I had a wonderful time on this tour! The guides are very friendly and knowledgeable about the mangrove lagoon and st thomas. It was such a beautiful area and it is great to see a company so invested in preserving its natural beauty. The snorkeling was fun and we took some amazing pictures. I definitely recommend this tour. more

We were in St Thomas in November 07 and spent one afternoon on the Kayak, Hike, Snorkel tour of the mangroves. Had a great time. Staff was friendly and informative. My husband had kayaked before, but I never had, and we both enjoyed it. Honestly it was probably one of my favorite activities on our trip. Would certainly recommend it... more

Very educational. We love kayaking so this was up our alley. The snorkeling wasn't bad for beginners, saw a barracuda and a lot of colorful fish and cool birds. We'd do it again. more

When in St Thomas we went on an guided kayak tour of the Mangrove Lagoon. I learned so much. I was totally shocked at how nice it was. I don't think I would have gone on my own. Nor would I have learned so much about the lagoon ecosystem. Definitely worth it but make reservations as it is popular. more
