Three guided off-road experiences on Saint-Martin, primarily run by Splash in the sun, offer a range of intensities from 24 min to 3h. The gap comes down to the vehicle and duration: the quad bike option starts at 123.91 € per person, while the buggy tour sits at 348.66 €, nearly three times the price. Buggies seat two side by side, making them the natural pick for pairs or anyone who wants a shared cockpit over rugged Saint-Martin terrain. Solo riders or anyone chasing a more direct, physical connection with the road will get more raw sensation from the quad at a fraction of the cost. Both main tours meet at the cruise terminal or Pointe Blanche, so logistics are identical for the full 3h sessions.
Guided Quad Bike Tour of Saint-Martin
At 123.91 €, the Guided Quad Bike Tour delivers solo off-road intensity across Saint-Martin for the lowest entry price in the catalog.
Guided Buggy Tour of Saint-Martin
The Guided Buggy Tour fits two side by side, making it the obvious pick for duos who want to share the cockpit on Saint-Martin's backcountry routes.
No. The tours list 'Everybody welcome' as the physical level, so no prior quad or buggy experience is required for these excursions.
The quad bike puts you solo on an open machine with direct throttle response, which most riders find more visceral than a buggy. If raw, physical adrenaline is the goal, the quad wins.
The main tours run for 3h, while the scenic view option is a quick 24 min blast. Confirm the exact duration when booking with Splash in the sun.
At 348.66 € versus 123.91 €, the buggy makes sense if you're riding as a pair or want a more comfortable shared experience across Saint-Martin backcountry tracks. For solo thrills on a budget, the quad is the sharper choice.
Guides speak Spanish, French and English on the primary 3h tours.

Equipment
The tours welcome all fitness levels and run up to 3h under the Caribbean sun, so wear closed-toe shoes, light breathable clothing and apply high-SPF sunscreen before you arrive. Bring sunglasses and a small bottle of water for the ride.
Getting there
Both main tours meet either at the cruise terminal or at 16 Ground Dove, Pointe Blanche, Saint-Martin.
