Greetings Dear Vacationer,
Thank You for choosing St Lucia and for checking out all that we have in store for you!
While we started out with just the St Lucia Photo Tour taking out small groups of no more than 10 persons this all changed when COVID hit.
Out of an abundance of caution for clients’ safety we switched to Private Photo Tours exclusively and quickly expanded into other Private Excursions. We were blown away by how much people loved the personalised experience and simply never looked back.
Below you will find our main offerings, however we specialise in custom designed excursions based on your specific interests. So after checking out our most popular offerings below schedule a FREE Zoom Consultation to truly explore the possibilities.
While the St Lucia Photo Tour was originally only about photo tours as the name implies, COVID-19 came along and totally disrupted that apple cart.
Not one to let a good crisis go to waste, we quickly pivoted and switched to offering Private Photo Tours exclusively. This was out of an abundance of caution for the safety and well-being of our clients. We figured that by not mixing persons from different households we were pro-actively protecting our clients to the maximum.
A honeymooning couple loved this idea of private island experiences so much that they asked if we would create some non-photography Private St Lucia Excursions for them as they had no interest in photography, but simply loved our style. And so was born these very personalized Private St Lucia Tours.
If you are passionate about photography and wish to take your love for the art to a whole new level of creative expression, then the St Lucia Photo Tour is perfect for you. Kirk will introduce you to his contrarian approach to photography that will have you seeing the light – literally, as well as creatively.
Kirk’s One Shot/One Kill approach along with his Michael Angelo Theory will have you shooting less but nailing more shots than ever before! Little wonder folks over on TripAdvisor are raving about their day spent with Kirk on these Photo Tours.
Oh, and if you’ve ever been reluctant to take pictures of locals abroad Kirk will introduce you to a secret hack that guarantees you will get the most amazingly engaging photos of locals abroad without offending anyone. You will be amazed at how well this technique works and best of all – you’ll have the pictures to prove it!

St Lucia is an amazingly exotic Caribbean island that is ideal for soft adventure. The island sits directly in the path of the North East Trade Winds which blow off West Africa and straight across the Atlantic Ocean . These winds bring the rains which keep us a vibrant shade of green for much of the year. Now the beautiful thing about the rains is that they tend to fall early in the mornings and sometimes in the early afternoon too. In fact it is not unusual for the rains to be coming down in buckets per minute at 5:00 AM and by 7:30 AM or so there’s beautiful blue sky and brilliant sunshine, as if it never rained! Such is the nature of St Lucia Weather.
Private St Lucia Excursions
While the tours above are some of the long established and popular ones, in recent years there have been complaints that many St Lucia tours are dated and may even have lost some of their shine. In fact, this was the sentiment expressed by some senior tourism officials when they visited St Lucia a few years ago trying to get the island to update its visitor experiences.
Bearing this in mind, together with feedback from clients, we decided to heed the words of those tourism executives and create something fresh and new… well, actually – a few things fresh and new!
So what’s the best St Lucia Excursion I can hear you asking. Well, there’s really no best St Lucia Excursion. Instead, it’s all about what experience tickles your fancy most. So, to discover what will be best for you we invite you to jump on a FREE Zoom Consultation with us so we can explore what works best for you. Armed with this info we will then develop your perfect St Lucia Excursions!
While St Lucia is arguably one of the prettiest of all the Caribbean islands, pretty is merely skin deep while true beauty comes from within. And St Lucia has a beauty that emanates from the depths of her soul.
You see, Saint Lucia was fought for many times and in the process changed hands a total of 14 times to be 7 times English and 7 times French. And in the midst of all of this both her rich Amerindian and her rich African influences helped fashion us into the unique place and people we are today. However, because both the Amerindian and the African facets of our history and culture were oral rather than written they are more elusive, but still very much present.
As a National Geographic Certified Educator I have been digging deep into the reservoirs of our history and culture with a view to bringing to life these little known aspects of our history and culture. I have made this a central part of all our Private St Lucia excursions and this is the secret sauce that brings our St Lucia excursions to life in a way that is unlike all others.
So once you’ve checked out the activities above and have an idea of what things you’d like to do hit us up on chat, or by clicking the “Book a Consultation” button on any of our webpages, and let’s get you experiencing the very best Private St Lucia Excursions.
