Great way to see a beautiful island and learn about it at the same time. - Our guide Ellie was great! Knowledgeable about many aspects of the area. She actually provided some personalization by visiting a few areas specially because of my interest in birds. The homemade banana bread and lemon grass tea was the icing on the cake!

Amazing views and great information! - Our tour guide, Werner, was fantastic! We learned so much from him about the history of the island, its flora and fauna, and geological formation. Loved the entire experience from the hiking to the lemongrass tea and banana cake! Highly recommend taking this tour!

Great tour and hikes - We had a great tour with Werner of Seagrape Tours! Werner took us on 3 different hikes and shared lots of info about the history and culture of the island. He is super knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend time with. We would never have found these places to hike by ourselves! My husband is a bird watcher and Werner made sure he got to see lots of birds on our tour. He also makes delicious lemongrass iced tea and banana bread/cake! Thank you Werner!

Hiking / Swimming Tour: Wonderful Tour Guide and Experience - Thank you Rikke for the fantastic half day coastal hike and swim tour in January 2024. I highly recommend this tour to everyone. Rikke was very knowledgeable about all things, ranging from environmental protection management to birds, plants and the local lore, politics and Island history. We went on lovely walks and got to swim in beautiful Happy Bay just before we departed the Island. Our tour brought much depth to what we had already experienced. We will definitely do another Seagrape tour if we visit the island again. Thanks so much Rikke for a beautiful tour. I'll always remember the Seagrape tree:)

Great walking, swimming and driving round the island tour recommend - We had an amazing half day tour with Werner in mid November, we were lucky enough to be the only ones on the tour and Werner was very knowledgeable and friendly, we loved the scenery of the island, the lemongrass tea was amazing and banana bread was fab reward after Pic Paradis. I would really recommend this tour to all, Werner really showed us around the island and we felt like we saw lots in our 4 hours but also had lovely walks and a swim. Will do one of their other tours if we visit the island again. Thanks so much for our great day.

Wonderful Tour! - This was a great tour to do some hiking, see some gorgeous views, learn a bit about St. Maarten's history, culture, and ecosystems, and end with a swim at a beautiful quiet beach with a wonderful guide. Perfect small group tour to be a little active and see some great sights away from the crowds!

Mini hikes - Our tour guide Johnny was the best. He drove us up to Pic Paradise(thank goodness). We took three mini hikes through out the tour. All to a lookout point or beach. Very enjoyable!!! Johnny grew up on the island so he had all the answers to the various questions we had. Also the banana bread and lemongrass cold tea was a treat!!

Great experience - knowledgeable guide! - It was cloudy and rainy while my cruise stopped at the island, and my guide for the day was very knowledgeable about alternate plans to still have a great time while missing the rains. My two kids and I had a great experience.

Terrible experience - I was never picked up from meeting point. Communication was terrible. I called so many times and I got no response except to tell me that tour was not happening. I wasted my entire morning. Very disappointed with both, Viator and Seagrape tours
