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.

Two Beautiful Beaches in one day! - Our tour guide, Kay, was FANTASTIC! Our tour ran on time, was organized, provided cold drinks on board and Kay gave us the history of the area. Orient Beach was gorgeous with many options for food and drinks from local restaurants. Mago beach did not disappoint! Private and commercial flights flew overhead, the beach was clean and there was plenty of restaurant/bar options to grab lunch or a drink. 10/10 experience! Our guide was amazing!

What a great day - What a great day we had on this trip. The pick up location is so easy to find as well. Our bus driver, Don, was very knowledgeable and comical and well aware it was our holiday and willing to do what we wanted. He stopped at many places for pictures etc, we were the only 2 passengers. Orient Bay is absolutely stunning and Maho beach was a bucket list item for me. We had plenty of Rum punch available to us too. I can highly recommend this trip, especially for the low price, Thank you Don, we had a great day.

Skip this. - Cannot enthusiastically recommend. As incredible as Orient beach was, sandy, warm, with beautiful views, Maho beach was garbage! Insanely crowded, rocky, small. The only attraction is planes coming in 30' over your head.

Great Driver, Not Great Service - Your driver was very informative on our Orient and Maho Beach tour as he explained in great deal about the island. Your front desk staff was nonattentive and rude. We showed up an hour early because the tour was advertised as ship time. She never told us we were early and to use local time. After we waited and then asked what was going on she acted like we were bothering her. Then we waited even longer after the local time to get our ride. I would not use this tour service when there are others on the island.
