Driver was very knowledgeable about the island and made the ride fun. Had the famous Mountain top banana daiquiri. Great views.

We were picked up on time at port but had to pick several other people not from cruise with several other stops. Waiting each time. Never checked us in. Thought we were going up to top, view, which we did but spent more time picking up several people around St Thomas and having to have driver go look for them.

We pre booked through viator and paid in full for a sight seeing tour. On the day of the tour we waited over 30 minutes but no one showed. Whem we called viator and they checked on the status the provider reported they didnt show any tours booked for the day. Someone definitely dropped the ball with communication.. i will say viator was easy to work with and provided a full refund for the tour that never was.

Was over 20min late no apologies felt rushed to get on the boat hit a fence going into the shopping district to pick people up waited 15min went to top of mountain thought (as did a few people on the tour) that we got the famous banana daquai included in the tour but was told we had 25 minutes there tour guy spoke for 15 of it then felt rushed to get back on the bus which he then drove pretty fast stopped a few places on the road with cars behinds us for pictures went to a dodgie parking lot stopped again for 10 min he spoke then hurried us back on the bus was suppose to be a drive by beach but we went in and was there for 15min some people hopped off and some people from another bus hopped on then dropped but to the bus didnt see the pirates things like I thought (yes was suppose to just be a drive by) if we did u couldn't here thr bus driver as he was very mufflely drinks n small.packet chips was about the only good thing about this tour if i could get money back i would but all I have to remind me is a saw back from bad shocks on the back of the bus. We may have got on a bad day but I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS TOUR AT ALL

Pickup/dropoff was easy - Godfrey called in advance to arrange early pickup then dropped us off downtown. Godfrey was very knowledgeable, informative & helpful. Affordable.
Sharitta_B, May 2026
Godfrey was very knowledgeable about every site on the island. He even went out of his way to make sure my husband and I was comfortable.

It was a beautiful view but the tour operator texted us at two A.M. the night before to change the time. We were originally supposed to meet at 1030 A.M. as the ticket state. We got a text in the middle of the night stating that instead we were starting at 9:30 am. Very very disappointed. In this last minute Poor communication and it’s a good thing that we woke up early instead of sleeping it until our alarm went off or we would’ve missed the tour and then I would have been very angry and demanding money back.

Greg_M, Apr 2026
Very good overview of island. Beautiful views. Driver/guide was excellent/informative. Would highly recommend if you want to just go around the island and see the sights.
Joan_L, Mar 2026
Hard to hear the guide in the vehicle due to traffic and trucks. On a positive side, our guide was very informative and took his time answering guest questions.
Doug_B, Mar 2026
Well organized tour by Godfrey Tours. Godfrey didn’t have enough of his own vehicles so used a taxi company who’s vehicle needed some work and the PA System didn’t work!
Mercedes_C, Mar 2026
The driver was very knowledgeable and the locations we went to gave us a great view of the island. The hosts picked us up at our resort which was great and convenient. The reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is that it was described as a 2.5 hour tour and it lasted for 4 hours! We hadn’t planned to spend the better part of a lovely day driving around.
Erica_O, Mar 2026
Nice tour. They have a longer and shorter option. Snacks and water provided . Tour guide very knowledgeable.
Elizabeth_T, Mar 2026

Rpsteger, Feb 2026
The tour guide was very knowledgeable. We got to see much of the Island and learn about its history.
Kathy_F, Feb 2026
Hard to hear driver/guide due to traffic nice but otherwise a good tour. Drinks and chips were provided which was a good surprise. Definitely worth the money!

The tour was OKAY. The tour quide was 20 minutes late. He had a lot of issues trying to figure out who was to be on the tour. The tour turned out to be more of a transportation for people wanting to shop or go to the beach. It was confusing for everyone. We had 10 minutes to shop downtown and picked up more people at that location. We proceeded to the top of St Thomas. The guide took us thru the store to get to the overlook. We had some time to shop or get a drink. The tour guide offered us water, soda and chips. A nice surprise since we had been on the bus for over 2 1/2 hours. We then proceeded to the beach for those going to the beach Several people opted not to stay at the beach which I think was due to the confusion the tour guide had if they would even get a ride back to the ship. Driver seemed to point out a lot of churches but not really any sights except for the fort which we were given an opportunity to see but for only 5 minutes. The driver didn't drop us off at the ship but at the shopping area close by. He needed to back downtown to drop off more people. It was 4 1/2 hour bus tour instead of 2 1/2.
barb_g, Feb 2026
The driver and his superior seemed to be unorganized. People were put on with us that were on a 6-hour tour and we were on a 2-1/2 hour tour. We were supposed to have an hour's shopping experience but had 10 minutes. then we sat there quite a while they tried to figure out who were on our tour bus. However, the driver was a good driver and knew his island.
Prentiss_H, Feb 2026
It ws a great tour, me and my niece love it. The tour guide person was great. Drive good in the rain up and down to high mountain
Delores_C, Feb 2026
Very informative. The tour guide gave an excellent presentation regarding St. Thomas and the surrounding islands.
Nikki_S, Jan 2026
Our communication on meeting our guide was a little confusing at first. Our driver was very friendly and polite, but we had difficulty hearing him
We saw everything mentioned in the description but afterwards, we learned that an open air transportation is not for us. A lot of street noise made it difficult for us to hear our driver

This is supposed to be a Godfrey travel and trip should be on their own Godfrey tour bus, but instead their tour guide just called another third party (name was Love Cab) tour bus/truck. Tour guide told our driver what we all had purchased, not all passenger had the same itinerary, some had 2.5 hour tour some had 4.5 hour tour, driver nodded and we took off. Only destination that was according to the described locations is the high lookout point, rest of the stops were all over the place, some of the other travelers requested to be dropped off at their hotel which was on the other side of island, so our 2.5 hour trip turned into a 4-5 hour trip due to driver just going wherever everyone else told him to go and drop them off. Some of the stops like shopping and beach we never stopped there because once again we were on the other side of island dropping off passengers, even though everyone was supposed to be picked up and dropped off at the same location. Oh and guide...? Don't even bother with guide, our driver pointed out 2-3 attractions at most on the way and it was hardly understandable due to his accent. This tour is NOT what it says in the description, its whatever you want it to be if you have a strong voice and can convince the driver to go to the places you want or need.
Patricia_E, Jan 2026
Guide was late then had to go to atm to pay port fee. Then drove around to pick up 2 more people. Used them 20 years ago at the last minute and thought it was great.

We have been on a lot of Viator tours and have never had a problem before. To start the bus showed up 10 minutes late and then went to a flea market (that was not on the schedule) to shop for 45 minutes. We left there left 20 minutes late and on a different bus with different driver. The speaker system on the bus was so bad that you could not understand anything the driver said. We stopped at the top of the island but again left 20 minutes late after another 25 minutes of shopping. We stopped at Drakes seat but the driver spent 10 minutes going thru the list of passengers (which should have done before we ever started). Found out 3 of the passengers were supposed to be on the 4 hour beach tour not our island tour. He pulled into a scenic overlook and hit a parked car. We never saw Bluebeards castle. We arrived back at the cruise dock 2 hours late on a 2 1/2 hour tour. We have asked for a refund.
Linda_C, Jan 2026
Our driver was very informative and took us to places where we could get the very best views of the island. We saw the historic buildings in town, then went to the mountain top to see the view from the top. There is a huge gift shop with a bar there plus a great viewing platform. Our driver (sorry, I forgot his name) provided us with chips and water or soft drinks while we were touring.

This was not well organized, and the 2 1/2-hour sightseeing ended up being 4 1/2 hours, with most of the time waiting for another bus or shopping, which we did not want. If we wanted to go shopping, we would have signed up for another tour that included shopping. After being picked up, we drove to the parking lot of an outdoor shopping market and then waited for almost an hour waiting for a second bus to pick us up. The stops described in the write-up did not sound like the places we ended up. The driver did talk, but we could not hear it. Some of the people on our bus said they were to be taken to the beach for swimming, but since it was late in the day already, they had to be back at their ship that had a 3 pm return time and they wouldn't have made it. Overall, this was a horrid tour and we should have our fees refunded. I have taken Viators before and have always been satisfied. This is the first time that it was not good at all.

Hit all the tourist traps. Beautiful views. Good commentary from the driver/guide. Vehicle had no shock absorbers.
Gale_W, Jan 2026
Our 2 1/2 tour took 4 hours. If you plan this trip, do not plan anything else in the afternoon. We had other plans and we were in a huge time crunch to get back when the 2 1/2 turned into four.
