Great tour with a personal touch - This tour is excellent for getting a broad view of St Maarten with a personal touch and based on your timeline. My friend and I had so much fun with our tour guide, Johnny. He was so friendly, listened to us blather on and laughed at our bad jokes! He was very respectful of where we wanted to spend more time or less time. I could not recommend this tour more!

Fun, informative tour of the French and Dutch side of St. Maarten - This tour was wonderful. Richard did a wonderful job of providing history about St Maarten and took us to many locations where we could get some great pictures. We had really nice views from Fort Louis and got great pictures before it started raining. Richard timed the arrival of the planes just right so we could see them land. Overall, a wonderful day and one that our grandchildren will have fond memories of.

Great private tour - We had a very nice private tour of the entire island. The guide was friendly and explained everything very well and it was nice not to be with a crowd of other tourists. The views from the Fort were great and we really enjoyed our stay at Orient beach. The little stop at the Marigot tourist trap was pointless and we skipped Maho beach because we were staying right next to it. The guide talked a lot about the hurricane and about the Dutch being better than the French side of the island. Overall it was a good tour and we would recommend it

Great orientation to the island. - We did this tour on our first day on island so we could get a good, overall idea of the place for the rest of our stay. This tour did not disappoint. Nerline was our driver. She was conversational, funny, very knowledgeable obviously about the island. Probably the highpoint for us was learning about the Lolos, food stands with awesome grilled chicken, ribs, beans & rice, etc. Also the hour plus stop at Maho beach to watch planes take off and land over the beach. Weather did not cooperate, steady rain for a lot of the time (it did clear up at Maho, though!), but we still were able to see the entire island...just not so many pictures as there are in other reviews. Highly recommend...ask for Nerline.

Great Island Tour - My guide's name was Nerline. She was at the hotel entrance fifteen minutes early waiting for me. I love that. Nerline and I started the tour right away. We went around the entire island and she pointed out so many things and explained the significance of the sights we were seeing as well as what life is like on both the French and Dutch sides of St Maarten. The old fort ruins, various ports, several beaches among other places, and several spots where she stopped the car and I was able to explore in more depth. It was an outstanding tour. Thank you so much, Nerline. You are the best. I highly recommend St. Maarten Pelican Private Tour through Viator.

A private tour should be customizable; this wasn't - We were disappointed with the lack of customization. I had contacted the tour operator before booking and was told we could customize the tour. When Nerline arrived, however, she did not want to customize anything and tried ti dissuade us from going to Topper's for the rum tasting. It was only after she called the main office and they told her we were allowed to customize that she caved. What we really wanted was time to shop in Marigot. What we got was less aha 1 hour to eat and shop in a crowded tourist market instead of the main shopping street of Marigot. Then we were dropped off 40 minutes early at the end of the tour, so that was time we could have spent in Marigot. Overall, this was a disappointment.
