Activity description
Trusted local pickDiscover Curaçao’s historic city center, where Dutch heritage meets current artistic development to form a beautiful balance between the old and new. Enjoy beautiful vistas and a delicious local lunch at the Plasa Bieu on this half day tour.
We start off our tour in the district of Otrobanda, where your guide will point out and explain all the highlights of this part of the city. Take pictures of the famous floating bridge, the colorful Handelskade and take a short scenic walk to photograph murals and street art in the recently revived area of Frederikstraat.
Next, head to Fort Waakzaamheid, this fort dates back to 1803 and is perfectly situated with a great view on the entrance of our harbor and coastline of Curacao. Take scenic pictures, with Willemstad in the background!
We continue to make our way to Landhuis Chobolobo, where the famous Genuine Curaçao Liqueur is made. On our way there, we will also pass the historic district of Scharloo, a former Jewish neighborhood, home to many historic buildings currently classified as monuments and the reason why Curacao is listed on Unesco’s World Heritage List.
On arrival at Landhuis Chobolobo, take the self-guided tour, taste the delicious liqueurs and buy some souvenirs to take back home.
Now it is time for lunch! Enjoy a delicious local meal at Plasa Bieu (at your own cost). After lunch, you will have some free time to go shopping at our Round Market in Punda.
After this afternoon feast for your taste buds & some shopping time, our last stop is at Parke di Lucha di Libertad, a park dedicated to the fight for freedom from slavery, after which we will take you back to your hotel for a hard-earned siesta or beach afternoon.
Why travelers book this activity
Travelers book this to actually learn about the island — its history, culture, and architecture — instead of only doing beach or boat tours.
It’s short, efficient, and fits easily into your schedule. Ideal if you don’t want to spend a full day on a tour.
The lunch stop at Plasa Bieu gives travelers a real taste of local Curaçao cuisine, not a tourist menu.
No need to figure out routes, parking, or what to see — everything is structured and guided.
