Afternoon snorkel with SNUBA add-on. - My wife and I went on the afternoon snorkel with SNUBA add-on. It was our first time trying SNUBA and we were both nervous. Our diver, Jayron, was excellent. We felt very safe, which allowed us to stretch our boundaries and have a lot of fun. Both the SNUBA and snorkel sites were shipwrecks. The crew was very professional. The boat had an open bar and sandwiches were served between the two stops. Would recommend!

The best experience ever!!!! - From booking the tour at the desk with Bibi and Wayne and the Riu Palace....to the actual tour it was amazing.. the captain and the crew on board (Patrick and Alex) the best ever. Patrick had great energy and was very funny. Two stops the shipwreck antilla and Catalina Bay were both great I would definitely recommend... if you are at the Riu Palace visit Bibi and Wayne(the best of the best!)

This was a party - The whole excursion was entertaining. I was intrigued by the information I learned. I was impressed while floating over the sunken huge ship.

Great Fun! - Great time with MaTThew and Jarrod on our 4wheel adventure across and around the Happy Island - Aruba. (Do note the spelling of MaTThew’s name - and don’t forget both Ts). Bumpy, dusty, and so much fun! De Palm Tours.

So fun! - We have an amazing time! They took us to 3 locations in the water. We got to see corals, swim with fish, see a ship wreck and see sea turtles. They played music. Gave us drinks. The lunch was very good (salad, rice, chicken, fish and a pineapple cake) Alex was the “MC” of the ship and was hilarious. Definitely recommend for anyone to do. Make sure to bring a beach bag with sunblock, a towel, flip flops and some cash to tip!

Catamaran snorkel tour - I booked the snorkel tour with de palm after another company on the island rescheduled my snorkel tour x3! My husband and I did the tide pool tour with de palm and had a wonderful time so I decided to book the snorkel tour with them as well! Alex and his team did an amazing job! He was very entertaining and had some really great jokes and engages with everyone on the boat! He took time to make sure all the guests were comfortable with their snorkel gear and assisted those who had questions. They were very accommodating to different needs and even provided prescription snorkel goggles! We saw many different types of fish and turtles at every stop! Overall a wonderful experience!

Porting in Aruba? This is an amazing excursion! - This was an excellent choice for our cruise stop in Aruba! My family and I took a taxi from the cruise port to De Palm Pier ($16 total one way) and boarded the catamaran from there. The process could not have been any easier. The captain and crew were amazing! They welcomed us on board, explained everything, and provided lots of laughter. The ride on the catamaran was surreal... it's almost hard to believe there is a place as beautiful as Aruba and to experience it on a boat with wind in your hair is breathtaking. Everyone enjoyed snorkeling in 2 different locations as well as the ride from the pier and returning to the pier. The whole experience was about 3 hours. Snorkeling gear is provided, however, we brought our own (which they had no problem with). There was also an extensive open bar, sandwiches, and fresh fruit. My family thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience, and we HIGHLY recommend it!

Enjoyable afternoon - We had a great time! The captain and crew were friendly and enjoyable. The boat was clean and obviously well kept. They served us lunch and had an open bar and we were able to snorkel in 2 different areas. We saw lots of amazing fish and a shipwreck. The trip was safe and said fun!!

Over crowed - Just a heads up. The boat was filled to absolute capacity. We boarded almost last and could not find a seat for a while. The crew had to ask people several times to make room for others to sit. I received a children's life vest and when looking for another found there was none left. Drinks were good. Very crowded and if that's not your vibe look for less than 62 people! Snacks were a stick with fruit and pre-made turkey or lunch meat sandwich. The best part was the 2 snorkel sites.
