This was our adventure pick from MSC and it didn’t disappoint. The combination of fast ziplines and walking across the jungle bridges was exciting but never scary. Hannah was great at keeping everything organized and smooth. We were back with time to relax before sailing.
Visiting St. Lucia on Carnival, we booked the Rainforest Adventure Canopy Zip Line on a whim and ended up loving it. The lush green jungle, the long ziplines, and the suspension bridges between platforms made it feel like a real rainforest experience. Olivia was friendly and made everything easy, even for first-timers
Rainforest High - We chose this canopy zip line while sailing with Royal Caribbean and had no idea how beautiful it would be. Gliding through the treetops with nothing but rainforest below was unforgettable. Ethan kept the energy fun and made sure everyone felt safe the whole time. One of the best things we did in St. Lucia.
So Glad We Did This": Cruising on Princess, we wanted something active instead of just the beach, and the Rainforest Adventure Canopy Zip Line was perfect. The rainforest setting was beautiful and every line was a rush. Noah was patient with nervous riders and made it fun for everyone. Easily the highlight of our St. Lucia stop.
Above the Trees. We did the St. Lucia Rainforest Adventure Canopy Zip Line from Norwegian Cruise Line and it was incredible. Walking through the rainforest to reach each platform already felt like part of the adventure, and then flying through the trees was just amazing. Liam helped everyone feel relaxed before each zip, which made it even more fun. We still had time to enjoy the port after.
Took my teens on this tour and they can’t stop talking about it. Great balance of adventure and beautiful nature. Definitely one of the top things to do in St. Lucia.
Hi Charlene, We’re thrilled to hear you and your teens had such an amazing time with us in St. Lucia during your cruise on the Norwegian Escape!

Thank you for choosing us to spend your day in the beautiful Caribbean. We’d love for you to share your stories and tag us on Instagram or Facebook at @NextExperienceTravel so other travelers can get inspired too! Hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon! Warm regards, The Caribbean Shore Excursions Team
Do not book this excursion! We booked via the cruise line. The operator put us in a janky taxi and did not even ride with us. Once we got there, we learned that there were at least six groups ahead of us that still had not gone out on the lines. We immediately got a cab back to the port. The driver said this company takes the money from their contract and does not pay their employees so they either quit or do not show up causing a poor and unsafe experience for travelers! Avoid!
Hi Gregory, Thank you for sharing your experience and for visiting beautiful St. Lucia during your Caribbean vacation. We’re truly sorry to hear about your disappointment; however, we’d like to clarify that your booking was not made directly with us as a local tour operator, nor through our trusted partner Viator. As you mentioned in your review, your reservation was made through your cruise line, which works with separate providers. Our guests are transported in clearly marked vans or buses operated by our staff—we do not use taxis—and our team is always present to provide guidance and ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. This review has been posted on the wrong business listing. Unfortunately, it affects our reputation and may mislead future guests who are considering booking with us. We take great pride in offering safe, high-quality, and well-organized adventures in St. Lucia, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you properly in the future for the real rainforest experience. Warm regards, The Caribbean Shore Excursions Team
