Our verdict
This tour fits a typical St. Thomas call (8:00 am–4:30 pm). It runs 6 h; ashore by 8:20 am, you can start by 8:30 am and be back at the gangway around 2:40 pm — 50 min to spare on top of a 1 h safety margin.
Rule of thumb: it keeps the safety margin as long as all aboard is 3:40 pm or later. On a short call (ship leaving by 2:00 pm) skip it or ask for the first departure.
The operator picks up at the cruise port (it is on their pickup list), so the trip to the start point is part of the tour. We allow 10 min to walk off and find the pickup; look for the ground-transportation area outside Havensight (West Indian Company dock, WICO).
Among the 346 St. Thomas shore excursions we track, this is one of the longer ones (the median runs 3 h); 82% of them fit a typical call.
Computed from the tour's published duration, the distance from the cruise pier to its start point and the typical St. Thomas call. Adjust your ship's times above to recheck.
