Great for families!

This was so fantastic with our 6 year old son. He said this was his favorite activity on our 7 day cruise. The clues were easy to follow and we had so much fun digging up the treasure. Our guide was fantastic and so attentive. 5/5 stars on this activity!

Great day on the island. The treasure hunt was fun and the clues were good for the kids. We had a blast putting the map together by collecting the pieces. Our guide was great and was accessible by walkie talkie we all times.

Was a great way to spend the afternoon in St Thomas. Clues were simple enough for 9/10 year olds to solve, but required thorough research at the museum. Very responsive getting desired treasures to keep added to our treasure chest and facilitate transportation from Crown Bay.

A Unique Experience in St. Thomas!

Looking for something different to do in St. Thomas during a cruise ship stop. The Tropical Treasure Hunt was amazing! They pay attention to all of the details, big and small. We were given a canvas bag full of items to help solve our clues. This wasn’t a routine scavenger hunt. The people there to give clues along the was were friendly and helpful. The actual discovery of the treasure was something my family won’t forget. Our kids knew there would be a treasure, but they didn’t realize they would work for it. It was expertly buried in a quiet part of the beach. They had a blast digging it out. The prizes inside were quality. I will definitely be booking another hunt in the future.
