Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Had a fantastic day out full of laughs, lovely people and wonderful organisers!
Vaughan, Shane and driver were great and made sure we had a good time!
Meeting Joy in his wonderful home and having him explain how this started was fascinating. Wonderful food and lots of rum on the way back, what’s not to like??

This made our St. Lucia trip absolutely perfect. Von was our guide- he was funny, energetic, informative, and super engaging!! This is a family business and the hospitality they extend speaks volumes of the island and the culture of the St Lucian people. This is a MUST if you want a tour, the mud bath, beach time between the Pitons, a home garden tour and the best- a family style home-cooked meal. We cannot recommend this enough. We had the BEST time!

Joy was very accommodating and took us to the botanical gardens when we did not want to do the mud baths. His buffet lunch cooked by his wife is excellent using all ingredients from his farm. He has a good selection for vegetarians, He lets us sample delicacies you get otherwise only in Castries market tour but without paying extra. They are a simple, honest, and fun family.

I organised this excursion for my St Lucia crew which included 27 of us I was happy that I chose Joy’s Adventure excursion and coastal cruise as they had outstanding service with a smile always on their face which was contagious to every passenger onboard. The group and I had an amazing time experiencing our itinerary that was put place with informative stops along the way as well as the delicious food for lunch. I would like to thank the captain and the rest of the crew for taking us on a wonderful adventure through the island and giving my family a wonderful day out🙌🏽🇱🇨🩵
Reviews from the rest of the group:
I’m not usually fond of boats but I had a fantastic time on the boat trip, the captain and the crew were very clear with instructions, and the itinerary put together was perfect. The music and rum punch provided made a very happy party boat. Would definitely recommend them!!
Amazing day out, with sunshine, sea and vibes. Well organised, being well looked after, fed and watered at great value for money. Would highly recommend as a day out in St Lucia 🇱🇨
Had a great time on Joys boat trip! We were in good hands with Raymond and his crew. We were shown beautiful and historical sites along the way to the waterfall and sulphur springs which were amazing!! The lunch provided was delicious and to end the trip we went snorkelling. This was magical! Beautiful and picturesque!! Was a large number of us ranging from babies to adults …we were all looked after during the whole trip. Would 100% book with them the next time I visit the island!
Great day out! The crew are funny and know how to get a party going, very accommodating. They have interesting knowledge of the whole island. Overall a great experience with fun for the whole group.
A day full of sun and fun 10/10.
Fantastic from start to finish, the captain was very informative and the crew lively and fun. We had a great day exploring the island by sea and land!
An amazing day out! Couldn't have asked for anything more!
Highly recommended tour whilst in St.Lucia, as a large group we were accommodated and had a great time. Staff were entertaining and informative and allowed us to enjoy ourselves to the fullest.
Yes indeed a great crew, captain was accommodating and went above and beyond in making sure of our safety to having the most wonderful time, and that we did 💯🥳🥳🥳 would recommend this trip to happy and bubblely people.

Fantastic cruise, best around. This is a must do in St Lucia. Views were awesome, boat staff was awesome. Lunch, mud baths, waterfall and snorkeling. I though the price was worth each event, and we did all 4!!

My husband and I really enjoyed the Joy’s Adventure excursion for our honeymoon! Our tour guides were awesome! We enjoyed the boat ride and learning the history of St Lucia. The whole experience was amazing. We loved the mud bath, waterfall, snorkeling and the wonderful authentic lunch at Joys home! We got to meet Joy in person and he shared how his wife and daughter does the cooking. We got to jump off the boat and experience the wonderful waters.

Highly recommend this trip! Done this same trip about 9 years ago with Joy and was really nice to do this again! All the crew are so great ! The snorkeling spot they take you was just out of this world! Like an aquarium!
Tour round Joys gardens and then lunch there was really good.
Thanks again to all

Amazing experience with Joy and his family, was in St Lucia for birthday celebrations at St James Club and met Joy and his family whilst staying there. The whole experience from start to finish and the laughs that the crew bought to the experience was fantastic. Highly recommend this trip, and the rum punch! there was plenty to eat at Joys home where the trip takes you for food and the way the team looked after their party to get them to the front of the crew at the waterfalls and the mud baths was great. Best trip of the holiday!

We have our own snorkel gear, would it benefit us to bring it along or do they provide decent gear of their own?

They provide for both adults and children. The equipment looked in good shape. They told you to clean them in the ocean before you use them. If you want to bring your own you can. You can leave them on the boat when you're not using them. Everything is safe and secure. Snorkeling time is about an hour. You will not be disappointed!

We'll be staying at the Hideaway Royalton. How do we book and would we need to travel to a pick up point?

They’ll send a driver and take you to the marina. They’ll send you back in a taxi from the marina. Make sure you bring some small bills for the drivers. Note you’ll also have a driver that takes you to the mud baths and waterfall so be prepared for 3 driver tips. I wish I had known ahead of time

We paid US dollars and you can pay with local currency but they accept credit /debit cards at the end of the trip at his house.
Best trip I've been on in years, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did :-)

I am interested on taking one of Joy’s tours. We are taking a princess cruise that docks at 8am and we have to back on the ship by 5. Has anyone on a cruise taken the tour and is it doable with the time restraints?

We too were staying at a resort, but you can email them and ask them
look up Joy Tours in St. Lucia - and go to bookings
they advertise that they pickup from cruise ships, plus I'm sure that the cruise line has dealt with them in the past.
