Private Guided Curaçao Island Tour

We like to learn about the history and culture of the places we visit. Our guide was Tyrone and he was awesome. He knew the history and lived the culture. He also showed us the beautiful beaches as well as historical landmarks.

Mayrond was an awesome tour guide! He gave us a lot of the history of Curaçao and made sure to take us to the best beaches. He even had snorkel gear for us! We also visited a fantastic restaurant on a cliff and watched cliff divers. All in all an amazing day. Strongly recommend this excursion.

This experience is well worth the price. We experienced not only the sights of Curacao but learned some of its lesser-known history. Tyrone, our guide, is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about this history. He also provided some very stimulating conversation during the trip! The only part that was could have been better was the air conditioner in Tyrone''s vehicle had just broken down. Thankfully, it was a very pleasant day on the island, so this was not a distraction from the tour. I would highly recommend this to anyone who likes to not only appreciate the beauty of Curacao but also what has made it into the state it is today.

We had a poor experience with the provider, Bearded Butler. We reserved, as advertised, a 5 to 7 hour private island tour of Curaçao a few days before the day of the tour. We received an automated reply thanking us for booking a 4.5 hour beach tour. This is not what we wanted. The two messages I sent to the provider via the Viatour app asking for clarification went unanswered. The day before the tour, I received a messages via Whatsapp from Tyrone (Afro Tours) notifying us that he would be our tour guide. Bearded Butler subcontracted our booking to Tyrone. We explained the situation to Tyrone, who contacted Bearded Butler. Soon afterwards, Beaded Butler contacted me. I replied again that the tour listed on Viator was different from what he was offering. He replied that the listing was confusing and could understand our confusion. However, he said that he could not offer the tour advertised at the cost we had paid. We had to pay an additional $60 for the advertised tour. I gave the tour 3 stars, 1 for Bearded Butler and 5 for Tyrone. He was great. He has a wonderful sense of humor and is very knowledgeable about Curacao's history and culture. I would recommend booking directly with him.

I had an incredible day with Tyrone, my guide, who is very friendly, knowledgeable and did a fantastic job giving me a cultural/historical background of the island. Highly recommend!

This was so awesome! I was fortunate to be paired with Tyrone. He was so very knowledgeable about Curaçao and its history. I told him I wanted to know about the country, its history of colonialism and enslaved Africans and he knew it all! He was kind, fun, and catered the tour to my desires. He took me to see the flamingos, turtles, the government building, and more. He truly loves his job and that makes it all the better! I now have an experience I'll never forget because of Tyrone!

Tyrone was great. He was on time and very professional. He asked me what I was interested in and customized the trip around that. What a great way to see the island.

Tyrone is amazing, so muck knowledge of island culture and history. We did not have a clear plan for the tour of what we wanted to see, so we let Tyrone show us his Curaçao, he did not disappoint. We went places a tour bus could never go. We enjoyed every minute of our tour

First off Tyron was amazing! Such a knowledgeable guy with so much information and history. Unfortunately the state of his vehicle was subpar. The passenger side back door did not open. The inside was filthy. During the tour the interior panel of the driver side back door fell off. We were with my sister and her husband and were looking forward to a 'private tour', which to us implied a bit more luxurious. Unfortunately Tyron's vehicle really brought this tour way down. We also stopped for lunch. Tyrone joined us, which was fine, but he didn't even offer to pay for himself (which would not have taken but the fact that he just assumed we were paying really irritated my husband.

Ty was fantastic and kind as he showed us around the island. We loved learned about the history and culture while exploring lots of amazing places in between! We saw sea turtles, flamingos, Watamula, we swam at a beautiful beach and even got to do a cliff jump into the ocean. We made amazing family memories in Curacao and would love to return someday. Thanks Ty for being an amazing guide and finding fun for us and our kids!

My family had an amazing time with Bearded Butlers! They picked us up at our location on time, tailored the day to our wishes (including Sea Turtles, Caves, and Flamingos added bonus of a lunch with a Cliff Dive for myself and daughter), and went beyond the scheduled time to ensure that we got to see the great island of Curacao!

I spent the day with Kenji! He picked me up at my hotel and we chatted about what I wanted my day to look like and he made it happen! Super kind, flexible, knowledgable & just a great person.

It was great tour and saw so much of the island! What beautiful landscape and seeing sea turtles. This island is beautiful with so much history! Highly recommend seeing the island and taking this tour, Perfect timing from getting off the cruise ship to drop off timing. Thank you

This was a comprehensive tour. We started with a stop in Willemstad, some history about the city and slavery with a view of the bridge and the square. Then off to the North, drinking from coconuts and watching waves after wandering through the National Park. So many beautiful and different beaches, where we saw sea turtles and flamingoes. Highly recommend touring with Tyrone. He knows his history and the land!

Great experience around Curacao. We saw all of the interesting sites and learned a lot about the island from our guide Waldemir and his helper. Waldemir was so helpful in giving me directions to the meeting place and all of the information I needed before we even met. The bearded butlers were great with giving us information and showing us the island. I would recommend this tour.

We loved every minute of the tour. Couldn’t have asked for better guides. I would definitely recommend and use them again myself.

Tyrone is great! Very knowledgeable about the island. You took us to places that we wouldn’t be able to go to otherwise and gave us lots of in-depth information about the history of the island in addition to places to eat, etc., and of course, the best beaches.!

This was the best private tour I've had in years! Thank you so much for making us feel like longtime friends. I would definitely recommend these private tours to anyone visiting the beautiful island of Curaçao ❤️

We booked this tour because of the great reviews. Last stop on an 8 island cruise and we've done private tours on each stop. We wanted to end with a high note. About 14 hours before our tour, we get an email from Bearded Butlers they would like to add someone to our PRIVATE tour. Being out on another tour, I didn't see the email until I get back into port. About 14 hours before our tour and as we're leaving the island/country to head to Curacao, we get a message from our guide that he's picking up someone before he picks us up for our private tour. Now it's past the 24 hour deadline to cancel the tour, and it's hard to find a decent tour for 12ish hours later. So we're scrambling trying to figure out how to handle it, get a refund, and book another tour. At this point, we're considering doing one of those sketchy guides at the port. To Bearded Butlers credit, they DID contact me the next morning with apologies and did refund our money, but at that point, it pretty much killed the energy on our last stop for this cruise that we had planned 8ish months ago.
