Bar-hopping tour in Curacao

Return to Discussions

I know the cruise is still almost 1.5 years out, but we just got back from a Southern Caribbean cruise and joined a group from Cruise Critic who did an evening (7 - 9:30) bar-hopping tour on Curacao with Irie Tours (www.irietours.com). Cost was $25/pp and included beer and rum punch on the bus, and a bottle of green rum from the first bar we stopped at (Netto Bar in Otrobanda). Other bars in the tour include Zanzibar (beach bar - we didn't get to this one due to a big traffic jam in Willemstad), a whole complex of bars at Mambo beach, and 27 (in Punda). Our cruise also stays in Curacao late, so if we get enough people (minimum of 25) we could do something similar.

That sounds like fun! I'm looking forward to seeing what can be done at some ports. I've been to Half Moon Cay and Bonaire before. The other three will be new for me. John

Half Moon Cay was great since we got to be nude on the entire island. Amber Cove (Dominican Republic) also let us go nude in their pool complex. I floated the bar-hopping tour around when we talked to other passengers this year. Hopefully we can get the 25 needed to book the tour.

There's been some interest in the bar-hopping excursion on Cruise Critic. I'll see if we can get some real interest going there, here, and on the BN forums in September, when we return from our Greek Islands textile cruise.

OK, we are back from our textile cruise (with a little nude diversion at Elia Beach in Mykonos). I'd like to start getting a list of people who would like to do the nighttime party bus. I'm bumping up this post, plus one on Cruise Critic and the Bare Harbor boards. We had a great time when we did this a year ago on a textile cruise.

Between here, Cruise Critic and Bare Harbor I have a list of 24-26 in the very interested or higher, so I went ahead and contacted Irie Tours to see what they say.

For anyone interested in the bar-hopping tour idea, I heard back from Irie:

Thank you for contacting Irie Tours again!

We can do a bar hopping tour again with you.

The price for a 3-hour Bar Hopping Tour is $30 pp. and includes;
Beer, rum punch, soft drinks and bottled water during the tour
1 shot green rum at Netto Bar

First, we make stop at the oldest bar in town "Netto Bar, where you can try a shot of green rum.
After this stop, we drive to the East Side of the Island to Mambo Beach and Boulevard, where you can walk around and have a nice cocktail at one of the beach bars. After this we make our last stop in the Punda side of town in an area called Pietermaai, in this part of town there are different bars.

We can start with the tour around 6:30 pm.

The minimum for a Bar Hopping Tour is at least 25 pers. or more.

I asked about the maximum as well and didn't hear back on that. It does look like they raised their price by $5. And when they say 1 shot of green rum, what they really mean is they buy a bottle of green rum and the group finishes it.

Now that we have 26 who want to go, plus another 8 saying maybe, I went ahead and booked this. We can go up to 38 in one bus.

Now we are up to 41 who said yes, plus 12 more who may be interested. We have enough to fill their larger bus (38) and add a second! I recognize several people who have accounts on more than one of the sites I've been organizing on, but I think there are no duplicates.

We have filled our tour bus and have already talked to Irie Tours about adding a second bus. I think we are up to 43 now with another 5 or so on the fence about going.
