We had a great day and Malcom was a great captain. Our trip was delayed because of an unforeseen issue with the boat we were scheduled on but they worked hard and got us set up with a replacement. Everyone was very kind and professional.

Captain Ricky was great. We had our own boat and he was very nice about us setting our schedule since time was limited. Had a great day with all our friends at baths and cooper islands
We had an amazing private air boat tour around Tortola, BVI with Captain Simon Wood on his boat Easy Rider. Simon was very knowledgeable about the area. We spent an hour of the tour at Jost Van Dyke on the beach. It is one of the best 4 hour excursions we have taken (booked through NCL cruise line). Simon can be reached at snorkelbvi@gmail.com
Ricky was our captain and he was excellent. The ocean was a little rough but he was a confident captain and drove great! We enjoy when baths, normal island secluded beach and cove we snorkels there and saw a turtle. I’d your looking to relax that is a great spot. We then went to The caves and snorkeled and one more small beach after that! Each spot was amazing!
Captain Noah was great and Rosie was easy to communicate with for booking and questions. We had 9 adults and three teens and all loved it. We went to 5 spots and the Caves were really spectacular. The snorkeling spots were really fun and we loved all of them. Lunch at Pirates Bight was delicious and the view was wonderful. We had an amazing, memorable time in the boat while we sang along to music while drifting through waves!🏝️🛥️
This was one of our best excursions in the Caribbean! It will definitely go down in the memory books. The morning of, Rosie called to say her boat was going into maintenance, but she was finding a substitute boat and captain. Noah & Kordy were at the boat marina on time, with a beautiful/clean, stunning boat, and VERY accommodating! They had plenty of COLD drinks, brought us to the BEST spots around, and were very pleasant. We felt extremely safe and well cared for. We had lunch at the Willy T, which was great for the kids to jump off and grab a quick lunch. Excellent day!
We booked an impromptu full day trip around the BVI’s and Captain Phil was EXCELLENT!!!! He was educational, funny, made some STIFF drinks for us, had a wicked playlist for cruising, and we thoroughly enjoyed his island tour. We highly recommended booking with Captain Phil. We can’t wait to go back!!
I contacted them asking if they could help me get from my wheelchair to the boat and they worked with us the entire time to adapt the experience to my needs. Noah and Joe were rockstars and helped move me to the beach, ocean, boat and helped us have a great time. I’m thankful for their support in creating an awesome accessible experience!
Booked for my husbands 60th birthday. Great communication and fast response to all my questions. Unfortunately our cruise ship got diverted due to a medical emergency so our port day in Tortola was cancelled. There was no problem getting a fast full refund. We will definitely book again if we return to Tortola.
We went on this excursion on 12/26 from the Virgin Valiant ship. Communication ahead of time was clear and we easily found Capt Marvin. There was a red flag at the Baths that day, so we weren’t able to swim in, but he dropped us off at a marina, where he arranged for a R/T taxi ride, although that cost was additional ($10pp). Be prepared to wait on line to get into the Baths. It wasn’t very crowded when we were there, but there was still a wait. After, we took the boat to Pirate’s Bight on Norman Island. The food took a while, but it was good and our server was very nice. The beach there is quiet, and we were able to get seats easily. Marvin took our group over to Willy T’s, where the guys were all able to jump off the side into the water. I thought the price was a lot, but it was nice to be able to do everything with just our two families.
What an amazing experience! Had the best day and was very well looked after by Rosie and Phil who are brilliant hosts. Seen some of the best spots the BVI has to offer and would highly recommend to anyone!! Thank you 😊
Thank you to Rosie and Phil for the most amazing experience, we had the best time exploring the different islands of the BVI, along with snorkeling and showing us the baths and great places to eat. Your are amazing hosts, and given us the best memories xx
Captain Phil and Rosie took us out for a lovely trip to the North Sound, where we stopped at Saba Rock, BEYC, and The Baths.. Loved every minute of it, from a relaxing smooth boat ride, to unlimited painkillers and other drinks to a lovely swim and walk around the baths. They made us feel very at home, being very attentive to our needs and wanting us to enjoy the day as much as we could! Would recommend as they made me feel right at home, and can’t wait to visit again!
Rosie handled the booking arrangements and was really accommodating. Noah was my captain for the day and I had an absolute BLAST. He was so knowledgeable about the area asked me what I preferred to do (more snorkeling/beach/bars/etc) and took it from there. The boat is super comfortable. We made 5 or so stops, so I got to see A LOT. It was an absolutely unforgettable experience and can’t wait to do it again.
Captain Phil told amazing stories while giving an incredible tour around BVI’s. The eye patch and peg leg threw me off (just joking, but the captain asked for something fun). Such a fun packed day. The adults were like napping toddlers by the time we finished our tour. The boat easily accommodated the 7 in our group. Captain Phil was both friendly and helpful. He knew the best snorkeling spots and times to visit. Highly recommend this tour!
This was by far one of the best excursions that we have ever taken. Communication was excellent as I had reached out to Rosie before we departed on our cruise from Port Canaveral. That way I was able to use WhatsApp to locate Captain Phil once we had taken the short walk over to the marina. To give you an idea of this company, we ran into an issue where upon leaving the harbor a speedboat had been going too fast and turned right in front of us. It meant that we crossed a giant wave that was unavoidable, and a wave came over the front of our boat, soaking some of our party. My eight year-old son had been scared by that initial event, and did not want to continue. Captain Phil even offered to take us back since we were only 20 minutes into the excursion with a full refund. I thought this was very generous and Phil is just such a genuinely nice person that we really enjoyed talking with throughout the day. We opted to take my son back to the Disney Treasure with my parents. My wife and two daughters and myself continued on for the day with Captain Phil with an hour delay. He even gave us extra time at the end of our excursion to make up for the time we lost at the beginning. This excursion is much more than just visiting the baths at Virgin Gorda. Captain Phil took us to several snorkeling spots which were amazing, It was the best snorkeling that I had ever experienced and included three different caves that we were able to snorkel into. He had plenty of snorkeling equipment on the boat. Captain Phil also told us several pirate stories (complete with pirate hat) as they related to the islands and beaches that we were near. He also gave us a thorough history lesson of the area, which we all really enjoyed. He allowed us to dictate the pace of the day - depending on whether we wanted to spend more time in one area, or leave for another area to explore. We stopped for a quick bite to eat at Cooper Island, which was great to see as well. The last stop we made was a short swim out to The Baths which are amazing! I can’t imagine having a better experience down in Tortola. This is also a private experience versus the crowded ones that you get if booking through the cruise excursions. You will be very happy if you book a day with Captain Phil!!
Captain Phil was great! Perfect for the whole family and had great stories for each stop on the trip.
We cruised into Tortola for a day and wanted to visit the Baths. My family and I had an amazing time on this private tour with Phil. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about the island history. Phil made all of us feel comfortable on the day trip around the BVI. He made sure we had a fun day and had a great sense of humor with an awesome music play list. He kept the drinks flowing ( bottled water, soda, Trulys and painkiller cocktails ) so we all kept hydrated. The boat had more than enough space for my family with 3 teenagers. Thank you so much Phil for the wonderful day!
My teen kids and I had an absolutely amazing day with Phil. He was very knowledgeable about the area and had a great sense of humor. The four of us had so much fun on the water. Phil was very gracious and kept offering soda, juice, water and adult beverages for mom. We have zero complaints or issues. I highly recommend anyone to book this company!
A big thank you to Captain Phil and Rosie. His knowledge, skill, and humour made it a trip of a lifetime. Loved the English sense of humour, and tall sea stories. Great boat that can take you anywhere you want to go in the BVIs, and the right Captain who will show you where that is.
