Drake's Seat Tours and Tickets
1,240 Reviews
For one of the best views on St. Thomas, make the drive to the mountaintop perch at Drake’s Seat. Here you can keep lookout over Magens Bay and the British Virgin Islands, just as Sir Francis Drake was said to do from this very spot in order to catch pirates, privateers and invading naval ships approaching from the north via Drake’s Passage, also bearing his name. Today, this lookout point sports a stone platform with a bench atop it, and it’s a popular top for tour groups. The crowds mostly disperse by evening however, making Drake’s Seat an ideal spot to take in the sunset.

Join "G", a local Virgin Islander, as he takes you on your very own off-road adventure.
Why join us?
Bushman: G knows all about the fauna and flora, and what bush you need to drink to keep healthy. Don't be surprised when he pulls up to a bush, breaks off a branch and has you smell, taste or feel the island bush or fruit.
City Streets: Growing up on the island and playing on the side streets as a youth has afforded him the knowledge of the complex, winding streets of Charlotte Amalie. Where others dare not venture, he goes!
Island Topography: from the twists and turns, to the highest points on the island, to the amazing beaches, and roads that look like donkey paths, you will see it all.
Local folklore/Customs: from the story of Cow Foot Lady to learning about the greeting of the day, you'll get in the island spirit with G as your guide to all things cultural.
Listen & Learn: learn the island idioms, hear the island accent (it's English!) and just have fun!
