BEFdoc Posted July 27, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Hi folks, we are arriving in St. Thomas at 9:00 a.m.. We have a BOSS tour booked for 12:15. Leaving 3 hours for sight seeing, what are your recommendations of must see places in that 3 hours? I appreciate your input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms411 Posted July 27, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 27, 2014 How are you planning to get around for those 3 hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_water Posted July 27, 2014 #3 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) 3 hrs before or after the excursion? If before perhaps a walking tour of Charlotte Amalie and a chance to see the history and maybe a light snack at Petite Pump Room over the ferry terminal with a view of the seaplanes coming and going from their deck. If after you could taxi or take the aerial tram to Paradise Point for the views of the harbor and drinks/lunch.

So there is not enough time to go to Paradise Point before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_water Posted July 27, 2014 #6 Share Posted July 27, 2014 3 Hours before the excursion. So there is not enough time to go to Paradise Point before? Yes, we usually "save" PP for the last stop but you can go there earlier. Are you docked at Havensight do you know? If so you're much closer by taxi or the aerial tram.

Ms411 Posted July 28, 2014 #8 Share Posted July 28, 2014 What date will you be coming and which ship will you be on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_water Posted July 28, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 28, 2014 BEFdoc you can check which dock you are at at the vinow dot com site, just select the cruise ship schedule link and then select the month you are there. Crown Bay is to the west of Charlotte Amalie, while Havensight (WICO) is to the east and a bit closer to the East End of STT and a short walk to the PP aerial tram platform. You can often buy tram tickets through the ship excursions desk for ~$18pp roundtrip, or you can taxi up and take ther tram down if you'd like. It's a 15 min walk from the tram platform back to the ship if at Havensight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will keep checking back with them as the date gets closer. Thanks for the advice.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
