Curacao Excursion Question

[digital_curator]

Please don't refer me to the Curacao Board- I have posted there with very little response- this board is not as active as many of the other ports.

 

Two questions:

 

1. If people bought Curacao liqueur where did you buy it and for how much? Is it cheaper at the factory?

 

2. Has anyone done the Animal Encounter Snorkel/Scuba at the Sea Aquarium? What did you think? Is it hard to get to the aquarium by taxi/bus?

 

O.k. so more than two questions, but I appreciate any info.

 

Cheers,

We took a private tour to the Curacao Factory and the driver took us other places that we would not of seen had we not gone on it. I don`t remember the price of the curacao but I did buy it and thought it was a reasonable price. I also bought the cologne and after shave which had a lovely scent. I bought something similar to vick`s which was very good. and I bought a refreshing splash that they sold and some soap. I liked everything I purchased from the Curacao Factory. I would purchase them again. Happy Sailing, Joy

Thanks Joy,

 

I haven't seen a lot of tours that go to the factory. Do you remember who you went with?

We had a taxi driver that had taken us from the Pier to the cannopy tour pick us up after the tour and take us for a tour of the Tequilla Factory and sightseeing. I know we met others who did the same thing there. I think a taxi would be the way to do it. Happy Sailing, Joy

The bottles of some of the curacao were in delph china which were very unique! Happy Sailing, Joy

Thanks for the info Joy.

 

I love the sound of the curacao in delph bottles- that will make a special gift for those back home.:)

They had different flavors of curacao as well as the original curacao. Happy Sailing, Joy

[digital_curator]

Joy- what other flavours?

 

 

I was a bartender and the only one I have ever heard of is the orangy one, though I know it comes in a variety of colours....

I remember they had a coffee flavored one! I think I bought a small assorment of the different flavors in a box I will have to look and see what other flavors. Happy Sailing, Joy
