Description
This excursion is available in as a private tour as well.
The excursion starts with a pick up at your hotel lobby or cruise ship terminal around 9:30 am. Exact pick up time will be advised after reservation based on where you are located. (If the first tour fills up, we offer a second tour at 12:30 pm.)
Once everyone is on board you can enjoy the comfort of our mini bus and refreshments as you like (there is coke, sprite, water, beer, champagne, mini cheese platter in the open bar) as we start our day and head to Harold Jack lookout point where you can revel in the view of the entire Cole Bay. Great place for family photos.
Then we will visit Philipsburg, the Dutch Capital of St. Maarten and spend one hour there. You can go for duty free shopping or explore the city. If you can squeeze it into one hour you should check out Amsterdam Cheese and Liquor Store, St. Maarten Museum or Juggie's Place, the smallest bar in the world.
After our hour at the capital, we will stop at Oyster pond where you can enjoy the spectacular view and take magnificent photos. Once everyone is done with the pictures, we will head to Coralita Bay where you will feed iguanas or just hang out with them. This is the favorite stop for many of our passengers.
We will visit Grand Case, the gastronomic capital of the Caribbean which is not only a must-see but a must-eat place too. It is well-known for its delicious French gourmet food. You will also have a beautiful view of Anguilla from Grand Case.
Then we head to Marigot for an open market visit where you can explore the French capital of St. Martin before your friendly guide drives you to the last stop.
The tour ends with a 30 minutes beach stop at the famous Maho Beach where you can go for a swim or just enjoy the warmth of the sun as you chill on the coast and watch planes taking off or landing.
We return to the cruise ship terminal in Philipsburg between 2:30 pm and 3:00 pm and say farewell to our cruise ship guests, then return our hotel guests around 3:00 pm and 3:30 pm.

Noel took us to front st in Philipsburg, and we walked for hours! We got lost and came back late, but Noel was waiting for us, and took it in stride! He was very professional, and a great tour guide!! Will use him again on our next visit!! Thanks Noel, and Twistour!!January 03, 2020
Response from supplier
Thank you so very much for this awesome review! I appreciate your sincerity. See you very soon.
Amazing Tour
Noel went above and beyond touring my mom and I plus a big group around both the French & Dutch sides of the island. Impeccable service, highly knowledgeable, passionate, down to earth very accommodating, and definitely true to his craft. He ensured that everyone felt like family and got a taste of the island that they heard of. Noel speaks several languages and it was amazing hearing him interact to a Hindi family of 14. Thanks for an informative tour, cool clean transportation, the rum punches and cheers to a rare gem on the island, you! Much success.Reviewed by Nishka P on August 08, 2019

Excellent island tour
My wife and I always like to take a guided island tour. Learning about the island from a local is always the best way. We got lucky when we signed up with Noel. He is very personable and knowledgeable (and reasonably priced). We hit the shopping area near where the cruise ships dock, feed the iguanas, ate lunch at a small local restaurant, and even stopped by the nude beach. I found it interesting that the nude beach is a stop on the tour, but whats a good tour if you don't see what there is to see (no pun intended). Noel even times the tour so you are at the end of the runway at Maho Beach to watch an airplane land right over head.I highly recommend Noel.Reviewed by Robert G on June 26, 2019
Absolutely Wonderful ! It is the highlight of our trip !
Noel Tours is the best ! Noel can speak French, English or Spanish. You will see Saint-Martin in a very different way, with the history, the locals ... Great tour ! A MUST !Reviewed by reneeducanada on March 25, 2019
We really enjoyed
We had a great tour with Noel last week. He picked us up from our hotel and gave us an excellent tour around the island . He was very informative and we learnt a great deal about various aspects of the island and island life. He has got a good sense of humour. This trip at the start of our holiday enabled us to find out where we personally wanted to revisit. This was not where we had originally thought, a personal view but saved us doing somethings we had thought to do. He did give us a recommendation for lunch on the tour and after a brief wander around we did go there. It was excellent for a lunch time stop and lots of locals stopped by to pick up their lunch. He also gave a very good recommendation for another town's restaurant. We visited it on an other occasion and again a good choice. We had a good trip and saw and understood far more than if we had driven round the island. Thank you Noel.Reviewed by workingtoretiresoon on February 09, 2019
Excellent day tour with Noël
It was a great afternoon spent with Noël. We could feel his passion for the island, its history, its beaches and its landscapes. He made our tour a very special one. His enthusiasm is contagious. We could warmly recommend Noël to anyone planning a tour of St. Marteen as well as for a specific taxi service.Reviewed by LaurentLausanne on February 09, 2019
Tour of St. Maarten-St. Martin
We had a lovely tour of the island by Francisco from Noel Tours. We had been to the island numerous times, but had never ventured to the French side. Francisco was knowledgeable and allowed us plenty of time to explore at all the stops. We had booked a group tour, but ended up being the only two people on our tour, so we had a private tour at group rates. We would book them again in a heartbeat...Reviewed by KJNR66 on January 25, 2019
The man of a thousand vioces and stories
Noel is the ultimate tour guide. He knows his subject intimately, he patiently answers questions, and has a cooler full of drinks!! we went all around the island, hit all the tourist spots, and some interesting places that only a guide like Noel knows about and can arrange. it is the perfect way to get acquainted with a such a wonderful island, and Noel is the perfect host. The tour van is clean and spacious.Reviewed by AlK71 on January 20, 2019
Great Service
Noel was amazing. He picked us up at our hotel and treated us to a 5 hour tour of his island. His knowledge and easy manner made for a fantastic outing.Reviewed by Ruth S on December 14, 2018
