If you're afraid of heights stay on the ship. We took this tour on a cruise ship visit. The island was very beautiful and very mountainous. Very steep roads, lots of driving up and down, but it didn't bother us, we still had a good time. At the end of the tour we stopped at the beach for 2 hours.... More

We got off the cruise ship and were hounded by drivers and their representatives, trying to get us to take a highlights tour. It's good that we didn't take their offer. They don't leave until the jitney is full and we would have had to wait for other people to join us. We continued to walk towards town. Another jitney... More

Got off the cruise ship and right outside the port is a line of open sided seat buses. There was bus for the beach and then there are those for island tour. Confirm the price at $20 per person we hop on one designated for island tour and once full - took less than 10 minutes wait, off we go... More

We went on an island tour with spectacular views ending at the beach for an hour for $15. Don't forget the rum. More

We were very excited to visit Tortola as we had never been there before. But when we arrived from the ship, we were told that my great-nephew (9 months) wasn't able to go because they didn't have room for his stroller and wouldn't allow him to be in a car seat (that attached to his stroller). It would not have... More

While in port in Tortola, my group went on an open air bus tour of the island which was great. We were offered a stop at the top of the island offering a beautiful scenic view. Once we arrived we were told that if we wanted to use the bathroom we would either have to pay $1.00 or buy a... More

If you ever visit the beautiful island of Tortola, then Sam Henry should be your first phone call. He is the best source of information on the island. He can handle all of your transportation needs as well as providing great tours of the island. More

We took up the tour around the island via the tourist bus. There were quite a lot of people in the bus. The bus stopped at many places to view the beautiful sceneries along the island. We took quite a lot of lovely snaps to show our friends back home and for enjoying the sweet memories of the trip. The... More

We arrived via a cruise ship for one day only so decided to tour the island. We got off the ship & right outside the port were a load of open-sided buses. After enquiring about the price & duration ($20 each for 3 hours) we jumped on the first available one and had a short wait until it filled, then... More

If you hate big crowds and want to get away from the ship herd, then Sam Henry is your man! He is a pleasant man who is educated and engaging. Very knowledgeable and eager to make your day fun! Professional and cool all in one package. The kids thought Sam was the "bomb digity" If you tour, Sam is a... More
