What To Expect
Curacao
If you are interested in sight seeing and just relaxing on the boat, we will tour through Spanish Waters (which is located on the East side of the island). This area of the island is home to many marinas, some impressive houses and nature with its mangrove area as well as beautiful landscape with coral stone rock formations and its view of Tafelberg. The max amount of sight seeing is about 1 hour. Of course this time can be adjusted to your wishes.
Tugboat Wreck
No trip to Curaçao is complete without spending time out on the Caribbean Sea and snorkeling at the Tugboat Wreck. The Tugboat Wreck should not be missed. It lays shallow in the water and besides the wreck you can see a variety of fish and coral. Besides the Tugboat we can also visit other snorkel sites in this area. The "scheduled" snorkel time can be adjusted to your wishes. If you are an avid snorkeler we can extend the time.

5.00We highly recommend chartering a boat with Battina and Marc of TRIP AND TREAT- VIP Boat Tours for our personal experience was beyond awesome. They made our three- hour boating trip fun, safe, and so memorable. They are truly professional boaters who handle their customers with care and flexibility. Battina and Marc presented us with many options of what our boating experience could be and asked us to communicate our individual preferences before proceeding. They then tailor made the trip to our specific requests, giving us a boating trip which perfectly reflected and exceeded our family's expectations. Additionally, their boat is clean, shiny, and well-kept, another indication of their professionalism. When we go back to Curacao, Battina and Marc will be on our 'to list' once again! It was a beautiful experience.

5.00This was the highlight of my trip. I had debated between this and a sunset cruise and so glad I chose this. Bettina and Mark had a cooler full of ice ready for us. We brought our own food and drinks which was awesome (my child has food allergies) and had a picnic on the boat. They gave us a few suggestions on activities and allowed us to choose what we wanted to do and for how long. Both are very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. Highly recommend this over a large group excursion.

Marc navigated the windy and choppy waters perfectly, Bettina was always making sure we were comfortable and filling us in on the history and happenings of beautiful Curacao. We couldn’t have asked for a better day! Perfect communication, clean, comfy and safe boat, and overall wonderful day! Thank you so much!
