    Hello! Just wanted to jump on and say a big THANK YOU! My hubby and I just returned from a week in Curaçao (our first) and we watch all your Curacao videos before and even during the trip! The information and details you provided were OUTSTANDING and I think really played a big part in the success of our trip! We visited many of the beaches, restaurants and “spots” you highlighted in your Curaçao videos. So again thank you for the great content and we are looking forward to seeing and exploring your other world travel videos as we consider and plan our next adventure.

Enjoy exploring our other destinations on the channel. There are many more destinations to come if I could just edit faster. 😉

      Nice! Driving in Curacao is pretty easy so don’t worry even if you have to go alone. Just make sure you have international data so you can use Google maps or at least download maps for offline use.

    We were there on our honeymoon in 2016. We stayed in a good resort just 20 minuten from the airport. We had a rental car so we saw alot of the island. Friends of ours just build their house over there and if we want we can stay there so hopefully ill be back in Curaçao.

    It is not called Mardi Gras(French) . It is called Karnaval (Papiamentu). Love your review. The old market, for those who may not know, is called Marshe Bieuw or Plaza Bieu. This place is undiscovered and absolutely amazing. Karnaval is a great time to go, so is Seu (harvest, Easter Monday), Christmas and New Year. Get a mini surge protector because the current is not stable. The current is not the same as in the US.

    • @LucasWorldTravel
      @LucasWorldTravel  3 місяці тому

      Thanks for the surge protector tip. Also, we said Mardi Gras intentionally because we are talking to mostly American tourists who know when Mardi Gras is as it is also celebrated in the US.

    • @LucasWorldTravel
      @LucasWorldTravel  Місяць тому +1

      We stayed 28 days in Curacao and in Aruba. We're digital nomads though so we can do that. If you are looking to go for vacation, 5-7 days is a good amount of time to stay.

    Excellent video...thank you so much for providing it. We will be there the last week of Nov through the first week of Dec. I just found out that the house we are renting has AC in the rooms, but not through the main house. The whole back wall that overlooks the private pool and ocean opens up, as well large side doors on both sides of the living room. It shows temperatures to be in the high 80's to low 90's during the day there. Are we going to be miserable in the house? Is it breezy there to make it bearable?

    • @LucasWorldTravel
      @LucasWorldTravel  4 місяці тому

      Yes, that's very common in the Caribbean, and I think you will be fine. There is a breeze, so it's not unbearable. It will probably be warmer than you are used to, but still enjoyable.

    Thanks, great tips! I have a question for you, did you ever see anyone who worked in the business section of Willemstad? If so, what were they wearing----ever see a suit or other dress clothes? In Utila, business wear is a Hawaiian shirt, cargo shorts, and flip flops----but I'd rather have at least some business wear if I need it?

    • @LucasWorldTravel
      @LucasWorldTravel  4 місяці тому +1

      We didn't see a single suit while in Curacao. We weren't on the look out for business people though so we can't say with any certainity.

    The rainy season is the best time to visit the island... why is that, you crazy panlomito??? Because IF it rains it is only for 10-30 minutes and the sun will come back in no time. The other reason is that nature is at its best during the rainy season: lush green with flowers everywhere. The worst part of the year is in August/September when it is very hot and dry, so no green nature and you will not be able to walk around in Willemstad during the early afternoon. And on the beach/in the sea you will get burned lobster style while snorkeling.
