St. Lucia Food and Rum Tour - Prove a autêntica comida e cultura de St. Lucian

Delvin was great. The rum tour and food were both great. We also enjoyed stopping at the farm to try many of the local fruits. Delvin also explained the history and culture of the island while we were driving between the various stops on the tour. I highly recommend this tour.

Delvin our guide was amazing!! He was very kind and easy going, knowledgeable of the island and ensured everyone was comfortable during the tour. The lunch provided at his mom’s house was a highlight of our trip and one of our best meals on the island! We got to try a diverse palate of Lucian food, all of which was delicious! The cost is defiantly worth it for the full day experience! Highly recommend our guide and this tour if you’re wanting an authentic experience! 10/10!!

Best tour of the holiday by far. Don't let the price hold you back: it is totally worth it. Chris picked us up at 8am to drive for over an hour to the first stop up north, then we gradually made our way back south to our resort. On the way up north Chris explained a lot about the island, its history and the culture. Every stop was great: local breakfast was at a place tourists can't find (and it was super tasty), the rum distillery tour and tasting was awesome. Chris was very patient when we tasted up to 20 rums before deciding which one to buy. Think that was it? Oh no, then it was off to an infused rum tasting, done by locals. Just a stand next to the road, rum in what seemed like plastic bottles. Sounds bad? He'll no, the flavors were awesome. The people super friendly and very keen in telling you all about their products. Rum infused with fruits you've never heard of, a variety of nuts, plants, but especially: coffee and cocoa. Oh boy this was good. "Take your time, ready when you are: Chris said patiently. Did I mention already he's also a very skilled driver? Also, as I am a beer enthusiast, I asked if it was possible to include the local brewery. Now this was a quest even for him but the man got it figured out after making some phone calls throughout the day and eventually we got the directions. After the lunch stop at a house of a local (we literally just sat in their garden, not a restaurant or anything, just at people's home) where we had a wonderful meal (and we were stuffed) it was straight over to Tony's farm. Tony is a farmer, possibly in his late 60s I'd say, but he showed his skills. Immediately after us arriving he started whacking a coconut with his machete which we could then drink out of and after that eat the gelly (at first glance I was like 'really?' but it tastes good, trust me). Then the comparison with a dried one. Very interesting! Then all kinds of local fruit and to top it off a crash course in how to roast cashew nuts (apparently without roasting the oil in the nuts is toxic!) harvested fresh from the plant. Finally our last stop was the one we asked for specifically so they added this especially for us: the craft brewery, exceptionally well hidden in the hills (even Chris had to inquire and that says something) where we could try 3 of their craft beers and had a great chat with Martin and one of the brewers (slapping myself for not remembering the guys name). This was our final stop. We had a blast. Chris was the perfect guide: friendly, knowledgeable, patient and funny. If you love to try new things and local food this tour is absolutely worth it. Fantastic.

Great tour. These are the tours I enjoy doing when I travel: culture, food, sightseeing etc. and this tour embodied that

A great tour if you are interested in learning more about the island culture and its food history. Take you beyond the typical tourist sites where you taste the local foods, homemade rums, roast cashews and drink coconut water from coconuts straight from the trees!

This was the best tour we did while in St Lucia! We had the most authentic St Lucian food - from a traditional breakfast to a range of different fruits (half I've never had before) and finally the most delicious salted fish curry I've ever had courtesy of Delvin's mum - hands down the best meal we had! Authentic and fresh rum punch (again one of the best I've had!). We also had a great rum tour (seeing the process in a working distillery) with the opportunity to taste 22 different rums! Delvin also gave us loads of information/ interesting facts about the island which was great to hear. Great communication with Delvin about changing the date and moving the pick up time back. Overall, I'd highly recommend this tour as a must do if you want to experience real St Lucian/Creole food!

We did the food and rum tour with Delvin and cannot recommend it highly enough!! He is a font of knowledge about St Lucia’s history, culture, and of course, food scene. It was a nice blend of conversation while also having time to enjoy some experiences alone. The St. Lucian breakfast was delicious with an amazing view; the rum distillery tour was awesome; tasting fresh tropical fruits at Tony’s farm was lovely, and it was amazing to enjoy a home-cooked lunch at his mom’s house—such a personal way to get a peek into the wonderful island culture of St. Lucia! Be careful with the final rum tasting at Horizon, because while delicious, those samples pack a punch! (But that didn’t stop us from bringing 3 unique bottles home!) 😁

It was wonderful! We loved all of the local things we tried and saw!

Great tour, a definite must for anyone wanting to try authentic stuff lucian food!! Delvin was a great host/guide and even stopped to get my cousin a red bull. We had breakfast (bakes) + 2 rum stops + sauce tasting (try banana ketchup) + fruit tasting at Tony's farm (cocoa, sugarcane, soursop, mangos & more) + lunch (so good I had 2 servings)

Delvin is a lovely guy and taught us a lot about the culture of St.Lucia. The Rum distillery was great and the different foods we got to try were very interesting and different from anything we have ever had before.
