Overview

Our Culinary Foodie Tour takes you on a tasty journey exploring
St Martin’s food scene.

There’s no better place to do a Food Tour than on our beautiful multicultural two-nation island of St. Martin, also known as the Culinary Capital of the Caribbean. We are a melting pot of more then 100 different nationalities, with a cuisine equally interesting. The island boasts more than 200 eateries, from local street fare to high end dining.

On our exclusive Food Tour of St Martin expect to taste hearty Caribbean comfort food, locally made rum, French haute cuisine, something sweet, and Dutch cheese. St Martin is a haven for gourmets as well as gourmands!

The Culinary Foodie Tour is a great and delicious opportunity to see the island’s sites, hear all about her food culture, and visit 4 locations and restaurants to taste the highlights of Creole, French, and Dutch food and drinks.

After a five minute straight walk you'll see Johnny's Scooter Rental on your left, it's a small shack with a big smiley sign on top. Go to the parking lot behind Johnny's Scooter Rental. We'll be on that parking lot in a silver van. If you prefer not to walk, you can ask one of the many taxis at the cruise ship terminal to drop you off at Chesterfield's Restaurant for a couple of dollars. Bear in mind they, maybe, will wait for their car/van to fill up before they depart.
