The sights were beautiful. This was our 3rd time visiting the island. We saw several areas that we had never seen before. Unfortunately, our driver /guide was not very informative at all. He answered questions but didn't point out much. I pointed out a few points to the other passengers.

Diderickson brought 14 of us on the tour to Marigot, stopping along the way for photo ops. We drove in comfort and learned much about the island, its history, and its customs from Diderickson, who is most knowledgeable and pleasant. We all consider it one of the best tours we've ever been on and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour.

Great tour with our guide, Douce, who showed us all the out-of-the-way interesting things to see on the trip from Phillipsburg to Marigot.
