34 tours · €44–€668 per person · ★ 4.9
Cruise excursions in St Thomas on this page are the tours that pick up at Havensight or Crown Bay and bring you back before the ship leaves: 34 of them, picked by hand after we read every listing and kept only operators rated 4.5★ or higher. The cheapest is a high speed harbor ride from the Charlotte Amalie pier from €44 per person; the most expensive are private island tours and boat charters booked for the ship's port hours.
Independent excursions cost less than the ship's own but all-aboard is your problem, so look for listings that state a return time and keep an hour of buffer. Tours that leave from the east end marinas add a taxi each way, which operators sometimes bundle. Two ships in port means slow roads to Magens Bay at midday, and the harbor boats run close to the pier for exactly that reason. The best reviewed St Thomas cruise excursions come first below.
