St. Lucia 4/4 ideas

[lsunnen]

Hey everyone! A group of 3 of us will be in port on our cruise on thursday 4/4. We were originally looking at the COSOL tour but there were a few things that weren't of interest to us so we were thinking of just hiring a taxi for the day to take us the places we were wanting to see.  We know we were wanting to do the volcano/mud bath/waterfall and a fish market, possibly some beach time as well.  Can anyone recommend other things we shouldn't miss? Also, does anyone know how much a taxi for the day typically is?

Reconsider your decision not to book with a reputable tour operator.

Is there a specific reason why we should go with a predetermined tour??

A driver for the day will run $200 plus or minus.  Plus entrance fees, food and drink, etc. 

They're readily available at the port - uniformed, licenced, insured, a/c, etc.  Similar to a tour operator.

A fish market will be hit or miss - they're generally selling earlier in the morning or later in the afternoon. (after the ship has sailed).. the Castries craft and food market is an option - right across from the port. 

Enjoy
