All Aboard the Tschu-Tschu Train! Immerse yourself in Philipsburg’s natural, cultural, and historic landmarks on this scenic ride throughout town in a custom Trolley Train. When the first Dutch settlers arrived on St Maarten in 1631, they chose the sandy strip separating Great Bay from Great Salt Pond to build their capital, Philipsburg, where your ship is moored today. This excursion combines the exhilarating experience of a classical Train ride with a scenic ride throughout Philipsburg, starting at the official Old Amsterdam Venue to taste the famous Dutch Gouda Cheese. Then you have 30min to enjoy your favorite spot in Philipsburg before we drive you back to ship or you can enjoy more free time to discover Philipsburg or stay at the beach in Great Bay and get back to ship at your own leisure.
