island and saw all of the islands highlights and beauty.

Response from Host, Feb 2020

We are happy that you had a great day, you were lovely guests !

St Lucia tour

Jay_C, Jan 2020
My wife and I booked tours with Viator on every stop on our cruise and they were all excellent but this one was the most exciting. We made numerous stops that included a fishing village, the rainforest, and the Soufriere volcano. We did a lot of walking and had many photo ops at the stops. My wife had the time of her life at the volcano mud pits, however I was content to watch her as she is the adventurous one. It was a long day but was back at the ship in plenty of time. The only thing that was mildly annoying was the locals coming up to us at the stops to sell us different stuff like figures made from plant leaves and so forth. I wasn't prepared for that but I guess they have to make a living too.

Response from Host, Jan 2020

We are happy that you had a great day in St.Lucia!

Great Tour

Bailey B, Aug 2019
Josh and Jacob took us around and had so much information about the island. They were very patient with us and let us take our time at each site. We felt safe and comfortable the whole time. We would highly recommend them. If you at all get car sick I would recommend some dramamine before this trip. You are in the car for hours on windy roads. Besides that everything was great

Response from Host, Aug 2019

Thank you for your kind review, you were great guests !

Learned so much!

Altagracia G, May 2019
St. Lucia is one of the prettiest islands! This tour was great, with many stops and the guide offered us a local treat at each stop. The waterfall stop was my fave! Also enjoyed learning about all the different fruits that grow on the islands and visiting the Pitons! So cool. Great way to explore the island.

Maryann M, Feb 2018
This tour took started at the northern part of St Lucia where we were picked up at our Rodney Bay resort and driven down the West coast stopping at various sites along the way into Soufriere. Our driver Shal confirmed with us after booking and arrived promptly at 8:30 am as promised. The tour included all that was described. The car was roomy, clean and comfortable and Shal offered us drinks and snacks along the way. We stopped and viewed beautiful sites along the coast, visited a banana plantation and enjoyed a free sample there. Eventually we reached the city of Soufriere and drove up to the volcano for a tour viewing the sulfur springs and then the waterfalls. We declined the mudbath but I did go in the water. Shal was very knowledgeable and gave us a full description of everything. He was very pleasant and a safe driver as well. We totally enjoyed the whole experience and had a wonderful day. I would highly recommend this tour. There is a set schedule yet some flexibility in what you would prefer to spend time on.
