We really enjoyed our adventure Mountain Biking on Water Island in May, 2012. We did have rain, but they trip proceeded as planned and we had a blast. This is a great way to see the Island Life in the Carribean. Our hosts Susan and her husband narrated our trip with humor and true insight. All of the logistics on... More

Friendly, very knowledgable tour guides. Water Island was beautiful. Our 11-yr old was able to handle the ride easily. Two tour guides attended plus one in a small truck to help repair bike issues and provide water. The excursion wrapped up at a beautiful, quiet beach. More

Susan and Butch (with help from Ray) give a great tour on undeveloped Water Island. A mostly downhill bike ride, instruction included on riding and shifting a mountain bike, that ended at beautiful Honeymoon Beach. Resting and water stops along the way included a visit with an iguana. This was such a refreshing break from the typical port shopping experience.... More

We took this trip as a part of the Royal Caribbean cruise on the Allure of the Seas. Half of my family took this tour and my other half took the typical St. Thomas island/shopping tour. This tour was superb--one of our favorites (for my teen boy as well). We took a small boat over to Water Island (10 minutes)... More

My husband and I had a great time on the Water Island Adventure! We were brought to Water Island on a ferry then taken to the highest point with breath-taking views, where we started the bike tour. Lots of history was shared by our wonderful guide Susan Miller. The tour ended at Honeymoon beach... the most BEAUTIFUL beach we have... More

Our group of 6, ranging in age from 16-49, took this tour during our stop in St. Thomas on the NCL Epic. It was a great way to spend some time away from the crowds. Susan and Butch are full of energy and infomation. We were greeted at the marina, and Susan escorted us to Water Island via the ferry.... More

I had a wonderful time on the bicycle tour of the island. I got some great pictures, learned the history of the island and got to visit Honeymoon Beach, where we had the opportunity to have lunch at a wonderful little beach side stand. More

I should have written this review two years ago, but as I am preparing for my upcoming trip to Mexico and going through old photos, I definitely wish I could go back to St. Thomas sometime soon. When I do, I will be sure to take this tour again. The guides were incredibly kind and helpful. They truly care about... More

How gratifying that even though two years have passed since you took our tour, you still remember your time with us. You didn't mention whether you bought a tank or tee along with the print, but if you did, when you return, remember to bring the shirt with you and I will give you a new one. We look forward... More
