Great experience

Great tour! Easy to find location, super friendly and helpful staff. Small sized tour (about 8 in total including us) that lasted about 2h. Our guide was Perez and he knew so much about the area, animals, and the island overall. Definitely recommend!!!

First Time Kayakers

Amazing Tour Guide, Perez. Took care of me and my family. Eased our fears and hesitations because we were first time kayakers. So much fun! So informative and a great workout. I would definitely recommend!

Perez Taxi Con

The kayaking trip was great, but don't let Perez call you a taxi. We should have known better when the taxi sign was missing, but Perez seemed like a good guy. His friend was a rip off artist charging two and a half times the official rate. Not sure what Perez said in Creole to him right before we left, but shame on him for setting us up.

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the kayaking portion of the tour. We’d like to clarify that Virgin Islands Ecotours does not set taxi rates, and does not receive compensation from taxi drivers. When requested, our guides are happy to call a taxi for guests as a courtesy, but transportation services operate independently of our company. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you bringing it to our attention.

Gorgeous view!

We had a lot of fun. Guide Perez was very knowledgeable. It would have been cool to be grouped with activity/ difficulty level as it was a bit slow for us who are a little more experienced, but the sunset was absolutely gorgeous and we had a blast!

Great time

We had a great time with Perez. It was beautiful and peaceful in that area of sanctuary and mangroves. I learned so much about sea life there while taking in all the beauty with a little bit of workout. We loved it. I also got to see a couple turtle heads pop up real quick and learn and see what a conch is.

Operator response

Love hearing this! The mangroves really are such a beautiful place to explore. Seeing turtle heads pop up and learning about all the sea life makes the experience so special. Thanks so much for coming out with us!
