Gros Piton Nature Trail, St Lucia
Tour / Activity
Location: Castries, Saint Lucia
My Review: This is a very, very challenging hike, but the reward upon finishing is fantastic and well worth the effort. The views are postcard perfect. The trail is very well marked, however, you are required to have a "guide". I think this is just so locals can make money, but I don't really have a problem with that. However, our guide basically led us up the trail, but did not share much information. I learned more about the trail and the mountain by reading about it before we even arrived in St. Lucia. There are some really good photo spots along the trail, including an incredible view of Petit Piton at the 1/2 mark. While the hike itself is pretty fantastic, it can be a very long drive (1.5-2 hrs) from areas of Castries or further north. It is a very winding and twisty road. Our tour driver never stopped for lunch, as listed, which was a huge negative since we were starving after hiking. At $130, this tour is way overpriced(especially without lunch), but if you are a hiker and you want great views, it might be worth the money.

New York in One Day Sightseeing Tour
Tour / Activity
Location: New York City, New York
My Review: This tour is a great way to start a visit to New York City. You get a really nice overview of the city before venturing out on your own to complete a more in depth exploration of these locations. The tour guide we had was very nice, but a little corny and his explanation of stuff was overacted. Overall, it was a very good tour and definitely worth doing. Please be aware that this is a small tour bus likely filled with people you don't know. It is possible that some foreign speaking visitor will suddenly get up and stop the tour because they have to use the restroom, as happened on our tour.
