Jitan Tours: About You, For You!
One thought on “PARADISE TOUR”
My party of 6 travelled on a Jitan tour in August 2013. We found the driver Curtis easily when we left the cruise ship. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable throughout our day , giving us the true “flavor” of St Lucia! From the banana plantation to an art gallery to fresh coconut, creole bread and sugar Kane, he made us feel right at home. Unfortunately our day was cut short as our son experienced motion sickness due to the many winding and bouncing roads. Curtis, however couldn’t have been more helpful in offering to take us to the beach or anywhere he would feel better. I would recommend Jitan tours to anyone who visits St Lucia, they handled themselves very professionally yet with a true Caribbean hospitality. Found Jitan on the Internet by way of reviews and was not disappointed. Joanne from Pennsylvania
