87aaron Posted February 17, 2011 #1 Share Posted February 17, 2011 My wife and I would like a personalized tour, not a bus tour. The tour operators I see listed commonly on the boards charge more than we want to pay for 5 or 6 hours. I found taxisstmaarten.com which offers a taxi for the whole day for $250. That's better, but I wonder if anyone knows of other options or has had experience with a taxi driver who will give private, individualized tours for a reasonable price. We had great luck in Cozumel with a private driver recommended on these boards who carted us around all day and gave lots of great info for around $150.

wjm32 Posted February 17, 2011 #2 Share Posted February 17, 2011 My Girl friend and I will be Cruising on the Solstice Feb 27th we are also thinking of the taxi route. We've had great luck in Mexico and most recently Barbados...we had our driver for the day at our negotiated price of $100.00 who was estatic with the $30.00 tip. I highly recommend this mode of sightseeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Elizabeth K. Posted February 19, 2011 #3 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I highly recommend Joyce Prince. She charges 40 pp for about 4 hours but if she is free, would probably be glad to negotiate for a longer tour. She is wonderful and knowledgeable and happy to customize your day. We used her in January while there for a land vacation. http://www.joyceprince.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherry Baby Posted February 20, 2011 #5 Share Posted February 20, 2011 We also recommend Joyce Prince for a more private tour. We went Jan. 2011, there were only 4 of us in her small SUV. She drove us around for about 4 hours for $40 pp. She is intelligent, informative, and interested in what you would like to see. Do your homework ahead and you will be especially pleased with the tour. She will customize the drive for shopping or whatever you wish. She will phone you to arrange the tour if you leave your number in an email. Sherry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87aaron Posted February 21, 2011 Author #6 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I believe Joyce is booked and Bernard wants $350 for the 2 of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
