Highlight of trip
The walking tour with Joaquin was one of the highlights of our trip to Curacao. We did the tour early in our trip and it really helped us appreciate the country's culture and art. Joaquin also gave us great recommendations for places to go later in our trip. We spent 3 hours with Joaquin walking the streets of Willemstad. Having an informed guide really helped us, and our kids, understand the significance of the art and architecture. We would never have discovered so much of the magnificent street- and public-art without our guide.
Operator response
Thanks for a great review, makes me want to continue doing and showing the wonders of Otrobanda and Punda.

Colourful Willemstad
Willemstad is a delightful city. We had a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide in Joachim who told us of the past history, the modern politics and showed us the abundant street art whose duel purpose is to preserve the traditional buildings. He gets our vote for a great guide. Not to forget the home made ice cream treat.
Operator response
Thanks for a great review. I'm glad you liked the Li.

The best experience!!!
A wonderful experience. Joaquin is an exceptional guide. With him I learned the culture of Punda and Otrabanda.
We toured unique places and he introduced me to local artists... We had the opportunity to visit art galleries and the workshop of a wonderful artist.
He tells you the story in a fascinating way.
This is an unusual tour, it is the best option if you want to know Curacao in a pleasant way.
