GOOD Based on 15 reviews Posted on Brad ThomasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. How anyone could rate this man under 5 stars is beyond my comprehension. Nigel is the guy and he will help you navigate the local attractions in the area. You can have him plan your whole excursion, or just hire him for driving jobs or info. For example, he was able to connect us with a fish vendor in Choiseul that led us to some of the freshest fish I've ever had. He's the right man for the job.Posted on Mellissa ChinnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nigel was great. Very friendly and went above and beyond. He knew the island well and avoided the traffic when everything was backed up. He has refreshments stocked in the vehicle such as water, and rum and cold beers. He also can arrange any kind of excursion you would want and cater it to your preferences. He knows the best spots to try food and where to get the best views for pictures. Book what you need here, transport from the airport and excursions. You won’t regret.Posted on Paul GeorgeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I rented a car In November, and several times last season when I was anchored below the Pitons. Hotspeed has always been responsive and great service! - will be back in February !!!Posted on Jessica DrakerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nigel truly made our trip to Saint Lucia special. He is such a gem and is so kind and passionate about the island. He told us that his goal was to make us have the best time—and he delivered! He gave us lots of good suggestions of places to see and visit, and always went the extra mile. He would proactively stop at look-outs to show us sights and to take pictures. We never felt rushed through any experience. It was actually immensely comforting having Nigel shepherd us through attractions like the mud baths, waterfalls, etc, as he knew exactly where to go and what to see and do. What really sets Nigel apart is his caring and attentive nature. We really felt like we got to know him on a personal level and he took so much care to tailor our experiences to our interests. For example, upon learning that I love seafood, he took us to a local place in Laborie fishing village for a truly local food experience, and took us to the Choiseul fish market where he got us fresh lobster (a special birthday treat!). We’re fairly certain Nigel knows everyone in the south. He’s got a large network, which is helpful for planning logistics of activities. For example, he organized boat transportation to Anse Chastenet/Anse Mamin from Soufriere on extremely short notice so we could avoid the terrible road portion. Each time we were accompanied by Nigel, people we would meet would tell us how great a guy he is and how lucky we were to have him as our driver and guide—and we definitely felt that way! Don’t hesitate to book him for any of your transport or touring needs. Not only did we find his prices fair and competitive, but you end up with a private tour where everything is tailored to your own preferences and you’re not on anyone else’s schedule but your own!Posted on oneisha mcraeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the absolute pleasure of having Nigel as my tour guide and driver during my recent trip to St.Lucia. He is a gem, gentleman , an excellent driver and has a good sense of humor. He shared so much about the island’s history and culture making the tour informative and enjoyable. He was very helpful in taking amazing pictures along the many stops. I would highly recommend his services which are very prompt, professional and friendly. Thank you for treating me like family and making my trip one to remember. With love from a Guyanese Oneisha.Posted on Stephen AbbottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
