Nice grounds, interesting tour and good ziplining. However there is nothing unique about this experience that will exceed your expectations as there are several plantations and ziplines across the island. The place is very well signposted from the main road, just 5 minutes south from Soufriére. More

Morne Coubaril Estate is a beautiful old plantation with breathtaking views and a variety of flora and fauna. The tour was wonderful, with a guide just for my friend and I. She told us all about the fruit trees, cocoa beans and processing, flowers, plants, St. Lucia history and what life was like in St. Lucia hundreds of years ago.... More

We did the tour, zip lining, and lunch. The tour was great. Very laid back, and we learned a lot. You get to try some of the produce along the way. Our guide was very nice and informative. The zip lining was fun. I was a little taken aback that you have to brake yourself using your gloved hand. The... More

The guide was very informative. We gained insight into how people lived in the times of the sugarcane plantation and how cocoa was processed. The zip lining was fun and professionally operated. I would highly recommend. More

My husband and I had previously stayed in St Lucia for our honeymoon, and were returning 2 years later on a cruise. We had already done the tour of the island via boat ( waterfalls, walk in volcano, sulfur baths) & wanted to try something different. On our previous stay we didn't have time to go zip lining, so this... More

We took a zipline tour at Morne Coubaril recently. It was my second time ziplining. Morne Coubaril was a little tame compared to my first time in Costa Rica. Our hotel's concierge also said that the ziplining facility in Castries is better (also further away if you're in Soufriere). So, that's why I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5.... More

We had a great time zippin' with our 2 guides. We learned how to zip quickly and were guided through a course of 8 lines. The first was the scariest! It was really fun & they also gave us quite a bit of information about the views on each platform. Not just recreation, a bit of education, too! Loved it! More
