Highlights
  • Kralendijk - In the heart of Kralendijk, we explore local neighborhoods, delving into daily life, history, and culture. Enjoy unobstructed views and endless photo opportunities.
  • 1000 Steps - Marvel at the stunning view of the clear blue Caribbean Sea. Capture the breathtaking scenery of the azure ocean. If the descent to the beach is too daunting, you can stay at the top and still relish the magnificent view.
  • Karpata (9) - From the 17th century until 1863, Bonaire, like many Caribbean islands, depended on slave labor for its plantations and salt pans.
  • Goto Lake - Goto (pronounced Go-To) Meer is a beautiful protected reserve where you can often spot flamingos and native birds in their natural environment. The tallest hill on the island, Brandaris, forms a picturesque backdrop.
  • Rincon - Established in the 16th century, Rincon was the first official town. Here, you can see some of the island’s oldest buildings, typical local architecture, and learn why this site was chosen as the first official settlement when the Spanish discovered Bonaire.
  • Seru Largu - Perched atop a hill, you can enjoy a panoramic view of Bonaire from a high vantage point in the island’s center.
  • Salt Pier - Amidst a scenic landscape on the Caribbean coast, we stop at the salt mountains and pink salt pans. Participants can soak in the surroundings, take photos, and receive salt crystals as souvenirs.
  • Pink Beach (53) - A natural haven without habitation, offering splendid views of the old salt pan, the plantation house, and the white slave houses.
  • Slave Huts at White Pan - Witness the Slave Huts and gain insight into the lives of the enslaved people who worked on the island.

A beautiful island with a lot of history. And attention to the conservation of nature - Beautiful island with beautiful views. We stayed in Sorobon, quiet part. Authentic place, highly recommended. Seen a lot and an extensive explanation by our guide Kirsten. We had a great time with her, she knew a lot about the rich history of the island. A very relaxed south/north tour.

Bonaire in a nutshell - Great individual tour with lovely Kristen. Kristen showed us the spotlights of Bonaire. We‘re offered cold water. We drove in a very comfortable SUV around the island. We would definitely go on a tour with Kristen again.

Don’t miss this tour it’s great! - Our tour was fabulous and our tour guide was amazing! I know it’s easy to just write a 5/5 review but having a local with experience of the Netherlands was an added bonus. We got to see all the island highlights, we never felt rushed and were sad when it ended and hope to do another tour soon!

The Perfect private tour of Bonaire. - A fantastic day around Bonaire. This is "the tour" to take if you want to go off the beaten path, see both the north and south, a lot of hot snorkeling spots, the windsurfers beach, the Salt flats, small hamlets and more. Perfect for a couple in Bonaire off a cruise ship. And Kisten was so sweet and highly knowledgeable. It was great!! .

Book your island trip you will not be disappointed! - Our trip to Bonaire, not sure of what to anticipate. However, booking a private Island tour with Kirsten turned out to be a delightful decision! Kirsten’s expertise in the Island’s history allowed us to promptly immerse ourselves in its stunning scenery and attractions. Her comfortable car stopped at places that caught our interest for a closer look. I enthusiastically suggest scheduling a tour with Private Guided Tours Bonaire!!!

Fantastic North & South Island Tour - Amazing Snorkeling Excursion - We spent an amazing week in Bonaire. One of the greatest highlights of our trip was an island tour and snorkeling excursion we took with Kirsten. When we contacted Kristen, she was quick to respond. When she first picked us up at our resort, we knew we were in for a perfect day. We decided to take a combination tour of north and south Bonaire. What an unbelievable and fun-filled day. We started out visiting the north. From visiting the 1000 Step Beach, Rincon, and Seru Largu, were just a few stops in the north. We had a delicious lunch at Posada Para Mira. What a wonderful place to visit and enjoy local cuisine. We finished the day visiting the south. Wow, seeing the salt pier, pink beach, and slave huts will leave you speechless. It’s hard to even begin to explain the beauty of the island. The north and south are very different and unique. Kristen is extremely knowledgeable about the history of the island, which we would have missed if we toured the island on our own. We were able to customize our trip and plan with Kristen every step of the way what we wanted to do and see. The next afternoon, we were blessed to spend more time with Kirsten. Our next excursion took us snorkeling. She knows the perfect spots to snorkel depending on weather conditions. My husband is an avid snorkeler, and this was some of the best snorkeling he has experienced. Kristen makes you feel comfortable with her expertise and guidance. even if you're not an experienced snorkeler. She pointed out sea life we may have missed if we went on our own. The pictures she took of our snorkeling excursion are absolutely breathtaking. We are still talking about the amazing time we had with Kristen. We will definitely contact her again when we return to Bonaire. My husband and I highly recommend any of her excursions or tours to everyone visiting Bonaire. Kristen is truly dynamic, and we will always consider her a friend.

Fantastic North South Island Combi Tour! - We enjoyed a wonderful day (North and South Island Combo) with Kirsten. She was great answering our questions to reserve our tour and prompt meeting us at the prearranged location right next to the cruise ship. She is very knowledgeable, warm and kind. We highly recommend her company.

The private guided tour - The private tour north south has been a great experience for us in November 2023. Kirsten tells you the history and at the same time the present of the island. She is a very enthusiastic and pleasant supervisor. She shows you the most beautiful places. She has an eye for nature and sees where the island's animals are. We were really surprised and would do this tour again. Thank you Kirsten very much for this tour. For those who read this review: This is highly recommended. Kirsten is a win for Bonaire.
