About this experience

Shuttle gives passagers the convenience of a fast reliable and hassle free round-trip to reach beautiful Cruz Bay, on USVI St. John Island. We shuttle clients to the East End Ferry dock earlier and return to the ship on time. We have never missed a cruise ship in twenty-five years. There are two ferry routes that connect St. Thomas and St. John. The reliable route for cruise ship passengers departs from Red Hook, on the Eastside.
Convenient shuttle service from both cruise ship ports in St. Thomas to the St. John Ferry Terminal. At the port most taxi drivers don't leave right away. They fill their vehicle with people. Taxi fares are per person here in the USVI, its therefore most profitable for the taxi to have a full vehicle. Avoid the fuss of looking for transportation once you arrive in St. Thomas, We take care to provide our customers quality round trip taxi and ground transportation services.
For more convenience you can also book your Ferry tickets on line.
