Itinéraire
Découvrez une vue spectaculaire à 360° sur l'île depuis l'historique Fort Nassau, situé sur une colline de 68 mètres de haut surplombant la ville de Willemstad. Ou visitez le côté ouest de l'île et admirez de magnifiques flamants roses couleur saumon à Jan Kok.
Apprenez tout sur la célèbre liqueur de curaçao bleu et goûtez à trois de leurs saveurs.
Découvrez le pont ponton Queen Emma, connu sous le nom de Swinging Old Lady et découvrez la riche histoire et les magnifiques bâtiments coloniaux de Punda, Pietermaai et Scharloo !
Le pont Reine Emma, également connu sous le nom de « pont tournant », est un pont piétonnier historique à Willemstad, Curaçao. Il relie les districts de Punda et d'Otrobanda à travers la baie de St. Anna. Construit en 1888, il s'ouvre de façon battante pour laisser passer les navires, offrant une vue panoramique et un point de repère culturel clé.
Le fort Amsterdam est un fort historique situé à Willemstad, Curaçao, construit par les Hollandais en 1635. Il a servi de bastion militaire et est devenu plus tard le siège du gouvernement. Le fort offre une vue panoramique sur le port et est un site clé reflétant l'histoire coloniale et l'architecture de l'île.
Handelskade est une bande riveraine emblématique qui met en valeur les bâtiments colorés et charmants qui sont devenus synonymes de l'architecture de Curaçao. La rangée de bâtiments de style colonial Néerlandais aux couleurs pastel bordant le canal crée une scène époustouflante et photogénique qui figure souvent sur les cartes postales et les brochures de voyage.
Kura Hulanda est un quartier dynamique et historique qui vaut la peine d'être exploré. Le quartier abrite une architecture colorée, des rues animées et certains des meilleurs restaurants et bars de l'île. Les voyageurs peuvent se promener dans les rues étroites du quartier et s'imprégner de l'atmosphère unique qui fait de Curaçao un endroit si spécial.
Le marché flottant de Curaçao est une attraction unique à Willemstad, où les bateaux vénézuéliens accostent pour vendre des produits frais, des fruits de mer, et d'autres marchandises. Ce marché dynamique relie Curaçao aux îles voisines, offrant aux visiteurs une chance de découvrir la culture locale et d'interagir avec des vendeurs sympathiques. C'est un incontournable pour ceux qui veulent goûter à la vie insulaire authentique.
Brionplein doit son nom à un célèbre héros local, Pedro Luis Brion, qui a joué un rôle clé dans la lutte pour l'indépendance du Venezuela. La place est située sur le front de mer et offre une vue imprenable sur le port de Willemstad et l'emblématique pont Reine Emma. Brionplein présente le drapeau national de Curaçao.
Passez par la plus ancienne synagogue en usage continu dans l'hémisphère occidental et le musée vivant adjacent. Traversez la rue avec plusieurs demeures seigneuriales du XIXe siècle, la plupart appartenant autrefois à des marchands juifs locaux. Suivi d'une promenade en voiture le long de l'impressionnant cimetière juif Beth Chaim.

Helvig's tour was a top tour! Her SUV is very clean and comfortable (even has the new car smell!). She is so kind and loves to share information & history about her country. She is a good driver and is flexible to take you where you would like to go! We really appreciated being able to make requests. She is professional and a wonderful guide! We highly recommed her if you'd like a quiet tour without a crowd!
Thank you so much for your kind words; it was truly my pleasure hosting you 😀
Helvig is charming, knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with. She gave us a private 3 hour, very comprehensive tour of Curaçao that brought the island alive for us. Our time with Helvig was thoroughly enjoyable. 10 stars!!!!!!
Thank you so much for these wonderful words! It was my pleasure to host you :)
This one-to-one tour with Helvig on Curacao was the perfect way to see the entire island in just a couple of hours. She had a brand new, clean SUV with air and was a wonderful driver. She tailored the tour to my interests so we saw all sides of the island. We did stop at several beaches though taking in the sun wasn't on my agenda, taking in the gorgeous scenery was! She is deeply knowledgeable as someone born and raised on the island, and college educated abroad. She was able to provide an overview of the island its people, culture, history, economics, lifestyle and industry. I highly recommend both Helvig and this create your own 2-3 hour island tour. If you've never been to Curacao this is a great way to see the island and learn about it in a short visit. I left feeling I'd really seen Curacao. You can customize this tour to include a downtown walking tour as well. Helvig was delightful, professional and knowledgeable.
I am so happy to learn that you had such a wonderful experience! It was my pleasure to be your host. 😊
Helvig is the most knowledgeable tour guide we’ve ever experienced. As a native of Curaçao, she is personable and incredibly knowledgeable about the island, its people and their culture. This was the first private tour we’ve ever taken. The tour was reasonably priced. Her vehicle was comfortable and well-maintained. Helvig tailored the tour to our interests and made sure we saw the highlights of her island.
I’m so glad you enjoyed your tour! I truly appreciate your kind words. Take care :)
We booked a private 4-hour tour for my husband & I in Willemstad, Curacao. It was our first time here & we used AI to assist us in planning stops with a focus on photography, architecture and history. Thankfully we got Helvig van de Laarschot as our tour guide whose family has lived in Willenstadt for generations. She was more than happy to accommodate our requests for things we wanted to see. She was well versed in the history and all the private & charming alleyways. She was very personable and there was no question she could not answer. Her SUV was brand new & spotless. We were on a combination walking and driving tour and she certainly exceeded our expectations. The bonus is that she speaks fluent English, Dutch, Spanish, & French. We would hire her again in a heartbeat if and when we return to Willenstad!
I am so glad you enjoyed your tour with me. Thank you so much for your kind words. It was my pleasure hosting you!
Our private tour with Helvig was a most enjoyable and informative 3 hours. Our ship docked at 12:30 for a tour scheduled at 1:30. As we prepared to disembark, the heavens opened up. I contacted her because there was no feasible way for us to reach her in the rain. She was more than accommodating allowing us to wait a little while until the rain let up. It's obvious she love her country. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone that loves that special touch
I’m happy that I was able to accommodate and make sure you enjoyed your tour :)
Helvig was super knowledgeable and shared the history of Curacao in detail. She patiently gave us extra time in the grocery store. Highly recommend this tour and guide.
Thank you for your kind words. It was my pleasure to host you :)
Our tour guide is a native of Curacao. Our goal was to see as much of the island as possible in 3 hours and she made it happen! She was well informed and very interesting. I cannot recommend her higher. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was my pleasure :)
We saw a lot of Curacao and she was very willing to adapt to whatever it is we wanted to see. We really liked discussing local issues and architecture.
Thank you so much for your kind words. It was my pleasure to host you! :)
Our tour guide, Helvig, was terrific. Her pride in Curacao was evident. She took the time to not only to explain the history of the island, but much about the culture. She was very accommodating and a real pleasure to spend time with.
Thank you so much for these uplifting words. We are thrilled that you enjoyed your time with Helvig. We hope to see you back one day!
