Jonny, Jose, and Oscar were amazing!!!!! The sunset cruise was a blast. The drinks were flowing, the music was pumping, and the rope swing was so much fun! Johnny did backflips and taught us how to have a great time. Jose navigated us to an incredible good time. Oscar had the best dance moves and was the safety expert. Highly recommend this experience! Was the highlight of our trip

We did the sunset open bar experience. It was me, my wife and my 3 kids (23yo, 18 & 18). Crew was great and the rope swing was awesome. Great views, but if you're not going have drinks and/or do the rope swing I'd do the other options.

Make sure you wear a swimsuit and your sense of adventure! Your lively crew will have drinks waiting for you.

It’s fun! The crew is fantastic as well as the views and sunset. The Rope Swing is the highlight of the experience even if you don’t give it a try. Everyone having a great time!
Eisen_L, Jul 2026
We booked this sunset cruise expecting a relaxing evening, but it fell far below expectations. The biggest disappointment was the sunset itself. Instead of stopping the boat so guests could take photos with the sunset in the background—like other companies do—the crew rushed back to the dock while the sun was actively setting, completely ruining the view and the experience.
The activities on board were poorly managed. Even though the boat was only 1/3 full, the line for the rope swing was incredibly slow. We had to wait 20 minutes for every single turn, which made no sense given how empty the ship was.
To top it off, the crew were not entertaining or welcoming. There was zero energy or effort on their part. Save your money and book the Pelican catamaran cruise instead. Their crew were amazing and they provide far better service.

Thank you for your feedback. I'll share it with the team.

If you're not into the rope swing, it's a waste of time and money. We expected a little more show.. such as the crew dressed as pirates and messing around in a comical way.
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Thanks for your feedback! 😊 We may not be real pirates, but we hope you enjoyed sailing Aruba's beautiful coastline with us. Wishing you safe travels!

After you do the consent form acknowledgement, you need up pick up physical tickets. The QR code was not enough. There should have more detail instructions.
Martin_L, Jun 2026
This is our second time on this excursion; one for snorkeling, rope swing and some drinks & the sunset cruise with the rope swing and drinks. We loved both and would encourage you to do at least one of these on your visit to beautiful Aruba. Fun and engaging crew that make it even better.
Stephanie_S, Jun 2026
It was an amazing time, we would love to do it again. Me and my family had an awesome time and the crew was great.
Response from Host, Aug 2026
Thank you so much for your great review! We're thrilled to read that you and your family had an amazing time on our Jolly Pirates Aruba Sunset Sail. 🌅 There's nothing like sailing Aruba's coastline with great music, an open bar, and our pirate crew. Come back anytime! We'd love to welcome all of you bk aboard again! 🏴☠️

Crew does a good job ensuring everyone is enjoying themselves. They played good tunes and good drinks to enjoy the outing and watch a beautiful sunset!
Tara_S, Jun 2026
They made sure everyone had a great time! So glad we decided to do this. Best night of the trip! Both of the 20 something’s had a blast on the swing!
Jennifer_M, Jun 2026
We had a great time. Great music and drinks. Met lots of fun people and the rope swing was fun. Scary! But fun haha. An experience of a life time and the crew was hands down the coolest.
Mauree_A, Jun 2026
This Jolly Pirate Sunset Sail was really fun and worth it! Make sure to bring swimsuit if you are willing to do the rope swing, there is an open bar however it does not come with snacks or food. Other than that, the music was great, the drinks was great and the workers was great. Shoutout to Johnny who made the sail fun and the others as well!!
Maria_N, May 2026
It was fine. I think I’ve been on other boat excursions that were a lot more exciting and fun. The stuff was nice, but I did notice that in other trips they would let people snorkel and they did not provide us with that or let us do that when I was on the boat. The open bar is very limited.
JamesP_T, May 2026
The Jolly Pirates sunset cruise was a LOT of fun! The crew were so friendly and kind. The drinks were good, the sunset beautiful, and everyone on board was jolly! The rope swing was a big hit. Highly recommend!
Kimberly_D, May 2026
The overall experience was fun, but more specifically the drinks were good, the crew was entertaining, the sunset was gorgeous, and the rope swing was amazing.
Bernyne_W, May 2026
This excursion is worth every moment and the cost! Fun crew and great vibe. The sunset view is incredible.
Jill_H, May 2026
We had a fun time out on the water, but sadly it wasn’t a great sunset that night-which was a bummer. The rum punch was yummy though and the staff were very kind! The tender ride to the pirate boat was the worst part and didn’t seem super safe.
everett_j, Apr 2026
We had a ball and would recommend it, if you want a lively and fun and entertaining boat look no farther book before it gets full period.
Lisa_S, Apr 2026
Such a fun few hours on the water with dancing and a beautiful sunset. Highly recommend for any age.
kevin_s, Apr 2026
It was a fun time and the scenery is wonderful. Fun crew that got everyone having a good time. Not too crowded, plenty of room for everyone!
Cindy_D, Apr 2026
Fun, even with alcohol everyone was in control, safety was evident, fun show the staff put on climbing the ropes at the end.
sophia_J, Apr 2026
Our 2 hour tour was so fun. The crew made sure we were having fun and safe. Scenery was beautiful and interactive
Isabelle_H, Apr 2026
This excursion was really fun probably one of our favs, had the best staff and recommend this to everyone visiting! It’s a must!
William_D, Apr 2026
20 minutes of sailing each way, anchored the rest of the time to do rope swing. Great for kids, not for adults looking for a sunset cruise. The crew was great
rebekah_m, Apr 2026
It was amazing. The guides were funny, hospitable and professional. The views were breath taking. The swinging into the water was exciting. Worth every penny would highly recommend.
