About Sweet Escape Tours
Passionate locals sharing the authentic beauty and culture of Saint Lucia with travelers from around the world
Our Story
Sweet Escape Tours was founded in 2015 by Sheldon and Merl, two lifelong St. Lucians with a deep passion for their island home and a vision to create authentic, immersive experiences for visitors. Having grown up exploring every hidden corner of St. Lucia, they recognized that many tourists were missing the true essence of the island when visiting with large commercial tour groups.
What began as a small operation with just one vehicle and a handful of personalized tours has blossomed into St. Lucia's premier boutique tour company, while still maintaining the personalized service and attention to detail that set us apart from the beginning.
Today, our team of professional guides continues to uphold John and Maria's vision, combining their extensive local knowledge with warm hospitality to create unforgettable St. Lucia experiences for our guests. Whether you're discovering the majestic Pitons, relaxing in volcanic mud baths, or simply traveling between the airport and your accommodation, our commitment to excellence remains unwavering.
