Optional Private Excursions

Avoid the crowds and hustle and bustle associated with a group activity. For a memorable trip ashore, we invite you to consider a private shore excursion. Enjoy the undivided attention of your own driver/guide and the flexibility of experiencing the aspects of the local culture that most interest you. Below are just some samples of the private shore excursions we can arrange for you. Let us personalize your experience!

St. Lucia - Gros Piton Climb

Life has its rewards, you will find many of them on the Gros Piton Nature Trail. Travel by coach along
the scenic West Coast of the island through lush tropical vegetation onto the Fond Gens Libre, "village of the free people" community, to the welcome center. From this point, you are joined by a knowledgeable guide, who would guide you along the trail which winds around the mountain at a gradual gradient.

Enjoy panoramic vistas in every direction and see Petit Piton in the distance. The first half of the trail
is moderate and can be enjoyed by everyone, while the second half involves a steep accent to the summit suitable to the more adventurous hiker. After a strenuous but exhilarating climb, return to the bus for a scenic ride back to your resort or Cruise pier.

Inclusions:

  • Knowledgeable Guide
?
Duration: 8 hours

Tip off: This is a very strenuous hike suitable for the physically fir. Not for those with heart, back, neck problems or may be pregnant.
Cameras are a must. Wear comfortable hiking shoes (no heels or flip flops allowed)
