We booked a tour with them during the last week of April. There was 10 of us, 5 adults and 6 kids. We were able to have the whole tour bus for ourselves, though we booked their general tour. That saved us a ton on money. It was an open safari type vehicle, which the kids loved. Dawuud was a... More

I would have given this tour 5 stars for Dawood's effort. However, we did have a lot of miscommunication with the company before we got there. Plus, another issue after we were dropped off for lunch. All this considered, Dawood made up for it by showing us the entire island from top to bottom(literally)! He has extraordinary knowledge not only... More

Having visited St. Thomas on cruises a few times before, my wife and I wanted to see if there was more to the island than just the store after store of electronics and jewelry. Signing up with Caribbean Historical Tours was the absolute right decision. Dawuud Nymacrze, our guide for a combination riding and walking historical tour of St. Thomas,... More

Four of us booked the General Tour at $50 per person. We were met at the dock by Dawood, a very knowledgeable and personable man, who grew up on St Thomas. Joined by one other couple, we toured for about 2 1/2 hours. Dawood pointed out interesting plants (medicinal, herbal, and toxic) along the way and hit all of the... More

After many emails assuring us that someone would meet us at the port, no one showed up. We wasted an hour in the heat at the port and then had to take a tour with someone else that we didn't know which ended up very poor and a waste of money. We tried to contact Caribbean historical tours but no... More

We do apologize about the unfortunate experience that this POTENTIAL client had with us. We did not receive a payment for an excursion from this group, and if we did, they would not have had such a terrible tour experience gained by using a competitor in this market. We do not book on promises. Our employee was wrong for trying... More

I was a woman traveling alone and I took both the general tour and the historical tour of St Thomas on 2 different days with the same guide while staying in St Thomas. I thoroughly enjoyed both days of touring with this company and our guide was knowledgeable of the island plant life and its uses in folklore medicine and... More

This tour guide is very knowledgable of the history and shows you everything about the island and stops along the route for great photos of the island! We even had him drop us off at... More

This tour operator was recommended by someone on Cruise Critic, so I immediately looked it up, liked what I saw and booked it. It was a wonderful day with a wonderful guide named Darood (I think). He bombarded us with facts from the minute we sat in his vehicle and took us through the island on the back roads. We... More
