I was in St. Thomas last May and we had an awesome cab driver, Winnifred, who took us everywhere we wanted to go. I'll be back again in May and would love to call her up and have her drive us around again! We originally found her at Bluebeard's Castle and she drives a maroon van (I believe). Does anyone know her and do you have her number? She is great!
Hello Sunshine,
Do you know anything else; I called a friend who is a taxi driver and she said there are quite a few Winnifreds and she said there was a lady with a maroon van up at Bluebeards but she drives a safari now and is stationed at the cruise ship docks - not sure if its the same person because my friend didn't know the lady's name but is trying to find out. If you had more info like her TP number or which association she was with that would be great.

Hello Sunshine,
Found some information for you; I think the taxi driver you are looking for TP number is 360 so you can call the VI taxi Association at (340)7747457 and have them put a call out on the radio to TP 360 and then you can see if it fact its the Winnifred you are looking for and get her direct contact information.

Oh, wow-- I'm trying to remember... I've asked my friends who were with me for any extra info and will let you know. I do remember that Winnifred is married and has children. I believe she has a brother who lives in Georgia. We met a couple while we were in St. Thomas and the man was blind and played the piano. Winnifred took all of us all around St. Thomas. The blind man played piano at Blackbeard's one night and Winnifred joined us-- he played "Georgia on my Mind" in honor of her brother!
Hello Sunshine,
My taxi driver friend was pretty confident that the Winnifred you are looking for is the one she found the TP number for. The TP number identifies the taxi driver and Winnifred is TP 360. So if you call the VI taxi assication as suggested at (340)774-7457 the radio dispatcher will put a call out to TP 360 and Winnifred should answer.

Thanks! We'll try that!
