Amazing time at Maho Beach - Our driver was exceptional. Went out of his way to improve our tour. Provided details about the area as we were driving to the beach. Highly recommend this tour. Also, this tour was much cheaper than the excursion sold through the cruise line!!

Amazing planes landing and the French side - Fantastic trip to visit the French side of the island and then plenty of time at Maho Beach to see the planes landing just over our heads.

Bucketlister - I honestly can't praise this company and staff enough. There was a mix up with our docking time from our ship and we had no Internet so couldn't contact them. By the time we found them I was anxious and stressed however within 5 minutes Chris had calmed me down and we were in a 8 seater with just us and Rawlin( spelling?) starting the trip of a lifetime. We are treated like VIPs the whole day and Rawlin was the perfect tour guide. I asked loads of questions as I'm a but of a socioeconomic geek. He was patient and so kind and I learned loads about both sides of the island. Chris picked us up at Maho for our transfer home and managed to calm a situation where fellow guests were extremely rude to us, by handing us a beer and taking us to a rum distillery as an extra stop. Well done Chris. You were amazing. If anyone is visiting here I cannot recommend these guys enough. It was always a dream of ours to visit St Maarten and these guys just made it perfect. Can't thank them enough.

Smooth transportation! - Had a great tour around the island on the way to Maho Beach. Our guide took us to a lookout spot for good pictures and then to a small town to grab some lunch and shopping before heading to the beach. The place he recommended to grab for for an early lunch was awesome. Along the way he provided beer, rum punch and water. After we were done at Maho Beach he took us back to the port and was really great with a group who enjoyed the day at the bar!! Thanks again, we had a great day!

Nadia was wonderful - Nadia was a wonderful guide. We had a great time hearing about and seeing both sides of the island. Maho beach was very crowded so we got a day pass at the resort for a few hours. Highly recommend

Excellent value! Two capitals, and Maho Beach is a must-see - There was some confusion in the morning about which groups meet at what time, and some of us were unhappy when told we would not be visiting the places that we thought we had signed up for. However, the driver, Efry did a phenomenal job of organizing the day's tour. Multiple tour groups had gotten consolidated into one van, but Efry went above and beyond in making sure everyone got to see the sights that they originally signed up for. While I had to take one star off the company for the somewhat chaotic organization, I would give Efry 6 stars if I could; he was given a tough task of shuttling all the passengers around to the various destinations they were supposed to go, and he was fantastic. The highlight of the tour for me was Maho beach. It was such a blast (literally) to see the planes so close!

Poorly run and overbooked - We waited over 2 hrs with a large crowd of other people. You could see and hear the owner/boss calling whomever he could to try and get more vehicles. They finally got a vehicle for the last of us that were still waiting. The driver didn't even work for this company. I heard the owner ask him for a business card and tell him where to take us. There were several groups on our mini bus and we all had different itineraries. What we actually got....... mind blowing. Dude drove us up a big hill in the middle of nowhere and told us he'd be back for us in 3 hours. It was legit a dirt path with nothing around it. We all refused to get off the bus and he took us back to the meeting tent. Of course, the business was nowhere to be found. I asked security and explained what happened. They said that driver took us to a hiking trail meant for a tour company with a hiking guide. We all expected shopping and Maho Beach, so we were wearing bathing suits and flip flops. We ended up paying $18/p round trip for a cab to Maho. So much easier! The cabs are everywhere. Maybe this company is good when there are no other ships in port, but for us and a hundred plus others it was a complete cluster. Waiting on my refund.
