Secret treasure at St. Thomas

My husband and I accidentally got on the local jitney bus instead of on a bus that would take us back to the ship. We found that the local buses do a complete circuit of the island, constantly running, and will drop you off at any point anywhere. All you do is stand at a point on the road to return. cost? $1 per few stops. We went on a total circuit of the island and gave them $10. You can take this bus to Sapphaire Beach, by the way.

How long will the total trip take? Is there many stops?

[Scott Taylor]

Wow that's a great tip, thanks! Also would like to know how long to total trip would take and how often the buses stop at each stop if anyone knows

[Dwayne]

Yes the locals always tell me to take the bus. I have not tried it yet. I do use the Gypsy Taxis sometimes.

Is this a safe way to go with children?

IslandCruz,
Sounds like you have some serious pinned up anger issues about parenting.
Get help!

[Rahmig]

Thanks for the great info. How close to the cruise ships does the local bus stop. Do You have to walk far?

[Dwayne]

cotefamily,

It does seem to come across that way sometimes. I don't think I need to seek help, a good rant every so often seems to work when they get pent up

Anyway here is a link with some info.
