Cruise Passengers: Your guide will welcome you with your first name or last name on a sign in front of the cruise ship exit/enter gate where your ship is docked. As you walk away from your ship, you will be approaching a security checkpoint gate. When you exit the gate, walk straight forward, and look straight ahead. Your guide will be there 15 minutes before the start of your tour to collect you. Please Note: If your tour starts at 08:30, your guide will pick you up 15 minutes (08:15) before the start time of your tour. Non-Cruise Passengers: For the meeting, please meet your guide at the reception, and if you are staying at an apartment; your driver will be at the address you provided on the booking. Your guide will arrive at your pick-up location 15 minutes before the start of your tour to pick you up. We will notify you if there are any changes.

At the start of the tour, we will tell you a little bit about the downtown area of Kralendijk. Downtown Kralendijk consists of a few streets and is easily walkable. Kaya Grandi is the Main Street, where you will find most shops, restaurants, and cafes. After the tour, we can drop you off in the centre if you want to do some shopping and walk around. If you're on a cruise, the ship port is less than a 5-minute walk from the central downtown district, and you can easily see and walk back to your ship before departure.

Harbour Village Marina is one of two marina facilities on the island where both local and visiting yachts can book moorings and stay on the island. It's also a safe-haven for surrounding boats during storms to seek shelter and calmer water.

Aux 1000 Marches, nous ferons une halte où vous pourrez descendre, vous promener et prendre des photos du magnifique paysage et de l'océan bleu limpide. Que vous descendiez les marches jusqu'à la mer ou que vous restiez au sommet, vous aurez toujours une belle vue sur la région et la côte.

Tolo Dive Site is one of the best dive sites on the island due to the large reef and schools of fish that inhabit this area of coral cliffs. From a distance, you will see interesting boulder patterns and your guide will point out lines on the cliffs that show you where the water level was thousands of years ago.

From the 17th century until 1863, Bonaire, like many islands in the Caribbean, relied on slave labour to work plantations and the salt pans. Throughout the island, you will see remnants of this time that serve as reminders of the hard work and hands that built the island's economy during this period. Here at Karpata, you will see a building where the women and the children would stay during the week.

Comme partout ailleurs, le pétrole et les ressources jouent un rôle essentiel dans la vie quotidienne à Bonaire. Mais contrairement à de nombreux sites, les îles ne disposent pas d'approvisionnement naturel local.

Goto (prononcé Go-To) Meer est une magnifique réserve protégée où vous pourrez souvent observer des flamants roses et des oiseaux indigènes dans leur habitat naturel. Vous pourrez également admirer le scintillement des dépôts de sel et la végétation dense de cette partie nord de l'île. Comme il s'agit d'une zone protégée, nous ne sortirons pas du véhicule, mais vous aurez l'occasion de prendre des photos et d'observer les flamants roses. Au loin, vous apercevrez Brandaris, le point culminant de Bonaire, situé dans le parc naturel de Washington.

Rincon fut la première ville officielle fondée au XVIe siècle. Vous y découvrirez certains des plus anciens bâtiments de l'île, une architecture locale typique, et comprendrez pourquoi cet endroit a été choisi il y a de nombreuses années pour accueillir la première colonie officielle lors de la découverte de Bonaire par les Espagnols.

You will visit a locally made liquor and spirits of Bonaire. Please remember the distillery is open from 10 am to 5 pm, from Monday to Saturday.

After Rincon, we will embark on the windy and breath-taking east coast of Bonaire, where you can feel the crashing waves and often see roaming wild donkeys. We'll also pass Bonaire's Land Sailing Adventure track, where you can see people zipping around in their sail karts. That is the last stop, and from here, we will drive you back to the ship. It is a great time to ask questions and chat with your tour guide.

Nous serons au sommet d'une colline d'où vous pourrez voir Bonaire depuis un point élevé au milieu de l'île.
