We used Kathy Royer for pretty much our whole trip for taxi service around the island. The van was new and clean and she was always prompt and showed up when we called. She offered great advice on where to go. They took our temperature everytime we got in the car as a precaution against the virus. We felt totally safe with her and will use her again when we return

St Maarten did not permit us to dock so our shore excursion never took place. We hope our $76.94 is returned.

This was our 2nd time working with Jo. He provided us with details on how to meet him at the cruise port. He introduced us to our driver and told us to have a great day. We had previously worked out a schedule with Jo in advance of where we all wanted to go for the day. There were 6 of us and we had a private bus to ourselves for a very reasonable cost. They provided us with water, beer, and rum punch on the bus. We toured the whole island, Orient Bay for some beach time, Grand Case for lunch at the lolos, Maho for some airplane beach time and Philipsburg for some shopping and afternoon snacks and drinks time. We departed in Philipsburg so we had to find our own way back to the ship based on the time frame we paid for. All and all it was a great day, the traffic in Simpson Bay set us back a bit so we didn’t have time for all of our stops. Our group are all craft beer lovers, so we asked our 1st stop to be the new island brewery called Caribbean Brewing Company. Our driver was not aware of the brewery, but we researched ahead and guided him to the location.

Prompt, on time, friendly, professional, humble, funny, entertaining - are just a few words to describe Dre. We used his services our entire trip, and the recommendations of places that he took us to were beyond amazing. Thanks Dre again and can't wait until next year
