10 Tours in British Virgin Islands That You Shouldn't Miss

December 18, 2021 Vergie Nakamoto

Sailing, diving, fishing and soaking up the sun on perfect beaches is what it's all about on the 60 idyllic British Virgin Islands. Largest island Tortola, home to capital Road Town, is a 12 by three mile haven of white sand, lush green mountains, ruins and rum distilleries. Underwater caverns beckon from dramatic Virgin Gorda. Island time rules on laid-back Jost Van Dyke, where swim-up bars serve delicious rum concoctions. Pristine beaches lure visitors to beautiful coral island Anegada.

I’ve done many things in my life but up to that point I have never been on a horse before. The team at Francis family farm made me feel right at home and completely comfortable with the gentle giant name Apache. Being my first time I was a bit nervous but after a while I slowly began to enjoy myself!! The scenery is amazing, the location is perfect and the team work of both couples made it all extremely special. I’ll Highly recommend Francis Family Farm when in the British Virgin Island over on Anegada. When you go send you read Gumption’s review ???? oh almost forgot about the donuts ???? you have to try their donuts as well and if feeling for more asked about their homemade on island made pizza ????

We told Captain Jeremy we wanted to sea turtles, and he delivered. Awesome tour around the island of St. John to include snorkeling with sea turtles and along a wonderful reef on a small island off of Saint John. Super fun and the “painkillers” were very tasty. Highly recommend for anybody with kids. Thanks Captain Jeremy!

This was the best money I have spent on vacation!! Definitely do the whole day trip and make sure to bring lots of sunscreen. We had a group of 12 on the catamaran and our crew made sure all of our accommodations were met and more! We got to visit other beautiful islands and they took us to the best spots for snorkeling where we were able to see lots of sea life. Captain Splash and first mate Osay were absolutely outstanding and made sure we had the time of our life. Our first mate gave many tips and fun facts about the island, landmarks, and history which was very interesting, and also made sure we always had a drink in our hand and a smile on our face. I would definitely recommend booking with seas the day and will absolutely be back again!!

We went on a private tour to the Baths. Over all a super nice experience. The "stone caves" at the Baths was fun to explore and we also made a stop on the way at Cooper Island, to do some snorkeling. We brought our own snorkeling gear, but the snorkels and fins offered on the boat was good. The boat was really nice. Thumbs up for the food and drinks. We can highly recommend going with captain Swede and Lina, they made this tour fantastic, thank you! We will come BACK
