BennyandBo Posted January 22, 2023 Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 OK, so I've been reading and it seems prices may have gone up. People were saying from port to Megan's bay was about $8 per person each way. Now I just read someone paid $15 pp each way. (Big jump) Anyone done it real recently?

twangster Posted January 22, 2023 Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 I guess that happens when there are no tourists for two years. Plus gas prices on island are always higher than mainland. When gas hits $4 on the mainland it reaches $6 on St. Thomas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BennyandBo Posted January 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 My point was based on the fact that part of my "cut the cord" included excursions with Royal. As it's always been said you can do better on your own vs there mark up. I'm finding that the contracted rates they made in 2022 for 2023 are better than the current fluctuating prices on everything (including transportation). Royals Megan's bay excursion. Was $54 pp. Now taxi at $15pp each way = $60. Plus $10 ($5 each) entry to beach = $70, plus $20 for 2 beach chairs = $90. (I believe more with umbrella). So much for savings. LOL.
