What a fabulous day boating in the BVI with friends! - Great day touring the BVi on Catzilla with some fabulous friends and our fantastic Captain Joe! Boat was comfortable and clean and accommodated our party well. Captain was extremely flexible and accommodating and took us to some amazing spots. Highly recommend Love City Excursions..

A great day in paradise - A spectacular day. We had booked trip on Saturday but Katie contacted us 2 days prior advising the weather would be best on Friday and they had availability to move us. So glad we did - we were able ti make it to the Baths/Virgin Gorda. From there Captain Luke gave us many options and we headed out to Sandy Soit and a great lunch spot Foxys Taboo highly recommend. Ended our day at Soggy Dollar and was just a really fun day. Captain Luke was great and really enjoyed getting to know him. Thank you! Can’t wait to come back! (Carol/Ed/Megan/Dave). Fin & Wyatt 😎

Best New Years Eve Experience in US and British VI - We spent New Years Eve enjoying a full day excursion with Love City and it was incredible. We enjoyed our first visit to the British Virgin Islands and our captain, Abbie, took us anywhere we wanted to visit. We snorkeled at Diamond Reef, visited Virgin Gorda, snorkeled over a 19th century shipwreck, and saw a multitude of colorful fish and even saw a barracuda. We highly recommend Love City Excursions and would be thrilled to hire them again.

Amazing, Amazing BVI and Baths trip! - Our wedding party joined Ben on a private British Virgin Islands tour. He was professional, knowledgeable and a lot of fun interacting with us. Ben made great recommendations of where to go and let us choose ultimately what we wanted to do. The boat was well cared for and extremely clean. I would highly recommend!

Core memories made - Top five day. Core memories made! It was just my husband and I on Catzilla with Captain Abbie. We were a bit apprehensive because the forecast wasn’t awesome. The first few minutes were spent bouncing through rough waters with rain pelting our face. But it was still so fun! Thankfully the sun came out shortly after and surprised us with a beautiful, breezy day. The whole day was everything we had hoped for. We laid out a rough outline of what we wanted the day to look like and Abbie delivered. The best snorkeling of our lives. Chicken Roti and jumps off Willie T…the best! A surprise jaunt around Sandy Spit with jaw dropping scenery. Ended the day at JVD throwing the football in the waves. So. Much. Fun. Thank you, Captain Abbie, for hosting an unforgettable day for us. And for sharing stories of your Jaguar-loving life.

Love City Excursions 5 STARS - Our 7th and 8th time using Love City Excursions over the years to St. John. No need to look anywhere else. Captain Abbie was incredible once again to be with for our full day charter and 1/2 day charter the following day. Every Captain we have had on all of our adventures have been great to be with. Congrats to Joe and Katie who have built an incredible team. You, your family and or friends will have a great day exploring the USVI and BVI's.

Amazing day island hopping and snorkeling! - This is our second day trip on the Silver Coral. Joe and Taylor went above and beyond ensuring our family of 10 had a memorable trip. They helped us plan out our day and had great suggestions on stops that met what we were looking for. If you have a large group this is the boat to take! There are a lot of different seating options, plenty of shade and enough room for everyone to spread out. Thank you!

A must do while on St John - We spent a full day on the Catzilla with Captain Joe. We toured the Spanish Baths, jumped off Willy T’s barge, beach walked Sand Spit, and still had time for a painkiller from Soggy Dollar on Jost Van Dyke. It was an amazing day. Wonderful ship and captain.

Baths/Jost Van Dyke - Our family had such a great time on our day cruise from St. John to the BVIs. Captain Jeremey took us to the Baths and then Jost. We had a four month old with us and Jeremy lifted her out of the water at Jost so she didn't get wet. He was very informative on the trip and let us plan our itinerary. He was able to get us back to St. John so we didn't have to wait in line at customs at all. I highly recommend going on the Catzilla tour.

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!!!
