This tiny little island is a must if you are wanting to do some serious duty free shopping! If you don't already know why this is a must stop for any shopper then let me give you three good reasons
Well. There is not much good that I can say about this tour besides the fact that it was a reasonable price at $25. The age old saying of "you get what you pay for" is all too true in this situation.

The smallest island in the world that is shared by two nations is Saint Martin/Sint Maarten in the Caribbean. Today's Saint Martin is a tranquil tropical island getaway haven. This was not always the case during the course of its protracted and frequently violent past.

Imagine green islands full of dense rain forests, endless banana plantations, and the most well known peaks in the Caribbean. The possibly most romantic island has a very picturesque resorts with lots of family run inns.
When I was looking at our cruise the main thing that I did not want to do was to book excursions through the cruise line as no they are more expensive than going direct. However since we had an onboard credit that we weren't going to use for anything else there was no reason for us not to use it for this reason as it would save us money from paying out of pocket for the cheaper excursions.
