    The tour was great. Our tour guide Pattia was fabulous and very entertaining. Its a full day of excitement and fun. To top it off, they provided a great lunch and drinks.

    Verry verry bad company,

    terrible company, didn't even bother to indicate in advance that the tour was cancelled due to lack of participants but did charge the amount to your credit card. Upon arrival at the port, the coordination and handling of the tour was very chaotic, and yes you can blame it on the crowds due to multiple cruise ships, but that is also known in advance and so you can respond to that. in short, if possible don't book anything with Edmund Tours, you can be very disappointed and they keep you on land for more than half an hour in the dark about how, what and where about your tour.

    Tour not as advertised

    The tour was not as advertised or detailed in the booking information below. We were supposed to stop at Castries for 10 mins to see the church. We neither stopped nor drove passed it. We drove passed the airport and went into the harbour dock, neither of which interested me. The 10 mins stop would also have been welcomed after sitting in a crowded bus for an hour or so. No explanation was given. We were supposed to stop and visit Anse La Raye Quarter. We didn't. No explanation was given. We were supposed to stop at Canaries and visit the village for 15 mins. We didn't. No explanation was given. At Soufriere we were supposed to have the opportunity of visiting the town. We didn't. When we arrived we were herded of the bus straight onto a speed boat which took us to Sugar Beach. At Sugar Beach we were herded into a very small corner so that some people could go snorkelling. We were there for an hour. There is absolutely no mention of this in the booking itinerary. I went on this tour to "Discover St Lucia" not sit on a beach which I could have done at my hotel or near by. In the tour description you state, "water, sodas, beers and unlimited rum punch" are included. The first time any of these items was offered was at Sugar Beach and then only for the hour we were there. We sat on a bus for over 3 hours to get to Soufriere and I had expected to be offered a bottle of water during that time, from a health and safety aspect if nothing else. In fact, from a H&S aspect we should have been given a bottle of water immediately we got on the bus. Due to your description, I did not take my own water to reduce what I was carrying. We were supposed to visit hummingbird beach. We didn't. I would hazard a guess its name derives from the fact there are humming birds there. It would have been nice to see them. For some unknown reason, we visited a crack in some sea rock to see bats. This was not on the itinerary and we were there barely 3 minutes before being whisked away. Our tour guide Smallie did talk about bats before we got to Soufriere, but it was done in a way to tease the ladies about their make-up. At lunch all we got was a very small cup of juice and water. No beer, sodas or rum punch were available when I requested one. Unlimited, I think not!! The only other time drinks were offered was after bathing in the sulphur springs and then for only 15 or 20 mins. A 15 mins stop at the Pitons was scheduled for after the visit to Soufriere which didn't happen. We went straight to the waterfall and then the sulphur springs. Admittedly we did stop before arriving at Soufriere and got off the bus to take photos of the Pitons, but I don't define that as stopping at the Pitons. Stopping at the Pitons would be similar to what is included in the Hotel Chocolate tour. In fact, in the "ticket" I subsequently was sent, it states entry/admission to the Pitons is included. The Pitons is only a short distance from the sulphur springs, so made sense to visit from there. Your description states that this Excursion covers all the main highlights and attractions of the island by land. There is nothing about going in a boat and a speed boat at that. It also states that it allows us to explore the island at our own pace. Not correct, the pace and places were solely dictated by the driver, including, at least 25 minutes sitting, looking at a cruise liner. Thats time we should have spent visiting the cathedral. You state this is not a crowded tour. The bus was full with about25 people and then we packed another 4 in at Soufriere. I call that crowded.

    Buyer Beware!

    Really disappointed. We had hoped to have far more sea time in the land and sea tour. The driver went to seven different resorts to pick everybody up. This meant that the first couple were on a bus for three and a half hours until we finally arrived at the boat segment. This was exacerbated by the driver having to return to one of the resorts because he forgot to pick a couple up. This added half an hour to the outbound journey time. The sea part entailed a five minute boat ride to another beach where we had just over an hour to snorkel. This is when the fabled free bar opened. It was a cool box. It was open for the boat section of the tour only, so approx two hours. Due to a lack of time, the bus driver gleefully pointed out all the beauty spots where we would have stopped had we had time… The lunch was very nice, the waterfall and mud baths great but we had to hurry through both, because of time constraints. All in all, seven or eight hours out of ten on a minibus is not ideal so be prepared. The driver was knowledgeable and passionate but was unclear in his communication. It would have been better had he have told us a broad itinerary from the start and explained what was going on with an element of clarity.

    Snorkeling and the mud baths. Very knowledgeable guy, Smalley; shame the roads are so bad and the journey back was horrible.

    Discover Saint Lucia: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Choc.

    How much does Discover Saint Lucia cost?

    +

    Prices start at $135 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 Discover Saint Lucia take?

    +

    Plan for about 6.5 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 Discover Saint Lucia worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 13 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 Discover Saint Lucia?

    +

    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 Discover Saint Lucia suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Discover Saint Lucia?

    +

    Around 5 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 6.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Discover Saint Lucia 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 Soufriere Volcano Experience, Sea and Land Tour in St. Lucia, St Lucia Full-Day Catamaran Sightseeing Cruise With Snorkeling. 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 Discover Saint Lucia?

    +

    Included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Discover Saint Lucia include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 29 listed pickup locations in and around Choc. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Discover Saint Lucia offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. 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 Discover Saint Lucia?

    +

    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 Discover Saint Lucia wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible; Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; Specialized infant seats are available; and Transportation options are wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Discover Saint Lucia 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 Discover Saint Lucia?

    +

    Across 13 reviews averaging 3.9 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, food and drink, knowledge and storytelling. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works.
