Driver was very knowledgeable about the island and made the ride fun. Had the famous Mountain top banana daiquiri. Great views.
I was pickup from my resort. The tour guide was nice, professional, timely and informative. I truly enjoyed the tour. This is a top tier experience.
Bring a swim suit..., there will be a 2 hour lay over at the beach, there is a bar to purchase drinks and a place to purchase food
We were picked up on time at port but had to pick several other people not from cruise with several other stops. Waiting each time. Never checked us in. Thought we were going up to top, view, which we did but spent more time picking up several people around St Thomas and having to have driver go look for them.
We booked this tour on our cruise - we were very excited to see St Thomas and hear about it from our guide. We were booked for 1030 am. Our guide showed up late and seemed very confused about who was supposed to be on the tour. There was another group waiting who had booked for 11 so he decided to take both groups together since he was already late. After leaving the cruise port- he decided that he had forgotten someone so we had to go back . It ended up that the person he ‘forgot’ was already on the bus. At this point it was after 11 am. He then proceeded to drive to a parking lot to pick up more people who we found out were supposed to be picked up 15 minutes prior to when we were picked up. So the 1030 tour didn’t actually start till 1120 am. We then raced up the mountain - it was terrifying - and were told that we had a minimal amount of time to be there. When my sister - who had a broken foot- tried to get up the steps ahead of the group he embarrassed her in front of the whole group like she was a child. When we expressed concern about getting back to our ship on time he rolled his eyes at us and he then rushed through the rest of the tour and dropped us off before it was over. We have used Trip Advisor and Viator on several occasions and were always happy with our experiences- this tour through Godfrey tours was an awful, disappointing experience and we will never take a chance on using this company again. Trip Advisor won’t compensate for our miserable experience and that says a lot about how they feel about their customers. Do not book this tour. It’s not well organized and you will not get your money’s worth.
We pre booked through viator and paid in full for a sight seeing tour. On the day of the tour we waited over 30 minutes but no one showed. Whem we called viator and they checked on the status the provider reported they didnt show any tours booked for the day. Someone definitely dropped the ball with communication.. i will say viator was easy to work with and provided a full refund for the tour that never was.
10/10 Recommend! Was our 1st time in St. Thomas so this was very informative! Do the 6hr tour, take your swimsuit, towel . You get to pick between 2 different ⛱️beaches and stay for 2 hours and they come back and get you.
Was over 20min late no apologies felt rushed to get on the boat hit a fence going into the shopping district to pick people up waited 15min went to top of mountain thought (as did a few people on the tour) that we got the famous banana daquai included in the tour but was told we had 25 minutes there tour guy spoke for 15 of it then felt rushed to get back on the bus which he then drove pretty fast stopped a few places on the road with cars behinds us for pictures went to a dodgie parking lot stopped again for 10 min he spoke then hurried us back on the bus was suppose to be a drive by beach but we went in and was there for 15min some people hopped off and some people from another bus hopped on then dropped but to the bus didnt see the pirates things like I thought (yes was suppose to just be a drive by) if we did u couldn't here thr bus driver as he was very mufflely drinks n small.packet chips was about the only good thing about this tour if i could get money back i would but all I have to remind me is a saw back from bad shocks on the back of the bus. We may have got on a bad day but I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS TOUR AT ALL
I booked this trip for my last day on the island before a late-afternoon flight home. The driver/tour guide graciously picked me up at a local resort and dropped me off at the airport at the end of the tour. We began in Charlotte Amelia with a brief walking/ orientation tour. We had about 45 minutes to explore on our own. I opted to visit the fascinating fort (entrance fee not included.) After that, we drove around the island, stopped at scenic overlooks and the mountain top shopping center. During our ride in an open trolley, our driver shared myriad facts about St. Thomas—history, geography, economy, people, culture. He also provided snacks along the way. It was a great way to spend my last afternoon on St. Thomas.
If you’re looking for a nice outing seeing great views and also some history of the island then look no further than Godfrey Tours. Great service and hospitality as well as a very knowledgeable guide.
