Top Curacao Private Sightseeing Tours - page 3

This is an awesome excursion. The trip out to Klein was rough, and multiple people got sick, but the crew did a really good job with getting everyone situated with that aspect. Klein is an awesome spot to check out the lighthouse and shipwreck, swim, and hang on the beach. The BBQ lunch was great as well. On the way back (with much calmer waters), the crew turned the boat into a dance party with the drinks flowing. While many people on the boat were saying they aren’t going to get on a boat again for a very long time because of how rough the trip out to the island was, I’m still giving 5 stars since that’s entirely out of the company/crew’s control and every aspect of their handling of the day was fantastic.

This is probably the best excursion I’ve experienced! Angel was our guide and he was really nice and knowledgeable of the different stops on the tour. We went to the ostrich farm, passed the caves, and visited the windmills which were breathtaking ! I highly recommend doing Eric’s ATV Adventures East Tour. I would go back as well to do the west tour

Our driver & guide was Lisa and she was fantastic! She was knowledgeable, funny, accommodating and the best bus driver I’ve ever met! She switched the order we would see and do things (due to cruise ships arrivals) in order for us to get the most out of the tour. The beaches were beautiful, the turtles were so cool, the history you learned during the drive was wonderful and the amazing waves at Shete Boka National Park were something to see. Unfortunately the flamingos were too far out to see well but we learned all about them. There were 21 strangers from all over the world on this bus but by the end we were all fast friends singing karaoke on the way home! It takes a great driver / tour guide to get everyone involved, make sure everyone is having fun and Lisa exceeded in this. I would highly recommend this tour.

My wife and I recently (June) stayed at Sandals in Curacao. We wanted to explore the island and were going to rent a car but they were sold out. We went online and found a private tour where you could create your day long custom tour. My wife and I wanted to explore Willemstad, snorkel with a chance to witness sea turtles, a nice waterside place to eat seafood and places to make photo memories. Well, we could not have imagined what was ahead when we were picked up in our own private van with Alberto at the helm and Anita providing the color and background to our journey. We learned Anita had come from the Netherland over 25 years ago and Alberto was born and raised on the island. The both of them were so nice and inviting and Anita's knowledge was willingly shared and my wife and I learned so much history and how life is on the island. Our first stop was Willemstad and the beautiful colorful buildings and Queen Emma Bridge. We learned on a walking tour about the history of the government and parliamentary buildings. Anita left us for a bit so we could explore and shop. We boarded our van for a tour through the city's neighborhoods with Anita giving us background on the religious, cultural and lifestyle of folks on the island. We then had a stop at the Flamingo sanctuary where we were able to see Flamingos in the wild! In communication before our excursion we had asked to go to a spot where we had the best chance of seeing Sea Turtles. Well, it just so happens Anita is a volunteer with the Island's Sea Turtle conservation program. She brought us to Daaibooi Baai (Bay). Anita explained if she is able, (meaning small groups, small van tours) she brings guests to this little beach. She says it's more locals and we'd have a great chance at seeing turtles. My wife and I donned our gear and walked towards the shore. People were standing in the water looking for turtles. Anita spotted one right away just feet away from several people who didn't see it. Clearly Anita knew what she was looking for. After about a half hour of seeing a few colorful fish along the rocks, my wife and I headed back to shore feeling that seeing a turtle in person underwater would have to wait. As I approached the shore I stood up and took my mask off when my wife poked at me. There was a green turtle who had come up from behind us. I put my mask on and we were able to swim with the beautiful creature before it disappeared into darker water. Woo Hoo! We then stopped at Christoffel National Park and Plantation Knip. We had the pleasure to meet Anita's son who is a Park Ranger! Shete Boka National Park was our next stop where you can see waves crashing a spouting skyward and a natural bridge that crosses the jagged, rocky shore. We next headed for lunch. As I communicated with a representative of Samurai tours prior to tour day, my wife and I wanted some local seafood on the water. Anita, did not disappoint. We stopped at West Punt and Playa Forti, an old fort now a restaurant. We were escorted to our reserved table for an amazing lunch and local cliff divers! After lunch we made our way back to our resort and Alberto was amazing at stopping or slowing so we could photo sites along the way1 Our last stop was a stop at Senior&CO Curacao distillery and some wonderful samples. After 8 hours that passed like 20 minutes, we were back at our resort thanking Anita and Alberto for a most unforgettable day! Processing this journey days later we are grateful for such an opportunity we had. If this is indicative of all Samurai tours, you won't be disappointed.

Our excursion was absolutely unforgettable, and a huge part of that was because of Ms. Anita. From the moment we met her, she treated my husband and me like family. Her warmth, kindness, and genuine care made us feel welcomed, comfortable, and valued throughout the entire experience. Ms. Anita went above and beyond to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves, answering questions, sharing her knowledge, and attending to every detail with a smile. Her passion for what she does shines through in every interaction, and it truly elevated our excursion from great to exceptional. If you have the opportunity to tour with Ms. Anita, consider yourself lucky. She is not only an outstanding guide but also a beautiful person who makes every guest feel special. Thank you, Ms. Anita, for your hospitality, care, and for creating memories that my husband and I will cherish forever!

Our Tuk Tuk driver & guide (Rolando? Roland?), super nice gentleman, picked us up at the hotel. he was an excellent guide, taking us to various parts of the city & explaining the history. We did the two-hour tour, and glad we did. Be prepared to HANG ON, as these little Tuk Tuk conveyances can go fast and take corners at quite the speed! We enjoyed it very much. Highly recommend!

Fun buggy ride, fun (but dirty) way to see some great sights. We stopped to swim with turtles (really big, healthy looking turtles will swim right up to you), visit caves, and lunch at an amazing beach front restaurant. Bring a face covering, like a gaiter or bandana and your snorkel gear for maximizing the experience.

A great experience! I liked that you get to go to three different places in one day and admission is included for everything. Swimming with the turtles was really fun. Be warned though that the first beach is a fisher man’s beach so you are going to be swimming with fish guts since that is how they attract the turtles. But the tour guide let us know everything ahead of time and gave very clear instructions on when to come back to the bus. Pick up an drop off to the hotel is also included
