5.00Ralph was very knowledgable- and entertaining. One of the best Trip Advisor supported tours we’ve ever been on. Transportation was comfortable and driving excellent. Ralph even went with us and assisted us within those places that had automated tours. And allowed plenty of time to view the exhibits at the sites. Highly recommended!!!!!!

5.00Ralph was extremely knowledgeable! He took us around to see and experience some of the Jewish history of the island! We were visiting the island to celebrate our daughter's recent Bat Mitzvah. He showed us some of the history on the island, showed us historical sites and took us to two museums. Our favorite was the Mikvé Israel-Emanuel Synagogue with the attached Jewish Museum. If you are interested in some history of the island this is tour is must!

5.00Ralph was an excellent tour guide! He is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the island and knows the history of the Jews on Curaçao going back to the 1600’s. From the cemetery, the distillery, the museum and the synagogue, he knows it all. We even had an opportunity to meet the rabbi who showed a genuine interest in us as guests to the island. I strongly recommend anyone who has an interest in Curaçao and the influence of the Jewish people to book this tour. It was well worth the time and money.

5.00Ralph is an absolutely wonderful guide who truly knows how to make a tour memorable. From the moment he picked us up in his spotless car, we felt completely welcomed and in great hands. Along the way, Ralph shared fascinating insights into the Jewish history of Curacao, and we had the chance to visit some incredible landmarks. The old cemetery was such a special stop, and the Mikve Israel-Emanuel synagogue, along with its attached museum, was definitely the highlight—such a unique place! Ralph also gave us a deeper understanding of the island’s culture, history, and language. His knowledge of the local architecture and topography was impressive, and he even took us to a flamingo pond, where we got to see the beautiful birds feeding. All in all, it was a fantastic tour, and I would highly recommend it!
