• 5Highly recommended tour of Bonaire!

  Daniel was our guide. He was on time and met us as indicated at the cruise port in his communications. The minivan was spacious for the 8 of us and had great AC and Daniel had a good microphone which allowed all of us in the back to hear perfectly. Saw all main highlights of Bonaire and Then he dropped us off on time at the port.

• 5Very good

  Renny was a nice and funny guy who showed us the sides of Bonaire we didn’t even know of. Besides of the views and beautiful things he showed us, he also learned us a lot about the history and culture.

• 5Fantastic experience on the Private North & South Tour

  I had a fantastic experience on the Private North & South Tour in Bonaire with Shekinah Tours, guided by Nicoline. In just 3 hours, we were able to explore so many beautiful and unique spots across the island without ever feeling rushed. Nicoline was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about Bonaire. She shared interesting local history, culture, and hidden gems that I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. The personalized nature of the tour made it feel relaxed and tailored to our interests, which I really appreciated. The north offered stunning rugged landscapes and dramatic coastlines, while the south impressed with its serene salt flats. We even saw flamingos, birds, donkeys, and goats along the way, which made the experience even more special. Definitely worth it. If you’re looking for a short but enriching way to see the highlights of Bonaire with a local touch, I highly recommend this tour. It was well-organized, insightful, and memorable from start to finish.

About Kralendijk

Kralendijk is the small capital of Bonaire, a Dutch Caribbean island, with pastel waterfront buildings and coral reef a few strokes from the shore.

Kralendijk lies on the sheltered western coast of Bonaire, a flat, dry island off the coast of Venezuela that belongs to the Netherlands. Pastel-coloured buildings line the waterfront, and Fort Oranje stands at the harbour. Just offshore lies the uninhabited islet of Klein Bonaire, and the reef around both is protected as a marine park, set up in 1979, which has made the island a centre of shore diving.

Top-ranked sights in Kralendijk: Bonaire National Marine Park, Klein Bonaire, Seru Largu Lookout.
