    Cancelled Without Notice!
    Robert_T, Apr 2024
    Tour was cancelled due to "not having enough participants." Unfortunately, we found out after we woke up early, rushed through breakfast, and walked all the way to the meeting point! NEVER RECEIVED ANY COMMUNICATION FROM VIATOR!!!
    Informative but not safe.
    Doris_L, Apr 2024
    Zuly was very kind and charismatic at all times, her knowledge was DUSHI evident. Unfortunately I have to give it 3 stars to this tour due lack of safety and poor maintenance of the truck. The driver Victor should drive slowly when passing through the street braking strips since people sitting in the back of the truck hurt their backs. The trucks should be properly maintained, you could feel and hear a metal plate on the seat, plus the floor had a tear, you could see the rim and it is very dangerous if someone gets their feet stuck by mistake. Samurai Curacao please fix your trucks.
    Fantastic excursion

    Had a great time in Curacao with a knowledgeable guide who was able to make all the excellent photo stops and still get us back to the ship on time. Mambo beach was beautiful and plenty of shops.
    Fun and interesting tour
    Susan_D, Mar 2024
    Janet was an awesome tour guide. We loved it! Janet was very informative and had a great sense of humor.
    Fun in Aruba!
    Mary_B, Mar 2024
    Our guide, Dale, could not have been nicer. He accommodated all our requests. We visited so many sites that we would not have know about before hand. He shared his knowledge of the island through out the tour. He obviously likes his job- a lot!
    Half Day Tour
    Brian_M, Mar 2024
    Our driver made the trip very memorable. His knowledge of the culture and sites was very impressive! We enjoyed this trip very much. Bring a bathing suit IF you want to swim ( bring money to rent loungers). There are shops and restaurants but, if you are here with a tour and dont sit to eat or swim there might not be enough to do for the time you are there.
    1/2 day perfect tour!
    Maria_P, Mar 2024
    We are a family of 6 adults , including 2 elderly parents; we had a great half day tour with Brian. He provided insights of the Curaçao history and cultural influences. We appreciated his kindness with our mother who uses a walker; he assisted her in/out of the vehicle at each stop. We recommend this tour if you are looking for a short tour of Curacao that provides you great views, history, curaçao tasting and walking tour all with our fun guide Brian….this tour is the one for you!
    Awesome

    Wonderful Excursion
    Kim_W, Feb 2024
    Glen was a great guide. We learned so much about Curacao on this excursion. I loved the wedding cake house story, visiting the distillery and the stories about the artist that painted the murals. We had a great day with Glen.
    Great tour
    Suzanne_B, Feb 2024
    It was a great tour to get to know the island. Glen was a very knowledgeable driver and tour guide. Also enjoyed our time at Mambo Beach. Had a drink and typical Dutch snack at one of the beach bars and swam in the beautiful water. Really enjoyed this tour!
    Awesome
    LaTonya_O, Feb 2024
    Fantastic way to see the island! Glen and Angie were knowledgeable and fun! This is the tour you want !!’
    First time in CURACOA. Learned a lot.
    djz622pq7x, Feb 2024
    Thanks Glen, Really appreciated your friendliness and all the information you gave us. Highlights were seeing the different neighbourhoods, the bridge, and some incredible views. Enjoyed learning a little about education on the island and what we would call ‘social housing’ and historical drug problems which have been largely cleaned up making these neighbourhoods safer. Several amusing stories and of course the CURACOA distillery. A very worthwhile tour. Sian and Peter Morris Feb 8. 2024

    Gleen was our guide. He provided us with quite interesting informations throughout the tour. Thank you
    Good overview, great guide - but be aware Curacao is closed on Sundays!
    Ian_H, Jan 2024
    Pickup prompt, van comfortable and Glen was an excellent guide. Great overview of Curacao history and its diverse geographic areas. Unfortunately everything in Curacao (including the distillery) is closed on Sundays. Mambo Beach is a bustling beach resort area and we didn’t need 2 hours there, so Glen was very accommodating and made a special trip to take us back to Willemstad early.
    Wonderful half-day tour in Curacao
    CarrieS_D, Jan 2024
    Bryan led us in a wonderful tour of Curacao. He was very informative, patient and kind. You will be in good hands with him.
    Great Tour of Curacao
    Felix_D, Jan 2024
    The Samurai tour exceeded all expectations – impeccably organized and filled with fantastic experiences. Our tour guide, Glen, was not only knowledgeable but also ensured a safe and enjoyable journey around beautiful Curacao. The culmination of the tour at Mambo Beach added the perfect touch, allowing us to savor and extend the joyous moments. Highly recommend!
    Great experience
    Maya_W, Dec 2023
