5.00Great experience, 1 day excursion from St. Thomas to St. John. Boat is a catamaran and is very spacious and comfortable. Crew of 3 was courteous, friendly and professional and open to answering all questions. Open bar was nice for those who partake. 2 hour drop-off in St, John main town was an enough time for lunch. Snorkeling following at a seemingly private cove was a stress free experience with just the right amount of time set aside. Return trip was smooth and enjoyable. Would highly recommend!
Best sail and snorkel excursion in the USVI!

5.00Just a great experience all around. The catamaran was easily the nicest I’ve had the pleasure of sailing and the crew was extremely friendly and helpful. Onboard snacks and drinks were tasty and high quality. The snorkeling was outstanding with the highest quality gear provided that I’ve seen on a snorkeling excursion. Will book again when in the USVI next time!
Awesome

5.00Captain Chris and his crew, Matt and Colette were the best! The Flying Frenchmen was a stunning boat, great amenities but the best part was the crew who made sure we had the best experience! ! We started the day in the rain from the Westin at Frenchmens Reef; landed in St John to rain but skies cleared on the return and Chris made sure we got to snorkel! You absolutely should do this excursion! 5 Star!

5.00We had an amazing experience. The boat exceeded my expectations, the cleanliness, the availability of different seats, the drinks and snacks, etc. The three crew members were top-notch as well. They were extremely friendly, funny, and really went the extra mile to make sure we had a great day. I will definitely do this excursion again when I return to St. Thomas!
Above and beyond… Refreshing!

5.00This was a very fun event with an excellent crew! I thoroughly enjoyed the full excursion. I just wish it was longer....and not just for the drinks! 😊 The three gentlemen, and I didn't catch one name, were excellent leaders who cared for each participant, worked diligently to keep things afloat, and were knowledgeable of their craft and the various sites. Very charming I may say, but i digress 😊. Snorkeling was great and ample assistance was provided. I felt very safe. This is a 5 star excursion. I would only change to a 9 to 5 itinerary with a bit more time in St. John (some of us went to Trunk Bay) and very light hor derves on the trip back (maybe lessen breakfast) I would do it again! Thanks guys!
