Did Island Time in April - there were 6 in our group. When I was explaining it to the crew, I had it as about $130pp +tips (each way) for the ferry. The water taxi was about $245pp (each way, and I think I included the tips in that number). These numbers include the taxis required to get to each place.

First, I can definitely say that it was worth the extra $100pp each way. Service from everyone (two different taxi drivers and boat drivers - two different boats) was impeccable. Drinks we aboard the boats in a cooler, and SO nice to hang out in the boat while the Captain took care of checking us into and out the BVI (you have to go check into the USVI). No lines anywhere! No waiting - anywhere!

Not only that, 4 of the crew were 2 hours late (just sitting on the tarmac in Charlotte) - taxi driver was tracking their flight, we were in touch while my wife and I hung out at the bar and waited, and as soon as they had their luggage, away we all went. Never would have caught the afternoon ferry had we tried to head over when they got there.

Getting dropped off and picked up at the marina where TWT is homed is a next level experience. Pile the bags at the end of the dock, drop them in the boat, and off you go! No dealing with the C&I guys or the ferry guys (no hearing "I take care of the bags, you take care of me") and no standing in line.

Should you decide to do it, you will likely never ask these questions again. I blame MIDiver for getting me doing this! Honestly, if it was just my wife and I (or possibly even just me alone) I would probably use Island Time.

Your mileage may vary!
