Amazing 6-hour adventure

6 Hrs – Boat trip & Snorkeling (AM)6 adults

An amazing 6 hour day with Alex and his wife Kelly. From the beginning Alex was incredibly responsive to our questions and helped us decide the best option for our family. Choosing the 6-hour snorkeling tour was absolutely the right decision. It allowed us to explore more of the island, including a less-traveled snorkeling spot on the southern side in addition to the popular northern locations. In addition to the extra stop, fantastic rum punch, snacks, water, soda, and snorkeling gear; the 6-hour selection added delicious chicken salad sandwiches and a graduation cake for our son (pic included)! Alex and Kelly were extremely friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable throughout the tour. There was never any rush to move on from each location, and they gave helpful tips and insights for each stop we made. After the charter we asked about purchasing some shirts with their logo. They didn’t have any available at that moment, but Alex offered to get a couple made and drop them off where we were staying the next day. They were ready as promised and when they dropped them off, we spent another enjoyable hour talking like old friends. We would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone traveling to Aruba, and we would 100% book with them again.

Response from Captain

    Absolutely amazing day on the water!

    4 Hrs – Boat trip & Snorkeling (PM) • 10 adults • 4 children

    We had an absolutely incredible experience on our private boat trip with Captain Alex and first mate Nicki. From start to finish, everything was seamless and so well organized. They were extremely responsive leading up to the trip, making the whole booking process easy and stress-free. Our group of 10 (including young kids) felt completely taken care of the entire time. Alex and Nicki were not only professional and knowledgeable, but also so warm and welcoming, they really made the day feel special. One of the highlights was snorkeling and getting to see turtles up close, which was truly unforgettable! The crew made sure everyone was comfortable and had a great time in the water. Thank you both for an amazing day and for accommodating our group so perfectly. We would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing, and memorable time on the water!

    Very Accommodating!

    6 Hrs – Boat trip & Snorkeling (PM) • 6 adults

    Alex and his crew were very communicative with any changes, expectations, drop-off/pick-up locations, and throughout the overall experience. We told them what we were looking for and they adjusted the trip to fit our group’s needs. They were extremely nice and the whole trip was fun and laid back, which was exactly what we were looking for - a private and personalized experience where we felt like we got to see Aruba differently than the masses of tourists. They knew the best fishing and snorkeling spots too so that even the non-fishers of our group got to have some great catches.

    Response from Captain

    Thank you very much for booking, your daughter did a wonderful job reeling that big African Pompano, hope to see you guys in the near future maybe you can send me an invite for the wedding 😉

    Keep It Reel Private Charters in Aruba!

    4 Hrs – Boat trip & Snorkeling (PM) • 6 adults • 3 children

    We had a fantastic experience with Keep It Reel Private Charters in Aruba! The boat was beautiful, the ride along the coastline was breathtaking, and the snorkeling adventure was one of the highlights of our trip. The crew went above and beyond when we realized we had forgotten our sandwich and snack bag. They arranged a beachside pizza pickup right from the boat, turning a potential problem into a fun and memorable experience. Friendly crew, excellent service, and an unforgettable day on the water. Highly recommend!

    Best choice on the site!

    4 Hrs – Boat trip & Snorkeling (PM) • 7 adults

    Before meeting him he was very fast responding as well as very friendly with communication! Once we finally met we felt so comfortable and welcomed! It was like we’re knew them already! Drinks and food was provided to us also full control over the music. When we got to our destinations we were not rushed and they were enjoying the water with us! I would definitely used them again as well as recommend them! Great host and very professional! We had such a good time!

    Private Boat Tour - Just Book!

    4 Hrs – Boat trip & Snorkeling (PM) • 2 adults

    I booked a 4 hour private boat tour for my wife and I on our 10 year wedding anniversary. Alex (The captain) and his wife took us out on an unusually windy afternoon but navigated through it like a pro, making a smooth and great experience. We went snorkeling, fishing, swimming with a sea turtle and on top of it all they surprised us with a local homemade anniversary cake. It was great day, a memorable experience, and I strongly recommend booking with Alex.

    Response from Captain

    Thank you Mr Patrick for booking, it was indeed a windy day more than usual but we had a great time thank you again for making us part of your vacation.
