Excellent Island Tour – Informative and Well Organized - Great tour! Our guide was knowledgeable and informative, giving us a real sense of the island and its history. It was interesting to learn about the local custom of driving on the opposite side of the road. Snacks and drinks (soda and water) were provided at no extra charge, which was a nice touch. The guide even contacted us the night before to confirm our hotel pickup time. Overall, well worth the cost!

Great way to spend a couple hours on St John - Kenneth was very knowledgeable and very polite. We were able to get out of the vehicle at the overlooks and see some amazing sites. I really enjoyed the stop at the historic sugar plantation.

Amazing views, donkeys and more! - Kenneth is an excellent tour guide! Very knowledgeable and kind. He gave us plenty of time to take pictures on the overlooks and enjoy the sugar plantation. It was very relaxing. We enjoyed beautiful views of the British Virgin Islands, St John’s beach’s and even saw some wild donkeys!! Kenneth even included an extra surprise stop on our tour which we very much appreciated! Make sure to take this tour if it’s your first time on St John!
