Great tour - Easy pickup from the tour parking lot next to the pier. Our driver King David was funny and very informative. We got to swim at Orient Beach, see the planes land by Maho Beach, saw the capitals of both sides (Marigot and Philipsburg). Overall, a great tour!

Great Beach Day! - Denzel was fabulous!! Informative, kind and funny. Orient Beach was beautiful and Maho was crowded but still a worthy experience. Highly recommend amigo tours and Denzel specifically.

Awesome Experience. I been using this website for years. It never failed me yet.. - It was an awesome experience…Our tour guy Denzel made it a lot of fun!! Very informative. We loved your hospitality with your drinks.. He gave us enough time to explore the (2) beaches and he brought us back to the cruise ship in enough time to explore the pier prior to boarding the ship again.. Standing on the beach looking up at the low flying planes was awesome!. Thank you Viator for having awesome employees.

Hard to find at the port, but great tour! - Denzel was an amazing tour guide, thank you! We did, however, have a really hard time finding the tour company at the port. We had to ask officers several times and were still lost, late, and happened to stumble into the right area after our group had left. They were kind enough to add us to a new group, but the issue could have been avoided with signage or better instructions on where to meet the tour. They dropped us at Orient Beach and we had plenty of room to relax in chairs on the beach with umbrellas. Mayo beach was packed but we found a bar in the area to the left that had plenty of open seating and its own private beach to enjoy. We ran into awful traffic on the way back to port and Denzel made sure to keep everyone calm. He reached out to the port about the delay and really took great care of us all.

The trip to the beach on... - The trip to the beach on February 2, was a good bus ride. Our driver Kenneth was courteous and a fun person to have as tour guide. He explained St. Maarten/Martin very well. We were not able to do activities at Orient Bay, and we could not get to Maho Beach. The weather was HORRIBLE!! but you all did not have any control over that. Travelers should know that traffic will be very heavy and backed up at times.

Viator & Amigo dropped the ball. - We booked this tour with a pickup at our hotel. Our pickup was for 10 am. We were in the lobby at 9:30 and waited till about 10:15. With no driver arriving. We tried contacting someone from Amigo and Viator. We could not reach anyone locally, and finally we were able to reach someone at the Viator corporate customer service. They were also unable to reach anyone from the local tour operator. We wasted a half day of our vacation trying to get answers and possibly salvage some of our trip. We were given a refund, but there should also have been a service recovery additional credit to offset the loss of our vacation time and huge inconvenience. Even an a small gesture for airport transfer, at no cost, would have helped to reduce the sting of this terrible experience. The worst part of this was the lack of response to our calls , texts, chats and emails.
