Some frequently Received St. Lucia Shore Excursion inquiries below!

We will be in St. Lucia for 4 days from 26-29 Aug and we are looking for the best tours at the best prices. Please send me some information as we would indeed like to book with you.

We will be visiting St. Lucia on our honeymoon during a Caribbean cruise and would like pricing on a REAL St. Lucia tour. We would like to see the pitons, a waterfall would be great, I LOVE tropical fruit and it would be great to experience some traditional foods. We don't mind being with others as we find it fun to chat with people from other places so it doesn't need to be a private tour. I also would prefer NOT to be in a vehicle the majority of the day. If you could let me know if you have something that seems to fit this description and give me a price that would be great. Thank you so much and I cannot wait to hear from you.

I am hoping to find a tour that includes both a tour of the pitons on the water with maybe some snorkeling and a tour of the volcanoes with the mud bath and the springs in the same tour. Is there such a tour? How much does it cost? Does it include lunch or drinks? And does the company provide transportation to and from the cruise ship?

We were wondering what the cost is of a private tour? Also, does the Island Expo go to Diamond Botanical Gardens, and is there beach time on the Island Expo? Do you require payment in full upon reservation or at time of tour? What forms of payment do you accept? Thank you!

WE ARE COMMING ON A CRUISE JANUARY 9TH AND WHAT TO DO A COMPLETE TOUR OF THE ISLAND AND MAJOR ATTRACTIONS INCLUDING VOLCANO, BEACH, MORME FORTUNE, RODNEY BAY AND THE PITON HOW MUCH IS IT PER PERSON AND HOW DO I RESRVE A GUDE??? THANKS

I am taking a cruise and will be in St. Lucia on August 18. I was looking to take a tour which includes both the volcano (and hot springs) and the Pitons.
I am in port at 8 and leave at 5. Can you please advise if there is a good tour you can recommend that would experience both of these sites?
If that isn't possible, I am also interested in either the gros piton hike or the rainforest tour with ziplines.
I would appreciate your advice and costing for these options.

I am inquiring as to the cost and time of the Piton Hike. Also, is it possible to do this the same day with the volcano as well?
Please tell me cost, times. Thank you,

Wake up inspired!

2011-08-09T13:46:12Z

Every morning I wake up it’s this view from my bedroom window that inspires me to do what I do. Haven’t climbed the great Petit Piton in about 2 months, can’t wait to be back at the summit. Anyway back to my morning coffee!

My Take on Real St Lucia Tours

2011-07-24T12:53:16Z

A visitor touring St Lucia once asked me what it’s like having my face plastered all over the internet. My answer which may have sounded laconic was “I love to make people love me”. And I guess that is something the team at Real St. Lucia tours all aim to accomplish. It’s not simply about taking travelers on trips to St Lucia’s most popular attractions but really showing your ingrained enthusiasm and love for the island.

I have read many reviews about different touring experiences and my best guess on why a visitor may not have a good time really has to do with their guide. My take is this - “a tour of St. Lucia pretty much boils down to the tour guide.”

One of the main reasons our guides have stuck with us over many years is because they have a place within the company, which in reality is a family. A family of people looking to share their knowledge and wisdom about St Lucia with the rest of the world. It is this passion to do more and give more that makes us the island’s leading Adventure Company.

My team and I have encountered all types of personalities from different parts of the word, whether arriving in St Lucia via air or water (cruise ships). It’s easy for them to get injected with our enthusiasm bug. It doesn’t matter whether you’re physically fit or traveling in a wheelchair, you’ll feel alive like everyone else you may be traveling with.

I have to admit, there are mornings I find myself overwhelmed with emails. I’ve realized travelers don’t just inquire about our tours; they pretty much demand that we book them for a particular date. I am honored to have people show this level of trust in a company. And it is this trust I as a person, tour guide, travel enthusiast and businessman seek to instill in the company for years to come.

There is really no big secret about our St Lucia Tour company, much of it boils down to this statement “Treat people the way you’d want to be treated.” So whether you are looking for that perfect St Lucia shore trip or at a hotel looking for your local tour guides to come show you the Real St Lucia, you can count on us to deliver that amazing experience.

“Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.”

2010-12-29T11:54:00Z

Mother Teresa said “If you can’t feed a hundred people, just feed one.” Giving back to the community in which we explore with our visitors is part of our core philosophy.

It is our duty and responsibility as a travel company to contribute in anyway we can, even if that consists of helping one family at a time.

We are fortunate in having our travel family provide aid in our donation efforts to those who were most affected by Hurricane Tomas. April, one of the kindest and most sincere of our travel family made it her duty to bring supplies on her St. Lucia vacation.

These small efforts will bring awareness of the importance of giving back to the villages, particularly the children in impoverished areas. By giving something to a family we make a difference in the hearts and minds of those we interact with on a daily basis, creating an even more welcoming environment for visitors.
