The Story Behind Special K Tours

Every great business has a story — and ours began with a nickname and a smile.

The name “Special K” was given to me by a couple I met while working at Sugar Beach Resort in St. Lucia. I wasn’t employed by the resort directly — I was one of the first private drivers to pick them up when they arrived at the property. After I dropped them off at their villa to meet their butler, I offered them a personal tour of the resort grounds, which stretch over 100 acres of stunning beauty.

Over the course of their stay, I picked them up a few more times, along with other guests. But before the couple left the island, they made a special request: they wanted me to be their driver one last time.

That day, they said something I’ll never forget:
“You’re one of a kind, and since your name starts with K, we’re calling you Special K! We’ve never had a driver who made us feel so welcome, so happy.”

They even wrote a glowing review to Sugar Beach Resort, sharing the nickname they gave me and telling the team that none of the other drivers compared.

From That Moment On, Special K Tours Was Born
Fueled by that meaningful connection and my love for showing off the beauty of St. Lucia, I decided to turn that nickname into something more. For over 18 years, Special K Tours has proudly served travelers from all over the world — offering private taxi service, airport transfers, land and sea tours, and unforgettable island experiences with genuine care and island-style hospitality.

At Special K Tours, you’re not just booking a ride — you’re becoming part of our story. Let us show you the heart of St. Lucia, the same way we’ve been doing since the day one happy couple said,

“You’re the best driver we’ve ever had.”
