What To Expect
Charlotte Amalie
Charlotte Amalie, the capital and largest city of the U.S. Virgin Islands, situated on St. Thomas was founded in 1666 as Taphus, it was renamed in 1691 after Danish queen Charlotte Amalie. The city boasts a deep-water harbor that was historically a pirate haven and is now a major cruise ship port, receiving over 1.5 million passengers annually. Historically, the area was inhabited by Caribs, Arawaks, Ciboney and Taíno native peoples before Columbus arrived in 1493. The city features Danish colonial architecture and landmarks such as St. Thomas Synagogue, Frederick Lutheran Church, Blackbeard's Castle, Bluebeards Castle and Fort Christian. A copy of the Liberty Bell and freed slave blowing a conch shell are in Emancipation Park, which is both a source of national pride and a tourist attraction.
Brewer's Bay
Brewers Bay - Brewers Bay is a gem hidden in plain sight. Its sun-drenched shore is presided over by lush green hills on the right, and the University of the Virgin Islands campus on the left. It’s one of the calmest beaches on St. Thomas and the water is clear as crystal. It is a favorite for Green Sea Turtles and Hawksbill Turtles. The seafloor is mostly sand, and it deepens gradually providing an easy sloped entry. The combination of clarity, calmness and a sandy bottom make it great for wading and swimming.

5.00We had such a unique adventure with Scott. You can tell him what kind of a private tour you want and he will customize it for you . He took us in the jeep kind of off the beaten path to a secluded beach and it was only us! It was wonderful! Highly recommended!
Scott was absolutely...

5.00Scott was absolutely amazing! We were able to travel all around the island and visit beautiful, secluded beaches we never would have found on our own. The experience felt very personal and relaxed, and Scott’s knowledge of the island made the day even better. Seeing sea turtles and stingrays was the highlight of an already incredible tour. This was truly one of the best experiences of our trip, and we couldn’t recommend Scott enough!
The best rum punch of our trip!

5.00This was a fun way to explore St Thomas. The weather was not conducive to an open top but the rain didn’t stop us. First Scott ticked off all the touristy hot spots showing us stunning views across the islands before taking us to a fabulous beach. He had thought of everything - chairs, noodles, snorkelling gear, and the best rum punch of the trip! The shallow beach lined with palm trees was in front of a hotel, with amazing fish and coral. For a while I was even snorkelling above a ray! We then grabbed lunch at the nearby cafe before continuing our trip down a rough track to a deserted beach. It was a great day out and split between four of us, great value for money. Highly recommend
An amazing day on the island

5.00Scott was a great guide. He took us to fantastic places that even some locals don’t know about. Great secret beaches, sea turtles, view points… And the Jeep is all open to the fresh air😀 Highly recommended!!!
Totally worth it!

5.00This was a great excursion. Scott Was amazing and very informative. There was a mix up at which port our ship docked with a last minute change. I called them at pick up time they rerouted, and were there within ten minutes. We got to swim on a private beach with just my wife and myself, that alone was worth the trip. Best rum punch I had on the island!!
Great Experience

5.00Scott was amazing. He made sure we got a great feel for the island. He showed us both the tourist areas as well as hidden gems. He never rushed us and fully listened to places we wanted to see. We will absolutely use them again when we return.
Great tour!
