sjde Posted April 13 #1 Share Posted April 13 We're looking at cruise itineraries in the Caribbean . I always like to include a new port or two. We've been to a lot but there are still quite a few ports we haven't been to before: Bonaire, Curacao, Grand Turk, Puerto Rico ,BVI , Dominica, St Croix, Dominican Republic and Grand Cayman. Looking mostly for natural beauty, interesting architecture and photography, though shopping and food is good too! Not interested in adventure sports. A nice beach maybe for an excursion. So tell me why we should choose Curacao? TIA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Thedonkeycentrehalf Posted April 15 #2 Share Posted April 15 We did the free walking tour of Willemstad which took us to some interesting buildings and local art which gives some good photography options. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tour is free and the guide - Rayay - relies on tips afterwards but he is a great guide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTEllis Posted Saturday at 01:27 AM #5 Share Posted Saturday at 01:27 AM The walking tour is free because you don't need a guide. I walked around town several times by myself. Willemstad is a very nice very family oriented town. Sidewalk entertainment great vibe and nice little home bars. You can walk all over town by yourself or with your own group on your own time do whatever you want without a guide. There's thousands of people everywhere you can't get lost.

Good to know that if we don't get a guide, its easy enough to do alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTEllis Posted Saturday at 02:34 AM #8 Share Posted Saturday at 02:34 AM Yes if you're going into town you want to go on your own time. No worries no hurry. People everywhere, great shopping great little pubs. It's a nice town to walk around great vibe. I'm just saying it can certainly be done by yourselves. I'm solo and I really like walking around Willemstad too many nice little bars to much to do and see on someone else's time. If your a bar hopper like I am you'll be in heaven. Have fun 🤜🤛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTEllis Posted Saturday at 02:48 AM #10 Share Posted Saturday at 02:48 AM When you get off the ship you'll walk into the Curacao Welcome Center. You can pick up a nice fold up walking map of the city it's FREE. Just pick one up as your walking into town. You'll see it. FREE. It helps a lot and it's very easy to figure out, and it's fun. 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends what you want. Yes, you can just walk around yourself like in any place. The walking tour guide gave us a load of really interesting information about the history of the island and the city as well as giving us background into the art works around.
