Daniel ( Danny) is the BEST - Double the fun tour was the greatest tour company. Daniel(Danny) was the best tour guide you could ask for. We was together for about 4hrs. and when our tour was over we felt like he was family. When I say we had the BEST time ever trust me. My husband & I hated when the tour ended that’s how much fun we were having. We toured the Dutch & the French side when I say a beautiful island. Can’t wait to go back. Book this company and tour and write a review and in the review let me know if you feel the same way. I’m booking our girls trip 2025 with Daniel he’s the best. Thanks Daniel for a memorable vacay & tour. God Bless you all!

Fantastic tour with Jo-Sa - Jo-Sa was a fantastic guide. He was a safe driver, took us each place listed on tour, but he added in a couple extra stops based on our preference. Since no one else was booked, if we asked for 5 minutes here, 1 hour there, we got it.
Jo-Sa with Double the Fun tours was very knowledgeable, friendly and easy to understand. US born, he has lived on St. Maarten for 20 years. We highly recommend this tour.

2 Beaches & Some Shopping! - This excursion started out rocky due to a mix up with the reservation so there was a lot of time spent trying to find our guide however Daniel (our guide) stepped up & made up for it. He was a great guide who took us up to a high peek on the island to get a beautiful view. From there we went to Orient beach which was just ok (you have to buy a drink in order to use the restroom in one of the bars). The water was a little rough for my comfort so we sat on the beach & drank a frozen drink before heading over to explore the Nude Beach. After an hour & a half we left to go to Marigot for some shopping however we did not have cash…..which is a must! From there we spent about 20-30 minutes at Maho beach & managed to catch 3 planes coming in in that short time which was great! Our 4 hours flew by but we had a great time.

Not worth the money - Jose was a friendly guide. It can be a little nerve racking to get in a stranger’s personal vehicle and exploring unfamiliar territory, but Jose made us feel at home. The downside to our experience is that it was VERY difficult to find him, which made us think we were scammed. After asking SEVERAL people, being re-directed multiple times and waiting in the heat, we eventually found him. We did not get any of the beverages that were supposed to come with our tour, and we were expected to pay for his lunch, without any appreciation from Jose. Additionally, the information and stories that Jose told us during our tour were not all true, as we did some research afterwards. All in all, I would not recommend spending the amount of money that we did for this experience.

Not all that was promised - Jose was difficult to find. Other drivers, his friends called him. The promised water/rum punch was not to be seen.
We stopped for lunch mid-tour and went where he wanted- no options given. The bill came and he didn’t try to pay for his lunch - I guess it was expected that we would. We did, but it wasn’t acknowledged. The stories, while interesting, especially regarding hurricane Irma, turned out to be hyper exaggerated (we fact checked upon return to the ship). I would suggest going with a larger, more vetted company.

Would not recommend - Our ‘tour’ guide Kimberly picked us up in an SUV, no others on tour. Took us to Orient beach (clothing optional…didn’t inform of that) with stops along the way for photo ops. Asked if we wanted to go to bird sanctuary (extra admission fee) or to see iguanas. We declined. Then took us to Maho beach where we spent 90 minutes and saw several commercial planes and private jets pass over beach. Then took us back to the cruise port. Never took us to Marigot and no advertised refreshments were offered. Would not recommend this tour but Kimberly was polite and friendly. Felt more like a private taxi than a tour.

Never Showed Up! - Never showed up! Did not respond to messages through the Viator system and phone number wasn’t working. Other tour guides knew who our driver was supposed to be and said they hadn’t seen him lately. Viator should find someone else for these tours or not offer them!
