Amazing Day and Immersive Experience - Mountain Top stop was awesome. Banana daiquiri was great but not included. We stopped at several lookouts with fantastic views. Magans beach was well worth the $7 is costs to get in. You’ll have 2 hours there if you choose. The travel guide was very knowledgeable and experienced.

Awesome tour experience in St Thomas! - Thank you! This tour was awesome! Our driver and tour guide are so knowledgeable of the places and history. We had a blast swimming in Magens Bay beach. We booked for 4 hours but upgraded to 6 hours of tour without paying extra. With the price of $40 per person for 6 hours of tour visiting the most of St. Thomas and 2 beaches, it was definitely worth it. I will recommend Godfrey Tours to everyone!

A good Overview of St. Thomas - Shopping in downtown is very good. Visiting the Mountain Top Gift Shop has an impressive view of Magen's Bay and the surrounding Islands. The gift shop is very big and also features a bar inside and ice cream outside. Lots of great sights.

Ok for the Price - When we got off the ship, we could only go in one direction which was opposite of where the tour bus was waiting. I received a call asking for our location, yet when I asked can you tell me what color the bus is, I was told just to keep walking a particular direction. We had to get a police officer to get on the phone with operator to even see where the bus was. Then when we get there, no one else had boarded and were just arriving, yet he made it sound as though we were holding up the tour.
Once we started, I was disappointed because the entire tour became what we used to have but no longer have due to the hurricanes. I think, it would be better served to just have one conversation about the islands lack of recovery and then highlight the areas that have recovered or places you know tourists will want to see.
Tour guide was knowledgeable, and tour was just ok.

Not what we expected - Tour was horrible! I would not recommend. I know there were 5 cruise ships at port that day and there's nothing that could be done about that. Issue we had is we were supposed to be back at our boat at 1:30 had other plans. At 2 pm we were still on the tour and he started talking about making more stops. We asked to be taken back to our ship, as did everyone else still on our bus and he did have the driver take us back. When the driver would speak we could not understand a thing he was saying. He had all different kinds of tours on one "bus" seemed very unorganized. I would definitely visit St. Thomas again, I would not use this tour again.

Our shopping and daiquari didn't happen. - The most memorable part of the trip is when our tour guide side swiped another tour
bus and we had to wait for police to come to the parking lot. We missed our shooping
spree per what was advertised in the excursion. When we asked about the daiquari,
we were told they don't give those out anymore since their tour company was bought out.
