deedee290 Posted August 22, 2012 #29 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I sent through pp a despoit that he requested. That was a week ago and haven't received any response. I trust him because of what everyone on these boards say about him, did anyone else have this happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the cost of the tour? On his website it shows $40 with a $5 /pp deposit and on this thread someone emailed him and the cost of the tour was $45.

deedee290 Posted August 24, 2012 #32 Share Posted August 24, 2012 He sent me a link to send the deposit. He preferred pay pay it was $5 dollars a person , I used the cc discount # on it. The rest is due at the time of the tour, I understood it to be $40 total we shall see. I read all the reviews I could find on this tour and there were no complaints whatsoever. Everyone thought it was great. We will be going Sept 13th. Looking forward to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If private, is he flexible on itinerary if you are deciding on the spot to either stay somewhere longer or move on earlier This was our itinerary on Noel Tours, We had private tour, and he was flexible enough to make us spend longer and shorter times on the sites, ********************* Tour Description ****************** Oyster Pond view point, Orient Beach, Marigot, Maho Beach, Pickup at the cruise pier sightseeing including stop at the French and Dutch border Brief stop at Oyster Pond over looking the island of St Barths Orient beach Marigot Maho Beach Cayhill overlooking Simpson Bay marina. Great Bay overlooking Phillipsburg and harbor. Return to ship or Phillipsburg for shopping. I would advise booking a booking a private tour, you can customize your tour, and get the van all to yourself, and his private tour prices are reasonable.

Kfoot Posted October 15, 2012 #37 Share Posted October 15, 2012 We leave for our cruise on Dec 1, and was looking at Bernards Tour also. Didn't know about Noel. So glad I came across this thread. Its just 2 of us, so i was wondering how many does he pick at one time. Has anyone used both Bernard and Noel in the past, and if so how does one compare to the other?

Wow, just reading through this thread and thought about doing a private tour with Noel for December 2013 until I checked his website and noticed it's about $160 per person. Goodness, it makes me appreciate the $40 per person my friend and I paid for a completely private tour in Roatan. How many people are on Noel's non-private tours?

syr101 Posted November 11, 2012 #42 Share Posted November 11, 2012 We toured with Noel last month while we were on the Celebrity Summitt; October 24th. He was absolutely the best. Fun and knowledgeable. Noel had a mini van with 7 passengers. We never felt crowded and we had plenty of room. I'm telling you, If you want a great time with a great person, he is the man. We will be in St. Martin next September and plan to tour with him again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecatcher Posted November 13, 2012 #43 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Great tour with Noel on 28 October, he seems to know everyone on the island. I would recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust him because of what everyone on these boards say about him, did anyone else have this happen? I'm getting a little nervous about booking with Noel Tours because I haven't heard from him either. I paid my deposit on Nov. 12 through PayPal and as of today, Nov. 22, I have not received any email from him. I also emailed him at info@noeltours.com & also via the contact info on his website to let him know that I had the CC discount code but have not gotten any response. Does anyone have a different email address for him? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatec1008 Posted November 28, 2012 #45 Share Posted November 28, 2012 We just contacted Noel about booking his tour in December using the CC 10% discount. He said the discount only applies during low season. We will probably go with Bernards Tour since his tour price is low than Noel and the reviews are about the same.
