Amazing days with James! - We had 2 unbelievable days of fun with James. Our first day, we launched from Virgin Gorda. James met us at the VG Habor Yacht Marina. We visited two different snorkeling sights and then headed to Trellis Bay on Beef Island. We had a wonderful lunch at Trellis Bay Market & Grill, although there were other good choices nearby. It was a terrific day - we felt we visited all the coolest part of VG, including the farthest point of BVI. We ended the day with a great view of the Baths. We had our second day from Soper's Hole Marina on Tortola. We started out on Jost Van Dyke for a short hike and the Bubbles pool. Then two more snorkeling sites and lunch at Gertrude's on JVD. Another great, laid-back pick with fresh local good. James is an excellent, knowledgeable captain. Will def. see him again next time.

Beautiful Island Views - The ground swells were unusually large so we couldn't snorkle and we were offered a full refund but we decided to go for it and do a land tour....so glad we did! It was a great day spent with Alicia, our wonderful and knowledgeable guide, who showed us the most beautiful sweeping vistas on the island. Such a great day! Thank you Alicia!

Great way to explore Tortola - Alicia and James were fun companions and guides for a day of exploration and snorkeling and swimming on Tortola. They had the right combination of planning and flexibility, inviting us in to experience the island and ocean that they clearly love so much. You will not regret booking your experience with them.

Great Tortola Day - We had a great day on Tortola with James and Alisha. We visited four extraordinary beaches and getting to spend the day with two wonderful and knowledgeable locals made our experience especially memorable. Hope we cross paths again.

Fabulous. Highly recommend - I went alone with Alisa. She went way out of her way to show me the beautiful island of Tortola. She then took me to a private spot and i snorkeled for an hour and a half. Beautiful reef with plenty of fish. She offered to take me to more snorkel spots but our ship was leaving too early. I highly recommend this tour. One of the best ones in 7 years Thank you!!!!!

The best of the best travel guides. - The entire tour was wonderful because of James our guide. We would give him a 10+ if we could. He is a local and his knowledge of the islands is remarkable as well as his people skills. We travel the world with private guides and we rarely do reviews but felt compelled to acknowledge James for being one of best in his industry.

Beautiful island, crystal clear water - Our hosts James and Alicia were amazing. Very knowledgeable about the island (locals). We basically saw the entire island from the comfort of their air conditioned Jeep. They had everything we needed for a perfect day. The beaches we went to were spectacular. For the longest time we were the only ones there. The guided snorkel was a great adventure. Lots of sea life. This was the highlight of our trip!!! It felt like spending the day with old friends. We will book again in the future!

Perfect day! - James and Alicia are the best. We had 10 of us and we had an amazing time. We have 5 teenagers and this was their favorite excursion we did. They are a young energetic couple that were such fun for our teenagers. They took us to beaches that were private or without tourists. They provided lots of snacks and plenty of drinks which we used since it was a warm day. They were so personal and easy to work with. I would recommend them to everyone.

Very Good Private Tour - Our tour guide was wonderful and very friendly. We saw some amazing places on the island and James was very happy to accommodate all of our wishes and even recommended some places. Snacks and drinks were great! For the price I was expecting some spectacular snorkeling, which did not happen. One beach was beautiful but nothing to see, the rest was too cloudy or too far to swim in the rough waters. I know the weather/water can not be controlled but sure was disappointing and I felt even if we were able to snorkel the wildlife is just not there to experience. If you like being able to choose your destinations, avoid the crowds and smaller group then this is definitely for you. If you truly enjoy snorkeling, you will be disappointed as there is not much to experience.
