All Philipsburg Tours & Excursions in 2026

Upon the mishap of our group being scheduled for a day we weren’t on St. Maartens, the tour company got it straightened out, but the customer service rep who answered the phone was not accommodating at all. Just kept telling me essentially my reservation had been cancelled and payment had not been received, when I had proof of payment. Amigo tours was awesome!!

At the beginning, the tour did not start as planned because somehow they could not find my booking, which was frustrating since everything had already been confirmed. To make matters worse, Viator only provided four pickup locations in the app, when the actual tour company does offer hotel pickup services. The nice lady waiting for us even mentioned that we should not have taken a cab because they could have arranged pickup directly from our hotel. This caused unnecessary confusion and extra transportation costs for our group. Thankfully, once everything was sorted out, Richard, our driver, completely turned the experience around. He was amazing — very patient, professional, and accommodating with our group of eight. He made sure we were comfortable, took us to every location smoothly, and even brought us to an amazing lunch spot. His kindness, positive attitude, and excellent service truly made the tour enjoyable for all of us

We toured the Dutch and French areas of St. Maarten. Raj was on time and communicated when he arrived since we were at a resort that was connected to it's other sister resort and would have only one spot for pick ups (which we found out when meeting Raj). He was very knowledgeable and gave some history along with the gorgeous views. He drove the van and was very safe. You'll see there are many motor scooters on the road and he was very cautious. We hung out by a beautiful, great beach in Grand Case where we had some nice drinks at the Tropics Bar and while there we rented beach chairs/umbrella ($10 each person but you don't have to and can just lay on the sand with your towel). When in Marigot, Raj took us to a spot for lunch (Cisca's) where we had the most incredible meals of jerk chicken and coconut shrimp each accompanied with black rice/beans, coleslaw and avocado salad; the price was very reasonable and the food so tasty. I wish we had more time here to visit the local markets but we chose to have a nice lunch and I guess you can't rush good love in food but the scenic view of the waters were wonderful to enjoy with our meal. As we were picked up first, we got to see Bell's Lookout Point on our own and we hiked up to the top spending about 10 minutes where we got some great pictures then went on to pick up the other guests. For us our last stop was watching the planes land at Maho Beach and that is where we decided to end our tour since our hotel was situated there. We enjoyed the casual walk back on the beach and continued to watch the planes. Overall, Raj was really detailed about so many aspects of the island and one simple attraction he took us to to see was a monument where one sign you see Welcome to the French side and the other was Welcome to the Dutch side. I loved that! Raj is simply a nice, friendly person who enjoys meeting people and showing off his lovely island of St. Maarten. I highly recommend this tour.
