Wonderful host and a pleasant day - Excellent small group tour with a nice air conditioned vehicle. Brenda provided cold drinks and took us around site seeing for two hours then dropped us off at a beach for two hours before picking us up and taking us back near the cruise ship pier. Great guide!

Fantastic family adventure with a few early hiccups - We recently took this tour as a family of 10, ranging in age from 8 to 71, and it was the perfect experience for everyone! While the start was a bit chaotic—there was some confusion about where to meet at Wendy’s, and despite texting the operator 15 minutes before the trip, we didn’t get a response until 5 minutes past the scheduled start time—they eventually called us, and everything fell into place.
Once the trip began, it completely exceeded our expectations. Franco, our guide, was fantastic! His personable demeanor and teacher-like approach (complete with having us repeat information back to him) made the experience both fun and educational. He shared a wealth of knowledge about the island, making every stop more meaningful.
The little touches, like providing water, soda, and even delicious rum, added to the experience. Franco timed the stops perfectly—not too long, not too short—and made it easy to understand where to meet and when. He also offered flexibility with our time at the beach, allowing us to tailor the experience to our preferences.
To top it off, Franco dropped us off directly at our cruise ship at the end, which was so convenient. Despite the rocky start, the trip itself was flawless, and we’d absolutely do it again. Highly recommend this tour—amazing in every way!

Excellent service! - Our family of 3 did the 2 hour sightseeing. Ms. Brenda took us at the magnificent spots to take in the breathtaking views of St. Thomas! Learned about some history about the USVI and seen historic sites, downtown areas/shopping sites and highest spot which is the Mountain Top!
St. Thomas is very beautiful!
We were also dropped off/picked up at Magen’s Bay beach as we enjoyed playing at the beach and laying on the sand! We took a lot of pictures during this trip!
Do not hesitate to book a tour with Ms. Brenda. You won’t be disappointed!

Brenda was AWESOME!!!!!! - Although rain change our plans, our guide, Brenda, made our tour an absolute delight! Brenda is an absolute jewel. Her knowledge of the island was impressive. She gave us quite the lesson on the origin of St. Thomas and a lesson on past and present civics. We felt like we were in the most fun history course ever taught! As I mentioned, the rain prevented a day at the beach but Brenda took us to a local eatery at our request and the food was amazing. Do yourself a favor and book this tour!!!!!

Nice afternoon - Good overall survey of the island. Frank’s likes history and we all learned some new facts. The mango rum was awesome, and beach (maegans bay) was nice. Lots of people, but a beautiful afternoon.

Not what we expected... - First it said there would be a sign for Brenda and Frankos Fun Tours at the cruise port but there was none. I started asking random guys for taxi or tours and they were making calls, then told me to wait. About 15 min later Sunny Liston showed up and we were told to go with him. That was fine I recognize his name from other reviews. It looked like all the tour guides around there drove open air trolleys. We left late waiting for more ppl to fill the trolley. He had very loud reggae music on and liked to sing along. That was fine but I was expecting more of a tour guide talking about the island. We went downtown and he gave us a time to go look around and come back. There were more ppl added to the trolley. Next we drove up the mountain and stopped at a nice lookout, very beautiful. He explained what we were looking at and not long after we got back in the trolley. Next we went further up the mountain to the top to a tourist destination called mountain top which was a giant gift shop with a veranda overlook and selling ice cream and banana daiquiris. That was fine. Then we drove down the mountain with more reggae music and him singing and then we ended up at Magen's Bay and he told us all to pay the $5 to get in whoever was staying and dropped us off. He came back 90 minutes later and took us back to the ship with more music. It was more like a shuttle service with a couple stops. I expected more after reading the other reviews and I thought there would be more of a tour guide with information and more things to see in the island than just sometime on our own walking around downtown and then the two overlooks on the mountain ending at the beach. I saw other reviews talk about Island history and seeing Blackbeards Castle and other sights. We didn't get that. I would but recommend this.
