From the start of this tour, we were very disappointed. To begin with there was no clear indication where we would meet our driver. After 1/2 hour we were finally directed to the port gate where he had been waiting. The condition of our tour vehicle was unacceptable. One of the passenger inside door handles was missing, the vehicle was was old and there was a for Sadie sign on the windshield. We were expecting at least somewhat of a guided tour with some history of the island and interesting facts, but instead had to ask about anything that might be interesting. Our driver took us to the town called Marigo where he wanted us to know that he was responsible for having a culvert full of rotting dead fish opened up to relieve the problem. He had to go visit the workers while we just wandered through the stench. Very little else happened after that except for a drive through the capitals of both Saint Martin’s and return to our ship. Overall, the tour was a huge mistake.

Fabulous. Just fabulous. So informative and interesting and detailed info about the island which she clearly loves to call home. We had some lovely stops and were allowed to stay as long as we wanted. The market stop was fab and the beaches were amazing. Lovely vehicle very comfortable. Communication beforehand was brilliant and if and when I go again I would definitely use them again and would recommend them to everyone. Thank you again for a lovely morning ☺️

Very disappointing, very expensive $300 for what we got, we thought the tour guide would inform us about the history of St Maarten. That did not happen he was very nice, but did not give any information about the area. Our first stop was to a bird aviary which was cool, then fed the iguanas, then we stopped for lunch which the chicken I ordered was raw, so needless to say was awful, they did take it off our bill. After that the driver took us back to our cruise ship. Again very disappointing!

The experience wasn’t great. This company did not provide details On how nor where to find the driver. We wasted 20 minutes trying to find him and the phone number didn’t work. It was expensive and there was no way to see the things outlined on the description of the tour. We only saw half of them!

It was my first time on the island and David showed me around. He made me comfortable and safe. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Great tour! The driver David was friendly and informative. At our request we went to Parrotville and Maho Beach (and enjoyed both) as well as a general tour to the French side and a stop at Jesus' walk. Maho beach was very crowded so we didn't stay long but it was fun to watch the planes come in overhead. Traffic between Maho beach and Philipsburg can be heavy so plan accordingly.

David treated us to a great experience on St. Maarten. He had several places in mind and we were able to add some more. The lunch was at an excellent restaurant. I would highly recommend this tour and David was awesome!!

First let me say David, our guide, was a nice guy. He was on time and he got us back to our hotel by the time we asked him to. However, we found the tour to be very disappointing. We went to the bird park, which was nice but we were rushed thru it by David, then the iguana stop was just some bushes on the side of the road. A stop and walk at the Jesus rock was nice but nothing that special. Last, he took us to a place to have a local lunch. We invited him to sit with us and he was doing social media the entire time. The lunch was good, but it took an hour of our 3 hour tour time. He took pictures of us throughout the tour and without our permission posted them on the tour company’s web site. He did not post our names, but someone who values being private/not online having the pictures taken and posted would not be appreciated. Last we had friends that took a three hour taxi tour in St Maarten with a knowledgeable guy and they only paid $130 vs the steep price charged for this tour. We cannot recommend this tour.
