Real St. Lucia Tours and your guidance were paramount in ensuring our discovery of the island was so enjoyable. Your reply to my request for quote for transfer from airport to hotel was extremely quick and also the addition of your available tours very useful. Marshall met us at Hewannora International Airport and drove us to our hotel in Rodney Bay. Perfect driver explaining the route we would be taking and during a relaxing drive many aspects of St.Lucia. The two tours we took with you were also perfect. Randall colected us from our hotel for the Island Tour. Again a relaxing drive (especially bearing in mind the rather tortuous road ) along the West side of the Island taking us to the many attractions around Soufriere's. We were able to take our first view of Gros Piton which was going to be our trip with you later in the week - daunting !!!!! We included the Volcano highlight and the Tet Paul Trail plus the Morn Coumarin Estate with its chocolate history - so much learned in the time but my highlight was the snorkeling at Anse Chastenet. A goldmine of fish and coral all close to the shore. Loretta collected us for the drive South again to the 'St. Lucia challenge' the hike up Gros Piton. Hot day and high spirits. Unfortunately not enough 'puff'. This was a really steep clip or more a strenuous climb over the rocky 'pathway' which was never ending. We made it half way but that was our limit - disappointing but recognizing our own limits. Larry (sorry may be wrong name ??) our guide and Loretta were marvelously understanding. A good climb back followed by a trip to the Botanical Gardens and Diamond Waterfall. Back again to hotel. Our departure was a return to the airport again with Marshall driving and taking all care. We could not have had better drivers and guides - all knowledgeable and super sense of humour. Jan's thanks so much for organising the collections and tours and please again thank your staff. Best regards for the future. Terry & Ann Irwin "Don't recommend anyone take out taxi's from the hotel as they overcharge on an exorbitant scale."4/18/2016
My family & I traveled yo St Lucia for the Easter break. Don't recommend anyone take out taxi's from the hotel as they overcharge on an exorbitant scale. I found the service from this guy polite, remarkably efficient through simple email exchange. No upfront fees. Will recommend the firm to friends who might travel on future vacations. Regards, Samir I came across this company when trawling through sites to book a transfer from the airport to our hotel. The transfer went very smoothly and was much cheaper than our travel agent had quoted. We decided to book a island expo tour and were not disappointed Our guide was punctual professional and very knowledgeable about the island -we enjoyed the cassava bread, a visit to the banana plantation, the Tet Paul trail, the volcano's and visits to a waterfall with pools where we enjoyed a refreshing dip. Our guide was a brilliant driver along very hairy roads at times in the pouring rain -he knew all the places for a good photo stop and was happy for us to stop at any time. We were very impressed with the company and the opportunity to find out more about the beautiful island of St. Lucia. Sue and Peter "Tried our hardest to conquer Gros Pitan but ran out of puff. It was however still a wonderful day."4/17/2016
Hi Elma & Janus We had a superb day with Loretta on Friday. Tried our hardest to conquer Gros Pitan but ran out of puff. It was however still a wonderful day. Never seen so many rocks in our life especially located in the vertical plain. She was a wonderful driver and guide for the day which as you can tell we enjoyed very much. The sad news is that we are running out of holiday days but have had an excellent holiday. Lots of exercise but also relaxation in the sun. Thanks to you for all your guidance, help and assistance. Just the journey back to the airport tomorrow. Terry & Ann Hi Elma We very much enjoyed our excursion and our guide was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Upon meeting us Hijenus (apologies if the spelling is incorrect!) asked what we wanted to achieve out of the day, as we had a lot we wanted to fit in we decided to skip lunch as we preferred to see more of the island rather than waste time eating! This was great for us and no trouble to him at all. He was extremely helpful in taking pictures for us at the sulphur springs and mud baths something that would have been impossible to have done on our own so a real bonus. He also made sure we were back at our ship in good time so no panicking about missing the sailing. I would have no hesitation in recommending your services to anyone traveling to St. Lucia in the future and looking for a tour. Thanks for a memorable day.

Hello Janus, We had an exquisite time in st Lucia! One of my favorite excursions. I love your island and Hyginus was amazing. I will never hesitate to refer him to my friends and hope to have him see more of the island during another time. My only complaint is I wish I could have your company on every excursion to other islands. You have definitely raise the bar. I couldn't ask for a better time. I plan on writing a rave review on trip advisor about my experience in more detail. Please give my regards to Hyginus. He was the best! Chris Hi Elma and Janus I wanted to write to you in any case to let you know how impressed we were with your services whilst we were in St Lucia. The airport transfers were punctual, efficient and the drivers very informative (my husband does this in the UK - so he is a good judge!). Our private one-day tour was a huge success - a great way to see some of the sights and our driver (Delvyn [not sure about spelling]) was able to answer any question we asked about the island and its history and also was very open about his life in St Lucia - all in all it was a fantastic day and we enjoyed it very much. I chose your company from similar web reviews and have no regrets whatsoever. It's just a shame we didn't have a bit longer to enjoy your lovely island! Kind regards Lynda Janus and Elma- We can not thank you both for arranging an incredible adventure! We were welcomed (with open arms) very early Monday morning by Richard! What a love!!! He was so amazing and honest and it felt like we spent the day with a long lost cousin! He is the absolute best guy and guide!!!! You did us right! We hiked, with Corinne and Richard and with 30pound packs over the course of the morning to take us to the summit for us to renew our wedding vows to each other! Complete with sore muscles, raj and a change into a dress and tuxedo (with hiking shoes) it made for the most memorable day of our lives! I hope Richard will share our photos with you. If not, here is one for the records!! Cheers and thank you!! Daphne Seymour Hi Janus, We had a wonderful experience with Real St. Lucia tours! Pierre arrived on time and was very knowledgeable, professional and accommodating. We were able to see so much of the island during our tour, and everyone in the group was extremely satisfied with the experience again. We'd do it again and will definitely recommend the services to others! We recommended it to a few parties at the resort as well. Thank you again for a wonderful experience! Pierre was amazing and we feel so fortunate to have been paired with such a great guide for the day! Thank you, Erin |
