We enjoyed our Bamboo River Rafting Excursion on the Roseau River in St Luica We booked directly with Viator. Some of the advantages of booking directly with Viator includes the following: ✅️ Transparent Pricing. ✅️ They provided 1st class transportation to and from our resort to our excursion. ✅️Detailed List of everything that's included and what isn't. ✅️Excellent customer service! In addition Bamboo River Rafting on the Roseau River is a peaceful, scenic excursion where local guides navigate you through lush rainforests and mangrove swamps. It is perfect for nature lovers and those seeking a laid-back, culturally immersive alternative to high-energy island adventures. ✅️ Ultimate Relaxation: Drifting down the island’s largest river is highly tranquil and serene—a great way to unwind away from crowded tourist hotspots. ✅️Local Insight: Our Guide/Captain was highly engaging, sharing knowledge about the island’s ecology, history, and medicinal plants. ✅️Complimentary Treats: Fresh, local fruits (like mango or sugarcane) cut on the spot, alongside local beer, rum tasting and bottled water. If you’re in St Lucia, book your bamboo rafting experience with Viator! Please tell them “ Tinsley Tidbits” sent you! Thank me later 🇱🇨

Unfortunately for us it was raining heavily for our whole ride down the river. It stopped when we were at the beach and we were treated to a rainbow. It is a very short ride for the cost. You can be waiting for the motor boat for a long time to be towed back to the beginning.

We had so much fun! Captain D was great. The river was so calm and serene and it was another aspect of St. Lucian beauty we got to see.

Wear water shoes and relax. Expect a great slow ride down the river to the sea. Amad aka Captain was a knowledgeable and friendly guide.

Gilbert was great and informative. He gave great information about things along the river. He showed us Old McDonald the farmer and Bob the Builder.

Amazing experience. We highly recommend it. Captain Joe (the one and only) is a fantastic host- funny, engaging, and informative. The mangrove was exceptional, we were greeted with fresh fruit at the beach, a great beverage which was better than a pina colada, and a lovely man selling souvenirs. We were provided an amaretto sour drink by Stephane at the end of the tour.

Great pick up driver from Royalton hideaway with informative 40 min drive to the river. Wonderful quiet, beautiful, peaceful, informative rode down the river on our own raft with a bench and our great guide Gilbert. We went to an amazing hidden mangrove area - very magical - and then a great beach where we found a lot of seamless and a sand dollar. Then a little outboard boat tows the raft back to the landing where there are bathrooms. They also provided us with beer, water or coke. A very, very fun, tranquil and pleasant morning off the beaten path!
