Soufriere is a long way from Castries. The cruise ships have some sea and land excursions that would get you south more quickly. I do not get motion sickness easily, but the taxi ride across St Lucia can do it. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Sick.gif" alt="" />

No, renting a car is not the best idea for a cruise ship passenger. To get to Soufriere, it is an hour+ drive over very twisty, potholed roads. Take a boat excursion....

From a ship, definitely take a taxi tour or a boat excursion. Getting around in St. Lucia takes a LONG time and the roads are not the best.

Most of those excursions are on pretty big boats, if you're worried about some kind of a tippy fishing boat or something?? Regardless, if you prefer a land taxi, go for it..

I really don't know myself. Would suggest you google it. Are you sure that any exist?
