Top Aruba Private Sightseeing Tours

I have been a charter boat captain for 15 years, 10 in the Virgin Islands and 5 in San Diego, CA, so I have an exceptionally high bar for customer service, safety and overall tour experience. Prior to even getting on the tour, this company was extremely well organized and every single employee I came in contact with was friendly and helpful! Great first impression. Then after we got onboard the boat, we got a detailed yet brief safety briefing. Other boats in Aruba Id been on, never even gave one and did not care about safety at all plus the boats were in extremely poor condition. Huge plus that safety matters to this company, especially as a solo female traveler. Captain and crew were respectful, professional and fun which is a difficult thing to accomplish but they did it extremely well. Two snorkel stops with briefings, very relaxed trip and crew made it a point to speak to all the guests and be a part everyone’s experience, not just certain groups. They made this experience wonderful for everyone and didnt just hang out at the helm away from guests. It’s hard to impress me as Ive run boats in the Caribbean for a decade- but I never tire of seeing turtles and at one point I had 6 around me. You cant plan what will be in the ocean, but all crew pointing things out to all guests to make sure you get the best out of their experience is a huge win for all! Working boats 2-4 trips a day in the sun and saltwater is hard, it wears on your body and even though it’s beautiful- the job and being “On” can be exhausting day after day. This captain and crew did an excellent job keeping people safe, engaged and tailoring the tour to each group of people on board. Plus the music level was amazing- thank you for NOT having the music blaring. People still had fun and partied but the kids and older (35+) people on the boat still have their eardrums! This is THE tour for all ages. Again, I have an exceptionally high bar for snorkel boat tours, and this one is one I would would absolutely do many times again. I believe the Captain was Dennis and the crew was Brandon & Junior (sorry if I got that wrong) you all were great and know that you're appreciated from someone that understands all that you do, not just for the things that are seen by people on the tour. I rarely leave reviews but the ones that really go above and beyond deserve recognition. Thank you for a wonderful trip, my first trip to Aruba has been one for the books and it will not be my last. When I come back to Aruba, I will be booking on Red Sail again. Please make sure this review gets to the guys that worked this trip so they know are very much appreciated! Thank you very much for the amazing experience!
