Easy and Fun - Our bus driver/tour guide was fantastic! Was on time and this was a great excursion. This was my first time doing an excursion outside of the cruise and it was simple.

Exhilarating - Our drive was prompt, courteous, friendly and very informative. He got us to the venue/beach early before it got too crowded to find a table. He showed us where to meet him for the return trip and again, he was exceptionally prompt and friendly!

Love Maho! - Service was great and hosts were outstanding! I never book this excursion through the cruise line- Viator has better prices and reliable service. Only negative is it was hard to find the meeting location.
Maho didn’t disappoint. Our kids love the crazy waves and watching the airplanes come in. We walked far down to the right of the beach for more sandy area.

Great transfer and Maho Beach experience - It was easy to find the white tents. The drive was long due to no easy route to Maho. The driver's info of the area and rum punch helped pass the time well. The pick up was easy too once you get around the Taxis trying to get you use them to get back to the cruise port. This was so much fun though crowded for Spring Break. It was smart bringing a large oversized towel for the family to use and the cruise ship towels to dry off. There were lots of planes of various sizes that landed right over us. The key was to set up just outside of the jet blast and just high enough for a wave to not drench your stuff.

Airplanes so close you feel they will hit you - This was so much fun. Pay the $10 for 2 chairs and an umbrella near the Sunset bar. We had a relaxing afternoon on the beach, and the planes, which were plentiful, were a bonus. The free rum punch is good, but you get about 3 ounces, and he put it away. No seconds were offered. Good drop off and pick up area with interesting information going to the beach.

Waste of money - Our driver was fabulous! He was entertaining and gave us history lessons as we traveled to the beach.
Getting to the pick up area was very difficult. There was no signage and very little direction on where to go. White tent at end of pier was our only direction. It was way past the end of the pier and still no signage. The trip itself was not what we expected. There was very little beach and it was packed. Also there are locals there trying to scam you into buying items or getting your hair braided. Just nothing what I expected, disappointed for sure.

TERRIBLE! DON’T RECCOMEND. - Tour left without us.! We were few minutes late walking from the ship to the meeting place. Called the operator several times, no answer. The operator never bothered to even message to see where we were. I have used Viator many times before. The operator always checks and confirms. I DONT RECOMMEND THiS ToUR.
