It was an amazing tour. We learned so much about the history of St. Thomas-Big K was very knowledgeable and also a lot of fun. I would definitely recommend this tour

Big K was fabulous. He was very knowledgeable and we hit all the best spots on the island flavored by his own personal anecdotes and stories. We would recommend this tour to all.
Personalized tour of the island. Real nice. Our guide took our photos at every stop. Friendly conversation and lots of laughs.
Our island tour with Big K was the best decision we made! As someone born and raised on the island, he shares a wealth of information you won't find anywhere else. We learned so much about the culture, history, and true authenticity of the island. By the end of the tour, Big K truly felt like family. If you want an authentic experience from a true local who deeply cares about his home, you have to book the tour and request Big K. Highly recommended!
I cannot say enough good things about Shadiim! We were in St. Thomas for 5 days and he took care of us the whole time from airport and dinner transportation, two full day tours and helping my now fiancé plan a surprise engagement in St. John. Next level service! He knows the islands well and provided suggestions. Our trip would not have been as wonderful without his help! He’s part of the family now!
We had the best time on this tour! Kirwin was so knowledgeable, friendly and made the trip entertaining the whole time. We are staying in Charlotte Amalie for several days and we picked the perfect day. If you can go when the cruises are not in port, the crowds are much smaller. I also recommend going at the beginning of your trip to get all the great restaurant, beach, shopping, snorkeling recommendations, as well as a general overview of the island. One of our favorite tours!
Kerwin was a great tour guide and host to us. We enjoyed our time with him and the tour was excellent! We visited scenic sites and historical locations. We never felt rushed! His knowledge of the Island was great and he provided extra insight!
Our tour guide Kerwin "The Big K" is amazing! Not only did he do an amazing job taking us around and giving us the history of the island, he also took beautiful family pictures for us when we asked. We all enjoyed the tour and will book it again next time we're in VI.
Thus company was great, we ahd an issue and could not make our original tour. They offered to change it without us asking. We were able to work with the driver, Kerwin, and get our tour at a later time. Kerwin is local to the island and it was clear he loves it here. He shared a lot of history as we drove and stopped for pictures at spectacular spots. You cannot beat it for the price!
My wife and I had an exceptional experience touring St. Thomas with Xplore VI! We did the Island Sampler tour which gave us a wonderful overview of the island and its history. Big K (Kerwin) was our guide and he was outstanding! I told him that I am an historian so he focused a lot of his content on that and took us to relevant places. For a short tour we learned a lot and had a wonderful experience. Big K even picked us up directly from the airport so we can begin our trip with an island tour immediately upon landing and then he dropped us off at our hotel. This really was a great way to begin our vacation and I highly recommend this company!
We appreciated that the tour was customizable and had a great experience during our few hours on the island. Highly recommend this tour and ask for Kerwin. He was extremely knowledgeable and his love for the island was evident.
We had a great tour with Big K! He was engaging and informative. He was friendly and shared a lot of information and personal knowledge of the beautiful island of St. Thomas upon our arrival. Highly recommend!
We had a great experience with KERWIN ( Big K) He grew up on the island and obviously loved it and its people. Accurate historical information and a great personality. He actually cares that we had a great experience, and we did. I highly recommend this particular guide and the tour that he offers. Next time we will do the 4 hour tour and book far in advance. Do this tour with Big K… You will be glad you did. Sincerely Paul and family
Tour of all the hot spots on the island. We arranged a tour for our family of 4. Kerwin was our guide. He was AWESOME
Our tour guide, he called himself Big K since that was easier than saying his name, gave us a wonderful four-hour tour of St. Thomas. It was his personal touch and his lifelong experiences on St Thhomas that made this such a memorable tour. My friend has some mobility issues so he went out of the way to help her and also stop at overlooks that were convenient for her. At the end he recommended this seaside restauranr, called Mim's, which we have been raving about.
We had an amazing experience on the Island Tours Your Way, Your Time tour, and it was one of the highlights of our trip to St. Thomas! Our guide, Ian, a local resident, was absolutely fantastic. His knowledge of the island, its history, culture, and hidden gems made the tour so much more meaningful than simply visiting the sights. Ian was friendly, personable, and passionate about his island. He customized the tour to our interests, never made us feel rushed, and shared stories and local insights that you simply wouldn’t get on a larger group excursion. We visited breathtaking scenic overlooks, learned about the island’s rich history, and even discovered a few local favorites along the way. If you’re looking for a personalized experience with someone who truly loves St. Thomas and wants you to love it too, this is the tour to book. Ian made us feel like we were exploring the island with a friend rather than just a tour guide. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting St. Thomas. It was worth every penny, and we’d book with Ian again in a heartbeat! 10/10! 🌴☀️🇻🇮
Can’t recall his name, pretty sure it started with the letter B. He was amazing! Very knowledge in the history and answered any historical questions we had. He even volunteered to take us pictures and provided us with water. Great experience.
We took the 4-Hour "Island Tour Your Way" today with Cohen, and it was hands-down one of the best experiences we’ve had! If you want to see St. Thomas the right way, book this tour and ask for Cohen. He is incredibly knowledgeable and brought the rich history and culture of the island to life with so much passion. Not only did we learn a ton, but he also knew all the best spots to capture the most breathtaking views. We walked away with some absolutely awesome pictures to remember our day! The flexibility of the customizable itinerary combined with Cohen’s fantastic energy and local expertise made for a perfect afternoon. Highly, highly recommend Xplore VI if you are visiting St. Thomas!
They will customize to you. Tell them what you are most interested in or they will suggest main points of interest or a combo of the 2. Private tour but well worth it! Big “K” was great!!! Very knowledgeable about all aspects of the island not just touristy stuff.
Big K is fabulous! We enjoyed his stories and he shared a rich history of the island! We had plenty of time to take pics (he is a semi pro photographer himself!). We shopped, walked the beach, and saw so many highlights. Truly a great experience!!
Kerwin was an amazing tour guide! We have done several driving tours like this in other places, and Big K was the best guide we've ever had. He tailored the tour to our interests and answered all the questions we had. We got a great overview of the island and it's history. We would highly recommend this tour to anybody considering it.
Fabulous way to see the island from some unique viewpoints! Ian was a wonderfully attentive tour guide who taught us so much about this lovely island. Company was easy to communicate with and gave great instructions where and when to meet him as we did this in lieu of a cruise ship shore excursion. (Meeting place was a very close walk from port.) Highly recommend if you want to see the beauty of the island from many different vantage points.
Excellent and engaging overview tour by Big K. We went all over the island, got a local lunch, and made my flight. Big K made sure I saw the sights and provided insight and historical details.
Great tour will make sure to focus on what interests you. So friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recomend
Kerwin is a great guide, very knowledgable & proud of his island. He took us to great locations & stunning viewpoints. Loved to take photos of us at each location. A fantastic tour of a beautiful island
Ian was our driver and he was fantastic. He showed us the popular spots and some other spots that were not as well known. He is extremely knowledgeable about St. Thomas as well as the surrounding islands. He was professional, and kind. I highly recommend Ian and this tour.
Randy did a wonderful job giving a scenic and informative tour of St. Thomas. As a native he was able to show us lots of secluded and beautiful beaches and lookout points. His extensive knowledge of island plants, animals and wildlife made the tour informative and engaging. Be sure to have a banana daiquiri and enjoy life on island time!
St. Thomas can be quite hilly and some of the hills are quite steep. Particularly for any with mobility issues, this can be the perfect way to get driven around and see many of the highlights of the island. Kerwin gets amazing review and there's a reason why. He was personable, knowledgeable and a wonderful 2-hour companion.
Kerwin “Big K” was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Company also worked with us on changing the date when some travel issues made part of the party be delayed. We stopped at ~10 stops in 2 hours. Such an amazing way to see the island!!!!

It was a great experience. Kerwin was very knowledgeable and tailored the trip to us. Would highly recommend!
We had a wonderful, informative tour of St. Thomas with Kerwin. He is a native and had so much information for us about his home! Lots of stops for pictures and a stop at the banana daiquiri shop at the top of the island. His jeep was air conditioned and super comfortable. I would absolutely book this again.
Big K 2his jeep is first class. He took us to blue beard and black beard Castle also the top of the 2 mountains for the breath taking views of the island and beyond. We're recommend his services for anyone who wants to get a private local tour guide that love his home St. Thomas.
It was the best tour we have ever been on. Our guide, Kerwin was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend.
Ian was a wonderful tour guide and showed us all the major scenic spots on a mini tour! It was an enjoyable and informative outing.
Excellent tour of the island. We were collected from our cruise ship in a clean and well presented jeep. This made our journey around the island very comfortable as there is quite a climb up the mountain. Our guide Randy was very informative and showed us all the sights on island. The views from the top of the island looking down on Magens bay are spectacular topped off with delicious banana daiquiri at the famous mountain top. Brilliant three hours away from the ship. Would recommend.
We had such an amazing time with Kerwin on this tour! Kerwin met us promptly at the agreed apon meeting location. We spent the next 4 hours traversing the island with Kerwin providing excellent in depth context about each and every stop. We stayed at each location as long as we wanted to truly take in the beauty and history of St. Thomas. Kerwin also has a secret talent as an amateur photographer and takes excellent pictures! If you are coming to St. Thomas, give this tour a try! I don't think you will be disappointed!
Kerwin (our driver) was relaxed, knowledgeable, friendly and responsive. We had a fun time and would highly recommend! The Jeep was comfortable, the A/C cool and cold water available. We made numerous stops for photos and memorable views. Including "hidden gems" I would not have known about otherwise. Thank you Kerwin!
We had the best time in St. Thomas. Our tour guide, Randy, was so knowledgeable and shared lots of history about the island with us. He even brought us fresh bay leaves from a tree at his home! We visited two remote beaches (the water was rough so we couldn't swim in the first one), the mountain top (banana daiquiris lived up to the hype!), and other enjoyed many scenic views and stops for photos along the way. We would 100% use this company again, but next time for an all-day driver--not just 4 hours.
Excellent guide. Willing and able to be flexible with the itinerary as the day progressed. We did the private tour and everything went great!
Awesome we did the island tour with Myron and it was awesome Myron show us mountain top Megan's Bay Brooks Bar downtown shopping and Main Street black bears Castle Paradise Point cookie Point Beach Carl world 🌎
Our tour guide was fantastic. Helped take pictures and provided a lot of interesting history about St. Thomas. Took us to interesting sights and locations. He catered the tour to our time slot and they were great about adjusting the time when we realized we had double booked excursions. Night recommend. Nice air conditioned beer model jeep. Very comfortable and clean.
Big K was amazing, super knowledgeable and answered every question! He had a warm and inviting personality and we would recommend this 1000000%
We had wonderful tour around the island with Randy. Highly recommend. He took us to the main attractions and also to some locations we asked for specifically.
Excellent time on this tour. It was so nice to get personal insights rather than the large tour narrative. Highly recommended
We had a private 4 hour tour with "BIG K", Kerwin, 12/11/25. He took us around to all the sites that everyone else goes to, and some others they don't , which was pretty cool. If we wanted to stop for something, no issue at all. But, in addition to everything else, Big K is a wealth of information about the Island, having grown up there and having at one time actually worked in the government. We felt privy to information and insight that I suspect others on other tours would never have gotten. Even though it rained a good portion of the tour, It was a great experience and left us with what I believe was a full experiential understanding of the beauty and complexities of the Island. Absolutely worth the extra expense in relation to other tours available!
Kerwin was an excellent tour guide and driver. He provided great insight into all of the sights and we were able to see a lot of St Thomas - from the pier to the highest point. I highly recommend this tour.
This was an amazing tour on Thanksgiving Day and we learned so much about the history of the island. Kerwin was an absolute joy and we enjoyed it so much. Thank you for the opportunity to learn about the island and giving us your time on a family holiday.
We booked the shorter tour last minute for our shore adventure on our cruise and we were lucky enough to get Kerwin (Big K) for our guide. He was truly amazing! He tailored our destinations to what we wanted while making sure we saw all the important and beautiful spots St. Thomas has to offer. He was extremely knowledgeable and answered all our questions. He was also a great driver and I never felt nervous once. I highly recommend the tour and requesting Kerwin if you can. You won't regret it! The Jeep is an added bonus!
This was an awesome tour of the island! Kerwin, our guide, was very personable, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. He made sure that we saw all of the places that we wanted. Highly recommend!
