Frequently Asked Questions About Our Jetski and Buggy Tours

At BlueFinn Charters, we notice that many guests have the same questions about our jetski and buggy tours. That’s completely understandable, you want to know how everything works, what to expect, and whether it’s suitable for your family. That’s why we’ve collected all essential information for you, from pricing and safety rules to age requirements, what to bring, and how the tours work. This helps prevent misunderstandings and ensures you start your adventure with confidence.

Pricing: Per Person or Per Vehicle?

One of the most common misunderstandings concerns pricing. Both the jetski and buggy tours are booked per vehicle, not per person. This means that when you select one jetski, you are reserving one jetski that can hold up to two people. If both riders want their own jetski, you will need to book two.

The same applies to buggies. The price is for one buggy, suitable for either two or four people depending on the model. Families often book multiple buggies so older children can ride along as well. It’s important to check in advance whether you are booking one vehicle to share or multiple vehicles for extra fun.

Age Limits and Rules for Children

Our tours are popular as family-friendly activities on Curaçao, but certain age and safety rules apply. Jetski drivers must be at least 16 years old. Children can join as passengers from around six years old, as long as they can hold on properly and feel comfortable on the water. The guide will always make the final safety assessment on the spot.

For buggies, the rules are stricter: drivers must be at least 18 and hold a valid driver’s license. Children can safely ride along from around four years old, as this is the age at which they fit properly into the seat belts. As long as these requirements are met, buggy tours are a great outing for families with young kids.

Safety: What We Expect From You

Safety is essential, especially with powerful vehicles and adventurous terrain. For jetskis, this means always following the guide’s instructions, keeping a safe distance from others, and avoiding risky maneuvers. Alcohol or other substances are not allowed before or during the tour.

The same principles apply to buggy tours. You must wear your seatbelt at all times, follow the guide, and stay on designated paths. Curaçao has beautiful natural and off-road areas, and we ask everyone to treat them with respect. The routes can be dusty and adventurous, which is exactly what makes them fun, as long as everyone follows the rules.

What Should You Bring on Tour?

What you need depends on the tour. For jetskis, swimwear is a must, and reef-friendly sunscreen is strongly recommended. A towel and waterproof phone pouch are always useful. Because you’ll be going fast, make sure your sunglasses are secure.

For buggy tours, it’s all about comfort and protection from sun and dust. We provide you with goggles and a bandana. A selection of non-alcoholic drinks is included. Keep in mind that you will definitely get dirty, that’s part of the fun, so wear clothes that can handle it.

How Does a Jetski or Buggy Tour Work?

Both tours begin with a clear briefing explaining how the vehicle works and which rules apply. We also sign waivers and check your driver’s license.

Jetski tours start with instructions on land before heading out onto the water. The guide leads the group along scenic coastal areas. The tour lasts about one hour, depending on conditions.

The buggy tour is longer, around 2.5 to 3 hours, and more intense. After being assigned a buggy and receiving instructions, we head out in a convoy through rugged nature. Along the way, we stop at scenic viewpoints and explore a different side of the island. It’s the perfect blend of sightseeing and off-road adventure for both adults and kids.

Why These Tours Are Ideal for Families

Many families combine our tours with a beach day to add some excitement to their schedule. Jetski and buggy tours are short, active and thrilling, perfect for kids and teenagers. Parents appreciate that the tours are well-guided, clearly structured, and completely focused on safety. It’s what makes these adventures ideal family activities on Curaçao.
