Air-conditioned transport, beach chairs and water are included; priced per group, with child seats for children five and under supplied by you. 5 from 112 reviews at €359 per group/vehicle for 3h. In our comparison: #6 of 24 in St John Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below). ## Overview Explore St. John with a longtime resident! This private tour is conducted in a four-door Jeep Wrangler, so it is limited to four guests. (We do not go off-roading; I simply use a Jeep due to the island's steep roads.) I do not combine groups, so this tour will be tailored specifically for you & your group. We will spend a considerable amount of time in the Virgin Islands National Park where we will sightsee, check out the beaches, historical sites & more. We will take a quick ride over to Coral Bay and will hopefully see some donkeys along the way. There is an opportunity to stop for cocktails at a tiki bar or the popular Windmill Bar, or even a little snack. I can also show you some secret spots where the sea turtles are commonly seen. I have a five-star rating on TripAdvisor & I promise this will be the best day of your vacation! *If you are visiting from St. Thomas, you can take the 830am ferry for the 9am start time, and the noon ferry for the 1230pm start time.* ## Before you book - Hotel pickup: no car needed - Starts 09:00, 12:30: 2 departures a day - Food included: see what is included - Strollers OK: infants accepted - Non-refundable: no free cancellation **Pickup:** Hotel pickup included ## Key facts - Price: from €359 per group/vehicle - Duration: 3h - Rating: 5.0/5 from 112 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Operator: Explore STJ - Group: Private tour, your party only - Guide languages: English - Start times: 09:00, 12:30 - Booking: Instant confirmation, mobile ticket - Price checked on Viator: 2026-10-06 ## Reviews 5.0 from 112 ratings on Guidekin, Viator & Tripadvisor. 100% of ratings with a star breakdown are 4 or 5 stars: 112 of 112. - 5 stars: 112 (100%) - 4 stars: 0 (0%) - 3 stars: 0 (0%) - 2 stars: 0 (0%) - 1 star: 0 (0%) ## What's included - Private transportation - Air-conditioned vehicle - Beach chairs are provided should you choose to spend some time on the beach. - Bottled water and ice is provided.
