Fantastic, we had the best time, learned a lot about the island and had an excursion that was exactly what we were looking for! Highly recommend!

We had a great time! Our driver was knowledgeable and we got to see the main highlights. The only downside was how twisty the roads are - make sure you take motion sickness tablets if you need them.

Lincoln was very accommodating to our request for a more historical tour of the Island. Very enjoyable. Highly recommend.

We had a WONDERFUL tour with St Lu Taxi & Tours. It was a truly private tour with Tennyson - just me and the hubby. My husband was on crutches and Tennyson was so amazing taking us to places that showed us the beauty of St Lucia but accessible to my husband. We couldn't do the zip-lining, hiking, mud baths, etc that everyone always does but we did visit the Pitons, were able to view the mud baths, had the most amazing drive, and WONDERFUL lunch at a local restaurant on the beach looking at the Pitons. Not only did he open my door every time, he rushed around to the back of the van to get my husband's crutches and helped him out of the van. I know it doesn't sound like much but coming from the person who usually deals with the crutches and making sure my husband's OK, this meant a lot. I was able to enjoy the tour while knowing my husband was well taken care of. I would HIGHLY recommend St Lu Taxi & Tours and definitely request Tennyson.
