Additional Information

Experience the thrill of beach hopping between two of our most frequented coasts will be a life-changing experience. Orient beach, renowned for its distinct dual sections, the nude portion and the traditionally clothed section stretces approximately a mile. This beach is decorated with bars and high-end eateries along with offered beach furniture like chairs and umbrellas. Here, options for activities are diverse, ranging from a simple swim to renting jet skis, flyboarding, paragliding, snorkeling or pursuing other aquatic sports. Convenience facilities like restrooms, changing areas and freshwater rinsing stations are regularly found at the beach bars and eateries. Maho beach, on the other hand, offers a surge of adrenaline as airplanes fly merely a few feet above your head before landing. Bursting with excitement, this beach tends to attract thrill seekers who prefer to feel their skin prickle with the sand blasted up by departing planes. However, do mind your safety and maintain a safe distance from the powerful engine blast. This stop also offers diverse attractions. You can indulge in a meal or savor some guava berry coladas while you enjoy the thrilling sight of planes landing and taking off, or try swimming for a different experience. There are also shopping options readily available.

Great day at St. Maarten - Tony the Tiger was our driver/guide and he made the experience extra special. We had a great day! Seeing the planes come in was definitely a highlight. It was like right out of the movies!

My tour guide was sent... - My tour guide was sent from Heaven. I actually fell ill while on the tour and he looked out for me and ended up taking me back early. I wish I had gotten a chance to tip him but I was out of it. Thank you so much kind sir. What I got to experience on the tour was amazing. I wish I had finished the rest.

Good tour - Great tour. Rick was our guide. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and fun. His van was clean and he gave us the VIP treatment. We saw Maho and Orient Beaches. We stopped Marigot to shop at a flea market where we were able to buy real local souvenirs not all the made in China stuff. We also made a stop to feed the iguanas which was fun. Maho beach was super crowded when we arrived but the crowd thinned out a bit while we were there. We saw several planes land and one take off. Watch out for the people selling items and massages on Orient Beach. They are not licensed and will take advantage. One lady offered me a foot massage sample then wanted $45. Several bars on Orient will give you free chairs if you purchase food or drinks. We sadly did not get to sample the guava berry margarita.

Great trip but not as advertised - So I wanted as much time at Maho for the planes as possible and also wanted to go to Marigot. I researched all the excursion choices for this and found this excursion. It also went to Orient Beach which I didn't care about but was OK since it would be what I wanted at the other spots. We ended up having a # of unplanned stops; Downtown, picture stops and I was thinking it's getting later and later. We went to Orient for the 1.5 hours which I passed the time with a drink and a walk. There was one group who was always late returning to the bus (not his fault). Then was told now there isn't any time to stop at Marigot (a 45 minute stop) and we went on to Maho (an 1.5 hour stop) which now became an hour but fortunately many planes came by so it ended up OK. After an hour I was returning to the bus on time when I ran into someone else on the tour and they informed me he left to take the late girls back to their hotel and would be back to get us late. He was a very nice gentleman and was very informative but wasn't pleased that we didn't see what was offered. While what we saw was great, I wouldn't use this company again.
