Meet your guide at your North Island St. Lucia hotel and climb aboard your vehicle for the drive to Soufriere. On the west coast road, pass through working banana plantations and traditional fishing villages, such as the 100-year-old Morne Fortune, the official residence of the Governor-General. Enjoy insightful commentary from your guide about the island's agriculture, wildlife, culture and history along the way.
Spectacular views of the Pitons, two volcanic peaks that are on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list, announce your arrival in Soufriere. Head to Sulphur Springs, the Caribbean's volcano that allows drive-in access, to see the bubbly waters from a viewing platform.
Visit the Diamond Falls Botanical Gardens, whose centerpiece is the colorful Diamond Waterfall. This 56-foot (17-meter) mineral-rich waterfall is one of St. Lucia's most treasured natural wonders. While strolling the lush tropical gardens with commentary from your guide, keep an eye out for native birds that live in the mahogany and red cedar forest.
At the conclusion of your Soufriere adventure, climb back on the vehicle for the drive back to your St. Lucia hotel.
