Don’t miss this combination of four-wheel-drive fun, history, sightseeing and a chance to see the island of St Lucia from a totally different perspective.
Drive through the capital of Castries and head up to the Morne Viewpoint for a panoramic view of Castries and its surroundings.
In the Cul de Sac Valley, you’ll follow the road edged with banana palms swaying in the breeze.
Pause to admire the picturesque village of Dennery, stretch your legs and take in the spectacular view of the Atlantic Ocean.
Next stop -- the river pool at La Tille Falls. Leave your 4x4 vehicle for a stroll through the gardens to view various fruit trees and plants. Sip a cool, refreshing beverage before setting off on a short hike on the natural trail (walking sticks provided). At the river pool, there will be time here for a swim if you wish, and relaxation. Learn how this peaceful estate survives on its own hydro and solar systems -- an environmentally friendly, sustainable and beautiful setting. You may also be treated to a sample of local snacks.
Servings of fresh fruit provide a tropical wake-up call for your taste buds before you re-board your 4x4 vehicle for the journey back to the ship.
Notes:
Drive time is approximately 1.25 hours each way. Each vehicle is equipped with padded roll bars, and with seat belts which must be worn. Vehicles are open on the top and sides, with seating for up to 16 guests. Wear casual clothing and shoes that you don’t mind getting wet. Wear your swimsuit under your clothing; bring a towel, reef-safe/biodegradable sunscreen, light clothing to act as a full cover-up for further protection from the sun, and a hat. Swim at your own risk. Shade is limited. Bring bottled water. The route is winding. Guests prone to motion sickness should consider this before booking and/or take appropriate medication. Minimum age is 8 years.
