So much fun and crew was great. We have been to St. Thomas/St. Johns and was so glad we ventured out and did this trip. Soggy bar was great.

Lovely water but they took us to Gorda Baths too much hiking and not enough time to enough the water there so you just took a hike then they had you order subpar food from some place they hook up with and it was terrible, when they barely let you hang at the soggy dollar and for what you pay to get into the BVI i would have rather paid to eat and drink at soggy dollar where they tired to then rush you along. So they could have left our the one stop completely. I dont need another gift shop.

Wonderful tour! This was my first time in the US and British Virgin Islands, though my father has been many times. The first stop at Virgin Gordy is breathtaking. There is a hike involved to get to the destination. After, you are brought to a small island with a restaurant. The food was very good and the views were gorgeous. Diamond for snorkeling was just ok. I thought that my experience in Trunk Bay in St. John snorkeling on my own was better than this reef, but still a neat experience. The last spot isThe Soggy Dollar. My dad has entered the island in areas where you hop off the boat and walk through the water. With this tour, you literally jump off the boat in a life jacket and swim ashore. It was raining at this point, so it was on the chilly side once you got to the bar. It was definitely part of the experience though, and a good story to tell! The crew on the boat was amazing. They keep you well fed and on the ride back to St Thomas, they give you unlimited Pain Killers. One of the highlight shows of my trip to The islands,

Great trip

I would highly recommend this trip. We went on the New Horizons boat with Captain Nick. What a fun day. The Baths were beautiful and even though they were a little crowded, we were able to take our time. Captain Nick gave us a fun history lesson as we walked and had water for everyone. I was worried that flip flops would be a bad choice, but there are many areas that you have to walk through water, so sneakers would have been more of a hassle. Soggy Dollar Beach was awesome. I had heard that customs could be quite a process, but Nick handled the entire process at BVI and he got us back to USVI before the other boats, so we all sailed right through. I am always a little weary about purchasing excursions through a 3rd party, but I'm actually super happy that we did. Our party was able to enjoy Soggy Dollar Beach right away b/c we had prepaid and just had to give Nick our voucher, while others on the bought had to 'settle up'. This was the first time I used Viator we booked 2 excursions for this vacation - both through this site and I will definitely use them for my next vacation.

BEST day EVER with Captains Dave and Brayson. It was truly the perfect day in the Virgin Islands and so very worth the money for an extraordinary experience on the British Virgin Islands. I have never seen water as clear and beautiful as the water at Jost Van Dyke and the Painkillers at the Soggy Dollar Bar were cold and tasty! Snorkeling in Monkey Bay was beyond amazing with fish and squid everywhere in sight! It was a day we will never forget and we can't wait to do it again next year! It will be an annual outing each time we come back to the islands! We stayed at the Frenchman's Reef in St Thomas and this was a very easy day excursion! TIP: BRING CASH! Dave and Brayson were so very entertaining and very informative and after lunch those delicious pain killers kept coming making the drive back home a very relaxing and pleasant! Great time! Great Crew. UNBELIEVABLE beauty.

We sailed over to St John to pick up a couple and then headed over to the British Virgin Islands where we visited The Baths, ate at Marina Bay and snorkled at Diamond reef. Then later headed over to Host van Dyke where we spent about an hour. Beware of hidden fees such as a 75 additional fee for entering the British Virgin Islands which due to my research was hiked up a bit by 5 or 10. But the overall trip and the crew were very informative helpful and made the trip enjoyable.

One of the best ways to see the BVI. Captains Dave and Brayson with a B. were humorous , as well as, informative. They really do enjoy what they are doing and it shows, but beware of the squirt gun!! Breakfast is very continental with muffins, fruit and non-alcoholic beveragealcohol after you snorkel. You really don't want anything heavy to eat on the ride there anyway. Lunch is delicious at Pusser's history and photos very interesting The snorkeling was awesome Diamond Reef for approx. 45 min, the fish were literally at the back of the boat while we were jumping in the water. The Soggy Dollar Bar is the ultimate in BVI beach bars. Unbelievable the number of people at the bar, but drink orders were filled quickly. I have read many comments about how there isn't enough time spent at each stop they are absolutely correct! But in their defense, it just isn't possible in a nine hour tour! Request Dave and Brayson, if you can, the Carolina girls were not disappointed! We will definitely do this again it's worth it!

I LOVED my day yesterday! Dave, Spence, and Dalton were the best crew ever! They were thorough, attentive, and basically waited on us hand and foot. The islands were beautiful and I enjoyed every moment of my day! I plan to take another day trip with this company later this week back to Jost!

This was an amazing trip. Brad and Dave were awesome. They did a great job with our family, which included our daughters aged 5 and 7 years. This is a great way to see some of the h

If you're spending a few days in St Thomas or St John, this is a perfect way of dipping your toes into the British side. Boat ride legs are easy and pretty short. Hike in Virgin gorda is stunning, and the snorkeling spot is very good. Captain and first mate/lifeguard/bartender are top notch!
Review by: scolejc1, August 2017
Our group of 8 adults had a super time! Captain Dave was incredible, navigating rough waters and windy day. Brad was a great first mate and took care of all 21 guests Brad also guided us through The Baths with a history lesson. Lunch was great. Jost Van Dyke was lots of fun. Highly recommend Breakaway!!
Review by: Federico V, August 2017
My two kids and I enjoyed the day cruise but wished we could've spent more time swimming at Virgin Gorda. Four destinations plus about 2-3 hours of travel time crammed into a nine hour day was a little too much. Stopping at Marina cay for lunch was unnecessary. I'd prefer to pay a little more for a simple lunch on the boat while snorkeling at Diamond Reef. The time saved from eliminating Marina Cay could then be added to the time available to enjoy Virgin Gorda and Joost van Dyke. Overall, we had a good time and Spencer, Jared, and our Capt. were great.

One of my favorite day-trips ever!

My wife and I had a great time!
Review by: Jennifer C, July 2017
I would give this adventure 7 stars if it were possible. Dave, Brad and Brayson as our captain and guides were amazing. They were fun, knowledgeable, and accommodating. The Baths were one of the highlights of our trip. My husband had not stop talking about them since we left. The snorkeling was like swimming inside a fish tank. I have been snorkeling before, but I have never enjoyed my experience as much as I did with the tour. IF you want a full day of fun, education and relaxation book this tour. I would go again tomorrow.
Review by: Allysa Y, July 2017
NOT a cruise. Small boat. Crowded. Had a very thin slice of muffin as breakfast. Lunch wasn't included. Site for snorkeling could've been better. They also rush a lot. Once you get to the beach, you only get to stay for about 30 minutes. Their equipment isn't completely clean too. So make sure you really look at it before you put it on. There was brown gunk on my mouthpiece. The people who run it though are very nice, just definitely not worth the price they post.

We took BVI tour the first time but this was perfect! I joined with my wife and 13 years old daughter and we have been to beautiful Caribbean day cruises but this was one of the best one. The crew and captain were very nice and the tour consists of hike/beach at the baths, lunch at beautiful Marina cay, snorkel with fishes and living coral reef at Diamond Reef, then finally swim and relax at beech at Jost Van Dyke. We highly recommend the tour for the first timer or coming back to BVI.

Great trip, great people. Make the best of it by meeting fellow travelers. Sit up close to the captain to get even more insights on the many islands you pass by. The staff were all super cool and willing to tell you all about St. Thomas as well as the other islands. Great trip over all.
