The first stop is the Hato Caves—a true gem of geological wonder. Upon entering, you’re greeted by cool limestone formations, stalactites, and stalagmites that have been shaped over thousands of years. The guide’s insightful narrative about the caves’ history, from their formation to their use as a hiding place for escaped slaves, makes the experience all the more enriching.

It’s a unique introduction to the island’s natural and cultural heritage.

Next up is the snorkeling adventure with turtles. The crystal-clear waters of Curacao are perfect for getting up close and personal with these gentle sea creatures. The guides are attentive and knowledgeable, ensuring everyone feels safe and comfortable in the water. Observing the turtles glide effortlessly through the water, surrounded by vibrant marine life, is a truly magical experience.

5.00Great tour! Bus picked us up promptly at our hotel and took us on a great day of sightseeing. Caves were very interesting and cool. Next was the snorkeling with sea turtles which was amazing. Getting into the water is a little rocky, so recommend water shoes, but snorkeling was great once in. Saw at least three different turtles including a baby one. Incredible experience to be able to swim so close to these amazing turtles. Lastly we spent over 2 hours at a nearby beach with restaurant that had amazing shrimp and tuna poke bowls. The clincher was the playa beach club located at the site with an amazing infinity pool that had the best views and great drinks for sale. Anita, the tour guide, was super nice and helpful, eve going out of her way to write a list of places for us to go see on our trip. Can’t say enough nice things about her. Would recommend this tour!

5.00It was a great day. Hato caves was a nice experience but not overly impressed. Playa Piskado which is turtle beach was beautiful seeing the turtles and heaven on earth for me Playa Kalki. The best small beach I have ever seen in my entire life
Nice time

5.00Amazing tour!! We only wish we could have seen the downtown area. A little disappointed that at the lunch location once you finished your lunch, you were not permitted to use the beach chairs or any sitting area unless you paid money.
