About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- mellis3740 contributionsExtraordinary Tour Guide and Taxi ServiceWe used Franko as our taxi driver for 4 days on dinners and a trip to airport. We also used him on the 4 hour shopping and sightseeing tour. Brenda and he were excellent. Delivering us door to door from our resort room to the restaurants. Always on time and kept in touch by text. Would recommend him for anyone needing transportation on St. Thomas.Written December 30, 2024
- bbt72440 contributionsGreat experience!Franko provided us a private tour with some special requests. We had a friend with us whose mother lived in St. Thomas a long time ago. Franko took us to the exact address - WOW! Franko also provided us a private tour of the island and he is fantastic!! So very knowledgeable and informative as well as a fun guy! Franko found a couple with a child at the mountain top whose taxi ended up at the wrong place and Franko gave them a ride back to their ship - so considerate even though the couple turned out to be jerks and refused to pay him once he brought them back to their ship! Thanks so much for the great tour and will recommend you to everyone I know going to St. Thomas!! Kathy's sister, Brenda :)Written December 11, 2023
- shanequas20160 contributionsScamPLEASE STOP!!!!! This place is a scam!!!!!! On the day of my birthday…..My family and I booked this service for a ride from the airport to our hotel at Sapphire Beach no one I mean no one from this company showed up to get us. We were at the airline airport for an extra hr after our plan landed. We were told to wait the night be running a bit late so we did and even called no one answered. I had other people that knows this couple personally and called them and still nothing and mind you we already paid so now I have to try and get my money back…. We ended up booking another taxi/cab with someone for half the price and this cab driver took us ever where we needed to go…. I have also reported this company to the airport to stop them from scamming anyone else…. DO. OR BOOK WITH THIS COMPANY ITS A SCAM!!Written September 22, 2023
- dianamG2083TL0 contributionsNot what we expected...First it said there would be a sign for Brenda and Frankos Fun Tours at the cruise port but there was none. I started asking random guys for taxi or tours and they were making calls, then told me to wait. About 15 min later Sunny Liston showed up and we were told to go with him. That was fine I recognize his name from other reviews. It looked like all the tour guides around there drove open air trolleys. We left late waiting for more ppl to fill the trolley. He had very loud reggae music on and liked to sing along. That was fine but I was expecting more of a tour guide talking about the island. We went downtown and he gave us a time to go look around and come back. There were more ppl added to the trolley. Next we drove up the mountain and stopped at a nice lookout, very beautiful. He explained what we were looking at and not long after we got back in the trolley. Next we went further up the mountain to the top to a tourist destination called mountain top which was a giant gift shop with a veranda overlook and selling ice cream and banana daiquiris. That was fine. Then we drove down the mountain with more reggae music and him singing and then we ended up at Magen's Bay and he told us all to pay the $5 to get in whoever was staying and dropped us off. He came back 90 minutes later and took us back to the ship with more music. It was more like a shuttle service with a couple stops. I expected more after reading the other reviews and I thought there would be more of a tour guide with information and more things to see in the island than just sometime on our own walking around downtown and then the two overlooks on the mountain ending at the beach. I saw other reviews talk about Island history and seeing Blackbeards Castle and other sights. We didn't get that. I would but recommend this.Written October 16, 2022
- foxyraine0 contributionsExcellent service!Our family of 3 did the 2 hour sightseeing. Ms. Brenda took us at the magnificent spots to take in the breathtaking views of St. Thomas! Learned about some history about the USVI and seen historic sites, downtown areas/shopping sites and highest spot which is the Mountain Top! St. Thomas is very beautiful! We were also dropped off/picked up at Magen’s Bay beach as we enjoyed playing at the beach and laying on the sand! We took a lot of pictures during this trip! Do not hesitate to book a tour with Ms. Brenda. You won’t be disappointed!Written August 15, 2022
- rochelleaguilera0 contributionsGreat Service!Brenda was fantastic! We went for a tour and used the taco service. I would highly recommend them to anyone!Written March 27, 2021
- Atlantatravesl0 contributionsVERY Dependable Cab ServiceWe just visited St. Thomas for our Spring Break. Franko was our taxi driver for most of our destinations. He was kind, friendly, and very dependable. He would arrive right on time, ready to take us wherever we needed to go. If he couldn't make it himself, he would send someone else from the taxi company to come and pick us up. Franko took very good care of us and we would highly recommend him for any of your transportation needs at St. Thomas.Written March 8, 2021
- e_roberts880 contributionsWonderful tour and tour guide!Everything was sooo wonderful and Mrs. Brenda was such a pleasure!!! Tour was amazing and plentiful! We learned alot about the island and she was very attentive to our questions! The views were just amazing! Glad we took this tour and it was very reasonable and worth it!Written February 22, 2021
- arlenej4100 contributionsAwesome!Brenda was the best! She took us to get breakfast and showed us the true beauty of the island. She was extremely knowledgeable and gave us some great information about the history of St. Thomas. My family and I had a great time. I highly recommend this tour!Written February 17, 2021
- Ckdes7210 contributionsAwesome day!Brenda was awesome! She made us laugh she made sure we had what we needed. We will definitely use her again. Thank you Brenda for a good time!Written December 18, 2020
- leodelarosa0 contributionsGreat tour experienceWe booked the 2hr tour and I called the office to find out how to get to the pickup location from our hotel and Brenda answered the phone and said she will come pick us up from our hotel, no extra charge. She is amazing and very knowledgeable of history and culture. The tour was very pleasant, she is very friendly and the bus is open, airy and perfect for sightseeing. I highly recommend Brenda and Frankos fun tours. I dont have enough good words to describe the experience other than take another tour before I leave.Written November 18, 2020
- Delaney V0 contributionsWe love Brenda!First of all, Brenda and her husband are two of the friendliest people we have come across during our stay and a complete joy to be around. Brenda was so amazing, very knowledgeable about the history of the island and landmarks and also knew all the secret spots to take us to get the best pictures. We enjoyed every minute we had with her. We got around the whole island sightseeing, and cut the shopping portion short as we booked on Sunday and spent extra time on the beach at Magens Bay, heaven! We saw mountain top, blackbeards castle although it was closed due to hurricane repairs we still peaked over the fence and viewed the beautiful grounds. We asked to get a taste of local food, and wow was it good, try the saltfish! The island has very curvy narrow roads, and wow can Brenda drive that rig! We were impressed! Dont come to the islands and go without booking with Brenda and Franco's fun tours, we had the time of our lives (she also took amazing photos of us of our girls trip!!), and she is truly a delight to be around. She dropped us off back at our resort safe and sound with handmade masks! We adore this woman!Written November 15, 2020
- Thejoncom0 contributionsBrenda saved us, and we had a great outing!We were set on walking up to Blackbeard’s Castle when Brenda found us walking with no sidewalk, offered directions that would get us there the safest, and when we found out it would be much farther than we thought, offered to take us up. When we got there, we found it was closed, but met some more folks from our ship that had managed to get up there and find it closed. So Brenda offered to take us on a sightseeing tour, which was amazing, and we had a blast. Brenda is amazing!Written March 5, 2020
- Palamino080 contributionsThe Views Were Amazing !!!!The Views were just incredible from different vantage points across the island , did bit of shopping, too many jewelry stores , Brenda was a fun person , we had a good time.Written February 13, 2020
- Lorrainehall640 contributionsFabulous coupleLooking for something to do while in St. Thomas? Let me tell you about Brenda and Franco's Fun Tour. From start to finish, you were a part of the family. They attended to our every need including where the bathrooms were located, where the best shopping is, and asking each participant what they wanted to drink at each stop. They enthusiastically shared their knowledge of their beautiful island and it's people. Franco and Brenda clearly love what they do and it showed in their professionalism and how they conduct their tours. We will definitely be back and will look up these two great folks. Thanks Franco and Brenda.Written December 22, 2019

We had the most amazing day with Ms. Brenda! We let her choose the majority of our itinerary. She took us to multiple breathtaking viewpoints of Magen’s Bay, Charlotte Amalie and the cruise port. We stopped at Drake’s Seat and Mountain Top. We walked down the 99 steps by Blackbeard’s Castle and she picked us up at the bottom. Ended our day at Secret Harbor for some amazing snorkeling. Great conversation about the history of the islands, hurricanes Irma and Maria, and how the islanders have been getting through the pandemic. Very friendly and accommodating. We’ll be sure to bottle up that sunshine to get us through the rest of winter in Wisconsin (cheese country) ;) :):) Thank you for the beautiful day, Ms. Brenda!!
