akparrothead Posted December 22, 2011 #1 Share Posted December 22, 2011 We're heading to St. Martin on the Ruby Princess. I don't really see any excursions which entirely meet our interests on the Princess website. I found Captain Alans website and they offer a snorkel and beach adventure which looks to our liking. Does anybody have an experience with Captain Alan? Good trip? Easy to connect to from a cruise ship? Thanks for the advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcparrothead Posted December 23, 2011 #2 Share Posted December 23, 2011 They get great reviews on Tripadvisor - I think we're going to use them in June! http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g147346-d1076263-Reviews-Captain_Alan_s_Three_Island_Snorkeling_Adventure-St_Maarten_St_Martin.html - and being a Parrothead like me, you might want to check out this store when are you in St. Maarten - I wanted to go last Sept. but we didn't make it - I hope to stop by this June! http://www.buffettnews.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=70514&start=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcdancerkc Posted December 24, 2011 #3 Share Posted December 24, 2011 we are going to do this in March. Went to tripadvisor dot com and under "things to do" I think he was number one in St Martin...many excellent reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyt Posted December 25, 2011 #7 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Do you have to take a taxi to their location? If so, how far and what cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scomar Posted December 26, 2011 #8 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Do you have to take a taxi to their location? If so, how far and what cost? When you book with them you can request for them to arrange a taxi, which I did. Below was their response: Transportation: ----------------- Our location is a 15 minute car ride from the cruise ship terminal. As requested we will pre-arrange transportation from the cruise ship terminal to our dock. The rate for this is $12 per person round trip. Transportation has to be paid to the cabdriver directly in cash. Instructions for this transportation will be in your reservation we email you when you book us. If desired we can offer transportation for a day itinerary if you want to do or go somewhere else before or after our trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
