Driving to the pitons ..

[Karen Lynn]

Anyone ever rented a car / Jeep and driven around the island and to see the Pitons?

Any feedback appreciated ..

To me personally because winding roads make me nervous I wouldn't do it. Its why whenever i want to venture near souferie or that area i take a boat tour or water taxi. You can always do an internet search of "driving in st. Lucia" or a YouTube search. Ive done that when we've driven in europe. It helps alleviate my silly fears of winding roads but also gives me a perspective on what its like. I think the big reason people dont do it is because of the traffic and the distance (90 minutes from port). It will be nice once they build the new terminal there as i had read online.

+1 for concern about roads.

 

It is about 500 bends in 90 minute ride (up and down few monutains)

Pretty uncomfortable even for people who do not get motion sickness in cars/bus.
