      Spectacular Food & Culture Tour – A Must-Do in Willemstad!

      Chloe_W, Jul 2025
      The Private 3-Hour Willemstad Culinary: Foodie Tour was truly exceptional! We love food tours as a way to connect with a place, and this one exceeded all expectations. Our guide, Helvig, was phenomenal — a third-generation Curaçao local who shared her deep knowledge of the island’s history, culture, and cuisine with honesty and passion. She gave us an insightful, balanced perspective on Curaçao’s past and present, all while leading us through the beautiful streets of Willemstad, pointing out stunning architecture and its cultural significance. The food stops were diverse, delicious, and reflective of the island’s rich multicultural roots. We ended the tour feeling full — not just in our stomachs, but in our hearts and minds, too. Helvig brought the spirit of the island to life, and we’re already dreaming of our next visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an immersive and meaningful cultural experience. Thank you, Helvig!

      Helvig was absolutely wonderful. This food tour felt like a casually stroll through stroll through Willemstad with a good friend. The selected food stops served delicious local food and cocktails. All the while getting some info and history about the island and the city. We enjoyed our time with Helvig and absolutely do recommend this food tour!

      This was a fantastic food walking tour. Guide was very knowledgeable and very nice. I would definitely recommend. Remember to wear comfortable shoes as this is a walking food tour. You won't be disappointed in the experience.

      Our tour guide was so knowledgeable, friendly and fun. Her food choices were authentic and she explained the process and how each dish became a traditional one.

      Freakin Amazing

      Five stars isn’t nearly enough to describe our experience. Imagine an old dear friend taking you around and sharing with you the experience of their culture and favorite eating spots. If I had to describe us it would be as “real foodies without the attitude”. On the culinary side we could not have been happier. The first stop, at the restaurant where the ad photo was taken was one of the best meals we’ve had - so fresh and innovative - no way to describe it adequately as it has to be experienced. The rest of the stops were also superlative. During our walking adventure we learned so much about the culture and history of Curaçao. The one thing that was even better than the food was our conversation and interaction with Helvig. The other review posted is spot-on and there just aren’t words that exist that adequately express how much we enjoyed our time on this tour.

      Response from Host, Dec 2023

      Thank you so much for your wonderful review of our Foodie Tour. We are thrilled to hear that your experience was nothing short of exceptional. Your description of feeling like an old friend was showing you around warms our hearts, as this is exactly the kind of intimate and authentic experience we strive to provide. We're delighted to know that we hit the mark in showcasing the culinary delights of Curaçao, especially that unforgettable meal at our first stop! Your kind words are greatly appreciated, and they inspire us to continue delivering top-notch experiences to our guests. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back on another tour in the future.

      HELVIG IS AMAZING!!!!

      Renee_A, Aug 2023
      The review I write will not do the experience justice but I will try my best. My husband and I are big foodies and always try to find unique food experiences wherever our travels may take us. This one was over the top! First off, Helvig is in fact... amazing. She is a great conversationalist and ridiculously familiar with the history of the island as she is multi-generational in that regard. She is also very humorous if you are inclined to allow her to be so. I would have attached pictures as I do in fact have many, however, that would spoil the surprises that await you should you be fortunate enough to book this tour. Thanks to her and the experience we WILL visit Curacao again which was ZERO CHANCE prior to the tour - due to a horrible resort experience. It is my understanding that she has different tours with some being without the food experience. Whatever the experience is..... just BOOK IT!!! Bonnie and Clyde Greenville, SC
