Amazing adventure in Curaçao!
We had a limited time for our curacao and wanted to see as much as we could in one day. Shue was an amazing guide and created an itinerary based on our intérêts: we hiked and snorkeled, saw caves and learned so much! The perfect day :)

Awesome Tour and Knowledgeable Tour Guide
Highly recommend this tour in Curacao! Was contacted the day before with pictures of the tour guides and what to expect. Lee was our tour guide for the day. We were offered water during the day and didn't have to worry about finding a store to get bottled water. We had the option of deciding on what to do for the day and chose for Lee to make suggestions since we had never been there. We never felt rushed doing the day. Hands down, Lee is the best tour guide we ever had on a vacation. Lee brought us to a nice restaurant and waited while we ate. Lee was very knowledgeable about the island and its history. Thank you for a great tour!

Reliable, Great Value, Customizable Private Tour!
I decided to try a tour NOT associated with our cruise and I am SO GLAD we did! I had several emails back and forth with the company and they proved to be exactly as advertised! Reliable, Personable, Safe, and granted my requests of activities/locations. Ray met us at Starbucks promptly at 9am boat time, 10am Curacao time, and we were off on our PRIVATE tour for 4 in a clean, comfortable, air conditioned SUV equipped with towels, water and snorkeling gear. (we were not interested in an expensive bus tour with dozens of others working on their time and their choice of stops that was offered through Royal Caribbean). Ray is a local with a fantastic personality and really has a way of showcasing unique Curacao! He has a wealth of cultural, historical, geologic, ecologic and economic information. We were entertained, never felt rushed and stayed at each location as long as we liked. First stop was the Hato Caves (would totally skip this as in Virginia we have caves WAY better). Second stop was AMAZING! Shete Boka National Park to see and hear the Boka Pistol. The waves smash into a limestone inlet making a shotgun sound as the water shoots out! We also walked down the the Boka Tabla and saw the waves thunder into an underwater cave. Third stop was lunch at a local restaurant and our teenagers were so entertained by the cliff jumpers, they decided to go for it as well! Fourth stop was to the see the native flamingos. Fifth stop was one of the most beautiful beaches we have ever seen! Grote Knip Beach had beautiful white sand, warm water and fish! Lastly, we went back into the town to shop. Ray dropped us right off at the cruise ship dock on time! Book a tour with this company and you will not be disappointed!

Amazing tour and guide!
This tour was awesome! Our tour guide Shue, was absolutely fantastic! He was so informative, friendly and down to earth, honestly it felt like we took the tour with a friend or family member. He was super accommodating, took us to some local places we would have never seen otherwise and drive us where ever we wanted to go. Take this tour, totally worth your time and money, we loved it and would totally do it again with Shue!

Fabulous day on The Curaçao Full Day Private Tour Experience!
We met Lee off of the Royal Caribbean Odyssey of the Seas cruise ship at Starbucks for 9:00 am. We were 30 minutes late because our ship time was different than Curaçao’s time. Make sure you ask for local time if you are cruising which stays at EST. Lee was patiently waiting for us and accommodated five family members in an A/C van. He asked us what we wanted to do and our main goal was to snorkel! Lee offered us a wealth of knowledge about Curacao’s history and had a great sense of humor. The snorkeling was fabulous and he stopped at two different sites including playa Piscopo (fisherman’s Beach, where multiple turtles swam up to us and there were many Beautiful fish!) and playa kenepa grande, which had clear beautiful water for snorkeling, laying out on the beach or playing in the water. We did not feel rushed and Lee waited for us to enjoy our time in the water. We then stopped at a local restaurant, with cliff diving which was entertaining to watch, for delicious burgers, Philly cheesesteak and wraps. The food was delicious and not incredibly expensive. We then stopped at a local artist’s house and saw some beautiful Caribbean paintings. After, we drove to the historic Curaçao city and a local market where we shopped for souvenirs and local food. The houses and properties in Curaçao are colorful and the city clean. Our tour finished at the local Cuarcao distillery, where we learned the history of making 41% liqueur and how oranges are used in the process. We sampled some of the liqueurs and purchased some to take home. Lee then brought us back to our ship and our entire family was worn out from an incredibly fun day exploring the beautiful island of Curacao! Take this tour and you won’t regret it!

Great private tour
Not many tours speak spanish, thankfully Rey ( el unico, the only one) was able to be our tour guide for this trip. As our luck goes, we arrived to the farthest cruise pier, but was easy to find the meeting point. We got in his car ( a van) and we got our way. He accommodated based on the needs of our party ( 3 people), specially my mother who wanted to see turtles. Our tour included to check the town, the flamingos, a large church with the expatriated rests of the father who founded it, Willywood, flamingos, the pistol sea cave, some gorgeous beaches, the fort Nassau, the inner harbor, the moving bridge, the curacao sign, the Julianna bridge and of course, the iconic beautiful multi level downtown buildings. Not to mention the general history of the island.
