Description

This is a Unique Small-Group Tour guided by a knowledgeable, Local Bonaire resident who loves the Island with 17 points of interest. 

Why Shekhinah Tours is Different: Unlike other tours offered, this is not a big bus experience (with less of than 17 points of interest) with long wait times and impersonal guides. We want you to feel welcome to the Island the moment you step off the ship or plane and we’re excited to share with you our knowledge of the history, culture, economy, and food on Bonaire! 

You will be greeted personally and shown to your vehicle. 

There is a maximum of 7 guests per vehicle so you will have a personal interaction with your guide throughout. You will see all the major sites and highlights; you will experience local neighborhoods to sample snacks and drinks native to this region. 

Because of the small group nature of this tour, you will be able to ask questions and make custom requests if there’s something in particular, you want to see. Time allowing, we’ll do all we can to make this trip special for you and your group! 

At the end of the tour, you will get a local appreciation from us. 

Please click on the Itinerary tab at the top to see our 17 points of interest!
