51 tours · €100–€541 per person · ★ 4.9
Private tours in St Thomas come in two currencies: per person for a driver with a van, per boat for a captain with a yacht. The 51 on this page were picked by hand after we read every listing and kept only operators rated 4.5★ or higher. The cheapest is a short private island drive from €100 per person; the most expensive are full day catamaran charters that sail to St John with lunch, snorkel gear and a crew of two.
Compare private tours by the total for your group, not the headline: a jeep for six at one price is cheaper than four seats on a van tour. Boat charters add a customs fee for the British Virgin Islands and a crew tip, and land tours add beach parking and chair rentals. Private drivers are guides on the road but not inside attractions, and pickup from the cruise pier or the east end resorts is stated per listing.
