The journey, in full
We start off our tour in the district of Otrobanda, where your IRIE guide will point out and explain all the highlights of this part of the city. Take pictures of the famous floating bridge, the colorful Handelskade and take a short scenic walk to photograph murals and street art in the recently revived area of Frederikstraat. Next, head to Fort Waakzaamheid, this fort dates back to 1803 and is perfectly situated with a great view on the entrance of our harbor and coastline of Curacao. Take scenic pictures, with Willemstad in the background! We continue to make our way to Landhuis Chobolobo, where the famous Genuine Curaçao Liqueur is made. On our way there, we will also pass the historic district of Scharloo, a former Jewish neighborhood, home to many historic buildings currently classified as monuments and the reason why Curacao is listed on Unesco’s World Heritage List. On arrival at Landhuis Chobolobo, take the self-guided tour, taste the delicious liqueurs and buy some souvenirs to take back home. Now it is time for lunch! Enjoy a delicious local meal at Plasa Bieu. Please note the cost of lunch is at your own expense and not included in the tour cost. After lunch, you will have some free time to go shopping at our Round Market in Punda. After this afternoon feast for your taste buds & some shopping time, our last stop is at Parke di Lucha de Libertad, a park dedicated to the fight for freedom from slavery, after which we will take you back to your hotel for a hard-earned siesta or beach afternoon.
