Awesome hike up the volcano.

5.00Hard hike but worthwhile for the views and experience. Try to wear good shoes and bring a windbreaker as it can be cooler, wetter and windy at the top.
Lawman was very...

5.00Lawman was very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of information about the volcano and the island itself. Although the weather was not the best, he made sure we still got good views

5.00Our tour guide lavaman , truly made the entire experience unforgettable. From the start, he had such a chill and laid-back vibe that instantly put everyone at ease. It never felt rushed or overly scripted—instead, it felt like exploring with a knowledgeable friend who genuinely loves what he does.

5.00It was a privilege to climb Soufriere volcano with the famous Lava Man, he is both kind and professional. We were a group of three....being an older lady I found it challenging and went quite slowly. Lava Man was patient and considerate and never made me feel uneasy for being slow. Lava Man gave us lots of time at the crater for a rest, photos and eating snacks. This was our highlight in St Vincent...such a fabulous experience and Lava Man is a fantastic human being❤️

5.00Great island tour by AC van before and after the hike. The path was very well maintained and our guide pointed out many things along the way. The hike was as expected, approx 4 hours total and the crater views were spectacular.

5.00Great tour with Lavaman. The tour started early which we prefer (before it gets hot). Lavaman was a great guide - we really enjoyed the tour to La Soufriere.

5.00I'm over 50 and was not ready for this hike. My husband encouraged and pushed me all the way through. Our guide, Lavaman, was professional and informative. He was patient with me as it took forever for me to go up and down. The views and experience were spectacular. My husband and son loved the adventure. I would recommend this hike for someone more fit than me.
Not safe, and very mentally unstable guide

1.00First in the morning the guide that calls himself lavaman wanted to put 9 people in an eight person minivan. I objected and said it was not safe as there were also kids going on yhe tour and he became aggressive. I was calm and said he should book another taxi which he did. He went alone in this other taxi leaving his guests in the first taxi. He talked to himself loudly like a mentally unstable person. The hike went fine but he did not say a word to anyone and did not wait for slower participants unless he was told to. After the hike he wanted more money in cash for an unspecified tax? We all refused topay as it was stated everything was included. He snapped and talked loudly to himself and screamed at me and random people. This person should get help and not be able to tun tours until he is stable.
