5.00William was very informative. Learned about the history of Dutch and French parts of island. Refreshments offered. Time at beach was an hour, so wear bathing suit so you can go swimming if you want. Only negative was the tour was a little too long. Close to 5 1/2 hours. Was worried about getting back to cruise ship as roads were crowded.
Excellent tour of St. Martin Island

4.00Our escort driver was really excellent! He made us discover the island on the French and Dutch side with great passion. We would have liked to have had time to walk to Fort St-Louis during the stop at Magigot Market. We recommend the activity!

5.00We booked a trip in UK with Viator our first time doing this as we were on a cruise. It was well organised and we found the meeting point easily. Others members of our trip didn’t show so we ended up having a personal tour with our guide William. He was brilliant, good fun and knowledgeable about the unusually dynamics of the islands Dutch and French. We enjoyed our tour and would definitely recommend Viator and William. Thank you for making our day memorable. Gail and Frank

5.00This is the 2nd time we did this tour. The first was in 2016. It was just as we remembered the island. Densel was amazing! He was professional, very knowledgeable, proud of his country and treated us guests as his own. We highly recommend this tour and definitely, Densel!
Well Worth It!

5.00Our driver/guide was funny and informative. Lots of jokes and laughs as we drive around the island. Wish we had more time at each beach as 45 mins was not enough to enjoy throughly. But it was cool to see both sides of the island and learn about how things are run.
