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.

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.*
