Reese is the man. He was very thoughtful, tool his time to explain everything and was on time. He waited for us and even made stops at some locals areas for my wife and i to take pictures. Will.definitely use his.company again.
Thank you so much for the 5-star review and for the "Reece is the man" shout-out! We are thrilled to hear you had such an amazing time on our Rhythm of Rum Tour. Reece really takes pride in going the extra mile, and we’re so glad he was able to customize the trip with stops at local spots for you and your wife to grab those perfect photos. Taking the time to explain the island's sights while staying perfectly on schedule is exactly the "pro" experience we strive for. We can't wait to have you back for another round of rum and local culture! Warm regards, The FRAM Tours St. Lucia Management Team
Our driver Miguel was great! He was prompt picking us up from our resort. Our commute time was about an hour. During that time, he shared information on island history and island current events. He stopped a few times to allow us to take pictures overlooking parts of the island. He even showed us popular areas for food and shopping. When we arrived at the distillery Miguel took care of everything. All we had to do was walk through the gates and have a seat. Our tour guide Libby introduced herself and started us off with a 5 minute video of the distillery. We then had a tour of the property. Libby was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. It was obvious she enjoys what she does. It was nice to see that Carnival Culture is included in the tour. They have a walk through Carnival Room where you can view past Carnival Costumes and groove to island soca tunes. The Rum tasting was more than I could imagine. There were about 20 different Rums to taste. It was great! After the tasting you are able to purchase your favorite Rums and souvenirs. Miguel waited on property for us to complete the tour. On the way back to the resort he offered us Piton Beer to help us cool off. The weather was getting hotter and we were hot from all the Rum. The beer was refreshing…and needed. If I ever go back to St. Lucia I would do this tour again! It was so much fun. You learn a lot and get to drink all before noon!
Thank you for taking the time to leave this excellent review! We are glad our team delivered a truly amazing experience for you. Wishing you all the best and feel free to get back in touch if you do visit St. Lucia again.
Miguel was wonderful and the distillery was nice. They allowed us to do our own pours for the tasting and the stops along the way for photos was wonderful.
Thank you, Amber, for sharing a review about your wonderful experience with our guide Miguel.
Good way to spend a couple hours and learn about the rum history of St. Lucia. I suggest you go directly yourself and not book through a tour. Price is very reasonable when you just pay for access at the factory.
Thank you!
Our driver Roland made our day so worth it!! He was friendly, polite, and has quite a sense of humor! Thanks Roland for making it such a fun excursion!!!
Thank you for sharing your positive experience! We're happy that you had a good time!
The tour itself was quite good, the opportunity to try so many different rums was great, and our tour guide/driver Ed was terrific. He was friendly and knowledgeable and made the entire trip enjoyable.
Great review! thanks!
Excellent tour learned a great deal about rum! Our tour guide was excellent and we had a nice stop in beautiful Marigot Bay afterwards.
Thank you for taking the time out to share feedback about your experience with our team!! :)
The tour of the distillery was short; yet, informative. First, you watch a video on the history and production of rum on the island. There is plenty of time to ask questions. At the end of the tour, you are able to taste the products of the distillery. In addition to appreciating the rum, you are then able to make educated decisions on the bottles you wish to purchase. Another plus is that the prices at the distillery are quite low and much lower than at the resorts.
Thank you for sharing the experience you had with the FRAM Tours team in Saint Lucia. It was an absolute delight to have you both with us! I thank you for the business and I wish you all the best!!
We went on the rum distillery tour and was taken there by Alen from Tram tours - although the rum your was great, what made it specially was Alen and his knowledge of the island and his friendly attitude. When we got in the car we were given and amazing gift bag with local treats including hot sauce, curry powder, etc. And on the way back Alen offered to stop and a road side food vendor where we had the most amazing pork, salad and mash mix. We’ve been on the island for 10 days and done a number of tours with different companies and Fran Tour have definitely been the best. Could recommend enough and that you Alen!
We at FRAM Tours are happy to be part of your St. Lucian holiday trip. It was really a pleasure having you. Thank you for taking the time out to leave this amazing review and sharing your experience with other travelers.
We had a fun and educational tour of the distillery with plenty of rum tasting afterwards! The distillery makes quite a few different types of rum so there is sure to be something for everyone.
Thank you Karen for sharing your experience with other travelers! I must also thank you for giving us the opportunity to provide your excursion! :)
