Two Islands Twice the Fun is an easy, affordable way to see all of St. Martin in one day. We drive the whole way around the island, a full 360°, and finish where we started.
It is a shared tour, so you'll ride our Toyota Coaster bus with other travelers. That keeps the price at $50 a seat, and a local guide narrates the island as you go: the border between Sint Maarten and Saint-Martin, the jets landing low over Maho Beach, a cold drink at a beach bar and a stroll through Marigot, the French capital.
This is a shared tour. Other passengers ride the bus with you. Want a vehicle just for your group? Book the Best of St. Martin Private Tour.
