Our Ship was spending two days in Curaçao. I hired Ralph at Curaçao VIP tour guide and Taxi 160 for both days . We were three adults with different wants and needs and Ralph made sure everyone was happy and did what they wanted to do . He is a kind and friendly man with a clean and very comfortable car to take you around in . He happily accommodates everyone’s wishes.
We did the Jewish Heritage Tour , which is fascinating and beautiful. Ralph is very knowledgeable and we learned a lot . The first day we did a tour of Curaçao which included The Hato Caves which is magnificent.
I highly recommend Ralph for a wonderful experience in Curaçao.
