Quality tour for a bargain price

What a great tour! The morning began with the history of the distillery. Tino was an awesome tour guide. Then it was onto the tasting and free drinks and ice cream. This tour exceeded my expectations. Well worth the price!
Excellent Tour

WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE! 10/10!

What an amazing experience!
This is a MUST DO while visiting this beautiful island! 🇨🇼 Our tour guide, Tino, was entertaining and exceptionally educated on the history of the Distillery. He truly made it an adventure to remember!
Now let’s talk about the liqueurs. “The Genuine Curaçao Liqueur” is an understatement to the quality it delivers. It goes beyond saying that this product is easy to appreciate! They had so many delicious drink options that made the deluxe package worth getting 2 drinks!
Everyone was so polite and helpful!
I FULLY RECOMMEND!
10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very informative experience!
Erin_H, Apr 2024
It was a cool and informative trip! 4 stars only because of the amount of tour buses coming through, though that’s not something that’s entirely controllable. We did have our own private seating area for our tour group, which was very much so protected from the chaos of the tour buses. Our guide was wonderful! I recommend the deluxe package as you can get 2 drinks from it. There are MANY options to choose from! Perhaps consider keeping general tour times separate from the tour buses to create more of an intimate experience? The store was also awesome and I got several goodies to come home with!!!
Was informational … great tour guide . But tour buses are very disorganized
Lisa_G, Mar 2024
Arrived early for your . Very beautiful facility . Tour guide was great .small group . But tour buses started showing up and very large disorganized groups of people just started wandering around unguided . Disrupting our tour . Several times . The liqueur is very good . Got samples at the end and a drink to enjoy in a private area . Which was nice
Well worth it

Very interesting tour that included some history of the island and the surprising origins of the distillery and the Curaçao production process. We had an excellent guide: Ingo. He did a great job giving the tour in three languages: Dutch, Spanish and English.
Pretty Normal Distillery Tour
Lisa_H, Mar 2024
Ingo, our guide was very good. There were a lot of kids on our tour and he was good at managing them while still getting the information out. Two cocktails and a private seating area were included, so definitely worth it - plus, we knew we had a spot locked in.
Not what you think it will be
Heidi_P, Feb 2024
Our tour guide Igor was great however, it was not an individual tour it was 25 plus people. Several people came in and joined the tour that didn't pay and then 3 buses of people showed up overran our group and we could not see or hear anything. Total disappointment - not worth the $18 for a drink
Drinks for all!
Tianna_J, Feb 2024
This tour was great. The guide (Tino) was very knowledgeable of the history of the distillery and the liquor making process. The tasting at the end was great along with the bar drinks.
Excellent experience
Naomi_M, Feb 2024
Tour was well organized, guide was friendly and very knowledgeable! Would recommend this tour to anyone!
Great tour
Merylee_B, Jan 2024
The tour was very interesting and the drinks were good also. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and a lot of fun. We had a great time.
Not really a “private” tour.
Elisa_H, Jan 2024
This tour was a great way to learn some of the history of the famous and authentic Curacao liqueur, as well as some history of the how the Senior family came to live on the island. The drinks at the end were also very tasty and refreshing on a hot Curacao afternoon. The only downside of the tour was that we had purchased what was advertised as a “delux private tour”. All of the people for a selected time go on the tour together, so it’s not “private” which you pay extra for. That being said, the delux tour does come with 2 drinks per person instead of one. Overall, I would recommend for anyone in need of a break from the sun.
Curaçao distillery—just the best
Daniel_S, Jan 2024
Fascinating history behind the development and production. Well worth it and the people are just fabulous!!!!
Very fun small tour
Barbara_M, Jan 2024
This is our second time doing this tour. It is not long but is very fun and informative. Really a nice break from the Curaçao sun.
Save your money and skip this tour
Marcia_F, Jan 2024
We arrived for our scheduled tour and were immediately overwhelmed with the amount of tour buses and people - it felt like the chaos of Disneyland on a crowded day. Tour was short, not very informative, and the drinks included at the end of the tour were lacklustre to say the least. Save your money and read about the origins of Blue Curacao on the internet, and order a drink at a bar to taste the liqueur, or better yet, just buy a bottle at the grocery store and save yourself the headache.
