Tropisk sejleroplevelse med BBQ-frokost eller BBQ-middag på Aruba

⭐⭐⭐⭐ The BEST excursion we’ve ever experienced! There are vacations…and then there are memories that stay with you forever. Tropical Sailing Aruba gave my wife and me one of those memories as we celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary, and words almost can’t do justice to how incredible this experience was. From the moment we stepped aboard, Captain Roger and his phenomenal crew—Jeffrey, Jake, and Vince—made us feel welcomed, valued, and genuinely cared for. Their energy, professionalism, knowledge, and sense of humor created an atmosphere that was fun, relaxing, and unforgettable. The snorkeling experience was outstanding. The crew explained everything clearly, made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe, and stayed attentive throughout. Whether you were a first-time snorkeler or experienced, you felt completely confident because of them. The food was absolutely spectacular! We enjoyed perfectly prepared mahi-mahi, juicy shrimp, tender beef, delicious barbecue chicken, and sweet corn on the cob. It was restaurant-quality food served in one of the most beautiful settings imaginable. And the open bar? Simply incredible! Every drink you could possibly want was available, and it was all served with smiles and genuine hospitality. But what truly touched our hearts was what happened next. Without us expecting a thing, Captain Roger and the crew gathered everyone aboard to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. They made us feel like the most important people on the boat. Complete strangers joined in celebrating with us, cheering us on and sharing in our special day. It was emotional, beautiful, and something my wife, Luz, and I will never, ever forget. To the management of Tropical Sailing Aruba: please know what an extraordinary team you have. Captain Roger, Jeffrey, Jake, and Vince don’t just do their jobs—they create lifelong memories. Their kindness, attention to detail, professionalism, and passion for what they do are exactly why your company has such an outstanding reputation. My wife and I have traveled to many places over the years, and I can honestly say this was one of the finest excursions we have ever taken. If you’re visiting Aruba and don’t book with Tropical Sailing, you’re missing one of the island’s greatest experiences. Thank you for helping make our 40th wedding anniversary one of the happiest days of our lives. We will treasure these memories forever and will enthusiastically recommend Tropical Sailing Aruba to every friend and family member we know. With heartfelt gratitude, Leonardo (“Leo”) & Luz Colon Celebrating 40 wonderful years of marriage ❤️

Juju, Jason and Jake did a wonderful job making us comfortable and making sure our snorkel adventure was fun. I would not hesitate to go out snorkeling with them again. The snorkeling location we went to on this day was OK but the ride took us up a river and past the Island garbage dump which was not pleasant. I get not including it in the online itinerary but be prepared to do some at the moment jokes about it and maybe have some information about how the Island does an amazing job recycling or something. Actually, the crew could do more informing / entertaining on the ride out and back. I have done a lot of snorkeling and diving and there were the typical tropical fish present. The swimming was not too challenging however there was a portion of the trip where we had to walk over some rocks, climb onto a dock and cross over a small strip of land to get to the other side where there was more snorkeling. That was really the hardest part. One of the best parts was the great BBQ lunch Juju prepared. It was a great ending to the adventure.

We went on a beautiful day and during the trip we experienced beautiful aquatic creatures, beautiful clear blue water, and overall incredible service and vibes from the three workers, Ju Ju, Jake, and Jason were the best instructors and tour guides.

We went on morning tour on Monday7/13 and we had a Fantastic time. We were very lucky. Only one other couple booked at the same time so it was like a private sail and snorkel experience. The captain and his crew were very professional and attentive, funny, and courteous. They asked us many times if we wanted another drink. The lunch was delicious and fresh. The sail route was beautiful and scenic. Guided Snorkeling was great w tons of marine life to see. This beats crazy and loud catamarans that we’ve been in before with blaring music. If you’re looking for a personalized experience, this is it!!!

The driver Jason was friendly and answered any questions we had about the area while driving, giving us information about downtown also. Captain Rogier was excellent on the sailboat. Gave us all the instructions needed to enjoy our time on the boat. They had drinks for us, even for the kids. Besides it being a bit windy (not their fault) the water was a bit too rough for me, but my husband and son went snorkeling and loved it being near the reef. So many different species there. Chef Dillon cooked the most amazing dinner while they were all out snorkeling. He made chicken, jumbo shrimp, Mahi Mahi, and beef tenderloin skewers with corn on cob and coleslaw and a roll. Seeing the sunset was even more amazing then being out in the water. I definitely recommend if you prefer a smaller group and sunset over the water. Great group of men, they work well together and kept everyone safe.

We've been fortunate to snorkel all over the world and have been on a lot of different snorkeling tours. In the last year alone we've been to Barbados, Turks & Caicos, St, Martin, and Thailand, and this was hands down the best! We were traveling with our three kids (ages 19, 16, and 15), and every one of them absolutely loved it. The experience felt semi-private with only 11 people on board (our group was 5), which made it so much more enjoyable than being on a crowded boat. Roger, JuJu, Jason, and the chef were absolutely amazing. One of the biggest highlights was having a guided snorkeling experience. Instead of everyone just swimming around on their own, they took us directly to where the fish were, pointed out marine life we never would have seen on our own, and made sure everyone had a great experience. It made such a difference! Definitely open bar and the food...wow! It was incredible. It's so rare to have an actual chef preparing a fresh lunch on a snorkeling excursion, and it was easily one of the best meals we've had on a boat tour. If you're debating whether to book this tour, don't overthink it—just do it. You won't regret it! We would absolutely book this excursion again the next time we're in Aruba. We were sad for it to end!

The staff was very kind and fun. The drinks kept coming and the lunch was delicious. A great way to spend the afternoon. We will definitely go every trip to Aruba 🙋🏿‍♂️🇭🇹❤️🖤🙌🏿

Jeff, Beryl and the rest of the crew were so fun, h helpful and simply amazing. The food was delicious and the drinks were flowing. We will definitely bring friends next time.
