trvlbug Posted May 25, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Greetings all, We are due to arrive in Curacao on the Norwegian Getaway on November 4th. The problem is we arrive at 7 am and depart at 12:30. So if we are off the ship at 7:30 and back on at 11:30 will anything be open and will we have time to do it? We are thinking of walking around Punda , Handelskade and Otrobanda and then visiting the slave museum before getting back on the ship. I downloaded a walking tour so it seems possible in 4 hours with say an hour at the museum and 3 hours for the walk and stops. Will anything be open at 7:30 am? Any better ideas. We do not want to be on a bus! Thanks for your help. Trish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcmarya Posted May 30, 2015 #3 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Sounds like a good plan. Staying within walking distance of the ship is a good strategy for such a short stop. But, what a shame you won't see more of this lovely island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Answers Posted May 31, 2015 #4 Share Posted May 31, 2015 You can , without problem, plan a 3 1/2 hour tour. Doing the city and east. With options like the Ostrich Farm, Hato Cave and Swimming/Snorkeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted May 31, 2015 #5 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Consider seeing what your ship has to offer for shore excursions. :) With your port timing it could be a good option ...because if you are on a ship's excursion, you won't have to worry about getting back to the ship on time. ;) LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trvlbug Posted June 1, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Thanks everyone! With the rest of our itinerary being go, go go I think we will just do our walkabout and slave museum. Also, pick up a bottle of curacao. Trish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
