    Hope you’re not in a hurry!
    Tourists need to be aware that these busses are fun, and convenient, but they operate on island time. Going to your beach won’t be a problem. There’s lots of people all going to the beach, so the bus gets full quickly. It’s going BACK to your starting point at the end of the afternoon, that is the problem. For me, I needed to get back to the ferry to St Thomas. The drivers are not concerned if you urgently have somewhere to be, such as if your ferry is leaving in 1 hour and you NEED to get on it in order to not miss your cruise ship. They will tell you that 1 hour isn’t enough time; blaming you for being in a hurry, even though it’s just a 20 minute drive and you HAVE prepared a plan ahead of time by being an hour early for a 20 min trip… but dude, you just made me sit here in an empty bus for 15 minutes and now the clock really is ticking. I wasn’t in a hurry before, but the longer you wait for more customers well yeah now I am starting to be in a hurry. I guess that makes me the AH. Just be aware that they will only start the vehicle when they’re good and ready, and even if you offer to pay them more for a private ride, or pay them more to leave now, they still won’t hurry. They want a FULL bus of people before they depart. I get it, a full bus is how you make money… But when there’s nobody else around at the beach wanting to share the ride back to the ferry, it becomes a desperate situation where the customer is relying on the driver to “get going” and the driver is sitting around chatting with their buddies and waiting for more (nonexistent) passers-by to jump on. It’s also irritating to have people tell you to “relax” when you have a ferry to catch, a ferry which DOES depart on schedule. I was relaxed… until I needed a ride from these guys.

    Starfish Tours on St. John Friday, November, 3, 2023 Bill & Connie Khalid, Thank you for assisting us with our tour of St. John's on, Wednesday - November 1st. We had a wonderful experience. Evan was an excellent tour guide and a well-spring of information on the history of the Virgin Islands, and the folklore of people like Jeffrey Epstein and Julius Oppenheimer. The four ladies who accompanied us thoroughly enjoyed the tour as well. We're sorry not to have met you personally, but maybe at another time. Until we meet again, Fondly, Bill and Connie

    Parking was a disaster.
    We went for a few hours from Naples with our small dog. Talked to the parking person and she said it was fine to take a leashed dog on the beach. We proceeded to do the Q Reader, put all information in to pay the $5.00 for one hour. After 45 we returned to the car and found a $150. Parking ticket. I fought it through two judges but they did not care. I will never go to Sanibel again.😭😭😭

    My wife and I were totally captivated and impressed with Hibiscus, our driver and guide for Star Fish Tours and Taxi on our recent visit to St. Johns USVI. She was knowledgeable, engaging and just plain fun. St. Johns has a rich history which includes a slave uprising in the early 18th century leading to emancipation more that 120 years later. Hibiscus knew every detail and brought the uprising to life tying the past to the present history of how St. Johns became part of the US. This tour and guide is a must.

    Great tour with Hibiscus!
    Hibiscus was lovely and so informative!! It was just my husband and I and she answered questions and took photos for us. The views were amazing and 2.5 hours was plenty of time to see the sights and learn about some of St John’s amazing history!

    Excellent Tour and Tour Company!
    So happy that we booked this tour! We would not have been able to see all that the island has to offer any other way. The driver tried his best to fulfill our requests for our favorite foods and provided us with adequate time to enjoy each spot. I recommend this tour to anyone visiting the island.

    Excellent tour experience!
    Mr.Evans is the such a wonderful person, mannerisms and love for his island alluminates through him as he speaks. He gave us exactly what we were looking for on learning the history of the islands. We enjoyed our tour and time on St. John and we have decided that the next time we come to VI we will book on St. John thanks to Mr. Evans. If you want a authentic history and view of St. John's than book with him, it's well worth it!

We book this tour for our family and it was so good! Our guide, Hibiscus (Not sure if I spelled her name correctly), was excellent. She was extremely knowledgeable and took great care of us. We really appreciate her as our guide and I would highly recommend this service for anyone looking to see the island. We also had left our beach chairs in the truck and she brought them back to us. That’s great customer service!!! We love this tour!!

This trip/tour was totally worth the price! Hibiscus was our tour guide and was fantastic! She is a wealth of knowledge and was so good to my husband and I and our kids. Having a private tour for just the 5 of us was amazing. The tour felt personalized and it was fantastic to have the whole tour taxi to ourselves! I admit I was a little nervous booking this 4 hour tour only because I wasn’t sure how our three kids (ages 6, 9, and 11) would respond to it. Hibiscus was patient with our 6 year old and took the time to point out things to the kids that they especially would enjoy! We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone!

This review makes our heart warm. Thank you for sharing your experience. Hibiscus has a soft spot for the younger ones. She believes that one day - one of them will be the one to help her cross the street when she gets older. Happy, happy, happy that your family enjoyed the services!

Just returned from our tour with Evans. He did such a great job explaining local history stopping numerous times to show us sites and vistas. I explained that we are not “ beach people” so he only took us to one beach which we did enjoy. He was very entertaining had a great sense of humor . After the tour we were sorry that we were staying on St.Thomas because St.John seems to have so much more to offer. Highly recommend this company.

Hibiscus, the driver, did a fantastic job of providing color about St John Island. Her humor and personal stories kept us in awe while the scenic views she provided were fantastic.

Swimming as part of the tour made it even better.

We had a wonderful 5 hours touring St. John with Evans as our guide. He provided so much history and structured our tour to maximize our time on the tour. When we were running short on time, he gladly offered an extension so that we were able to enjoy the beach at the end of our day. Would highly recommend this at the beginning of your stay on St. John, so you have an overview of the island and can return to the places you want to spend more time.

Evans was a terrific tour guide! He gave us a complete overview of the island -- everything from history to current living to best restaurants. He took us all over the island and we got a good sense for the stops we wanted to go back and do on our own. It was great to get an insider's view of the beaches and stop at a few without having to worry about parking. We particularly enjoyed our time at Trunk Bay and Cinnamon Bay. Evans customized everything to our requests. The 4-hour trip flew by! I highly recommend doing this tour if you want to learn more about St. John.

We took a wonderful 4 hour tour of this beautiful island. My parents are in their late 80s and we are in our 60s. Hibiscus was our guide and her clear explanations and cheery personality made this a very special memory for us. She customized our trip to highlight things we were interested in. It felt like spending 4 hours with a friend. In fact, she even offered this tour to us on Christmas day! We wish her and her family the best.

Had a blast with Hibiscus on this tour. We were a party of 7 including 2 teens. She picked us up at our villa promptly at the start time and then took us all around the island. She told us a lot about the history of St. John and its people as well as the USVI in such a fun and engaging way. She made several stops along the way so we could get good photos and we had time for 2 beach stops of an hour each. We would recommend this tour to anyone!

Absolutely AMAZING tour and company. We booked a five hour private tour with Star Fish and they did not disappoint. The eight of us all agreed it was the best activity of our trip to St. John. Evans was our tour guide. He is such a sweet, funny, gentleman. He is super knowledgeable about all the fauna and history of the island and very easy to talk to. We saw and learned so much about the beautiful island during our tour. We stopped and took many photos, walked on the beaches, toured Annaberg, and ended the tour at the Windmill for lunch and drinks and one of the most amazing views of the island. Evans picked and dropped us off at our Villa in Chocolate Hole.
We also used Star Fish for all of our transportation while on the island. We decided after driving around last year on the island in a rental car that we did not want to drive again. Evans and his wife Hibiscus were so easy to work with. They were prompt, on time, and always smiling. I HIGHLY recommend them!

Evans enjoyed spending time with your family and company of the two younger ones as well. He gave your son a new name "Junior". He takes great pride in showing our visitors the great spots and intriguing history of St. John. We can't wait to meet your family again in the near future. Until we meet again - HEARFELT THANK YOU's"!
