Xiomara was fun, knowledgeable and real. We saw what Otrabanda had to offer and things to come back for. She talked about music, food, cultural highlights and the history of how the island became Dutch and what that means today. Be prepared to walk cause you will be walking through the two hr tour.
Thank you so much. Wes appreciate this. Greetings, Jacqueline
Our guide was a true local who shared so many stories of life on the island. We met friends and neighbors while visiting their stores and even had a back yard snack while our guide and the homeowner sang a local song and showed us how to dance local style. The formal parts of the tour were great too. I just wish we had also crossed the bridge and toured the section of colorful dutch buildings that is shown in all of the photos.
Thank you so much. We appreciate this. And indeed our colorful city has a lot of this Dutch buildings (monumental). Great to hear you have enjoyed it. Greetings, Jacqueline.

This walking tour was great, listening to the history of Curacao and seeing the joy and warmth of its people in the streets of Otrabanda. Everything is very beautiful. Jackelyne guided us and is very kind.

MEGA LIEF! Bedankt voor jullie review. En jullie tijd en aandacht. Is van Xiomara haar kant met veel liefde gedaan. Nogmaals dank. Groetjes, Jacqueline.
The tour was incredibly informative, and I learned so much about the history of the island. Our tour guide’s passion for the people, culture, and community was evident every step of the way. She brought the island’s history to life through engaging stories and personal insights, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. It felt less like a typical tour and more like sitting through the most fascinating history lesson with your favorite relative someone who genuinely loves sharing their knowledge and wants you to fall in love with the island, too. I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience the heart and history of Curaçao.
Beautiful. Thank you so MUCH for your amazing review and enthusiasm as well. With a lot of Love. Greetings, Jacqueline.
This was a historical Authentic walking tour. Mixed with culture art and the real Curaçao. I would do it 10 times over again. There was also other solo travelers on the trip which made it so more enjoyable.
