Our verdict

This tour fits a typical St. Maarten call (8:00 am–4:30 pm). It runs 5 h; ashore by 8:20 am, you can start by 8:40 am and be back at the gangway around 2:00 pm — 1 h 30 min to spare on top of a 1 h safety margin.

Rule of thumb: it keeps the safety margin as long as all aboard is 3:00 pm or later. Even a short 7:00 am–2:00 pm call works.

We don't have a verified start point for this tour yet, so we assume 20 min each way from the pier — the typical ride in St. Maarten. Check the meeting point on the booking page.

Among the 400 St. Maarten shore excursions we track, this is about average in length (the median runs 4 h); 77% of them fit a typical call.

Computed from the tour's published duration, the distance from the cruise pier to its start point and the typical St. Maarten call. Adjust your ship's times above to recheck.

About this tour

Why settle for one adventure when you can experience the best of Rockland Estate in one incredible day? Start aboard the Soualiga Sky Explorer, rising above the landscape as spectacular Caribbean views unfold below.

Stop for the Schooner Ride, racing downhill in an inner tube through the curves of a specially designed track. Then climb toward Sentry Hill, gear up, and soar across the mountain ridge on the Sentry Hill Zipline.

Save the biggest thrill for last: The Flying Dutchman — the world’s steepest zipline. Strap into a secure chair-style harness and launch down the mountain, dropping 1,050 ft (320 m) in elevation over 2,800 ft (853 m).

Along the way, discover the history of Rockland Estate and the Emilio Wilson Museum while enjoying some of St. Maarten’s most incredible views.

One mountain. Four incredible experiences. This is the ultimate way to experience Rockland Estate.
