Thanks It's been a few years since we did Bernard's Tours, but I think the difference is a stop at Orient beach. This beach is beautiful and worth the visit. The tour is perfect if you want to see the island. But any beach day in St. Maarten is amazing. We recently spent the day at Mullet Bay Beach, far less crowded and also has food and drink available along with beach chairs and umbrellas for much cheaper.

SMOKEY0202 Posted March 4, 2020 Report Share Posted March 4, 2020 st maarten is amazing all around and the beach is worth the visit. if you want to see both the island and beach without the crowds on a tour why not consider a private driver and customize it to what you want without having to wait on the group thru a tour company and do it your way. plan your day and how much time where you want to go and enjoy spending to capture those memories. plus still get beach time out of it.

Cruisingmia912 Posted March 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 Thanks. I did hire a private person to show us around. What can’t we miss on the island? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMOKEY0202 Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 i would do research yourself online and also work with your private driver. remember island is divided into french and dutch side with so much to do. if never seen planes fly over Maho beach that is a highlight for sure. it really depends on your personal interests because there is something for everyone to do from an island drive venture with stops at landmarks etc,zip line, beach adventure, snorkeling to a foodie adventure. every time i go there my private driver i continuously use the same person always make the day rewarding and different each time.

spiralqueen Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 I've been wondering - what is the rough cost to hire a private driver there? I know exact prices will need to be hammered out with the driver, but I'm just looking for an orders of magnitude idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMOKEY0202 Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 for me i used the private driver(Leo Brown) that was recommended by Matt and many others on the blog. he is reasonably priced and you cant go wrong with him. he will definitely make your day enjoyable and EVERYONE there knows him as if a celebrity no matter where he took us that day. each visit i always contact him because he makes the day that rewarding. he can even accommodate big groups which is cool. its all how you want to make your day. in december i took a friend on the memorable day with Leo and he still talks about the great time he experienced. i am headed there again in 2 weeks and cant wait to see him again.

I've heard great things about Leo! Does he normally charge per person? For the day? I keep seeing people talk about how the drivers in St Martin are reasonably priced, but I've never seen a range of what that means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMOKEY0202 Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 as far as leo goes look for taxi 303...................he doesnt charge per person its a per day rate(vehicle) and his philosophy is to make your day memorable. if you have a group and split the cost its more cheaper than a ship excursion. read up on blog Riveracruise did specifically on Leo Brown. you will truly see how rewarding we all feel after spending a day with him in St Maarten. here is info 1 721 553 4290.
