Chill Fun - The lunch was better than expected. Nice cruise excursion. The operator was very cognizant of the cruise departure schedule.

Just book it - you'll be glad you did - Great experience and wonderful day. Crew was great, itinerary was perfect and not rushed, had us back in plenty of time to board the cruise ship. This is the second time we've done this in St. Maarten and it's been fantastic both times. Food is included along with beer and rum punch. Bring sunscreen. Don't bother with the cruise ship excursions -- book this!

Awesome way to spend the day - This was super fun excursion. Even if you don’t swim or snorkel, great way to see the islands. Damien and Nacho were great and made sure everyone was having a great time

The BEST of St. Maarten indeed! - What an amazing experience! We were in town for the day as our cruise ship was docked, and this looked like a great option. It was a simple walk from the cruise port, around 10 minutes, and we found the meeting point easily. Captain Sammy and First Mate Merritt (hope I spelled that right, sorry if not!) were simply the best! We had a beautiful drive thru the harbor and gawked at all of the yachts. Then Sammy opened up the engines and we had a thrilling ride across the water to our first stop. Two snorkeling spots, a stop to visit some friendly iguanas, a delicious BBQ lunch in Grand Case, and the highlight: sitting in the water at Maho Beach, right under the flight path as multiple planes landed at the airport. We had water, soft drinks, beer, and rum punch all day, and were well taken care of. We had only 17 people onboard, ranging in age from 5 to over 60. Everyone came away happy, we had SO much fun, we loved our experience, and we'll definitely be back!

Best island excursion we’ve ever experienced! - This was the most amazing cruise excursion we’ve ever been on! Samuel and Merit took us around the entire island ( both Dutch and French), showed us amazing things and places we would never have seen on our own, found wonderful snorkeling spots, let us experience airplanes taking off and landing over our boat, and were incredible hosts. Highly recommend this 6 hour excursion— well worth the money!

Sammy and Lucas were fantastic guides for fun filled day on the water - Best excursion from our Celebrity cruise. I'm so glad we ventured from the Celebrity offerings and booked this on our own. Our boat did not look like what is in the photo. It was a bit larger (and probably more comfortable for the choppy seas we experienced). We had a group of 12 which was a perfect size and not packed full like our prior excursion was the day prior. From arrival at the meeting spot to the end of the day, our guides Sammy and Lucas were fantastic. They were constantly ensuring all guests were comfortable, had what they needed, and had a beverage in hand (their rum punch was fantastic). Sammy is a WEALTH of information about the island and can answer any question you may be asking. I would highly recommend this excursion as a great way to experience St. Maarten.

Safe, Enjoyable, Relaxing - Junior & Hutch captained our full day around SXM. Very safe & they always made sure that we had a cold drink. Lots of swim spots & they also filled us in on the history & local lore. Plate Lunch at LoLo was fabulous & some nice small shops to browse. Never felt rushed and every minute of this all day excursion was enjoyable. Saw lots of wildlife - fish, turtles, iguanas - and more. Would absolutely do again on a return to SXM!

Action packed, beautiful day on the water - Sammy and Nacho were great captains on our trip today. It was very windy and the itinerary had to be changed some but the day turned out wonderful. The powerboat is fast and a lot of fun! We snorkeled with sea turtle, starfish, reef fish. Excellent lunch. They were very knowledgeable about the area and gave us a lot of information on our boat ride also. Relaxing, fun, and beautiful day!

All day view of St Maarten/Saint Martin from the sea - Captain Niko and mate Marit were great hosts. Captain Niko handled the Atlantic seas with skill as we circumnavigated Sint Maarten/Saint Martin counter clockwise. Our lunch at Lolo's in Grand Case was tasty.
