suggestions for day tour

will be one day in st Lucia on a royal Caribbean cruise... any thoughts of best of the best?

We booked an excursion on-line with Cosol Tours and thoroughly enjoyed our day in St. Lucia. Cosol is highly recommended on Tripadvisor.

John Nester is the owner. He is one of the absolute best tour guides. Period.

You can do Frank tours he also has fee WIFI during the tour.

For those of you that have done Cosol tours do you remember how long the beach stop at Jalousie Beach was?

I am pretty sure we went to Sugar Beach with Cosol for about 1.5 hour. We enjoyed the boatride there the scenery and the snorkeling.

Great :) thanks for the info.

We booked a private tour with James Touring Service (Jamestouringservicedotcom). James was quick to respond to my email and even called me at home. We decided on this only a few days before we left for our cruise. He tailored the tour to what we wanted to see - no beach, volcano or mud bath for us. James and his assistant were very knowledgeable about their Island. The tour even included lunch at a lovely spot with a view of the Pitons. His "Steelers" van is very clean, cool and extremely comfortable. I highly recommend James for a great day in St. Lucia.

How much is a private tour with James? That would be fun :)

Another one for Cosol tours! It was great! The stop at Jeoluse (sp) beach I think was about an hour, it was great snorkeling!

Been to St. Lucia several times, going back in January and have used Spencer Ambrose who offers a tour "By Land and Sea"....part by van, then a beach stop between the Pitons at Jalousie beach for lunch, then board a boat to view the island by sea. Excellent tour and doing it AGAIN in January....breaks up the driving on those hilly narrow and winding roads...the best of both worlds.

James charges $70 per person, includes lunch.

thanks for the info Ferrygirl :)

Don't overlook the excursions offered by your ship. :)

Agree wholeheartedly. Whatever tour operator you use, make sure its a "land and sea" style excursion. That's the best way to see how beautiful the island truly is.
