Best day! - We had an amazing time and I cannot recommend Captain Xande more! We lived on Stj for ten years and was nervous when our captain was someone we didn’t know, but he blew us away with how great he was with the kids, and taking us to amazing snorkeling spots- made our day the best one we had on our vacation!! Thank you!!!

CatZilla BVI Private Tour was fantastic - The BVI Private Tour was the highlight of our trip. Captain Luke was a fantastic host. The company was able to accomodate us last minute - due to weather issues the previous day.

Best Vacation Experience Ever!!! - Capt. Ben and First Mate, Cheyenne, were professional, knowledgeable, and personable and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and welcome. We loved the first trip to Norman Island and Jost Van Dyke so much on Wednesday that we booked with them again on Friday to Virgin Gorda, and again for a sea transfer from St. John to Crown Bay St. Thomas. To say Love City Excursions made our 40th anniversary trip the best, would be an understatement because there are no words to visualize the joy my family and I experienced. The food, drinks, and the boat were first class. The snorkeling equipment fit every one of our 10 family members. We even had our 2-year-old granddaughter with us and she is was well cared for and everyone's safety was the crew's priority. We recommend

Great Day with Love City Excursions - We had a great day boating around the BVIs yesterday with Love City Excursions and Captain Abbie. Thank you Abbie for all of your great ideas to tailor the excursion to fit our group. Plus the beers were ice cold and the Painkillers were delicious. Abbie took good care of us; she is professional, but also fun and interesting. We really enjoyed our day…so we’re going out with Abbie again this Friday!

Fun boat charter with Catzilla and Love City Excursions - Went out with Catzilla and captain Abbie on a wonderful full day bvi trip. The boat was very spacious for the 4 of us and in tip top shape. Abbie was an excellent captain, the perfect combination of fun and skill. The seas were rough that day but Abbie Was able to find us an excellent snorkel spot that was perfect for the conditions that day. Dealing with Katie the owner of Catzilla was enjoyable and easy. We’re frequent visitors to STJ and will be choosing Catzilla for our next boat charter.

BEST Day of your Vacay!!! - 10/10 recommend booking your next boat day with Love City Excursions!!! It was hands down the best day of our trip. Katie was super helpful when booking our trip. She took the time to explain everything and listened to what our group wanted to do so we could plan the perfect day-- a combination of snorkeling, bar and beach hopping. Captain Luke was fantastic with our family. He's very professional, fun, and knowledgeable of the islands. If you have your passports, it's worth booking the day trip to check out the BVI. Thanks for a great day, CatZilla & crew!!

Wonderful day on the boat! - Katie,who arranged the trip, was very nice as was Capt Luke who gave good info and took us to some beautiful areas, coves and beaches. We enjoyed snorkeling and had lunch on a restaurant in the water. We were two couples and enjoyed the day. This was our third day trip with Love City Excursions and we will be back!
