We had a great experience on the boat. It was easy to find the meeting place. Anthony was awesome as a guide and driver. He made it interesting and so much fun. He was interactive with us. We had the boat to ourselves which made it even more special!

We booked through TripAdvisor a few weeks ago. Our time was adjusted but it worked in our favor since we only had 5 of us to be spoiled by Anthony, our Captain for our ride! He was definitely knowledgeable and pointed out key facts about St Thomas while giving us many fast thrill rides during our trip! It was a great way to spend some time in St Thomas while allowing us plenty of time to enjoy the Haven shopping area. Prepare to get wet, however, there is the option to lock up your belongings securely before the ride. Thanks, Anthony, for the wonderful memories which we were also able to capture on video for an additional optional fee ($45)! Definitely worth the experience!!

Great time! Anthony was an awesome guide. We learned about the island, and had a lot of fun! I was worried it might make me sea sick, but noone on our boat had any issues. Great way to cool down on a hot day!

Excellent quick port excursion tour. Was a quick 10 min walk from cruise port. They were very courteous and even waited for the late arrivals. YOU WILL GET WET ! Dress appropriately. Our Capt/Guide was very informative and gave us warnings before the splash. I wasn’t paying attention for th first one so I tweeked my back …no worries it healed, thanks for the fun memories Capt Chris !

"You better drive this boat Anthony," is what I yelled throughout the entire ride!! My 15yo daughter and I had a BLAST!! Don't think you are safe from a good soaking because...You ain't.

What an incredible jet boat ride! 🌊🚤 From the moment we took off, the energy was nonstop fun. The captain was not only extremely skilled but also super friendly and engaging, making sure everyone felt safe while still giving us the thrill we came for. Between the sharp turns, bursts of speed, and perfectly timed spins, we were laughing the entire time—and yes, completely soaked by the end! 😄💦 The captain clearly knew exactly how to make the ride exciting while keeping it smooth and controlled. If you’re looking for a fun, high-energy adventure on the water, this is absolutely the ride to take. Huge thanks to the captain for making it such a memorable experience. We had an absolute blast!

Did the high speed jet boat ride with Crazy Chris lol. It was so fun! We got drenched and learned a little about the island as well. 10/10 would recommend if you like an adrenaline rush/ don’t have a weak stomach lol

It was our anniversary. The ride was canceled by the operator the same day of our ride due to not enough bookings. Leaving us nothing to do for our special day and the reply was “you have time to find something else to do”. Not so. And no offer to make it up to us with another time or day.

It’s fun being out on the water, you will get wet so dress for the occasion. The tour guide does a great job ensuring your personal belongings are secured and safe. The Speed Boat tour is a lot, the Captain will make various turns so everyone has a safe but a lot of fun!
