Planning a St. Thomas cruise port day? We visited St. Thomas two different ways to see how much you can experience on your own. #StThomasCruisePort #CruisePortGuide On our first visit, we set out on foot from the cruise port and explored Charlotte Amalie on our own. On our second trip, we changed things up—using transportation, exploring more of the island, and visiting two different castles. In this St. Thomas cruise port guide, we’ll show you what we did, how we got around, what we saw, how much time it took, and how much each day actually cost us. If you’re trying to decide what to do in St. Thomas without booking a traditional cruise-line excursion, this video will give you two very different ways to experience the island. You’ll see: • Walking from the St. Thomas cruise port • Exploring Charlotte Amalie • The 99 Steps • Blackbeard’s Castle • Bluebeard’s Castle • Transportation options • What we spent on each trip • What we’d do differently next time • Tips for planning your own St. Thomas port day And make sure you stay with us for the final comparison—of what these two St. Thomas days cost us???? Which St. Thomas day would YOU choose? Tell us in the comments.
