Great introductory tour of the island of St. Marten. Tour guide was interesting and informative, with many great stories about the island. The small group size of only 5 people made the tour much more personal. Homemade banana bread and lemongrass tea were a nice final touch.

The story on StMaarten is really interesting. David is a excellent storyteller and can almost answer every question. It was a Good balance between listening and exploring. The only regret we have is that we did the tour on the last day of our holiday instead on the first day.
