Overview

Depart St. Thomas or meet up at St. John for a visit to the smallest of the US Virgin Islands. Take in the history of the island as well as its majestic natural beauty on this half-day tour. See an old Danish sugar plantation, a national park, and various lookouts along the way. Start by boarding a ferry that takes you across the short 4 miles (6.4 km) of water between St. Thomas and St. John, where your tour bus awaits you. With your local guide, stop first at the Virgin Islands National Park to take in beautiful mountain vistas, impossibly blue water, and verdant coastal greenery. Enjoy the panoramic displays of white-sand beaches meeting mountain forests at your next 2 stops, Caneel Bay and Trunk Bay. At Annaberg, see the remnants of a 1780s sugar mill plantation. Wonder at the ruins of the factory, windmill, and slave quarters as you learn about the island's Danish settlers. Finish with a drive back to the ferry terminal for your cruise back to St. Thomas.

Great way to spend a couple hours on St John

Published on May, 2025

Kenneth was very knowledgeable and very polite. We were able to get out of the vehicle at the overlooks and see some amazing sites. I really enjoyed the stop at the historic sugar plantation.

Great tour of the island with the history and way of life there. Great driver - we stopped for great photo opportunities Kenneth shared more about the island at these points.

Amazing views, donkeys and more!

Published on Mar, 2025

Kenneth is an excellent tour guide! Very knowledgeable and kind. He gave us plenty of time to take pictures on the overlooks and enjoy the sugar plantation. It was very relaxing. We enjoyed beautiful views of the British Virgin Islands, St John’s beach’s and even saw some wild donkeys!! Kenneth even included an extra surprise stop on our tour which we very much appreciated! Make sure to take this tour if it’s your first time on St John!
