      Wonderful experience
      The attention to making sure we were happy when they had a technical issue was outstanding. The experience itself was awesome for first timers. Josh, our tour guide, gave us info about the islands as well as a great experience. All the staff was very friendly.

      Fantastic Way to see Jost Van Dyke
      This was a day that our group will always remember. The boat was beautiful and spacious, the crew was extremely kind and fun and on top of all of the details. The snorkeling stop was excellent! And our time at Jost Van Dyke did not disappoint. Highly recommend this excursion and crew!!!!

      Nice Trip, No Pics :(
      It was a really nice day trip. Love the baths. Unfortunately my phone battery died. I asked a crew member to take a few photos for us, and he did, however he never sent them. Even after several calls and messages requesting them. Not the best customer service. I go to St. Thomas semi-annually. Will not use this company again.

      Best excursion all week from a group of teens!
      Our three kids went out with Josh and said it was one of the best excursions all week. He was so much fun and allowed them time to play around. If you are staying at Westin must do as it is so easy!

      They cancelled at last minute on NY Eve!!
      We booked months advance the $350/pp sunset cruise for New Year's Eve. 5 hours before the cruise we received a cancellation notice from the operator with no explanation. Upon calling we were told there were boat issues but we noted the catamaran was still out for an afternoon cruise and looked like it was again later that night. So we don't know what really happened other than we were left scrambling to find a replacement event for our evening celebration. I would not recommend this group.

      Not worth the money
      The crew was great, boat was fine. Felt like we were just being herded around. Not worth the money, hassle of customs or time for sure.

      Fantastic Experience
      Had a great time on the boat with our family. Loved being able to go wherever we wanted at the pace we wanted. April was great to work with and I cant wait to go back and do it again.

    Loved the sail and the snorkeling. Good team but Craig went above and beyond and observed that my friends were in need of some help when they were snorkeling by Lovango. Current was a little rough and he came out on the dinghy to their rescue and gave me and another guest a ride back to the catamaran as well. He was observant enough to see that they needed help before they were in real danger. Would do the sail again!

    The crew on the Lady Lynsey II are amazing. We did several snorkeling tours and a dinner cruise. At each event, the captain and crew went out of their way to make our experience perfect. They are friendly and accommodating. A trip on this is an absolute must when in St. Thomas.

    We really enjoyed this trip. The crew was so kind and helpful. The snorkeling was great - saw a few turtles and the afternoon snorkel time was a lot of fun. The captain took us to a nice spot with quite a few colorful fish. The lunch on board the catamaran was very good - exceeded all of our expectations. I was thinking we’d have boring picnic sandwiches and chips but instead we had a nice spread of salads, chicken, shrimp, hummus, and pita bread. But my favorite was the pasta salad. The food is catered by the Ritz Carlton! The trip was a fun way to experience the Virgin Islands and I do recommend. I don’t recall the new of the captain and the two crew but hope sharing date of Tuesday, June 13, helps management figure this out and acknowledge them.

    An excellent day with Captain Anna, Walt, and Craig. The crew was very friendly and welcoming and kept us feeling safe the whole day. Snorkeling in Maho Bay was AWESOME. We would highly recommend this tour.

    Absolutely incredible. Full day multiple stop snorkeling with booze cruise and lunch. Reefs and wildlife was plentiful and everything was excellent. Would've done it a second time if time permitted.

    Everything about this adventure was amazing! My two teenage daughters and I really enjoyed the snorkeling, while my wife relaxed on the boat. The lunch served was delicious and plentiful, as were the included frozen cocktails and beers. Captain Paul, and crew Kestrel and Caroline were all super friendly and fun. As promised we saw many turtles, as well as skates and starfish at the first stop. The delicious, vegetarian friendly lunch was served as we motored to the second snorkel spot, which was magical with abundant tropical reef fish, and fun water games. Finally we sailed back to the Ritz-Carlton Resort, with the engines off. It was a really great activity, and well worth every penny!

    Amazing trip. Captain Jolene and crew were great. Saw several turtles and tons of fish and coral. It was both a physically demanding and relaxing trip all in same day. So worth it and the open bar was also a huge plus. It takes some work to find the turtles and watch them but it is so worth it. Thanks again!

    The crew on Jammin was amazing. Nice ride to turtle spot, good amount of time snorkeling and then a nice sail and lunch on way back. Everyone was very courteous and kind. This was our second time doing this excursion and did not disappoint. I highly recommend them! Thanks Ryan, Erin, Izzy and Sam!

    The crew was welcoming and fun from start to finish. We were taken to two amazing spots to view turtles and other amazing sea life. The excursion didn't feel rushed and we were able to relax and enjoy a nice sail back in. The lunch and drinks were excellent. I highly recommend this excursion.
