I would Not use New Horizons for any excursions. Last week a group of us where going through the baths at Virgin Gorda and the Horizon staff was very rude. Telling people not to come up the ladders, and yelling at one of their members for forgetting his shoes, the man was in his 60's. One of the employees for... more

We decided to do the day trip to the British Virgin Islands. Our powerboat was New Horizons II and there were 12 people in our group. My only concern throughout the whole trip was the day of our trip, it was pouring rain all day all over the islands. Rain for long periods of time is very unusual in STT... more

I can't believe there are bad reviews for this. We loved it. While it is true that you're really packed in on the boat, that was fine because everyone was very friendly. If you're on time you can sit under the cover in the front. The late people who held everyone up had to sit in the back with the... more

My partner and I took the full day trip to the British Virgin Islands with New Horizons and had a great time. Drinks were flowing. Music was playing. Sun was shining. It was a fabulous experience. The day starts early at 7:15 and doesn't end until 4:30 and plan to spend quite a bit of time on the boat as... more

I went on a day tour on the Breakaway II boat, and both the captain and first mate were attentive and professional the entire day. Not only were we served drinks all day (in sippy cups!), but when I left my camera on Virgin Gourda, they called the port authority and picked it up for me the next day. I... more

I agree with the other posts that this trip is worth skipping. The Baths are a must see but not being herded like cattle. They even fuss over their customers needing rest room breaks. I watched them fuss over a little girl needing to go to the restroom. I'm glad her parents ignored the captain's assistent. Marina Cay was a... more

In Nov 2008, we took the day tour of the BVI with New Horizons. The boat was the Breakaway. I would not recommend this company and highly suggest booking through another if you are considering a day tour. Although the assistant was pleasant, the captain of the boat was not. And worst of all they pack you in like sardines!!!... more

watch out if you book with a credit card. I was "confirmed" and then was called later and told that they had "by mistake" overbooked for the next day. they REFUSED to cancel payment due to the very strict cancel policy.?? ( I booked within the 24 hour cancel time period) what a mess. they said they could only reschedule... more

My family went on the Breakaway II powerboat charter to the BVI over Thanksgiving and couldn't wait to get off the boat. The boat was crowded with approximately 24 passengers, and they told us they could even hold more, although we can't imagine where they would put them. The day started with a very crabby and unpleasant captain soliciting for... more
