We had a blast. There were only 12 people on our trip so it was not crowded at all. The guys running the boat were so much fun. We saw beautiful fish while snorkeling and had fun on the rope swing. Of course the drinks were great also, especially the jungle juice. It was such a relaxing boat ride with beautiful scenery.

Awesome experience. We loved it and Jordan was super awesome helping on the rope swing. Would absolutely recommend
Rayner Garcia from jolly pirate is one of the greatest tour guide on the jolly pirate ship, he was funny and talked to all the guests he was a great part of the tour that made it the best ! Plus he face timed Johnny from Aruba for me and I had an opportunity to say hello to Johnny from Aruba that was special for me because I saw him on tv and I got to meet him on face time thanks to Rayner Garcia , I would definitely recommend the Jolly pirate Mr. Garcia and his staff are fantastic. Keeping you entertained flowing drinks lots of music lots of dancing A must excursion to take if you’re visiting the beautiful island of Aruba. Please say hello to Johnny from Aruba if you see him for me.! and a special thank you to Mr. Garcia for providing me with a great afternoon full of laughter. I will never forget it ! Again, thank you to the Jolly pirate staff and Mr. Garcia for providing me and my friends a fabulous afternoon! You guys rock 🇦🇼🇦🇼
We have been on the jolly pirate a couple times and just booked again for February ..it's a great time .
The crew on the jolly pirate snorkel and rope swing was lots of fun. So friendly, funny and helpful! We had a great time, but we think the pirates hid all the alcohol for when they got off work. The drinks were nothing but fruit punch. I am a lightweight- a half a drink usually gets me tipsy. I had 5 and all I felt was a lot of icky juice in my tummy. Don’t build up the bar if you’re not going to serve alcohol in the drinks. You could take lessons from the Jolly Roger in Barbados. Arg!
The crew made the experience lots of fun, drinks flowing, rope swinging was so much fun snorkeling was a bust just because of the rough water which the crew could not control
Snorkeling was good and kids loved the swing from the ship
Thank you so much for your review! Great to hear that you and your family had so much fun snorkeling and rope swinging with the Jolly Pirates Crew!! Come back any time!!
The trip was a lot of fun. The ship wreck was very cool and we saw turtles at the second stop. The rope swing was a lot of fun.
