About this tour

This is a fully private Jeep experience—never shared with strangers—designed for travelers who want to see the real St. Thomas, not just the typical tour stops.

We pick you up anywhere on the island—hotels, Airbnbs, cruise ports, or private residences—and build the day around your group.

Go beyond the crowded routes as we take you down dirt backroads to secluded beaches, short scenic trails leading to hidden coves, historic plantation ruins, and panoramic overlooks most visitors never reach.

Your open-air Jeep means no glass, no bus windows—just unobstructed views, island breeze, and a more immersive experience at every stop.

Because this is a private tour, the pace is entirely up to you. Spend more time at the beach, focus on sightseeing, or mix it all together—we tailor the experience in real time.

For cruise guests, we carefully plan your day around your ship schedule and guarantee a smooth, on time return to port.

This isn’t just a tour—it’s your own custom island adventure.
