3 words… Meatball, Meatball, MEATBALL‼️ Todd, better known as “Meatball” was my tour guide for the Ocean Surfari Full Day Jeep Tour of St. Thomas. I should’ve known I was in for an amazing day just by his mere excitement when I called to confirm my tour the day prior.
I’m sure Ocean Surfari has other great tour guides, but no one can provide the level of excitement, enthusiasm, knowledge, and passion that Meatball provided me. I was truly able to see the love and passion he has for this island through his eyes. Within an hour I felt like I was just hanging out with a close friend touring a beautiful island.
The tour took us off beaten paths, winding through cities and neighborhoods, up scenic mountain roads, and down to secluded beaches that felt like secret Caribbean gems. The panoramic views from the mountain tops were absolutely breathtaking; pictures don’t do it justice. We could see deep blue and turquoise waters stretching for miles, with the many surrounding islands.
One of the highlights were stops at historical sites, where we learned about the rich history of the USVI. Meatball brought the stories to life, making the history of the island truly fascinating.
We also had plenty of time to relax and enjoy the beach and go swimming and snorkeling.
What really stood out was how personalized the tour felt. Meatball tailored the experience to my interests and made sure I got the most out of every stop. Whether you’re into nature, history, or simply looking to see the best views on the island, this tour has it all; including entertainment, aka “Meatball”!
I had a lot of favorite moments, but my absolute best was having the pleasure of Meatball inviting me to his home for the best home made Louisiana Gumbo I EVER had! Mrs. Yvonne, I call her Mrs. Meatball, was so welcoming and the three of us sat at their kitchen island and ate Gumbo with buttered crackers 😋, and just talked and laughed. Beautiful spirited people. I have been officially adopted. Mr. & Mrs. Meatball are my adopted Virgin Island parents. I absolutely love and treasure them 💙🩵🤍.
If you want to explore St. Thomas or St. John like a local and see parts of the islands most visitors miss, this full day Jeep tour with Ocean Surfari is an absolute must‼️
