Great boat trip round the island - We had an amazing day looking round island landmarks from the speedboat then in land by bus to the mud baths and waterfall. Our guide Terry was brilliant he was well up on the island facts, loads of patience taking photos of each couple at the mud baths, waterfall and on the boat. There was plenty of rum punch, beer or water whichever suited you. Not sure name of Captain but he was skilled in the navigation of the boat plus making us scream when be banked round on a tight curve. It was a fun day out right from the start picking us up from the beach at the Royalton. Also would like to mention Jermaine from the Royalton beach signed us up for the trip he was helpful polite and not too pushy. Carole and Dave

Great day!! - We had a great half day on the speed boat! Our resort was pretty far north, so we were looking for a tour that wouldn’t be mostly spent on a bus or slow catamaran just to get to the starting point. The price was very reasonable, and the trip was everything we were looking for - great view and pictures of the pitons, fantastic snorkeling, mud baths, a waterfall and lunch at a local spot. Terry our guide was excellent, giving us lots of info, taking great pictures and keeping us moving. This is a speedboat and you will go fast, don’t was pretty windy, but it was a gorgeous day and we enjoyed being out on the water.

Great way to do a lot without spending all day getting there! - This was a great way to experience a variety of St. Lucian sights and activities without burning a whole day of your vacation! For around the same price as the large and busy boat tours you get a smaller speedboat that lets you see around the island faster than most of these tours. We had 11 people on board with Captain Vincent and guide (wish I remembered his name). Ours left the hotel at 9am and cruised down along the west coast of the island with the tour guide pointing out locales and facts along the way. We got off the boat in Soufriere, and the guide got us into a van and over to the volcano/mud baths. We pulled up to a huge crowd of cruise ship traffic, and he worked his magic and got our little group in ahead of the masses. Feeling refreshed, we went to a natural waterfall site to rinse off and take photos. From there, we returned to the boat and went up to Sugar Beach between the Pitons for some snorkeling and swimming. From there we cruised around the spot and enjoyed some beers and rum punch. We went up to Marigot Bay next and docked for a local-style lunch (included). One more round of drinks and we headed back past a natural rock arch and floored it back to the resort by 2:15 or so. If I had to pick a downside, the speedboat experience made it less of a party atmosphere than some other boat excursions we have done in Mexico and Aruba, but you got to see so much here and still have the afternoon pool time at the resort. We passed a catamaran packed to the gills with tourists on the way back and knew we made the right choice. Highly recommended.

Amazing time! - Well worth it! The views were amazing. Seeing the beauty of the island of St. Lucia with Real Deal Boat tours was breathtaking. Capt. Vincent and Terry were perfect hosts. Thank you!

Gotta Take a Tour with Louis and Crew! - My wife and I had a great time aboard the "Richie Rich" with Shaggy and crew! Awesome ride down the coastline, volcanic baths, refreshing waterfall, amazing snorkeling, excellent lunch in Marigot Bay and potent rum punch (and other drinks) for the ride back (be sure to ask the best way to drink it to avoid spraying it all over the boat)! We would go with these guys again!
