A perfect day in Bonaire

Jennifer_S, Mar 2026
We had a perfect day in Bonaire with Saskia! She was there to greet us at the cruise port and off we went! We learned a lot about the history and wildlife on the island, including donkeys, goats, lizards, iguanas, fish and of course flamingos. And we were lucky enough to see salt being harvested. We leave here with many fond memories. Thank you Saskia!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hi Jennifer, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re so glad you enjoyed your day with Saskia. One of the things guests love most is the flexibility of a private tour, no fixed route or schedule, just a relaxed experience where you can take your time and enjoy every stop along the way. It’s great to hear you got to see so much of the island’s wildlife and even the salt harvesting such a special sight! Hope to see you again on Dushi Bonaire. Saskia is so happy with your kind words to, really makes her day ;-). Sunny regards, Kirsten and Saskia

Verna was amazing! She...

Joy_O, Mar 2026
Verna was amazing! She took the time to explain Bonaire and pulled over so we could see wildlife. Verna made our first time in Bonaire memorable!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you so much for your lovely review! How nice to hear that you had such a great time with Verna. She truly knows so much about the island and has a special way of sharing Bonaire. And of course, she loves making those little stops along the way so you can really experience it all 😊 I’m so happy she could make your first visit to Bonaire such a memorable one—that’s exactly what we aim for. Hope to see you again on Dushi Bonaire! Sunny regards, Kirsten and the Team

Lovely Day !

Lucy_M, Feb 2026
Best way to see Bonaire ! Kristen was so fun and we learned a lot of history and saw the most wonderful spots on Island! Our family truly enjoyed our North and South tour of Island ! We even had time for a wonderful lunch with Kristen at Sebastian’s also enjoyed watching so many people kite surfing ! Thank you Kristen! 🏝️☀️

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Dear Lucy, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! I’m so happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed the North & South tour. That day had such a nice, relaxed flow, and I loved exploring the island together with you. Bonaire has so many beautiful corners and stories, so it’s always wonderful to be with guests who truly appreciate both. And yes… lunch at Sebastian’s with that view is never a bad idea. Watching the kite surfers dancing over the water is one of my favorite Bonaire moments too. Wishing you many more sunny adventures and hopefully see you again someday! Sunny regards, Kirsten

Indepth Private Tour of Bonaire!

Linda_N, Jan 2026
Verna picked us up at the cruise ship terminal and took us on a personalized tour of both the North and the South of Bonaire. We let her know we were not interested in touring the liquor factory or shopping and that we prefer photo stops, wildlife, etc. We were thrilled with our stops and the photos we took at 1000 steps, Karpata, Goto Lake where flamingos live in their natural habitat, Rincon that was established in the 16th century, & a quick stop at a cactus liquor distillery where we saw many colorful birds! On the south part of the island we went to the salt mines and were able to pick chunks of natural sea salt to take home. We also stopped to watch the windsurfers & hydrofoils. This was one of the best tours we've ever taken!!

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Hi Linda, Wow, reading this made us smile from ear to ear! We absolutely love how clearly you knew what you wanted (no shopping, no factory tours, just Bonaire at its best 🌴), and Verna had such a great time tailoring the day exactly to that. Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. Reviews like this are exactly why we love what we do. We hope those photos (and that Bonaire sea salt!) bring back sunny memories for a long time to come. Who knows… maybe we’ll see you back on the island one day. Sunny regards, Kirsten & the Team ☀️

Amazing Tour!

Laura_D, Oct 2025
Sass was amazing! The instructions on where to meet were clear and concise. Sass was very sweet and the kids loved her. She was so knowledgeable about the whole island. She changed the order of things and took us to the best little beach bar where we had the greatest lunch. I would recommend this tour to anyone!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Dear Laura, Thank you so much for your kind words! It makes us really happy to hear that you and your family had such a wonderful day exploring Bonaire with Saskia. For us, every tour is all about you, your pace, your interests, and making sure it becomes the best day of your holiday. Because our tours are fully private, we can adapt everything to your wishes, whether that means changing the route, finding a cozy spot for lunch, or adding little extras like drinks and local tips along the way. We always do our best to go above and beyond your expectations, and it’s great to know the kids enjoyed it too. We hope to welcome you back one day for more unforgettable island adventures! Sunny regards, Kirsten and Saskia

A fun and fascinating tour!

MarkKeinath, Nov 2024
We had the great fortune to book a private tour of Bonaire with Kirsten. We got off our cruise ship a bit early but she was ready and waiting for us! Her vehicle was spacious and comfortable. Her driving skills were perfect. We felt safe the whole time. We drove around most of the island seeing natural (1,000 Steps Beach for example) and man made (a distillery for rum and other spirits in Rincon) sights. She was not only knowledgeable but had a great sense of humor! We learned a lot about the history of the island and laughed a bunch as well. We can't recommend enough her hospitality and positive attitude. She obviously loves her job!!

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was my pleasure showing you around Bonaire and sharing a bit of our island’s history with you. I’m glad to hear you felt comfortable and safe, and that we could enjoy a few laughs along the way! Your kind words about my hospitality truly made my day. Wishing you many more fantastic travel adventures, and if you ever return to Bonaire, I’d be thrilled to guide you again! Sunny regards Kirsten

We loved doing this...

Excellent tour of Bonaire

Judy_B, Oct 2024
Kirsten brought us around all of Bonaire. She is very warm and friendly, but also very knowledgeable about the island, its history, and its people. She is the best! Book her if you can; you will not regret it!

Absolutely Great Experience

Kirsten was wonderful and exceeded all expectations. The personalization of the tour was great and her knowledge of the island made it an enjoyable experience. We were able to stop for a bit and grab some cappuccino and espresso on a wonderful beach. Transportation was extremely comfortable and highly recommend this tour.
