The meet up point was a bit unorganized. We arrived 30 minutes prior to our booking time. We were told to have a seat and after waiting for almost an hour, we were never checked in and had to be placed with a different group. The tour guide took us to a restaurant for lunch (to which he seemed to know one of the employees personally). We waited a very long time for our food and because of that, we could not enjoy lunch in the restaurant, instead, had to carry it out and eat it uncomfortably on our laps. Everything felt very “winging it”. The morning was rainy so maybe that contributed to the not so great experience.

What a FANTASTIC day!! Alex of Bernard's Tours was an amazing host on Sint Maarten/Saint Martin. He was so fun and informative, bringing us all over the island. He stopped at many beautiful places so we could take pictures, an Iguana farm, and an early afternoon stop at the gorgeous Orient Bay Beach. After a dip and a beach-side beverage, we went onto the capital, Marigot, to enjoy some French pastries on our own. We then went to famous Maho Beach in time for the international jets arriving at Princess Juliana International literally over our heads while on the gorgeous (small) beach. Alex had a cooler filled with ice cold water, soda, and his uncle Bernard's famous rum punch--served in small 2 oz cups for a reason! We would recommend this excursion to anyone and everyone who is visiting for their first, or thirty-first visit to this spectacular island.

This is a must when visiting St Maarten. Mailman was our guide. He knows both sides of the island. Very informative and lively. His rum punch is so yummy. Best tour we have ever taken.

This was an awesome tour! We went as a group of four riding on 3 atv's. There was supposed to be another group but they were running behind. Instead of making us wait, they gave us a tour with just us. It was great. It seemed like the tour went longer than planned which was a pleasant surprise. We made some stops throughout the tour. Had chances to jump in the water and grab a drink or food in almost every stop. We had lunch included with our tour that was delicious. Then we hung out and talked with Roberto and Jose for a while afterwards. 2 really cool guys. Great way to see the island and a way you wouldn't otherwise be able to. I'd even go again cause they said they'd take us to new locations!

Roberto went out of his way to make our atv trip fun. We went around the whole island both the Dutch and French sides. Had a blast

St. Maarten was beautiful. Our driver-guide(the mailman) was outstanding! He showed on his visor map where we were going and had a great history of the island. The beach was breathtaking. It was so fun to go to the beach at the airport and watch the planes land. They fly right over you! Awesome tour and guide!

Mailman (our tour guide) was fantastic. Started the tour on time and had great information about all parts of the island. Plenty of time to have photo stops, shopping, and beach time. Came back to the cruise port with plenty of time. Tour started at 9:30 am and returned to port around 3pm. Highly recommend!

Unfortunately, the German-speaking excursion could not take place. It was cancelled. Of course, this can always happen. It was just annoying that we hadn't been contacted before. We were sent to the meeting point at 09:30 to be informed that the excursion was not happening. So there was also no possibility for us to find something adequate in a hurry. But the money was quickly refunded.

The Mailman did not disappoint with his knowledge of the islands and picking the best stops to enjoy our day. We had an enjoyable and relaxing day. The French pastries are always a treat and seeing the planes at Maho checked off a new site for us on this trip.
