  • Great Tour

    Signed up for the Hato Caves, Flamingo and Beach Tour. Our driver and guide was Glen, he was very friendly and did the tour in both English and Spanish. We started out with a tour of Williamstead followed by Hato Caves, stopping briefly at the Flamingos and lastly Kokomo Beach. I would definitely recommend this tour. The only thing I would advise people is that everyone runs on Island time do have patience and give no worries.

  • Amazing!

    Our family loved this tour! (2 adults + 11 year old, 7 year old). The cave was really neat to see (with a great & knowledgeable tour guide) and Daaibooi beach was amazing! We got to swim with sea turtles, which was incredible! Definitely would recommend. Unfortunately, we only saw 2 flamingos, but understand that it can’t be helped. Just know that it’s possible to not see many. We were also incredibly thankfully that the tour waited for us as our cruise ship docked a little later than when the tour was supposed to leave. The lady who checked us in was so kind & helpful. Our guide was very nice also.

    This was by far one of the most incredible excursions me and my fiance experienced here. Our tour guides Glen and Tiara were the best!!! They were very friendly and knowledgeable about the country. We were staying at a resort that was not listed as a pickup option because it’s too far out but we really wanted to do the excursion and both Glen and Tiara still came to pick us up. PLEASE BOOK THIS TOUR IF YOU ARE IN CURACAO!

    Be prepared to walk up and down steep stairs totally worth it though. We got to visit more than one beach which was also fantastic

    Do not book this tour unreliable. The guide never showed and we did not receive a refund. I messaged the tour operator when we couldn't find him and never answered. I tried calling, also the port authority person tried calling and no answer. Viator refuses to give me my money back

    Our tour guide Glen was kindhearted, well informed, and incredibly professional. My husband and I instantly felt comfortable and at ease with him. He was very timely, helpful, and made sure everything ran smoothly throughout the Hato Caves and Beach Tour. Glen’s knowledge of Willemstad was refreshing and engaging, and he took the time to answer the many questions we had along the way. His insights made us feel as though we were part of the city rather than just visitors. The tour was well organized, enjoyable, and absolutely great value for money. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and are extremely happy we got Glen for this experience. We will definitely be recommending this company to our friends who plan on visiting later in the year.

  • Nice tour…but the beach portion needs to improve

    The overall tour was nice and highlighted by the trip to the caves. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and funny. My only gripe with the tour is the beach that we went to was very crowded and they charged for EVERYTHING. And when I say everything I mean it. From the shower to wipe the sand off your feet (coin operated shower head) to the toilet paper for the bathroom. I found that to be very tacky considering what we paid for the tour. I suggest working out a deal with the owners at the beach to include a wrist band and some basic amenities.

  • Special thanks to Rossana!🤩

    Great places with lovely & caring people. The most remarcable was the attention of Rossana, who made my Christmas wish come possible, stopping at a place to get a special handcraft for my granddaughter, waiting there for me while bus left & then came back to ta pick us up… She come back an hour later to the cruise port, to deliver the pillow I forgot in the bus. Big thanks to Rossana & best wishes for her!🙏🤩
