Itinerary
The beautiful beach of Grote Knip (Kenepa Grande), where you can enjoy exceptionally lovely crystalline seawater for 30 to 40 minutes, will be our first stop.
Later, we will travel to Piskado Beach to get the unforgettable experience of swimming with turtles in their natural habitat, which you must do when visiting Curaçao.
Then we'll go local, to taste the traditional cuisine at the Playa Forti Restaurant, where the view of the sea, the warm Caribbean wind, and the flavor are all in abundance.
If we travel to the west of the island, we cannot miss Cas Abao, where you will be greeted with crystal clear sand, the sea, and the flavor of the Caribbean. According to National Geographic, this gorgeous beach is one of the world's 21 best beaches.
Finally, on our way back to the hotel, we'll stop at Jan Kok to observe the flamingos in their natural habitat.

Totally average day. The tour guide was more a driver. Didn’t learn a thing about Curacao. Beaches were very rocky to get into swim. Swimming with the turtles was very crowded. Didn’t feel comfortable swimming and then sitting crowded in a van all day. I would not recommend this tour. Driver was the main reason.
Our party of 9 had a great time with our fantastic tour guide, Poppy! He was incredibly entertaining throughout the day. We spent exactly the right amount of time at each of our stops on the tour. He made every minute of the day enjoyable, even when we were stuck in traffic! Our only disappointment was the stop to “swim with the turtles.” It was nothing like the beach was advertised to be. There were dozens of people crowded in the water around one or two sea turtles. The beach attendants were throwing chum in the water to attract those couple of turtles, making the water very unappealing. No one in our group was inclined to swim in that, which Poppy immediately recognized, and quickly responded by suggesting we move on to our next stop. It was very much appreciated. Overall, everyone had a great, and memorable day, thanks to our incredible tour guide!
I really didn’t know what we were signing up for, but decided to join our friends on this excursion. Best decision we ever made…. So much fun and I hurt from laughing so much!! Thank you Papi for making this so much fun!!
Our day with Rodolfo was excellent. The first beach, Playa Knepe Grandi, was our favorite, actually, but Playa Cas Abao was also wonderful. The water was so clear and inviting! And our stop to watch the sea turtles was amazing. Rodolfo kept us highly entertained all day with his energy and his informative commentary on the island. I would highly recommend this tour and this driver to anyone looking for a great day with beautiful beaches.
Papi was an amazing tour guides he really knows what he is doing. Clearly knows Curacao well and makes the trip fun! If you boom this, request PAPI!
If you want to have a great time, be treated like family like u have known each other a whole lifetime, if want to laugh and cry happy tears. If you want to sing dance be happy and enjoy life and enjoy your trip to the max. Papi is your man. He is such an amazing vibe and character super chill. The best guide best recommendations. The spots he takes you to are just breathtaking and Oo let’s not forget he does his own stand up comedy and takes pictures all included. Papi thank you I had a blast. And it was amazing to be there for the first time and meet someone from my hometown so far from it it was a blessing.
Nice way to check out many beaches! Also learned of areas we would like to visit! Pepi was very knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with.
Francisco was our guide and he was great ... knowledgeble, fun, a great singer :-). He went over and above to help us enjoy the tour and give us tidbits about Curacao. The beach where you swim with the turtles was a unique and awesome experience.
You spend about an hour and a half at each beach Not much time with turtles as we were on a time constraint. Had a flat tire and almost didn’t make it back to the ship in time
Honestly I don’t know where to begin with this review lol… All I will say if you’re in Curacao and want to visit different beaches book this tour ASAP!!!! Papi is very entertaining from start to finish never a dull moment with him!! If you’re lucky he’ll take you on the Curacao roller coaster. If I ever come back I’m booking this tour again
Papi made the experience worth it. He was very friendly and informative. The beaches where beautiful and more than expected. Papi u de man. I recommend him to all
Papi was full of positive energy, very informative and allows us to have the best day in Curaçao! I would recommend this tour to anyone. The beaches were so beautiful and seeing the flamingoes was the cherry on top! 10/10
I never write reviews but am this time. Book this tour! Papi brings the fun and goes out of his way to make it a great day for everyone. We had such a great day with him. We were a party of 8 - 2 families of 4 each with 2 boys. We saw turtles, flamingos, and beautiful beaches. The snorkeling was amazing. Can’t say enough great things! You won’t be disappointed!!!
This tour was fantastic! Papi and his crew deserve every 5 star review! Personable, fun, and almost out of his mind, they are worth every penny! Do not miss this tour!
A must do to explore the beautiful beaches of Curacao! This guide is the best! He makes you feel like family and you will have a great time!
For a fun time in the beautiful island of Curaçao, please take this fun tour! Papi is likely the tour guide most full of energy, sense of humor (if you are likely to be offended then this is not for you), fantastic taste in music, and yummiest fruit in town! We got to experience the most beautiful beaches and we even got to swim with turtles. Papi is a genuinely good person and soul and we were fortunate to have him along with others visiting the island on cruise that made our day incredibly memorable!
We had a blast with Poppy. He knew the island and gave us plenty of time to explore the beaches we visited! He was full of personality and so much fun!!
The tour was exceptional. I loved the beaches that we were taken to. Beautiful waters and atmosphere. We saw turtles and flamingos. Best of all was our tour guide Papi. Papi is a beautiful human being and someone you will always enjoy you time with.
Would definitely go anywhere with Papi. He is definitely a vibe Our tour consisted of 4 persons and he definitely made it so fun and enjoyable. Id definitely be back with thr rest of my family. Curacao is a dream! The beaches are amazing
Tremendous all day beach day with georgous beaches and scenary Our Tour guide was great and group were also nice
We had a WONDERFUL time on this excursion! Papi made our day SO fun! Lunch was delicious. The water was STUNNING. Seeing flamingos in their natural habitat was surreal. Then, the TURTLES! Dream come true. 10/10 recommend!
It was amazing! The beaches were beautiful and our host was a whole vibe! It was the most relaxing experience.
Papi began correspondence via WhatApp about a week before we arrived in Curaçao. Fortunately he reminded us of things to bring to make our trip most enjoyable. He picked us up on time, it was early, but he brought the energy. Our tour had 6 people which made it easy to relax and enjoy meeting new people. The beaches were beautiful, the food we ate at lunch was delicious. We were given insider information about different beaches, and how to get the best stay. Papi stopped along the way allowing us to take photos. We highly recommend touring Curaçao’s beautiful beaches with Papi.
The beach hopping tour with guide Papi was so much fun! Visit the beautiful natural beaches in Curaçao, as well, have lunch at a local restaurant overlooking the clear Caribbean Sea. Bring your sunscreen and water shoes- it’s a bit rocky to walk into the water at some beaches, but once you’re in, it’s a sandy bottom. Papi made the tour so much fun! We had a great time with lots of laughing.
The tour guide professionalism ond knowledge and the various location that we visited on the excurtion.
Papi was by far the best tour guide I have had in any excursion I have taken in the last 30 years. So much energy and knowledge about the country. Non stop from the time he picked us up. We stopped at 5 different places and he let us guide him as to how long we stayed at each destination. Five stars to papi!!!
Papi brought the energy wonderful personality full of laughs. We had a private tour with him and saw beautiful beaches and had a delicious lunch. Highly recommend he was the best!
Our guide, Papi was very entertaining! The beaches were nice too! Family enjoyed the restaurant we went to, as well!
Papi was AMAZING! Absolutely loved the tour his personality is unmatched and I will forever recommend him to anyone who’s traveling to Curacao. He’s so knowledgeable about the history of island so much energy making each beach so much fun and picked us up and dropped us off in hotel Made my birthday so special favorite part of trip
Nice tour and lovely beaches. We saw turtles and ate good food at the food trucks. The tour guide was nice.
It was an amazing experience. The beaches are amazing. Bring water shoes Poppy was amazing loved his energy
All I can say is this was a perfect and memorable birthday, Papi and Sexy are amazing . Papi was so energetic no dull moment ❤️❤️❤️
Do this tour! Book it now! Papi is an INCREDIBLE, smart and knowledgeable human being! I mean he speaks 5 languages and has the best most positive energy. He made the trip as amazing as it was. It was me and my 15 year old daughter. We went to (3) beaches in total, and all of us on the tour opted to get lunch at Playa Forti (you pay out of pocket for this). The first beach Grote Knip was beautiful, something out of the movies. Not crowded and room to swim and float. I brought my own snorkel gear and was able to see all the fish. There are jelly fish, who do sting. But other than that they’re harmless. Bring water shoes!!! The second stop was to the turtles which was a bucket list experience for my daughter and I. There were so many and they got CLOSE! 3 of them ran right into me haha. The 3rd beach was a little more crowded but it had a bar and a bathroom. Also jelly fish here but again, harmless. Papi supplied us with water bottles and even his homemade mamajuana recipe which I loved. His personality was amazing. And his way of viewing life and the world really helped me change my perspective on things, and I’d like to be more vivacious as he is. Top notch tour. Papi is the BEST! And you get to hit all the Curacao hot spots and learn about its history as well!
If you’re thinking about booking a beach hopping tour, do yourself a favor and ask for Papi. Hands down the BEST tour guide I’ve ever had. From the moment we started, his energy was unreal like, “full of energy” doesn’t even begin to describe it. This man kept the vibes going for a full 9 hours straight without missing a beat. He had everyone laughing nonstop, cracking jokes the entire time, and somehow still making sure every single person felt taken care of. Papi went above and beyond for everyone in the group. Whether it was making sure we were comfortable, hyping us up at every stop, or just bringing the best energy imaginable, he truly made the whole experience unforgettable. And I’m not exaggerating when I say this, he should have his own TV show. He’s THAT funny. Honestly, the tour alone would’ve been amazing, but Papi is what made it next-level. If you get the chance, book with him. You won’t regret it.
Poppi was the best tour guide that I have ever had. He was fun, funny, knowledgeable, and he engaged everybody throughout the tour. He made the tour a blast!
We had a wonderful day checking out the beaches with Pappi & the tour group! It was nice to be on a smaller group, and to spend time in different places. Pappi has great energy, and took excellent care of us.
We had an amazing full‑day trip to the west beaches of Curaçao, and the experience was made truly exceptional by our guide, Papi, and our incredibly entertaining driver. From the moment we boarded, Papi welcomed everyone like family. He took the time to learn our names, connect with us, and make sure we felt comfortable and excited for the day ahead. Papi’s energy was nonstop — upbeat, enthusiastic, and full of genuine passion for sharing the beauty of Curaçao. He kept the group engaged with fun stories, local insights, and constant positivity. You could feel how much he loves what he does. Our driver added so much fun to the journey as well. His humor, music, and playful commentary kept us laughing between stops, turning the bus ride into part of the adventure. Together, they were the perfect team. The beaches themselves were stunning, but it was the warm, joyful atmosphere created by Papi and our driver that made this tour unforgettable. If you’re visiting Curaçao, do yourself a favor and book this experience — and definitely ask for Papi. You’ll feel like you spent the day with family!
Poppi will guarantee everyone has fun. Super high energy. We normally do on our own adventures, but wanted to explore new beaches on Curacao. Loved Grote Knip and Cas Abuo!
The island is fun to see. We were able to see several beaches, turtles and flamingos. The first beach (Grote Knip beach) we visited was a bit small but beautiful. Charge for chairs on the beach. The turtle stop seemed a bit forced. An odd, toothless old man charges $10 to hold you while the turtle "eats off of you". Then flips you over and has you eat off of your backside. Did not seem to make the customers very comfortable. They are simultaneously cutting fresh fish and allowing the guts to wash into the water that you are swimming with the turtles in. The second beach (Cas Abao beach) was great. A lot larger and better parking. They charge for chairs, although they charge you to enter the beach park. But very nice and clean. It was raining really hard when we tried to see the flamingos so we didn't get out of the van. But still fun to see. So that leaves only one review. Papi the tour guide was fun to be around. He played loud music and was trying to have fun time and make connections with each customer. My only complaint is that he seemed to flirt and make comments to a level that made us feel uncomfortable. I have a very funny personality but I feel like he crossed the line many times. If we didn't have side of the experience, I would say it was a fantastic tour and a fun day.
Papi is the best! Our group of four took a private tour with him, and we had a long wish list — he made every single thing happen and then went above and beyond. His energy, his knowledge of the island, and his music made the entire day unforgettable. We cannot wait to come back and book Tour: Papi Edition, Part II. We truly couldn’t have asked for more. XOXO, your teddy bears & babies 🧸😘
The perfect mix of beautiful chill beach vibes, delicious food and banging tunes while driving from spot to spot. Papi is a great host and we would strongly recommend this tour to anyone up for some fun!
My teenage daughter and I had the most amazing time on this beach hopping excursion. Papi was the best tour guide! Very knowledgeable, humorous, and friendly. I learned a lot on this tour about Curaçao from him. The beaches were breathtaking! My daughter swam with the turtles. We ate a delicious lunch at a clifftop restaurant with beautiful views of the water and we saw people diving into the water off the cliff. We also saw flamingos. We really lucked up booking this tour. Due to a booking glitch, Papi only had 4 people on this tour, which was supposed to be his day off. However, he still was committed to taking us on the tour. We also ran into Papi at one of the beaches the next day while he was working and he was just as friendly and took pictures with us. Book this tour! You won’t regret it!
Amazing experience- I feel like I saw the whole island is a day. Papi is the best!! The man will have you laughing nonstop while giving you amazing insight of the island.
What a great excursion. Pappi and Big Sexy supplied us with one of the best excursions that we've ever been on. Our group of 8 loved every minute of this tour. Fantastic stops, Great local Eats, comfy transportation and non-stop communication and laughs from Pappi. I highly recommend this excursion. A++++++++
Fantastic day with papi! He’s such a fun person to be around and made our experience unforgettable. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to have a fun time (and doesn’t get embarrassed easily!!!) My stomach still hurts from laughing
Definitely need aqua shoes! Bring a lil Snack, since restaurant lines are long. Papi is great! Amazing Energy and Personality ❤️
We had a time!! Pure fun and laughter the whole time. Papi was great!! The beaches were beautiful. Food at the restaurant was good as well. We had a great time!!
Booked the beach hopping tour and had a wonderful time with our 4 yr old son. Perfect excursion with lots of energy to see different beautiful beaches around the island. Highly recommend :)
This trip with Papi was amazing. He's full of energy right at pickup. Mr DJ Papi has a tune for every turn. He's incredibly knowledgeable about the Island. With nothing but fun and adventure, I felt like we had plenty of time at each spot, he even ordered lunch prior to us getting there so we could have more beach time. The lunch views and vibes were awesome. Papi definitely made the trip an excellent time!!
