13.Gros Piton Hike with Dannyboy & Co.

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 210 reviews · from $90

Rise early for a guided climb of 2,620-foot Gros Piton with Dannyboy or another local driver from St. Lucia Best Experience Tours. Expect rough rock, steep sections, official hiking guides, Caribbean views, hotel or port transport, water, and a cold Piton beer afterward. The $50 entrance fee is extra.

“The description of this activity is a “shared” hike. My wife and I preferred to have a private experience as we didn’t expect to hike the same pace as others, but it’s not a big deal. The night before our excursion, we received an e-mail from the operator saying that no one else signed up for the hike, so it would be private, and we owe an extra $55. It was not our fault that no one else signed up for this hike, nor does the description say anything about supplemental fees if no one else signs up. Additionally, the description lists a “cold Piton beer” and a “brief island…”

But, the three of us are in fairly good shape and still struggled with the terrain (think constant climb for 2+ miles, in the mud.) I’d describe it as ten CrossFit workouts combined into one. But the guides were great and the view was beautiful, so overall we are so glad that we did it… just go prepared!”
