Tip: We used Martis from Phillip Tours last Monday (March 6) to do a tour of the
island. He was very friendly and informative. Jackson is the "other half" of the
company; he is the father of Martis. Although it was just my husband and I, Martis
used one of those small mini-vans to drive us around (it probably could have
seated 10 if completely full and using the jump seats). He brought along a cooler
of drinks for us (water and Piton beer), and stopped to buy freshly-baked bread,
as well as gave us a snack of plantain chips during the trip home. I thought those
were all nice touches. The trip lasted about 5.5 hours, with an hour stop for
lunch. We requested to have lunch at Dasheen at Ladera in Soufriere (not included
in the price), but stopping at a local or less well-known restaurant could have
shortened the time (but Ladera was wonderful to see). Our price was $150 for the
day, plus tip. That included admission to the Toraille Waterfall and the drive-in
volcano.
