Highly recommend this company. Attention to detail and willing to compromise
Wow .. so glad we decided to access Serenity Tours the Dasheen Couples experience. The view from the restaurant was unbelievable. Felt like you were sitting in the middle of the pitons.. which you kindof were. We customized our own tour and chose to start at Howelton Estates. Very nice gift store with custom made Batik items. The view looking down to Castries was spectacular. We then stopped along the way for a view of Marigot Bay. Lots of great pictures at that stop. We also chose to stop at Stonefeild Estates to walk the gardens and see the ancient Petroglyphs. Very serene. The tour included a quick stop at the touristy volcano, waterfalls and mudbath but we chose not to stay and instead went to the little known Piton Falls water mineral baths which we had to ourselves. Fantastic. We also lucked out at the Ladera Resort for lunch at the Dasheen Restaurant where we were practically the only ones and got the front seating with views to die for. Wow what can I say except a experience of a lifetime. This is a must do when in St Lucia.
Response from the operator: Wow! We are absolutely delighted by your detailed and enthusiastic review of the Dasheen Couples Experience with Serenity Vacations & Tours. The entire team joins me in expressing a heartfelt THANK YOU for sharing your unforgettable journey with us and for choosing to explore the wonders of Saint Lucia through this customized tour. Your vivid descriptions of the breathtaking views from Dasheen Restaurant, the serene ambiance at Stonefield Estates, and the unique experience at Piton Falls paint a perfect picture of what we aim to offer – a blend of natural beauty and personalized adventure. We're thrilled that you enjoyed the spectacular sights of Castries from Howelton Estates and captured memorable moments at Marigot Bay. Our goal is to provide an experience that goes beyond the usual tourist spots, allowing you to immerse yourself in the true essence of our island ecosystem. Your appreciation for the less-traveled paths, and your enjoyment of the peaceful lunch at Ladera Resort’s Dasheen Restaurant, reflect the kind of unique and intimate experiences we strive to create. Your kind words inspire us to continue offering personalized and extraordinary tours and experiences. We eagerly look forward to welcoming you back for another incredible adventure in our island paradise. Until then, may your travels be filled with awe and joy. Warm regards, The Serenity Vacations and Tours Family

Highly disappointing
Highly disappointing experience. I booked this excursion for me and my husband for our honeymoon to only be scammed completely. Our tour guide kleeber picked us up asking what we planned to do only to not bring us on any of the 4 promised spots we were supposed to go and only brought us to two locations. We were also promised alcoholic beverages and water bottles that we never got even though there was a cooler in the front seat. Even when asking for a water bottle I was ignored. Instead, he made us purchase water bottles at the restaurant. When complaining I only received half my money back and asked to go on the tour another day when I already spent a whole day on our honeymoon ruined. Time wasted and complete disappointment. This tour guide really ruined our time. We seemed rushed to get out of wherever we went (volcano and waterfall) rushing around and being pointed out some spots in the car, when we were supposed to physically get out of the car to see certain spots as promised in the advertisement. I am so upset we even spent time doing this because it took away from time we should have just paid elsewhere.
Response from the operator: A BIG THANK YOU Alyssa for choosing our services and for your expressions in this review. It is a brut reminder that despite the very best of intentions and efforts, we will have moments of undesired failure. Experiences with Serenity Vacations & Tours MUST be impeccable at all times. In your instance, our guide, though new (but trained), failed to follow established protocol and this has certainly cost both of us dearly. I can assure you that a scam we certainly are not, but the disappointment is well understood. Our profile, mine, and my business are identifiable from every point, and at any time. While we make amends, appropriate refunds and cherish the lessons provided, the desire is always to achieve memorable experiences, on every occasion. We deeply apologize for your disappointment, and moving forward there will always be enhanced processes to mitigate future blunders. We will embrace this as a valuable opportunity to make perfect a premium experience. Please consider this response a hansel and invitation to experience one of our new premium services. It will be my personal treat, and I offer to be your ambassador for the day. Thank you for choosing Saint Lucia and we wish you the absolute best until we shake hands again. Best regards John

An Exemplary Experience!
We did the private tour and used Serenity for our private transfers to Sandals Halcyon Beach. Lance did our transfer to Halcyon upon arrival in Saint Lucia. He was lovely and friendly! He stopped and got us a local snack of bread and cheese which we so appreciated, of course he had Piton beers and water for us as well! He gave us a wonderful welcome to the island. We had Hans for our private tour and our departure transfer. I couldn't tell you enough good things about our experience with Hans. We especially appreciated how much he knew about the local flora and fauna-- it seemed he knew every plant and animal we saw! We had such a wonderful time with him; he was genuinely kind and it's easy to tell how much he loves the island. Saint Lucia couldn't ask for a better ambassador.
Response from the operator: A MASSIVE THANK YOU for this fantastic review! We're delighted to hear that Serenity Vacations & Tours provided an exemplary experience for both your private transfers and island tour. Lance sets the tone for a relaxing vacation right from the start. His friendly demeanor, the refreshing local bread and cheese snack, and the Piton beers and water are all thoughtful touches that truly enhance the arrival experience. Hans sounds like the perfect guide for your private tour! His extensive knowledge of St. Lucia's flora and fauna is impressive, ensuring you didn't miss a single fascinating detail. We especially appreciate how much his passion for the island shines through - he's a true ambassador for St. Lucia! It brings us immense joy to know you had such a wonderful time with both Lance and Hans. Their genuine kindness and love for sharing their island paradise are hallmarks of the Serenity Vacations & Tours experience. On your return visit, consider venturing further off the beaten path with a customized tour designed around your specific interests. We've popularized our Premium Experiences to meet a growing demand for authentic Island experiences and look forward to sharing with you. Until then, may your memories of St. Lucia remain ever vivid! Warm regards, The Serenity Vacations & Tours Team

All Day - Land and Sea
We recently booked the land and sea tour with Serenity Vacation and Tours while in St Lucia on Feb 6th 2020. We promptly met Hans at 8:30am and were quickly whisked away to an air conditioned van...filled with a selection of delicious drinks (the rum punch was amazing). As there were no other guests booked on this trip, it was a private excursion just for myself, husband and son. From beginning to end, this trip was exceptional. I feel like we did EVERYTHING I could have asked for and more: - We started with multiple stops to take advantage of some outstanding views. - We went to a banana plantation and sampled bananas while learning of the process. - We went through various small towns to get a sense of the culture. - We partook in the volcanic mud baths (not alot of time is spent here due to the sheer number of people). - We visited a waterfall (again, not alot of time was spent here due to the large number of visitors). - We had a lovely buffet lunch (including juice and ice cream) at Beacon Restaurant overlooking the stunning Pitons. - We visited a small yet pretty botanical garden next to Beacon Restaurant where we sampled some sweet white pulp around the cocoa beans. - We drove to the quaint town of Soufrieres where we stopped at the beach, prior to boarding our catamaran. - We snorkeled just outside of Soufrieres (not the best snorkeling I have done). - We took in the views from the water as we were shuttled back to the port via the catamaran. It was a long but amazing day that exceeded my expectations. The roads are very hilly and long but due to the lushness of the landscape, its hard to complain. I would be neglectful if I didn't mention the fantastic job Hans did. He was knowledgeable and passionate about the island and obviously loved everything about his home. He also was just a genuinely kind and nice guy which made the whole experience that much better!
Response from the operator: A heartfelt THANK YOU for your detailed and glowing review of our Land and Sea Tour with Serenity Vacations and Tours! Hans and the entire team are delighted to hear that your experience was exceptional and exceeded your expectations. Hans is thrilled by your kind words and takes great pride in sharing the beauty and culture of Saint Lucia with our guests. We’re glad you enjoyed the private excursion and the personalized touches, like the air-conditioned van stocked with delicious drinks, including our amazing rum punch. Your comprehensive recount of the tour captures the essence of what we aim to offer – a blend of breathtaking views, cultural insights, and unique experiences. From sampling fresh bananas at the plantation to enjoying a buffet lunch with stunning views of the Pitons, every stop is designed to showcase the diverse and lush landscape of our island. We appreciate your understanding of the brief time spent at the popular mud baths and waterfall due to their popularity. It’s wonderful to hear that the other elements of the tour, such as the botanical garden visit, the beach stop in Soufrière, and the catamaran ride, added to your enjoyment. Hans’s knowledge, passion, and genuine kindness truly enhance the experience, and we’re grateful for your recognition of his efforts. Your positive feedback inspires us to continue delivering memorable and exceptional tours. We look forward to welcoming you and your family back for more adventures in Saint Lucia. Thank you once again for choosing Serenity Vacations! Best regards, The Serenity Vacations & Tours family

Why this scores 48
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Choc.
How much does Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $498 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Choc usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Choc is not rushed.
Is Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Choc, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Choc can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Choc and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Choc within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Choc?
+
On Outty we rank every Choc experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sea and Land Tour in St. Lucia, St Lucia Full-Day Catamaran Sightseeing Cruise With Snorkeling, Waterfall and Beach Safari in Santa Lucia. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Choc?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Choc?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour?
+
Included: Private transportation; Bottled water; Alcoholic beverages; Lunch; and All Fees and Taxes. Not included: Towels. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 26 listed pickup locations in and around Choc. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour offered in?
+
It is offered in English, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
What do travelers say about Couples Private St. Lucia Highlights Tour?
+
Across 5 reviews averaging 4.2 out of 5, recurring themes include food and drink, the guide, knowledge and storytelling. The tastings and food stops are a highlight for most reviewers.
