Are there tour buses waiting at the St John Ferry to tour the island?

[sammiedawg]

We're planning on taking the Red Hook Ferry to Cruz Bay. We want to see the National Park and drive as much of the island as possible. Are there narrated tour buses waiting for the ferries? What would a taxi cost?

Not really narrated buses. Many taxi drivers can be hired for island tours that they narrate themselves. There are always many available in Cruz Bay just after getting off the ferry. This website might be insightful for you, and it also includes costs for licensed taxis: [url="http://www.vinow.com/stjohn/getting_around_stj/taxi.php"]http://www.vinow.com/stjohn/getting_around_stj/taxi.php[/url]

Hello,

There are taxi tours waiting right at the end of the ferry dock. The parking area is to the immediate left and drivers are usually waiting right there.

Cost: Tours for 1 or 2 passengers for two hours is $45.00 and $16 each for additional passengers.

Tours for 1 or 2 passengers for three hours is $55.00 and $22.50 each for additional passengers.
