Private Tour
Explore St. John, Beaches and National Park Private Tour
Overview
Available languages
3 hours
Mobile ticket
Explore St. John with a longtime resident! This private tour is conducted in a four-door Jeep Wrangler, so it is limited to four guests. (We do not go off-roading; I simply use a Jeep due to the island's steep roads.) I do not combine groups, so this tour will be tailored specifically for you & your group.
We will spend a considerable amount of time in the Virgin Islands National Park where we will sightsee, check out the beaches, historical sites & more. We will take a quick ride over to Coral Bay and will hopefully see some donkeys along the way. There is an opportunity to stop for cocktails at a tiki bar or the popular Windmill Bar, or even a little snack. I can also show you some secret spots where the sea turtles are commonly seen.
I have a five-star rating on TripAdvisor & I promise this will be the best day of your vacation!
*If you are visiting from St. Thomas, you can take the 830am ferry for the 9am start time, and the noon ferry for the 1230pm start time.*

5.00Jenn was an amazing and knowledgeable guide around an absolutely beautiful Caribbean island! We especially came to see Virgin Islands National Park, and this tour did exactly that. We had great communication before the tour, and Jenn was so nice and personable. Thank you Jenn for a wonderful day!

5.00Jen was amazing! Was taking a risk by not booking an excursion through our cruise but I’m sure glad we didn’t! She picks you up and discusses what you want to see, is so friendly, and knowledgable. Can’t wait to come back to St. John..what an amazing place!
Great tour

Outstanding tour of St. John

5.00Jen was absolutely fantastic! As a long time transplant to St. John, she knows the community well, but also brought an insightful outsider’s perspective to the tour - she understood what we were interested in and why. She showed us fantastic views and shared a deep knowledge of the history of the island. She was engaging, personable, and responsive to our particular interests. She is also an excellent driver on the pretty challenging roads.
Hands down, best 1/2 day on St John

10/10 Great Way to See the Island!

5.00I can't say enough wonderful things about Jenn and this island tour! Jenn is so knowledgeable about all things St. John - my daughter (10) thought everything was so interesting to hear about along the way. This is a great way to see the island without worrying about driving, road conditions, etc. Jenn had all the amenities as well - beach chairs, floaties, cooler w/ice and water. We never would have seen all the sights that we did with Jenn if we had gone on our own. I highly recommend this tour!
