More Than A 3-Hour Tour... Amazing Experience
Elaine A,May 4, 2026
- Review from Viator
5.00I knew this was going to be a great tour but it wound up being more wonderful than I hoped for. We had the best catamaran experience on the Magic Time with Captain Lisandro and First Mate Eddy. It was us two (me/Tim) and another guest (young woman). We didn't snorkel because my guy only had his glasses and he needed his contacts to see under water. It was fine as we enjoyed watching the other boats and the view was just beautiful as we soaked our feet in the water by the stern (back of boat). The other guest did go snorkeling on her own and the gentleman that he is, First Mate, Eddy, got his gear on to keep her company snorkeling and we thought that was so sweet. Eddy makes a great rum punch and we had delicious baguette sandwiches which was just enough for us. Captain Lisandro gave us a tour at the different areas we stopped at and he took pictures of us, as did Eddy and were happy to do it for us. We wound up suiting up with life vests and just hanging/swimming in the water at another location and I laid on the mat just taking it all in. The sun was great, the water was divine. Both Captain Lisandro and First Mate Eddy were keeping an eye on all of us for safety. I forgot to mention Eddy did give us a safety training which was helpful in case of an emergency when we first boarded. The sailing was relaxing and we had an amazing time. Both Lisandro and Eddy were very attentive and kind, as well as knowledgeable on the area/St. Maarten. We didn't really want a 5 or 6 hour tour so when I saw this 3 hour tour available, I thought it would be just enough time and for us it was ideal. We did go to Maho Beach to watch planes land and it was a totally different perspective from the water which was even better. On the return, I sat up front and just enjoyed the ride as well as the music playing; it was all great fun. We were so happy to do this tour with Lisandro and Eddy and when we return in the future, we would like to do it again and hopefully they are available to sail. We highly recommend this tour. They were great guys and guides! You will have the best time!
Fantastic fun boating

5.00The views were amazing, we got some great videos of planes landing at Maho Beach. Captain Alessandro and first mate Charlie were awesome and so much fun. We were a small group but we had lots of fun, drinks and food. Stopped for snorkeling and did a lot of swimming near the beach. We highly recommend this trip!
Great excursion

5.00Fun day on the ocean. Captain and crew were great, very friendly and knowledgeable about the island. Food and drinks supplied, excellent bbq lunch. I thought 6 hours might be too long, but it went by quickly. Got to snorkel and swim off the boat in 3 different places. Would highly recommend.
Tropical Time is THE trip to be on!
