wonderful trip, excellent guide and good motorbikes
¡Muchas gracias por tu comentario! Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste del viaje, de las motos y de la experiencia con nuestro guía. Fue un placer acompañarte en esta aventura y esperamos verte de nuevo muy pronto para otra gran ruta. ¡Un abrazo y buenos caminos
This tour was excellent, primarily because of the tour guide Jackie who talked to us about so many interesting things about the history, culture, nature and peole of Curaçao. She was also able to answer any questions we had. The visits were interesting and of a good duration. Buffet lunch served in a local restaurant was delicious. No regret we took that tour. Reasonable price. Really, the visit was beyond our expectations.

Jackie will be especially happy to know that her passion for sharing the history, culture, and natural beauty of Curaçao made such a positive impression. She truly loves what she does, and it’s great to hear that it showed throughout your day. We’re also glad you enjoyed the stops along the way and that the pace of the tour felt just right.

We’re thrilled that the tour exceeded your expectations, and we hope to welcome you back again in the future. Thank you for choosing us!
Great way to see the whole island. Both Mayna our tour guide and Roland the driver were knowledgeable and friendly. We booked through Curacao tours which didn’t tell us we should bring a bathing suit and towel for the visit to Groot Knip Beach. The beach was lovely but bring cash to rent chairs I wish we could have spent more time at Shete Boka National Park and been given a better overview of it. The visit to the distillery visit could be shorter since it was our first stop in the morning and this would give more time for the visit to the park. Lunch was very good. The tour is a good value. You definitely see the whole island.
Thank you very much for your detailed and thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring the island and that both Mayna and Roland made a positive impression with their knowledge and friendliness, we will be sure to share your kind words with them. We also appreciate your valuable feedback regarding the tour experience. We’re sorry that the information about bringing a bathing suit and towel for Groot Knip Beach was not clearly communicated, and we will work on improving this with our partners to better prepare our guests. Your suggestions about spending more time at Shete Boka National Park and adjusting the duration of the distillery visit are very helpful. We continuously strive to improve our itineraries, and feedback like yours plays an important role in that process. We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the lunch and found the tour to be a good value, as well as a great way to see the island. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you back for an even better tour in the future!
Nice day trip by bus across Curacao from east to west. Guide had a lot to say. Lots of family, Nice lunch. Unfortunately the swimming did not go due to too rough seas.
Bedankt voor je leuke review. Wat fijn om te horen dat je hebt genoten van de dagtocht over Curaçao, de verhalen van de gids en de lekkere lunch. Jammer dat het zwemmen door de ruwe zee niet door kon gaan, veiligheid staat bij ons altijd voorop. We hopen dat je ondanks dat toch een mooie en complete ervaring hebt gehad. Graag tot een volgende keer.
It was a very fun, fun and educational day with our tour guide Magda. And our driver Roland has taken us everywhere and furloughed us back home. Recommended! Thank you Magda! And we looked up the Toyota commercial! 👍🙂
Hartelijk dank voor je geweldige review! Wat fijn om te horen dat jullie een leuke, gezellige en leerzame dag hebben gehad met Magda. We geven jullie complimenten ook zeker door aan haar en aan Roland, fijn dat alles van ophalen tot terugbrengen zo soepel verliep. Dank voor de aanrader en we hopen jullie nog eens te mogen verwelkomen!
We had a great time! This was a great way to see the island. I would recommend anyone wanting to get out to see the island to go!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you had a great time and enjoyed seeing the island with us. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would love to have you join us again for another adventure!
Excellent driver and guide combination; confortaable bus; good variety of stops; felt nothing kept hidden although I was surprised that there wasn't more information about the local population e.g. employment, culture, agriculture. Would have liked a longer stay at the beach!
Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the driver and guide, the comfortable bus, and the variety of stops along the way. We really appreciate your feedback regarding the information shared about local life and the time at the beach, those are great points, and we’ll certainly take them into consideration as we continue to improve the experience. Thanks again for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back for an even better adventure next time!
Magda did a great job educating us about the island, switching effortlessly between English, Spanish and Dutch as she pointed out key attractions. Lunch at Landhuis Klein Santa Martha was comprised of delicious local food. We felt we were in safe hands as Roland, our driver, navigated the large bus through tight spaces.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear you had such a great experience. Magda will be delighted to know her knowledge and ability to switch seamlessly between languages made the tour even more enjoyable. We’re also glad you loved the lunch at Landhuis Klein Santa Martha, such a special spot for local cuisine! And we couldn’t agree more, Roland does an excellent job ensuring everyone feels safe and comfortable throughout the journey. We truly appreciate you sharing your experience and hope to welcome you back again soon!
Nice to her with a lot of information! In fact a little too much history and not enough current and nature provided. Also would be nice if the tour would start providing group pictures.
Thank you for your feedback and review! We really appreciate you sharing your thoughts, and we will definitely take your feedback into consideration. We hope to welcome you back soon!
Was a great tour. Only issue we had was, it was a bilingual tour and the tour guide was constantly trying to guide us in both languages while on the bus. This was very difficult on her and on us too as we missed a lot of the sites. So make sure you have a tour guide who speaks your language exclusively (if that's what you want)
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the tour overall. We’re sorry, though, that the bilingual format made it difficult to fully take in the sights. Your feedback is very helpful, and we understand how important it is to have a guide who can focus on the language you’re most comfortable with. We’ll be reviewing this with our team to ensure we set clearer expectations and better match guests with the right tour option.
