The tour of the eastern beaches of Curacao with our guide Lisa was simply unforgettable! Lisa was fun, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area. She made the tour lively and entertaining, while also sharing fascinating insights about each spot. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and we captured countless photos. Each beach had its own unique charm, from secluded coves to vibrant, open coastlines. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Curacao!

We took a catamaran tour, great service, punctual, itinerary within the range offered by the website.
Very attentive and helpful staff. Food and drinks offered were of good quality.
The only caveat is the excessively loud sound that prevents passengers from enjoying the beautiful nature and even talking.

I booked the Sunset tour with Irie Tours In January 2023. The booking process was fast and simple, I actually booked the night before online since there were still a few spots available. They also have an office located across from the Renaissance Hotel. We chose to have the Irie bus pick us up for an additional 10$ each to enjoy the experience. We were actually upstairs in our room at the Renaissance hotel when the front desk called because the driver was waiting for us. It was great that they did not just leave us behind. The driver was so nice and funny, I canāt say enough about him. We passed by about 4 other hotels for the other guests of the cruise, the ride was easy and not to long. Everything was explained step by step from how to check in, obtain your boarding and pass and how to proceed after the cruise. Check in was fast and easy especially if you completed online release forms ahead of time. We boarded the boat on time and we were debriefed on everything that we needed to know by Orson. He was great, very personable and funny. The Captain steered the boast just right even over some tough waters at times. We were served a mix of drink including rum, vodka, and blu curaƧao and of course soft drinks, juice and water. They also served some food bites including cheese pockets, meatball, and chicken sate which was all included in the cover price. The Views were amazing and made for some great photos. The amount of time out on the water I thought was perfect. The ride back to the hotel was fast and easy. Overall I would recommend the Sunset cruise with Irie tours.

We did the City Tour, led by Emma, and had a wonderful experience. The tour lasted from 930-130, and we were able to see and understand aspects of CuraƧaoās unique history, art, and culture. Emma and the driver were both friendly and engaging. Emmaās enthusiasm for the island is contagious! The tour offered a range of experiences ā walking through local streets, looking out at views over Willlemstad, visiting the CuraƧao distillery, seeing flamingoes, and spending an hour at the beach. Throughout the tour they offered refreshing water, juice, and beer. I highly recommend this tour for a great overview of the island, and you can also get tips for the rest of your stay!
***Dont forget to bring swimwear even though this is a city tour. It stops at a beach for one hour. We forgot to read the fine print in advance!***

We booked two trips through Irie Tours-the sunset sail and the adventure tour featuring turtle snorkeling, playa porto Marie, and the Hato Caves.
The sunset sail should have come with a warning that it would not be for those who get seasick. Beyond that, it was a really nice way to sail around the island and see a beautiful sunset.
The adventure tour we had, led by our great tour guide Miguel, was a lot of fun, and was a particularly good deal cost-wise. There were a lot of people (outside of the tour) swimming around the turtles, which made it more difficult to enjoy. The cave was a really nice part of the tour and gave a nice natural history of the island. Overall, the tour itself was a good way to see the island if you are doing a more all-inclusive type stay.

Funny guide, I learned a lot of interesting details about the country. The program was also OK, you can always see more, but not really feasible in one day with pick-up from the hotel for several guests. The tour is a good alternative to private tours, which cost almost three times as much.

Catamaran tour - The crew made a nice impression and it started off very well - there was a selection of drinks (including alcoholic ones) and snacks. The trip itself was beautiful and the scenery was interesting. Unfortunately, some of the passengers, especially young women, got drunk pretty quickly and behaved quite vulgarly - they harassed the crew and especially the person at the helm - the volume and the cheering was very disturbing and unpleasant. Even on the bus ride back to the hotels, these passengers continued to cheer. I felt sorry for the poor bus driver who had to put up with them - thank God our hotel was one of the first and we were happy to get off.

Hello Beret, We're happy to hear that you found our service, crew, and the trip to be very good. We're pleased that you enjoyed it! We're sorry to learn that your experience was affected by the behavior of some guests, which led to some disturbance and prevented you from having the best time possible. Not only that, but we also feel disappointed to receive a low rating, especially considering that you mentioned having an amazing trip, and it was only due to the behavior of a few guests that your overall experience was affected negatively.
We appreciate your feedback, and we will take it to management. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.

We had an amazing weekend camping with Irie tours at klein CuraƧao. You leave Saturday morning around 8am and you will be back Sunday 3pm. As far as I could find, Irie is the only provider of such a trip.
The journey in the catamaran, drinks (open bar) and food is included (breakfast, lunch, dinner, breakfast). There was not enough wind to sail unfortunately but the trip on the boat was amazing.
The straf was friendly and super easygoing. They made us feel welcome and didnāt make a problem of anything. Always a smile!! Off course we were also lucky to share the boat only with around 15 people only (because of covid). Other guests were mainly locals and Dutch people who live there (they all have a discount). But still it was worth all $125 pp for the trip (touristprice).
We had to arrange our tent and air bed/ hammock. The breakfast was very minimalistic and the granola bars were done before we could grab one. However, the staff was friendly enough to give us loads of watermelon instead.
A bit more variation in music would have been nice, but we were super happy to hear our song request when we approached curacao (when there was WiFi again).
All in all I would recommend Irie for the campingtrip to Klein curacao. Bring some own drinks for the evening (bar closes 8pm) and some snacks and enjoy the stars!

Hi, we'll be arriving at 9:00 a.m. at the Cruise port on March 18, 2020. We are interested in the West End beach tour. Will we be able to make the tour since the cruise doesn't dock until 9:00?
Written February 11, 2020
Is this booked through the cruise line or did you book it independently? If you booked it through the cruise line then others from your ship will be in the same position you are and I feel confident you will make the excursion. However, if you booked it independently the I strongly suggest you contact the company booked this with for the best answer. Remember from the time you arrive to the time you exit the ship will take some time as well.

I am trying to decide between the less expensive East Side Tour or the one you did. One of the reasons I like the one you did is the caves. Did you or anyone in your group go in the caves? If so, was it worth it? Thanks!

We are booked on the All West Beach Hopping Tour. I've tried to look at some photos from reviews, but I can't tell which beach is which. I know it's a beach tour, but are some of the stops more for the views, not the water? I am trying to determine if beach attire is appropriate or if we should take sneakers with us for some of the stops.

I just wore a swim suit with a sun dress over it and water sandals. We had our own snorkeling gear and went snorkeling at all the beach stops. Shete Boka NP was beautiful and my water sandals (TEVAS) were great for climbing the rocks. I would say one thing that you don't want to forget is 50SPF sunscreen and a wide brim hat! I live in FL and reapplied sunscreen after every swim and it still got me...
