Overview

Experience St Maarten's unique and colourful past as you take a leisure bicycle ride through its historically-rich streets. Your guide will lead you into the heart of town, where you will have the chance to stop at various points of interest to learn about the island’s history and rich culture. You will get up close to the famous salt pond, visit important landmarks such as the Old Court House, Freedom Fighters Monument, and Carnival Village, enjoying several fun photo opportunities. Of course your day will not be complete without a dip in the pristine waters of Great Bay before heading back to Port.

Please note that St. Maarten does not have cycling lanes, therefore this tour requires cycling with traffic, which might be an uncomfortable experience if you are not accustomed to it.

Our guide, Jenel, was fabulous. He was knowledgeable, stopped at great points of interests, and sparked our desire to return to see more of this island. The bikes were nice. I recommend this tour and ask for Jenel!

My husband and I had a great time on this tour. We had Jenel and Marci as our tour guides. They were patience & knowledgeable, I haven't rode a bike since childhood but they made sure I was ok and kept up with the group. They gave us a great history lesson of the island and answered all my husband questions. I recommend doing this tour.

We had a time share on the Island and booked this trip through trip Advisor. We also stopped at the bike shop on our early morning ride to Phillipsburg. Must visit the bike shop at Simpson Bay - great bikes, shoes and bike trips galore!!! We had trouble finding the parking area, however, we were very early for the trip - so we had plenty of time to find it. We met at the enclosed parking area and was surprised to see about 12 other people from the Boat join us. Janelle and the young man were great tour guides. We had an absolute blast!!! The one on one Q & A was awesome. We saw so much and had so much fun, I would recommend it to anyone who can ride a bike. It was a very easy ride. Bring sun screen and an extra water and you will be fine. Great tour!!!! A must do for the active person!!!
