Wonderfully planned - Our guide Eddy was exceptional, we definitely got our money's worth for the excellent time!

Excellent - I decided to book the island tour through Viator for my St.Maarten. It was the best decision I made for our trip. Rollin York was our travel guide. He was so awesome and friendly. He arrived on time and made us very comfortable from the beginning. He was very informative about his country. He had snacks and drinks for us. We made all the stops listed in the tour so we got what we paid for unlike other visitors who booked through their hotel. We were very satisfied. It was my son’s 14th birthday and was treated extra special. We stopped off at a lady on the road that had hundreds of iguanas where my son was very excited. When we toured the French side we stopped off and had some tasty local food. I would recommend Rollin York- St. Maarten Presidential tours through Viator.

Highly Recommend! - Amazing tour and highly recommend! We just got back last week and it’s their slow season so it ended up being a private tour in a clean, air-conditioned van. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and fun! We loved learning about the island and would definitely do this tour again!

The amazing tour ever - The tour was perfect, but our guide tour was more than perfect. Everything was amazing. I definitely recommend this tour to my friends. I am so sorry I don’t remember the name of our driver because he did a lot of jokes even with his name.
I will remember for a long time this tour. We went to a lot of places and we got a lot of exploring for this island.

Great Island Tour - Tony the Tiger was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and a good, safe driver. We were so impressed with him we used his service to take us around the Island for the remainder of our trip. Very reliable and a very nice man.

Nice tour that covered much of the island. Had stops at two beaches- orient beach and the plane beach. - Very hospitable driver that asked how long we would like at each stop. Told jokes and had a lot of information on the area on both sides of the island.

Enjoyed it, but it could have been better - Tour guide arrived late and was knowledgeable, but we sat in the back row of the van and it was difficult to hear at times; difficult to see out of the back window; and the air conditioning was inadequate for those sitting in the back row. The van needs to be replaced or updated.
Also, we had visited the island before and stayed at the beautiful Marriott resort. One of the passengers made a ridiculous comment regarding why tourists would stay in an isolated location, which we did not entertain to avoid any tension for the other group, but the driver did comment. It is condescending for a tour guide to waste our time commenting on or trying to rational travelers’ personal choices.
We enjoyed our oceanfront stay and enjoyed having the rental car to explore more of the beautiful island. We did not schedule the tour to listen to nonsense.
