There is no better way to enjoy your visit to the island than being in charge of your own time and not being crammed into a vehicle with others and on a driver's timeline or having a guide rushing you. With Island Buggy Excursions, we will give you our suggested sites to visit on either the west end or east end of the island. Or we can customize your excursion based on sites you're interested in. It is then up to you to determine how long you stay at each stop. You'll enjoy driving one of the coolest vehicles on the island. Enjoy the fresh air and all of the beautiful sites. It will be a day you and yours will never forget. Please bring towels if you plan on dipping in one or more than one of the beautiful beaches.

5.00Great experience from the check in process to the communications throughout the excursion . Absolutely the best way to tour the island. We were unfamiliar with where to visit but this was made very easy with the self guided tour provided in the buggy. Interesting how many people along the way were taking pictures of this unique excursion.
Don’t hesitate! Book it!

5.00Liston and Jordan are beyond amazing!! Both so extremely helpful and personable! You will not regret booking the island buggy for the day! They will take you to wherever you want to go with constant communication of where you’re going and perfect directions or they can give you favorite places to go on the island! The buggies are so nice. Clean, new and comfortable and just a fun way to enjoy a very full day in St. Thomas! Couldn’t recommend them more. One of our most favorite memories of st. Thomas and we’ve been there many times!
Perfect way to see St....

5.00Perfect way to see St. Thomas! Liston was incredible - texting places to see all day and recommending coffee stops and lunch! Well worth it!
Truly The Best Buggy Experience We NEVER had!!!

5.00We were not able to take the tour due to the lack of availability of buggies. John, the owner of the business called us the night before to explain what had occurred and how upset he was . If I remember correctly, he had to cancel 6 couples because he had ordered new buggies and they were promised delivery over and over again by the vendor. I felt bad for him because he was so upset and tried everything within his power to make it right for us. . . . and he DID. He found us another vendor (Meatball) who took us on a private tour of St. Thomas in his jeep to parts that we would have never found or been able to get into without him being with us personally. It was a wonderful and event filled day. On top of that - it saved us $100. The fact that John took ownership of the problem and didn't just leave us hanging - gets him and his business a 10 star rating in my view. THANK YOU JOHN!
Truly Unique Adventure in St. Thomas on Your OWN Schedule!

5.00We can't recommend this activity enough! 5 star all the way from booking & communication, to vehicle, to support, we'll never forget it. Liston was our virtual guide and was a wonderful host. You can pick up and drop off at either of the cruise terminals, just let them know. We loved it as it allowed us to visit the many beaches and sites we wanted, on our own time- priceless. We let Liston know our interests and he guided us around the island from stop to stop on our phone. He included chairs and umbrella in the backseat as there was just us two. He took us to some great local places you don't read about, and you can't beat the views and weather in this cute buggy. I think if you have younger ones, they could fit in back seat, but it is really small but we're large at 6' and 5'8 and it accommodated us perfectly. So fun, you won't regret it - worth every penny as it was a splurge for us and our ship was only there until 2p so we saw and experienced a bunch, not rushed, in a short amount of time. Thank you Liston - you were amazing!!

5.00All I can say is if you're coming to st Thomas DO THIS. Did buggy rental in Santorini and this was much better. New buggy and were able to have radio and being able to text with john(owner) directly and be given next place to check out was fantastic, just type in address on GPS on phone and go there rather then trying to figure out where to go. New in business and definitely good start. Jordan was there cleaning the buggy when we got there. Meeting point was walking distance from our port and liston was there to greet us when we got back. We will be back to this beautiful island and I will not even have to bother looking because I know I will be renting from John. Once again if you're coming to St Thomas do yourself a favor and rent a buggy from island buggy rentals and enjoy this beautiful place with points of interest that they tell you where to go. David
Island Buggys for the WIN

5.00I wanted to take a moment to share our remarkable experience with Island Buggy during our recent trip to St. Thomas. From the moment we booked our vehicle, the communication was outstanding. We received immediate confirmation and regular updates, which put us at ease as we prepared for our journey. Upon arrival, we were fortunate to be assisted by Liston, who had our buggy ready as soon as we disembarked from the cruise ship. Liston truly went above and beyond. He provided us with an itinerary that allowed us to maximize our time on the island. Through thoughtful text messages, he guided us from one incredible stop to another, ensuring we made the most of our excursion. His knowledge of the area and navigation help via GPS made our adventure seamless. Additionally, he recommended a fantastic restaurant along the way, which was a highlight of our day. We genuinely appreciate Liston’s assistance and the exceptional service from Island Buggy. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience in St. Thomas.
