Does anyone know if we can pre-book a taxi to take us from STT airport to Red Hook? We dislike waiting for the vans to fill and having to drop other passengers off along the way. Would love to have the name(s) and contact info of any companies that do this.

Try: http://www.islandertaxiservice.com/.

And for reference from the St. Thomas taxi rate sheet "Any person requesting a taxi exclusively for themselves are as follows: Airport to Red Hook: $90 for 1-4 passengers, (5 or more passengers add $15 for each additional person)."

My wife are heading to St John for the first time in May. Have been going to Grand Cayman for the past few years and want to try someplace else. My question. Is there a ferry that leave from Amalie? If so, how much would a ball park figure be to get a taxi to there. I would rather spend time on the water than in the back of a cab. Thanks

At the top right of this page are Quick Links and you can get right to the ferry schedule from there. The ferry service between Charlotte Amalie and St John is less frequent than that between Red Hook and St John so it depends on what time your flight arrives which one you would take. Under the St Thomas link top of this page you can scroll down to the taxi rates. Enjoy your visit!

I guess I am the weird one
I always like, no enjoy, the cab ride over to Red Hook

Just looking around - climbing the hill looking back over CA
Chatting up the driver

When we leave STJ we alway catch the ferry back to CA vice Red Hook
Not sure why...

wxhsbnd, a taxi from the airport to the area the St. John ferry leaves from in Charlotte Amalie is $6 pp, ow plus luggage fees. A flat rate of $2 per bag shall be added to the fare for each passenger. The rate for items greater than 30"x20" shall not exceed $4 per item. The pp rate is in a shared taxi. As the original poster mentioned taxis at the airport wait to fill with people going in the same direction before heading off. If you wanted a private taxi, from airport to town/Charlotte Amalie it is $55 for 1-4 passengers, (5 or more passengers add $7 for each additional person).
