CARNIVAL CELEBRATION: St. Thomas Port- How to get to the 4th VIRGIN ISLAND for CHEAP!

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Would you feel comfortable catching a $2 city bus (safari) AND water taxi to the beach while visiting St. Thomas by cruise ship?

[@TT-xj3si]

Im thinking i will give it a shot on my next cruise but being that ill b solo, idk but i thank u for showing me how.

[@beautyqueendennis6393]

Absolutely! Thanks to you!

[@shellysnodgrass9546]

I love Love your videos !!! However the extra money Spent on a cruise ship excursion is cheaper than being late back to the ship because the ship doesn’t have to wait for you !!!! And going in a cab that will come back To get you at a certain time ….is for me personally a better shot at getting back on time . But again just my Opinion and so that’s a lot Of walking to save a few bucks

[@ktako5845]

This was a really cool video for those who plan to go but have never been to St Thomas. It was informative on both ways to get around. Good cardio and saving money too 😊 eating all that cruise food gets to me so it is nice to get a good walk in. Hopefully it is a safe place in general? I looks ok from what I saw. Beautiful scenery on Water Island 🌴 looks like Paradise

[@barbbouma4838]

You bet! Now that you showed me, I would love to do this❤

[@marybethcarlisle9243]

This was the best instructional video ever!! I watched it 4 times and took meticulous notes. Our family followed our directions and had THE best visit to Water Island. The timing, pricing and direction details were perfection. Thank you a million times over!!

[@K.Nicole.N]

Another amazing video. RacQuelle you are really getting her steps in. I applaud you!!!

[@corlissknowles8974]

I’m comfortable but I was exhausted watching y’all make that trek. I prefer to pay more and get to my destination sooner and spend more time having fun.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

The trek wasn’t that bad. Probably looked longer with me trying to vlog all the details. But I totally understand that! When it’s just me or me and the hubby we go for convenience as well. But with the kids we try to save and make it all about the “journey”.

[@beautiful1011b]

Question: Approximately how much did you pay round trip to get from the port to the beach and back? I'm a Solo Cruiser and I don't think that I'd be so comfortable taking the less costly route.

[@lyncoya]

I've been watching your videos for the past 2 days and I'm a seasoned cruiser with 28 cruises under my belt. You have a new subscriber.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

@@lyncoya thank you so much! 28 cruises is amazing!!! Thanks for subscribing!

[@barbbouma4838]

Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this trick. I am going with my husband this November, and I totally HATE paying so much for everything. I LOVE your way of doing things with a family, and you still do everything, but you are smart with your money! Blessings to you and your beautiful family!

[@branshi]

Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. I was looking for something exactly like you're doing it. That's an awesome 👍vlog you made.

[@Docjuice2021]

First time commenting to your channel. This is my third video and just love your content. I am a school administrator and love your transition from school administrator to content creator. Keep up the good work 😊.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Thank you so much! I appreciate these kind words! I hope your school year is going well! I appreciate the support! ❤️

[@claravincent800]

Another great video ... looking good family. You get around different places real good.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Thank you!

[@DeniseClark-x8u]

I love all your videos, the night clubs get busy around 12 midnight and they stay open to 3am in the morning like most clubs on land. Mostly for young adults.

[@MyFullFiguredLife]

Girl! You are a walkerrrr! 😅❤

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

🤣🤣🤣 yes I am. I will walk all day (the pass out at night lol). The video makes the walk look longer than it actually was.

[@talle2500]

Excellent video Great tips and info. Thanks for sharing.

[@derricklaflore6910]

Going back to St Thomas in August u gave good advice and information about this experience been watching ur video for awhile 🔥👍👍👍

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Glad it was helpful! We appreciate the support! Enjoy your time in St. Thomas!

[@autobotdiva9268]

gonna take very good notes

[@theblessedtraveler7477]

Thank you for the video. We are book on the Carnival Magic going to Saint Thomas, Saint Maarten, Amber Cove and San Juan. You are blessed with a Beautiful Family!!

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

You are welcome! That is an amazing itinerary. Have a great time! Thank you!

[@JustKayaTV]

These are some good tips to save some money

[@acraftybalance]

This was a great video with really practical ideas for my family when we visit St. Thomas since I'm not interested in paying for an excursion.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Thanks! Have a great time there!

[@claravincent800]

Thanks for the video ❤❤❤. I hope to go to St. Thomas in January... very nice and a lot of information. Thank you.

[@intheshadows3871]

Love your videos! We are going to st thomas soon and your vids have definitely been helpful

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Thank you! Have fun!

[@charlenephelps2696]

Awesome video! Loved the hammock incident 😂

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

🤣🤣🤣 yes it’s a classic scene now lol

[@laurenliveslife_]

Never been to St. Thomas! It's on the list but will have to check this out! Thanks for sharing!

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Any time!

[@vickeyblankenship2728]

thanks for sharing

[@avaa1217]

Super informative vlog!

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Glad it was helpful!

[@mickalwilson8804]

We have something in common. I was at Coco Kay 2016 where the hammock won and I lost.. 21:48 I can relate😂. To this day, it’s brought up. It was hilarious🤣 Thanks for being budget conscious but I would be done going up those steps.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Oh those hammocks are terrible! 🤣🤣🤣 glad to hear I’m not that only one lol

[@ayeolasenthill-stokes6987]

My beautiful home..

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Oh nice! We absolutely love it there! Might consider moving there in a few years.

[@racheljohnson3793]

I love this video, when I went to St. Thomas I took the jeep up it was very scary.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Did you drive the jeep yourself? I bet that was scary! That’s one thing I don’t like about St. Thomas. The mountains/hills are beautiful but I don’t want to drive up them lol.

[@racheljohnson3793]

@@MHFamilyAdventures I didn't drive, we had a driver.

[@susandiekmann]

We docked at Crown Bay the last time we cruised (Royal Caribbean) and it was so easy to catch the water taxi. Loved Honeymoon Beach! I'll be solo on the next cruise, and since it's NCL, I'm assuming it'll be Havensight. You pointed out the Pueblo and the bus stop, and emphasized confirming the $2 Safari, but do you just pay when you get on? I had no idea you could use Venmo for the water taxi! We paid cash and thought that was the only method of payment they accepted. Yay! Love your videos! So helpful!

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Yes docking at Crown Bay makes it a lot easier!!! You pay the $2 when you get off the safari bus. And I love that they accept Venmo. I think that is a recent change as when we visited in 2021 they only accepted cash. Enjoy your solo cruise and thanks for watching!

[@davidedwards5343]

That was a long walk, but it was unnecessary, they was a closer bus stop on the opposite side of Nisky center, instead walking towards Pueblo, just cross the street from the Crown bay marina and take a left up to the main street, on the opposite side there's a bus stop from the shopping center.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Yes I’m aware of that but it seemed too dangerous crossing the street to get there with the kids. So we decided it was safer to walk a little bit.

[@gingerportwood7424]

The bus stop that is closer, it will take you where?

[@ann-marie4242]

Need water shoes now since the storm went through with the 60-80 mph winds, it washed all the rocks up. And a big ship is sinking with cars on it , so oil and gas was on top of the water. It was a big mess and another boat was washed up closer in as well.

[@TeamReeseTravels]

Hmmmm, seems like a quiet city area. Did you try any great food?

[@abigailroberson7177]

Grew up in the VI , I miss my home😢

[@JustKayaTV]

I remember the sky ride video lol but I can’t laugh cause I would be crying to 😫

[@dcunni5062]

I would love to ride it, but my friend would not manage it at all. So I have to skip this time

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

It wasn’t too bad til it started shaking as it went through the little pulley system.

[@JustKayaTV]

@@MHFamilyAdventures I understand did you see my video of me crying on the chairlifts in Tennessee 😂

[@janburkett2708]

We love St. Thomas too! Beautiful beaches. Love your swimsuit. Do you mind saying where you got it? Enjoy your videos.

[@NYCslots24]

I got a carnival cruise coming up. One of the stops is in St. Thomas. I think I want to go to honeymoon Beach instead of Megan’s bay to beat the crowds does the taxis take you straight there if you want to from the cruise port ?

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Yes the taxis will take you directly to Crown Point Marina to the ferry. You’ll have to catch the ferry over to honeymoon beach. It leaves at the top of the hour.

[@NYCslots24]

@@MHFamilyAdventures perfect thank you do you know how much the taxis cost to get to the marina? And how much is the ferry to get to the beach

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

@@NYCslots24 I can’t recall off top of my head but I do share it in this vlog (taxi rates when we get off the ship- and ferry cost before we board). I believe the ferry was $15 per adult round trip.

[@tawilson29]

Yes that was a long trek to catch that water taxi. But it’s doable. I just love you and your family. Did I miss it, but where’s Ron?

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Thank you. Ron didn’t make this trip. He had to work. We had just gotten off Carnival Sunrise before boarding this ship. He decided to take that one since it was a new ship for him.

[@lashandafrancis3183]

I feel bad that you guys took the long way down to get a safari. Next time if you walked up the street from the entrance to crown bay (not the right to Pueblo) you could get on the safari across the street from KFC. It would be a 5 minute walk from the water taxi.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

@@lashandafrancis3183 we will definitely try that next time! The local we were talking to said we’d have to cross the street but it seemed too dangerous. The walk wasn’t too bad but next time we will certainly look for the KFC! Thank you for this tip!

[@kparcparc4230]

I love your videos, but the music is so loud when you were taking about the taxies and different port they might dock you at, I could barely hear you.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Thanks for the feedback. I’ll be mindful of that when I edit my next video! ❤️

[@deekwilliams3255]

How often do you all cruise? What cruise line is your favorite?

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

We cruise 8-10 times per year if not more. I am now a full time travel advisor and cruise content creator so cruising is “business” for me. Carnival still carries the torch as our fave line. They are the most family friendly and affordable in our opinion.

[@ann-marie4242]

Well, it was a best kept secret.

[@mzmichelle76]

Hiiiiiii

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Hey Michelle! Thanks for stopping by the premiere!

[@Anonymous502]

I rather just take a taxi. I'm not doing all that walking on vacation lol. If it was a long walk straight to the beach, then I would do it. I do it when I go to Nassau. But all that walking and still having to take a bus, water taxi and shuttle; that is just way too much.

Lived on St Thomas for more than 30 years. Magens Bay was my least favorite beach. Very over rated and expensive. Definitely a tourist trap.🌴

[@EdwardLyonsFlynLyon]

Your audio levels are way off on this video. U usually make good videos but sometimes ur choice of music and volume levels are sometimes unbearable.

[@MHFamilyAdventures]

Sorry you feel that way
