The guide was great he provided a lot of detail about the Mangrove forest which was very interesting. The tour started early, it was well run and good value. I really enjoyed the kayaking!

We had such an awesome time!! My mom and I are on a mommy/ daughter vacation to the Virgin Islands, it’s our first time here. Our guides were Lenny and Kevin and they were AMAZING! They really truly went above and beyond for us. Not sure how we scored it but we ended up getting a private tour, and Lenny and Kevin were so attentive to my mom, helping her on the rougher trails and also helping her in and out of the kayak! They were both so impressively knowledgeable, and hilarious. We didn’t end up going to the bird sanctuary area because the water was quite choppy so we went on a trail walk to the blowhole instead, it was stunning! We got tons of great pictures. Being in an unfamiliar area it was so appreciated how comfortable the guys made us feel, overall they both deserve a raise they’re AMAZING! Highly recommend this experience! Also shoutout to Lenny for getting such awesome pictures of me!! -Row

Had such a great experience!! Staff was so sweet and understanding when we ran into some traffic (it’s a relatively small island with a lot of two-lane roads), our tour guide Kevin was knowledgeable, funny and friendly and it was such a fun experience!! Quick warning though, try and book with them with something other than GetYourGuide - for some reason the app got the times wrong for every activity we booked. Great experience in itself though and we loved our kayaking experience!!
