    Couldn't be better tour.
    We took the private tour of Saint Lucia. Our driver and guide was Richard, who made the day full of fun and excitement. The roads are not the best and the traffic can be awful, but with Richards excellent knowledge and driving, we fitted in everything.

    Transport and sightseeing in St Lucia
    We used the company for our airport transfers and they were prompt, informative and friendly. So, for a day out to Sulphur Springs and the Waterfalls, we contacted them to see how much they would charge us. It was much cheaper than the hotel would have been and we asked for Jason, who had brought us from the airport. He was excellent, knowledgeable and really helpful - plus he played Dolly Parton for us, what more can you ask for.

    We used St Lu for transfers to and from Sandals Regency. Easy booking online. Very easy to communicate with via email. We also did a tour during the week. Jason was our driver. It was all great. He was great. Highly recommend.

    Disappointed & Let down
    Booked and paid for a 2 way shuttle from the airport to our hotel and the return journey. We were collected but they failed to collect us, instead picking up (and charging) another couple. Our reception managed to get us another ride to the airport an hour later. St Lu Taxis & Tours promised to reimburse me, even went to the trouble of asking for my bank details, but after this have completely ignored me. So be warned DO NOT BOOK AND PAY IN ADVANCE as there’s a good chance they may not turn up.

    Great tour of the island- highly recommended.
    We enjoyed a really good day tour of the island seeing stunning views, stopping at lots of places of interest and local stalls for food. Our driver/guide was brilliant. He was very knowledgeable, interesting, patient and made our day really worthwhile.

    Great tour in St. Lucia
    Jason picked us up at the cruise terminal and asked what we wanted to see. We suggested the Pitons and Pigeon Island National Park. With these venues in opposite directions we asked for his opinion. He suggested the Pitons and Soufriere, which was fine with us, and said if we had time he would try to take us to Pigeon Island. He knew all the spots to stop for good photo ops. The roads in St. Lucia are steep with lots of switch backs. Jason was an excellent driver and we felt very safe in his hands. At every stop Jason got out of the van to assist us and provide information on where we were stopping as well as letting us know that we had no obligation to buy anything. He also volunteered to take pictures of us at every stop. Jason is relatively new as a tour guide, but was very knowledgeable and able to answer most of our questions as well as being very personable. I strongly recommend St. Lu Taxis and Tours and Jason as a tour guide.

    Day tour
    Day tour with Nixon, who took us exactly where we wanted to go, including, apparently, his first ever visit down into Marigot Bay proper rather than the view from above. Nixon was not over intrusive but answered all the questions we asked. However, chaps, drop the seemingly mandatory stop at the rip off banana sauce vendor's stall because this reflects badly on you.

    Awesome Trip - Ask for Jason
    Jason is very knowledgable about the Island. This was the best driver that we expirienced while in St Lucia! He is very personable which automatically puts you in a good mood. When I come back to the island (hopefully one day soon!) I will make sure to get Jason's number so I can use him as transportation for Private Tours. I have a feeling Jason is bound to do great things!

    Beware of bad people in St. Lucia!
    Off the ship Anthem of the Seas, I and my family took a taxi to Rodney Bay Beach. I enquired about fishing, and a man referred me to Lincoln. We negotiated $250 for a few hours and a ride back to the ship. A man named Noah showed up about 45 minutes later with a small boat and small motor (blue fabric top). He took me around the bay for about 30 minutes, then claimed he had to pick a few ladies up and shuttle them to pigeon island. He dropped me at the beach and did not return, thus scamming me out of a fishing trip. And, I had to pay a taxi to get me back to the ship. Beware of scammers at Rodney Bay Beach. Why would any tourist want to visit St. Lucia?

    If you like being charged $130 for trip you can't go on - definitely book!
    I booked this tour, then called when I saw the trail was closed - they told me to cancel as it was indeed closed, so I did, then they disputed the cancellation when I cancelled the charge on my card - they had to go out of their way to dispute the charge - really unimpressive - more so since they knew the trail was closed yet kept the booking options open, and then literally told me to cancel, and then disputed me not paying for it. So I had to pay for the trip even though we could not go. Book through your hotel, it's cheaper, and you'll actually be able to go. - avoid this company.

    Private driver/tour for less than the price of the crowded cruise excursion!
    Picked St Lu from a Trip Advisor review and it was a great decision! Kevon met us outside the port exit gate and the only instructions we gave him: “we think we might like the mudbath, waterfalls, and beach time.” And he took over and made the order, picked the spots, and even took us ti a private beach where we had lunch at the resort restaurant. Kevon was a great driver on the twisting, hilly roads and super polite. We loved spending the day w him. We never book private car services/private tours because they seem pricey and unnecessary. But St Lu was cheaper than the cruise excursion, no crowds or big bus, clean air conditioned ride, Worth every penny to do it on our schedule and unhurried. Cooler of beverages he packed for us was a bonus! Highly recommend!

    Almost missed my flight
    I have to say that the drivers were super kind. Both drivers. On our way to the hotel it was great, but on the way back to the airport the driver arrived late. I had called the day before as my flight was leaving at 12:42 pm and they had scheduled a pick up at 9:30 am, and the drive to the airport from the hotel was about 1:26 minutes, hence I called and asked them to be at the hotel at 9:00. The gentleman told me that he was going to notify the driver, but then the driver showed up almost at 10am. We arrived late. By the time we got there, there was a huge line and they had already closed checking ins. The Jetblue member was reasonable enough to open it for us. But we could not buy anything for anyone at the airport. It was really stressful. Hence, I can not give 5 stars. Missing a flight is too much, and they should know that people need to be at an airport 2 hours before.

    Excellent service
    We used the guys a few times for local trips to the supermarket from our villa on the Cap Estate. They were always punctual. Booking was easy and the communication was great. Cars were excellent and fully air conditioned. Drivers were polite, friendly and offered local knowledge on places to go and island history. The trip back to the airport was great and provided even more island history and some great views which we would not have seen if we’d gone via the more boring main road. Excellent service and would highly recommend to other visitors

    Adventure Day!
    Richard picked up our Party of 12 at our Villa in a nice, air-conditioned van. He provided history on the Island and all the places that we went that day - Mud Baths, Botanical Gardens, Waterfall, Lunch, & a Rum Tasting. Never felt rushed at any stop. He took pictures of us -- he took pictures with us! He brought a cooler for refreshments. Overall, it was a great day & thanks to King Richard for taking great care of us!

I booked a tour with this merchant in February 2021 for July of this year as I was supposed to be on a cruise. They were immediately responsive, very helpful, and required full payment. The cruise was cancelled in March and I have emailed and tried to contact this merchant for a full refund, per their cancellation policy. There has been no response, none - and, I have emailed at least 10 times to both email addresses and sent messages through their website. NO response, NO refund, nothing - not a single response or email or any acknowledgment that I am trying to contact them.

People please do not confuse companies names when they are similar. All booking made through us has it's cancelation where you do cancel on your own without having to contact the company. All persons who have canceled has received their refund automatically without an issue and if not there is other avenues to get your refund once you can prove your booking and prove you could not travel. Our cancelation policy is very generous where you have up to 24 hours before your tour to cancel. We also do consider when persons can not travel during this pandemic time in approving their refund. Especially as for persons who have bookings for February 2021 we have improve our booking platform where persons can book automatically and cancel automatically without contacting the company so not receiving a refund is impossible in using this new system we have which is bokun which is also used by Viator / tripadvisor. There are so many avenues in other to receive their refund. Unfortunately we can not confirm if this person booked with us due to their identity is not revealed by tripadvisor and I can assure that all refund, rebooking and cancellation was do properly.

We used St. Lu Taxi and Tours in February 2020. We made plans for a private taxi tour before docking in Castries. There are many operators to choose from (before and when you dock) but we were very happy with our choice, as our driver John was an excellent guide and driver. John was professional (waiting for us at the port and a smooth driver on the windy roads) and always asked if we were comfortable inside the vehicle. He was the perfect balance of sharing personal/local life with island knowledge. St. Lucia is a lovely visit and John added to the great island vibes.

We had a great time with Neil! He was very accommodating and made sure we got to go to every site we wanted to see and allowed us to take our time and enjoy it. Not only did he take us to where we requested to go but he showed us little stops on the way that had products from the locals that we could sample. It was a very fun and enjoyable time.

We used St. Lu Taxi and tours for our group of six on February 10/2020. I had reached out to them via email a couple of months before and requested a quote to have a driver and van to ourselves while on a port stop/cruise. I had requested an island "sampler tour" and our driver Val did not disappoint. We enjoyed our drive and stops as we headed south and had a rum and sauce tasting along the way to the volcano and Soufriere. We stopped at some scenic look offs to see the Pitons and some other sights. Our intial plan to spend some time at Hummingbird beach was scrapped to be able to have time to head back north and see Rodney Bay and Pigeon Island which we enjoyed. I had also wanted to see how much the island had changed since I had visited in 2005. Overall we had a fantastic day with Valentine from St. Lu Taxi and tours and I would highly recommend them for your island tour and transportation needs !!

The Itinerary was completely up to us but the company itself is happy to take you to other places if you wish! Richard was our driver and he was magnificent - he clearly knew his stuff, speaking in detail about the history and culture of St Lucia and surrounding islands right through to food and geography/science of the land. He was willing to take us to his favourite viewpoints and we took many excellent shots of the Pitons, Marigot Bay and Roseau valley amongst others. He also took many photos of us and made our day incredibly special. He had many options for us for if we wanted traditional food and he took us to some lovely little boutique shops/stalls with food tasting and filled our souvenir shopping needs! We went on the Tet Paul Nature Trail which was excellent for photos without the tiring hike and Diamond Falls Botanical Gardens which were pleasantly quiet and filled with all kinds of flora and fauna including a picturesque waterfall for more holiday snaps! No pushiness, lots of laughs and plenty of information coupled with safe driving - what more could we ask for? Thank you!!

Our driver, Manny, picked us up on time. We hopped in his van and away we went. We did not have a set itinerary so we pretty much left it up to him to show us the sites. It worked out pretty well except that the weather was not very co-operative. Manny was very informative about the local history and the sites we saw.The best way to approach this type of tour is to have your own itinerary. Manny was more than willing to take us to see anything we wanted to, most of all helping us avoid tourist traps. I would highly recommend this tour but as I said, know what you want to see before you go. It was well worth it. One thing to remember, bring money for admissions and tips.

This is what our private tour is all about asking our clients what their main interest are then we will pu up a whole itinerary for your tour but on the other hand we get clients who do not know what they want to do and even then we are all equipped to put up a whole itinerary for them. We are very thankful for your recommendation. We do welcome you as a new member of our traveling family and do look forward in continuing serving you and many more in the near future. Thank You!!!

We requested the same driver that picked us up from the airport at St Lucia Taxi and Tours. The driver John was very courteous and knowledgable of the area. We went with John to the Plantation, the water falls and sulphur springs. John stopped any where we requested and also made suggestions e.g. at the road side a fellow was showing a python but we passed on that.

Our favourite was the Plantation. The coconut candy is delicious. The swimming area at the water falls is small, wear water shoes. My daughter enjoyed it. The sulphur springs was interesting, take old clothes/bathing suit as the sulphur smell stays in the clothes, we thru our clothes out and went prepared to do that. We had bought some shorts and tshirts for that reason after we found out that we shouldnt wear our good bathing suits.

Getting back to St. Lucia Taxi and Tours l would highly recommend them. l felt completely safe with my 12 yr old.

The cost for us two for the day was 155 US, we got a discount since we booked the airport transfer both ways. Email them as they are very efficient to respond.

Our driver Many was respectful and gentle. He tried to please us as much as he could. He was a great driver. However he is no guide and he was not able to respond to some questions like how big is the island!.
The van was in top shape.
The arranged lunch ended up being a take out... not what we expected. The fare did not include tickets, or lunch. We were a group of 7 and ended up paying over 850 for the ride plus aprox $100 for fees and the take out lunch.... way too expensive.

Hi we are sorry for the way you felt about the tour. The lunch is what we call a local experience where we have the option to eat there or to go with especially a take away for clients who are on a cruise ship due to limited time you ship has on Island and at most times you still have things to do before you get back to your cruise ship depending how the tour was done. Also lunch was being a takeaway because of all the extra time that was spent at the different places like the volcano, waterfall and especially the beach and the driver/guide was requesting to leave and everyone spent extra time at the different that you got to the lunch place at about 3:30PM. Your boarding time at the cruise ship was 4:30PM and you were like 45 min away to the cruise ship from the lunch place without traffic and you had traffic to deal with. In terms of the entrance fees and lunch it is clearly stated that it is not include in the tour fees that is extra expense. This is one out of every 25 4 and 5 star review we received.

Excellent service, attentive to people in wheelchairs. They offer a good 3,5 + h tour of the island with the possibility to view the Pitons, enter the volcano crater (plan an additional 9$ US, per person) with a very knowledgeable driver who cares for his customers. We did a private tour and were able to stop everywhere we wanted for pictures. We also stopped to purchase a cassava bread (worth the try!)

Valentine, our driver was extremely knowledgeable. A very pleasant man that brought us to great locations on the island to optimize the time we had. He gave us a background history of the island and the spots we stopped at. We asked that he take us to a local restaurant away from the tourist spots to get the true flavor of the island.
He hit a home run! This is a trip no one would want to miss. The waterfalls, sulfur bath and Pitons were a true highlight.
Thank you Valentine!!
