Our tour with Luc was... - Our tour with Luc was fantastic. From start to finish Luc wanted to make sure our party of 8 enjoyed the tour and learning about Bonaire. His bus is customized with all of the information we needed and enough snorkeling equipment for all of us. He had a great personality and really made our tour amazing. Thank you, Luc!

Worth Every Dollar - I came across this tour option purely by chance on TripAdvisor After emailing back and forth a few times we solidified the date / time we would be in port. Every single thing about this was VIP We decided how long we would be at each part of the tour, We saw a large portion of the island. We ate lunch at a restaurant off the beaten path that had some of the best food I have ever had on vacation. If you take a trip with this man, you have to go to the Dominican restaurant he took us to. Of course I forget the name. Pick up and drop off was where we wanted it, he was able to take us around and show us everything we needed to see. I would highly recommend it. If you are not doing this tour you are missing out. The best part is this was just our group of five. The van is large and can hold probably double that. Luc was punctual, knowledgeable, and friendly. This tour was 10/10

The only way to tour Bonaire - Our family enjoyed our tour with Luc. He is a local who loves his home and shares that love with his guest. His private tour was comfortable for my family of 9 with room to spare. He adjusted his cruise to fit the desires of the 3 generations on our tour. A true professional.

Book this excursion NOW!!! - One of the very BEST excursions our family has ever done!!!! In three short hours we learned tons about the culture of Bonaire past & present, saw flamingos up close, snorkeled in the beautiful Caribbean waters, visited slave huts, snapped pictures of wild donkeys, and witnessed the glory of the salt mines in action. Luc is a GEM! He is passionate about his homeland and the island of Bonaire and freely shares his incredibly vast knowledge of both! He is incredibly friendly, respectful, kind hearted, and truly a JOY to be around. He goes out of his way to make sure you make the most of your time on Bonaire!!!!

A must do excursion while in Bonaire - Our family of 8 including a 17 month old had an awesome time with Luc ! Our time in Bonaire was limited due to cruise ship departing early on our day on this beautiful Island. Luc was very accessible via email leading up to our time and started the trip by meeting us right at the cruise ship entrance into Bonaire We saw everything we had envisioned from the salt flats to the old plantation areas, the southern tip lighthouse and then had time for about an hour of swimming and snorkeling, all with excellent and timely stops for awesome family pics along the way! He recommended a great lunch spot post tour and dropped us back off in the middle of town with two hours to spare before cruise departure! Skip the ship company offered excursions and book this tour! We had an awesome day!

Best tour of Bonaire- don’t miss it! - This was by far the best tour of the ABC islands! Highly recommended. Luc was very knowledgeable, professional and flexible in our itinerary. Our group of 6 had a great time despite the brief rain shower. Luc was prepared with ponchos and the sun came out. Optional snorkelling was the highlight. Best of the islands. He extended our time at the beach. Liked the funky open air vehicle instead of a big bus. This tour is not to be missed!

We had a good time with... - We had a good time with Luc in his open air van. He showed us the southern point of Bonaire. He had great snorkel masks for us to use. He was knowledgeable about the island. It was a fun time for a few hours and a way to get away from the cruise crowds.

he received double payment from our group plus beach time was not what we thought we would have - it started out as a wonderful tour but then we asked to be taken to a beach because a few wanted to do some snorkling/beach things. he did stop at one beach for ONLY 20 MINUTES as he said he had to drop us off because he had another booking he promised them he would be there around 2 cutting our time off about 1/2 hour. plus i believe I paid up front for the tour but we all had to repay him $40 each (12 people) plus tips so if I did pay upfront when I booked he got paid twice.
