Incredible, beautiful island tour! - This was an incredible experience. Before we even met, our guide Thompson contacted me to confirm our arrival. The port at Castries was rather confusing, but he stayed on top of our communications and made things so much easier that they otherwise would have been. As the cruising season had just begun my husband and I were his only passengers. He customized the experience based on our discussions about what we would like to see and do. We went to a local rum distillery, the botanical gardens, viewed the Pitons from a distance and then drove into the volcano to see the sulfur pits. He even took us to run a few personal errands. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see St Lucia up close and personal. You'll be extremely fortunate if Thompson is your guide.

Pitons - Viator is reliable and their tour guides are excellent. Our driver/guide was knowledgeable and very pleasant.

Our driver/guide, Dovin,... - Our driver/guide, Dovin, is very personable, knowledgeable, and accommodating.
Dovin is an excellent driver. I don’t believe it is possible to have an enjoyable day sightseeing if one had to drive oneself from Castries to Soufriere. The roads are very winding and steep; driving on the west side of Saint Lucia is not for the faint of heart.
My spouse and I were the only passengers on the Toyota minivan so we were very comfortable.
Our main objective was to see the Pitons (can’t go to Saint Lucia and not see the Pitons!), and they are truly majestic. The rest of the days we spent taking in various sights to and from the Pitons although we did enjoy a longer stop at the botanical gardens.

Well recommended with excellent driver. - Exactly as described. Our driver Raphael was on time, very polite and extremely informative engaging on various subjects about St Lucia and elsewhere. His driving was excellent - none of the wild knuckle drives we’ve sometimes had.

Glorious sites, fun times with a super guide and friendly people. - Truly great trip. Views of the Pitons and surrounding area are indescribable. One of the most beautiful sites on earth. The botanical gardens on the tour are world class. Diamond falls in the gardens is also extremely beautiful. Tour guide, Raphael, was excellent; knowledgeable, friendly; flexible to those on tour in adjusting to things the group wanted to spend most time on.

A good way to discover the beauty of St Lucia - Visiting the island by car is certainly a bit of a trying experience because the roads are winding and sometimes chaotic but you can discover the surprising landscapes of St Lucia with a very bushy forest and very different plant and animal varieties from Europe. Our guide Adrien knew how to introduce us to vegetative species and take us to a very typical restaurant in La Soufrière (excellent fish dishes). Only one downside ... the fact of discovering sometimes exorbitant rates from the sites of La Soufrière ... when time was very limited, and the animation itself not very exceptional. For example the Solfatare of Naples is more spectacular and requires a visit 10 times longer....

The Pitons and the Volcano! - A very informative and interesting experience. It’s an amazing island. Our driver was not courteous and knowledgeable!

The meeting place on the... - The meeting place on the app was incorrect on our phone. Received an email where to meet hours after our meeting time. Another guide helped us to find ours. Our “guide” was only our driver. He didn’t speak to us about anything, although he was a safe driver (thankfully). After a while, the whole group decided to ask him to just take us back to the ship. Very disappointing

Misleading Tour with Zero Effort - I was really disappointed with this trip in St. Lucia. The driver didn’t say a word the whole time, so it wasn’t a tour at all. We had no idea what we were seeing along the route because he didn’t explain anything, and for all we know, the listed itinerary on Viator could’ve been completely made up.
We didn’t get offered the included drinks until the journey back, and the vehicle was old and totally unsuitable for the rough roads. To make things worse, the air conditioning vent fell off the roof and hit my hand.
Overall, a really poor experience. Definitely wouldn’t recommend.
Let me know if there’s anything else to tweak!
