This excursion was amazing! I was so scared at the beginning but the gentleman guiding made me feel EXTREMELY safe and comfortable, which eventually made me calm down. It is a such a cool experience that I never thought I’d want to do (because of my fear). But I’m so glad I did it! I highly recommend trying it out. If it weren’t for the guides and their pleasant energy, not sure if I would’ve been able to complete the tour. It is a good amount of time under water so you don’t feel exhausted as you’re walking. Thank you to the team! Don’t second guess it, do it!
Such a fun and unique activity! From start to finish, the entire team of instructors and divers were incredibly collaborative, experienced, and made us feel completely safe. The instructions before we went under were very clear, and they guided us every step of the way, which was so reassuring. The real highlight was feeding the fish, it was so much fun to have them swimming all around us! As a cool bonus, the divers also made mesmerizing underwater rings out of air bubbles, which was such a treat to watch. Just a heads-up: check-in can be a little confusing at first since they run another snorkeling tour at the same spot, so make sure you clarify which group you're in. Once we were sorted out, everything went smoothly. Would definitely do this again!
This is a must see adventure if you’re looking for excitement in Curaçao. Everything about this adventure is amazing. From the inviting welcoming atmosphere to the stunning views under water feeding the fish. And the tour guides Johnson and Santos are Top Notch and the best. I told them I couldn’t swim a lick and that I was terrified of the water going over my head. Listen when I tell you they pacified my fears and made this one of the most beautiful and memorable experiences I’ve ever seen. Please don’t deprive yourself and just go. Take it from me if I was able to do it and enjoy every single minute you can too. The only drawback is the time passed way too quickly had me wanting to spend more time under water with my no swimming afraid of the water shenanigans. Go! Do it! Money well spent.
We arrived at 11:00 AM and were informed that there were only two working cameras available. We were told that if we wanted footage from our excursion we would have to wait until one of the two groups returned so that a camera would become available. Of course, we agreed to wait because having the footage and being able to look back on those memories was a huge part of the experience for us especially since this was part of my birthday trip. We waited TWO full hours only to then be told that the camera had somehow been “lost at sea.” I am beyond upset and extremely disappointed. We could have spent those two hours actually enjoying our vacation instead of sitting around waiting. What makes the situation even more weird and frustrating is that when the larger groups returned from their excursions, they were able to purchase their footage with no problem. Yet after we specifically waited two hours because we were told a camera would become available for us, we were the ones who ended up with no footage at all. The entire situation just does not sit right with me. This was supposed to be a special experience and memory from my birthday trip and instead it turned into a complete disappointment. We wasted hours of our day due to something completely outside of our control and now we don’t even have the footage we specifically waited around for. Considering that we are leaving tomorrow, this honestly put a huge damper on my birthday trip. Had we known this would be the outcome, we absolutely would not have wasted two hours of our vacation waiting. I do want to give a special shoutout to Mishairo because he showed us an amazing time during our helmet diving excursion the day prior. He was great, made the experience enjoyable and I truly appreciated the service he provided. Unfortunately, despite the positive experience we had with Mishairo, the way this situation was handled was unacceptable and left such a bad impression that I would never book with this company again.
Thank you for your review and for joining us on two of our excursions. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience overall. Regarding the photos from your first tour, we completely understand your disappointment. Unfortunately, during your excursion, another guest experienced a panic situation underwater. Our guide immediately prioritized that guest’s safety and rushed over to assist them. While doing so, the action camera accidentally became unclipped from his vest and was lost in the ocean. The safety of our guests will always come before anything else, including our camera equipment. This was an unfortunate and unexpected incident that was outside of our control, and despite our efforts, the camera could not be recovered. We appreciate that you chose to return for a second excursion, and we’re happy that you enjoyed that experience as well. While we understand your frustration about the lost photos, we hope it’s also understood that emergencies sometimes happen, and our team will always respond by putting guest safety first. Thank you again for your understanding, and we wish you all the best.
Great experience!! I would tell everyone to use them. The guide was fantastic and made us feel so comfortable. I enjoyed this beyond words my husband will be talking about this for a long time
The experience was soo dope.. I recommend this excursion we got a little history about the island. And everyone was so nice 10s across the board
I’m not gonna lie I was mortified in the beginning. But as I started to explain, and you could see the diverse professional licensed diverse around you with many years of experience, I began to relax. I am the biggest chicken on earth and if I can do it, anyone can do it. Furthermore, I will say this to you. It is an experience that you must have once in your life it’s you’re like me and deciding that you want to return then it is definitely gonna be a listed item that I will do every time I come to curaçao.
Definitely worth going. Great for people who can't swim yet want to experience the underwater world.
Recomended, even if your a little claustrophobic, you will enjoy the ride and de sea life. You do not go very far from shore, neither too deep.
Crazy experience! So much fun and adventurous!!! Underwater fun. Nice. Such a good time! Definitely will do it again
