What Our Guests Say about our trips on Bonaire

Ein tolles Segelerlebnis bei viel Wind
Wir haben zu viert an einem sehr sehr windigen Tag (zeitweise 34 knots) eine tolle Segeltour auf der SOLOBON gemacht. Die erfahrenen Skipper Patrick und Linda haben diesen Vormittag für uns zu einem schönen Erlebnis gemacht. Obwohl ich Bananen mit an Bord gebracht habe 😉(bringen wohl Unglück nach einem alten Aberglaube untern Seglern - kannte ich aber nicht) hatten wir bei den heftigen Windverhältnissen eine gute und sichere Tour.
Und den Bananenimbiss 🍌 hätte ich gar nicht gebraucht, denn Linda servierte zwischendurch immer wieder leckere Snacks und Getränke. Bei Andrea 1 haben wir einen relativ ruhigen Schnorchel-Stop gefunden und Linda hat uns beim Schnorcheln begleitet und konnte uns viele Fische erklären.
Für uns war das ein perfekter Vormittag, an den wir gerne zurückdenken. Nochmals danke an euch 2 und wir werden eure Touren gerne weiter empfehlen.

Amazing sunset cruise
We sailed with Linda and Patrick at the very end of December and had an amazing experience. Linda was a knowledgeable and fun guide to snorkel with. We enjoyed talking with both of them on the trip. They are amazing guides who made us feel so welcome. Their sailboat is beautiful and they provided us with endless drinks and yummy snacks. The sunset was breathtaking.

Snorkel off a Sailboat ⛵️!
Highlight of our week in Bonaire! What a treat to spend the entire afternoon on this beautiful sailboat ⛵️ with two friendly & knowledgeable hosts and guides. Patrick and Linda were wonderful! From the sailing to the snorkeling to the food & drinks, the whole experience was top notch. We sailed over to Klein Bonaire where Linda guided us in the water to snorkel and see a stingray, an octopus, & tons of gorgeous reef life. We ended the day with a lovely sail back while watching the sun go down. Don't hesitate to book a trip with Solobon! Well worth it! 🤩

A beautiful experience!
Linda & Patrick are very nice & authentic hosts and the whole trip on this beautiful boat is just a wonderful experience.

We had an amazing sail with Solobon!
From the booking process through the sailing, Patrick was so easy to work with and a quick communicator. He and Linda took us on a snorkeling trip to remember! Linda snorkeled with us and showed us the perfect spots to see some of the BEST coral and fish variety we’ve ever seen! She also made a delicious lunch for us. The 4.5 hour tour was the perfect amount of time to see various snorkel spots and to enjoy some beautiful sailing at Bonaire! Patrick and Linda keep a clean, well-maintained boat, and are a fun and hospitable team!
We totally recommend!

5 Star Private Snorkeling
We loved our day snorkeling with Patrick and Linda.
They were exceptional hosts. The boat is gorgeous and their knowledge of the area and sea creatures perfect. It was just our small family of 3 and we booked them for two separate full day trips for sailing and snorkeling. Both trips were outstanding between the pick of snorkeling spots, the boat and the food and drink.
I would not hesitate to book with them again. They are an exceptional!

Patrick and Linda are the most knowledgeable and kind excursion hosts I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing.
The snorkel excursion was amazing and we were even able to see dolphins swimming with our boat at the very beginning of our trip. The snacks and drinks kept coming and all tasted amazing. Linda was very knowledgeable about the sea life and kept us updated during the whole snorkel about what we were seeing.
I would recommend this to anyone and everyone and will absolutely be booking with them again if we are back in Bonaire.

If you’re cruising into Bonaire, booking a day with Solobon Sailing is an absolute must!
We were a group of 12 visiting Bonaire on a cruise and spent 4.5 incredible hours on the water with Patrick and Linda. From the moment we stepped aboard, they were warm, welcoming, and extremely hospitable truly making us feel like honored guests rather than just passengers.
We snorkeled at two beautiful spots, each offering crystal clear water and amazing marine life. Everything was relaxed, well organized, and perfectly paced so our whole group could enjoy every minute.
The tasty bites provided were delicious, and the open bar was plentiful and kept everyone happy! Whether you wanted to soak up the sun on the bow or relax in the shade to escape the heat, the boat offered the perfect setup for both.
Fun was had by every single one of us agreed it was one of the highlights of our cruise. We would absolutely book with Solobon Sailing again and will definitely consider it our go-to excursion the next time we cruise to Bonaire.
Highly, highly recommend! 🌊⛵️

Een unieke en prachtige ervaring om samen met Patrick en Linda een mooie zeiltocht te hebben.
Goed verzorgd, met lekkere hapjes en drankjes.
Veel persoonlijke aandacht en uitleg over verschillende wetenswaardigheden en als hoogtepunt ook nog eens een werkelijk schitterende zonsondergang.

From start to finish first class experience.
Patrick and Linda provided a delicious meal and snorkel experiences we’ll always remember.
We were grateful to end our adventure with a green flash at sunset.
It was superb. 10/10 highly recommend.

We had the best time on our solo bon sailing trip.
We did the 4.5 hour special with 6 of our friends. Linda and Patrick were knowledgeable, friendly and had great service!
The sailing was fun, we stopped to snorkel twice, and we ate lots of snacks and drinks! Highly recommend.
