143 tours in St Thomas, from €32 to €668 per person, average rating 4.9 based on 45530 reviews.
St Thomas tours are mostly on the water: catamaran sails to Buck Island and St John, snorkel trips to turtle beds, sunset cruises from Frenchman's Cove and the night kayak over glowing water that is the most reviewed tour in the US Virgin Islands. We picked 143 of them by hand, read every listing and kept only operators rated 4.5★ or higher. The cheapest is a short harbor ride or an island taxi tour from €32 per person; the most expensive are private yacht charters priced per boat for a full day.
Most St Thomas tours quote per person, but private charters and jeep tours quote per group, so check the unit before you compare. Departures split between the east end marinas at Sapphire and Red Hook and the cruise piers at Havensight and Crown Bay, and a taxi between them is paid separately. Trips that cross to the British Virgin Islands need a passport and a customs fee that is rarely in the price. The best reviewed tours in St Thomas come first below.
Viator lists 436 tours for St Thomas. We screened all of them and kept 143: rated 4.5★ or higher by 30+ travellers, real tours only, each one read and summarised by Guidekin.

For half a day, choose local sightseeing such as the Private Island Tour. Tours priced per person have a median of €118; out-of-town trips have a median duration of 6 hours. The overall duration median is 3.5 hours, with 3 hours for local tours and 6 hours for out-of-town trips. The middle half of per-person prices runs from €82 to €150. For example, the Private Island Tour is €136 per person, rated 4.97 from 361 reviews. Allow additional time to reach and leave the meeting point.

Start with operator-marked access for limited mobility: 11 of 143 tours carry that flag. For a baby, use the filter for strollers and infants, even when booking privately. 4 of 56 private tours are operator-marked accessible. Across the page, 58 of 143 accept strollers and infants, which is what the kids filter checks. That flag does not establish whether an older child can take part. For example, Discover Scuba, No Certification is €204 per person, rated 4.98 from 260 reviews; it requires swimmers and has a minimum age. For access needs, filter first, then confirm with the operator.
