Stop At: Rainforest Adventures, 6066 Car Park Near Castries Waterworks Forest Reserve, Castries St. Lucia
Swinging out across the treetops in an open-air gondola seating just eight people, you’ll spy lavender, orange, yellow and white flowers blooming in the giant trees of the tropical rainforest.
Your professional naturalist guide can answer any questions, provide entertaining anecdotes and help identify the fauna and flora. Keep a lookout for agoutis on the ground and St Lucia's endemic and endangered parrot, the jacquot, flying through the air.
The St Lucia rainforest aerial tour is just a short distance from the capital city, Castries, in an ecological park that's home to indigenous and endangered wildlife. A small group tour with a difference, the St Lucia tropical rainforest tour also provides spectacular views of the north side of St Lucia, and an exhilarating ride that's guaranteed to refresh the senses.

Amazing. Great to Vanilla growing in the wild. Shame that there were people screaming as they were doing the zip line. Whilst I realise that its great for them I am sure all the screaming meant the wildlife hid. Aerial tram was very quiet and the views great.

Floating at the tree tops was very peaceful and beautiful. Lyndon was a great guide with a sense of humor. He also took us on a trail walk and pointed out the different type of flowers and trees. Tip: in order to go on the walk you must wear closed toes foot wear.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested in the beautiful island of St Lucia - to see something other than the resorts when you have come so far away from home is a real treat.
The trees, flowers and wildlife are amazing as if the knowledge of the guides.
We went up almost 1800ft above sea level into the canopy of the rainforest in a lovely, gentle, and safe gondola where you could see for miles.
Simply stunning and highly recommend

Absolutely loved this 1/2 day out looking at the stunning rainforest in St Lucia.
The information given by the amazing staff was informal but informative and we were treated to some simply stunning sights and sounds and took some amazing pictures.
Highly recommended to all…

All booked but absolutely chaos. Turn up and be ready to have a very long wait. No one has a clue what is going on. No one even cares. They need a lesson in organisation because there is none

It was amazing. The tour guide was brilliant, explaining about certain trees and plants and the history of the forest, so interesting to here.
The views were stunning
We loved everything about it and this is certainly a must to do.

Extremely knowledgeable and interesting lady tour guide. Very well organised from pick up at cruise terminal to safe and professional boarding of aerial tram early morning to guided tour of island to drop off back to cruise ship. Loved the tranquility of the hour long gondola ride with commentary through the rainforest with magnificent views at the top. Optional guided walk in the rain forest learning about the plants, trees and fruits was most enjoyable. Time for a drink at the cafe. Picked up a few tips on which spices to use for good health and ailments on the mini bus ride around the island. Learnt interesting facts about the people, history and information on St Lucia.

I had an amazing experience doing the aerial tram through the rainforest! Our guide Gevan was so knowledgeable and made the tour very entertaining! Must do when I’m St. Lucia!

The aerial tram was very nice and informative. We are glad we got to do this and would do it again.
The only negative thing we have to say about this experience is that transportation is not included and it was $75 each way to the rainforest ($150 in just the taxi)
My only suggestion for this event would be to provide transportation for this event. Where there is no surprises like a $150 taxi ride on top of the excursion price!!!

Aerial tram ride through the tree tops was OK, although only the odd bird and butterfly spotted. I think the shouts of people ziplining nearby probably scares off any wildlife.
Biggest issue was the cost - beware the Rainforest booking site. The wording on their site states that transport from the North is" 20$ per person". Then underneath that "prices start from 80$ till 4 persons Then 20$ additional per person." Then underneath again that "discounts may apply in next step". This suggests that the transport costs a minimum of 80$ but reduces in price the more people travelling. We travelled in a minibus with 6 other people but were still charged 80$, although none of the other passengers had been charged this much!
