If you want to see the real ins and outs of Bonaire take this tour. Remy was a great guide and so informative. So knowledgeable and showed us all around the Island. We appreciated learning all about the island; its history and seeing goats, donkeys, parrots, and oriole, canaries and iguana. Highly recommend for those who want an authentic tour and to really learn the Island’s rich history.

Was interesting lot more walking than described in highlights not for someone who can not walk far or on a walker etc. plus there are NO public restrooms. I felt bad for the 5 people on our tour that had both these health issues. unfortunately for the rest of us we did not get to do the entire tour based on time restraint.

This tour was amazing and Sandra was such a great tour guide!! I couldn't recommend her enough. I learned a lot about the area, it's history and how the culture and island has grown in the last 8 or so years. Sandra was also super helpful with stopping a few places for me!! I truly appreciate it.
