Our guide and driver were very knowledgeable and made the excursion fun. We were from a resort on the south side of the island so we had to pay and find our own way to a meeting spot at Messy Market to meet the excursion. If you get motion sickness the drive can be difficult but the guide and driver did their best to accommodate this.
It was an amazing experience thanks to Crystal, Caroum, and Branch! Definitely a must-do while in St. Lucia!

The tour was mesmerizing every step of the way. The rainforest felt vibrant while the mud bath provided tranquility. Our tour guide, Lulu, made sure we felt part of St. Lucia by sharing the rich history of each stop of our tour. We would have loved a little bit more time in the mud bath, but we overall we had an amazing experience that far exceeded the cost of the tour and will stay with us for years to come. Thank you lulu for such a beautiful tour!!!

This was an amazing experience all around. Our guide LuLu was so friendly and easy to talk to, we got to share stories of our home life and other travels we have had. There could not have been a better person to talk and share with during our ride through Saint Lucia. We loved what we got for the price we paid. A hike through the rainforest with lots of animals and plants to admire, a dip in the mud water coming off of the volcano, and a fantastic lunch in a small town outside of the volcano location. It was an unreal experience and it was all in 5 hours! The crowds at each spot we stopped were not overbearing by any means. My wife and I think this is a perfect trip for couples on a honeymoon or anniversary celebration. Learning about the local life while also getting to see the atmospheres is something we will never forget. Thank you so much LuLu and thank you to our driver I believe his name was Ian. Everything was even better than we expected. 100/10!!
