Wonderful tour of a wonderful place - We had a fantastic time in beautiful st Maarten, our tour guide / driver was great fun and made the day even better. We visited both sides of the island including the infamous Maho beach, more than one small drink would have been appreciated ☺️

Family Easter trip - The beaches are very crowded due to the holiday season and that made it hard to enjoy the trip. Not that there was anything you could do about it.

Recpmmended Excursion! - Be sure to ask for specific instructions on where to meet. We got off the ship early to make sure we would be able to find where we needed to go, and we were thankful we did that. Once we checked in, we met our driver Wellington. He was fantastic!! He took us to Orient Beach first. We paid for our chairs and umbrella (which came with a free drink) and enjoyed our two hours at the beach. This beach is right next to a nude beach so be warned if it's not something you are wanting to see. After two hours we headed to Maho Beach. Wellington was a great tour guide and provided us with a lot of information about the local life. We were at Maho Beach for around an hour. It is a very busy beach! It is small and many people want to come and watch the planes take off and land. The waves were unforgiving and not something I would recommend for small children at all! We enjoyed our short time on the beach. The trip was as expected, and we were back in plenty of time to shop before we needed to be back on the ship. Highly recommend!

Excellent Service and Great Tour! - Booked the tour through AAA and was so happy we did! Had a great tour with a very knowledgeable tour guide and driver. I am not a beach person so the time we spent (about 2 hours at each beach) was perfect for me. Would definitely book again with Amigo tours. Well done!

Make sure you know where you meet the bus. - DO NOT trust Viator map. Said we would be picked up on the pier. You are not. Without directions it took us 30 minutes to find the pick up spot. We missed the bus. To their credit they paid for our cab to meet the bus. The guide was great.

Viator doesn’t care - Spent the better part of 30 minutes wandering around the St Martin pier trying to find the tour representative. Asked numerous tour guides from other companies if they knew where Amigo tours your subcontractor met guests and got different answers from each. Finally talked to a security person who called Amigo and was told they left. They didn’t ask to speak to me and offered no solution.
