Thank you!!

We’re similar in that we’re just doing our first river cruise in Provence this year after many ocean cruises. I have a dear friend who specializes as a travel agent in cruises of all sorts and she puts AMA and Uniworld on top. We chose AMA bv we hit them when they were having a 20% sale which made their cost similar to Viking. Friend likes AMA bc fewer passengers, bikes always available, local wines are a focus, and incredible food. Not saying the other higher end aren’t similar but her preference plus the sale and timing made it our choice. Also, we didn’t do big ships to anywhere but the Caribbean. To do the frantic disembark with all the other pax in really interesting destinations where a few hours is not enough, is not for us. The appeal of river cruises is the less frantic vibe and smaller, immersive excursions. We’re really excited!

Hello - IF we can travel on our own when on St Lucia, we would really like to go to Anse Chastanet. I understand it may be most efficient to take a water taxi rather than drive over an hour. Is this accurate? If so - do we taxi Castries to Soufriere then Soufriere to Anse Chastanet? Are the taxis reliable and in good supply? Can you reserve? Any idea the approximate costs? Thank you.
