Top 10 Things to do in St Thomas in One Day | Cruise Travel Guide

[@tedfisherHSCC]

St. Thomas is outstanding to visit. We have been there a number of times, but at a more relaxed pace. You guys were flying all over this island. You crammed so much in within 6 hours. Magen’s Bay is the best view for sure. Taking the jeep at $350.00 was smart. You can avoid problems with roads, drinking, directions, etc. we liked your music overlay. Your choices are always perfect. 👍

[@JoshRachael]

Thanks so much Ted. Next time we go back we definitely want to go at a slower pace 😂 but you know how we do it

[@annking8633]

Awesome review. I want to go to St. Thomas for 10 days to really absorb the carribean way of life. Loved the turtles. So serene and beautiful. 🐢❤

[@JoshRachael]

Thank you, yes we really want to go back now, the tough part is we don’t know what part we would cut out to spend more time doing others

[@brandoncarpenter9681]

Fun visit, you both are expert travelers, you did more by 8:30 am then most people do in a day lol. Painkillers are my favorite when I was in the St. John, these sugary fun drinks just hit different in tropical places

[@JoshRachael]

Haha that’s just how we roll! 😂 Totally agree with you, tropical drinks in the Caribbean just hit different

[@tedfisherHSCC]

We especially liked how the restaurants are open air and integrated with the area. Every time we went to a parade we would arrive early for a seat and ppl would stand right in front last minute. We sat with a former Tampa Bay Bucs Football Player on our last cruise and he yelled at the ppl in front to MOVE. 😂 We noticed the next level overlook balcony on this ship.

[@JoshRachael]

Haha yea we held our position about 30 minutes before the parade. Unsure if we would again but got some good shots at least

[@KelvinWillis-ox1xh]

This is the best one day tour I have seen and believe me I watched a lot a lot of videos for my upcoming trip

[@JoshRachael]

Thanks so much. We put in a lot of time and planning to come up with it. Obviously it costs some money to do it but loved it and hope it helps others

[@amyshaffner]

Fun day! Great job finding Sunfari! That was a bad ass Jeep. 😎🤗💜

[@JoshRachael]

Thanks Amy it was a blast!

[@diannebrideson2368]

Going to St. Thomas in November. Haven't booked an excursion yet. Loved your video. Do you think Sunfari will drive a 70 year old fun grandma around?

[@JoshRachael]

Awesome thanks so much. I do think they would be able to accommodate, you may want to ask about a step stool since it is very high off the ground and can be tough to get in and out of

[@robertcalise5079]

I was trying to wait until 2026 to book Icon of the Seas but after watching this I cannot possibly wait till then Hoping for spring 2025! You guys are great and so enjoyable to follow Darlene Calise

[@JoshRachael]

Yes!!! That is awesome. We are actually considering trying to get on Icon again later this year. We had such a great time!

[@jenniferking7344]

If it’s still open, strongly recommend Gladys’s. And take home a bottle or two of the hot sauce.

[@JoshRachael]

Awesome we will have to keep an eye out for it if we have time next time we are in St Thomas - next week!

[@CashMopar]

We love that beach, can’t wait to get back in May.

[@JoshRachael]

It was awesome, we would like to go back and hopefully spend more time next time

[@Sarah-w1i]

This is EXACTLY what we want to do, im so glad i found this video!!!

[@JoshRachael]

So glad to help! Hope you have fun!

[@Runningafter40]

Oh how I loved St Thomas!

[@JoshRachael]

So fun

[@louisedasilva6046]

Great video. I can’t believe that you did so much in St Thomas in such a short port day. It’s my favourite port in the Caribbean.

[@JoshRachael]

Thanks a ton!

[@UpUpOurWay]

That was a lot of fun! We’ve been twice and both times went to Maegens Bay. Hard not to even it’s so beautiful, But these are sone great ideas for another visit!

[@JoshRachael]

Thanks guys! Hope you are having a blast in Mexico. We might be heading back to St Thomas this fall, guessing Magens Bay will be in our plans again

[@christineboilard1353]

Thank you so much for sharing this video in particular! We will be doing a 2 week cruise and St. Thomas is the one port we are most looking forward to. We already knew we wanted to do so much here but since I have a spinal cord injury and use a small slim power chair that breaks down, it still takes sooooo much researching and planning way ahead to find excursions that can accommodate me. Watched your video yesterday, messaged Sunfari immediately and they got back to me this morning and we are booked! BTW, not sure if you've been to Flamingo Island In Aruba but I highly recommend it! You have to book directly through Renaissance wind creek Aruba, walking distance from Port. You can buy a day pass or you can book a Island massage package, these are the only ways to the private Island if you are not a resort guest. Look it up. 😊 Also Zeerover's restaurant in Aruba is fantastic! Thank you again

[@JoshRachael]

That’s great to hear! We will be putting flamingo island on our list as we will be visiting Aruba next year!

[@davidwilson3373]

Love the video , great tour … we are booking it!!!

[@JoshRachael]

Have fun!

[@ericaedgerson6425]

Hey, Thanks for the recommendation for St. Thomas. I like you guys.

[@JoshRachael]

Hi 👋 thank you for watching

[@cocorain6549]

Great video keep up the good work.

[@JoshRachael]

Thanks 👍

[@debp5983]

Thank you

[@JoshRachael]

You're welcome

[@Christianrose1974]

We used Sunafari when we were in St.Thomas. They were terrific.

[@JoshRachael]

That’s awesome, they were so easy to work with!

[@debbieduplantis6687]

@@JoshRachael I will have to do Sunfari when we are there since I noticed that we are in the same Jeep Crew. Skallywags!! That was exciting to see.

[@YouUsAndAI]

AMAZZZZING!!! I love your countdown lists!! How did you do the animation of vehicle across the map? Thank you!!

[@JoshRachael]

Thank you it was actually an app called Travel Boast and is super easy to use. I loved how it gave a good idea of where we were going on the island

[@YouUsAndAI]

Oh great and thank you!!@@JoshRachael

[@FamilyAtSea]

You guys cram as much into your days as we do! I'm thinking we're going to just do the Skytram and get back on the Icon when we're there next week. Usually we try to do more, but St Thomas doesn't seem to have the more active experiences we love (i.e. cliff diving, natural rock water slides, cenotes, cave tubing, etc). Especially since it's such a port call on the Icon (same times as yours). Any recommendations on must do things either on the Icon or otherwise? From one cruise KZbinr to another - love your content...you guys are great!

[@JoshRachael]

Oh we love Icon, it’s currently our favorite ship! Our ideal day on Icon would be room service, a trip to the gym, a coffee at Rye & Bean (or a morning cocktail), waterslides and lunch at Basecamp, a margarita at Cantina Fresca, a little time in the casino, a 1400 at the 1400 bar, dinner at any of the restaurants and of course a show! We loved the Overlook and wish we would’ve spent more time there! We have a video on a bar crawl on Icon and just had a blast! You can’t go wrong on that ship is pretty much what we think 😂

[@donwooden6358]

Your visit looked fun. We were there about 6 months ago and found everything so terribly expensive that most things cost prohibitive. Taxi rates were based on per person...at $25 per person it was beyond our means to truly enjoy the visit. That's not even taking in the food and drink costs.

[@JoshRachael]

Oh yikes

[@alisonmcinerney1879]

Are the iguanas on the rocks at the port? They also had a small little casino at the port. I haven't been in over 15 years. 😊

[@JoshRachael]

Yep they were right by the fence before you show your card to head back to the ship!

[@KelvinWillis-ox1xh]

Do you guys have a video for st marteen

[@JoshRachael]

We don't, we have not been there together but might be in line for a cruise there this fall!

[@meggieb1574]

Does anyone know if beaches allow you to bring your own floats or chairs? I assume if they have rentals for chairs and floats they won’t allow people to bring their own but wasn’t sure.

[@JoshRachael]

We did not attempt bringing anything but snorkel gear so I can’t say for certain but there also wasn’t exactly a lot of policing the beach that we saw

[@derricklaflore6910]

The views is unbelievable 😮thereim back in August

[@JoshRachael]

Awesome have fun!

[@erichflynn8720]

We love your videos. But we are curious, what's your occupation to be able to take all these cruises? We are diamond members and take 3 cruises a year and wish to take more. Have you ever considered a group cruise?TIA

[@JoshRachael]

We are both nurses. We’ve been blessed with flexible work schedules! Last year (2023) was crazy busy for our cruising! 2024 is going to be a bit less intense! Doing big ships (Icon, Utopia, and hopefully Wonder) and more spread out. We haven’t talked about a group cruise…yet!

[@erichflynn8720]

@JoshRachael That's awesome, thanks for your service. Love the videos. Happy Cruising!!

[@jblkcns]

How did you have time to eat and make it back on time?!

[@JoshRachael]

Really the Jeep driven by a local was key for this whole thing. We got to places either before crowds (Magen’s Bay and Mountain Top) or bypassed them (Paradise Point) by driving up the hill. Our timestamps are real to give you a truly accurate idea of what can be done

[@YouUsAndAI]

When you hit 22K subscribers, any chance we can get footage of you guys doing karaoke? Lol :):)

[@JoshRachael]

haha it’s safe to say there is no karaoke footage, neither of us are able to pull ourselves on stage to do karaoke

[@YouUsAndAI]

:):):) Maybe next time!! :):)@@JoshRachael

[@julialatimer-hicks2863]

$350 for that jeep tour is WAY out of my budget!!

[@JoshRachael]

It is a bit of a cost, but for a personalized, private tour we thought it was well worth it!

[@iolandalopez4390]

How much was the safari rental?

[@JoshRachael]

Sorry I dont remember off hand but believe we talked about it at the end of the tour

[@annking8633]

I would've had that 2nd daiquiri! 😂🎉🍌

[@JoshRachael]

Haha I would take it now for sure! We knew we had a few drinks to go

[@ga4him7]

What was your actual itinerary that u gave to Sunfari?

[@JoshRachael]

The video shows it in full 🙃….We planned every stop! Rachael picked the spots and Josh mapped it out! We sent it over to Sunfari and bam 💥!

[@helenwoo6166]

Your are such a lovely cute couple.

[@JoshRachael]

🥰 thanks so much!

[@georgedixon9863]

Slackers! lol

[@JoshRachael]

Right?! 😂

[@buddyehlers2930]

😁 Promo'SM

[@JoshRachael]

What’s that mean?
