Would have been better to be on the tour with other English speaking tourists. Although there was an interpreter, felt we lost out on much of what the tour operator was speaking in Spanish to the other guests. The sites we saw and the beach we went to were nice.
Nice tour with a good guide how showed us the highlights of Willemstad. The Caves are not that big but nice to see. Than we went to the flamingo park where we saw the flamingos from really close. After that we went to Kokomo Beach, what is a very nice beach with a lot of pelicans.
I was so looking forward to this experience and it was a total let down. 7 days prior to our cruise I get a notice that I needed to reach out to Aida and figure out the meeting time and place, why would this info not be included in the trip confirmation and edocs? I found an email and after 24 hours they finally replied saying a rep of Aida would be in port in a Brown shirt AND hat and will only wait 45 minutes after ships arrival. Well Rosie was NOT in a hat and did not arrive to the port until 45 minutes after docking. There was a huge crowd of people who like us, rushed off at 8am to not miss her and then just stood around waiting. The flamingos were ok, but there was not a HUGE flock like in pictures, they are in the distance, and originally we were told we couldnt get off the bus for pictures but then allowed 2 minutes. The Hato Caves were a joke. 50 rock steps up, in single file, to the entrance of the cave. There were 4 groups in the small confining walk ways at all times. It
I have always had a good experience with Viator, but this was a huge disappointment . Our guide was very unfriendly, was clearly having a bad day and took it out on us. She was just going through the motions and got aggravated when we couldn’t hear her,The caves were of average interest, I have seen much better ones in Bermuda or the US. The beach was very nice, but we could have just taken a cab there and saved a lot of money
They canceled my trip a few hours before the original start time. And now I had a day wasted because it was to late to book another tour. I am never booking with Aida Travel Services. So disappointed.
