Creator's Key Takeaways

We are exploring Tortola with virtually no plan. Okay, we have a little bit of a plan. We have rented a car, but other than that we don't really have GPS set up or anything.

We're driving on the opposite side of the road. This is so interesting. Look. How gorgeous is that, girls? We're driving along the ocean.

We made it all the way around the island with our paper map. That's not drawn to scale. We've not killed each other.

If you don't want to do dinner you don't have to go to dinner. You can have room service in your room. You just make it your own.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Rent a car to explore Tortola independently if you have young kids who don't meet excursion age requirements.
βœ“Use a paper map or set up GPS for navigation, as street signs are rare in Tortola.
βœ“Take advantage of the ship's flexibility to skip formal dinners and DIY your evening.
