Cruise Passengers · Aruba
Most cruise ships spend a single day in Oranjestad. A shared boat tour puts you on a fixed schedule with dozens of strangers. With Eden Luca Yachts the entire yacht and crew are reserved for your group only, so the day runs at your pace.
The 3-hour private charter is the most popular choice for cruise guests: it fits comfortably inside a typical port day, leaves room for lunch or shopping in town, and still includes swimming, snorkeling, drinks and light bites on board.
Charters depart from Bucuti Yacht Club, Bucutiweg 32, Oranjestad, approximately 20 minutes by taxi from the cruise terminal area. Tell us your ship's departure time when you book and we plan the day around it.

Included
Plan for the charter length plus roughly 20 minutes of taxi time in each direction, and keep a comfortable buffer before your ship's all-aboard time. For most cruise itineraries a 3-hour charter is the safest fit; if your ship stays in port late, the 4-hour charter adds more time at anchor for swimming and snorkeling.
Nothing is fixed. Your captain chooses the route on the day based on wind, sea conditions and what you feel like doing: cruising along the coastline, anchoring in calm water to swim and snorkel, or simply relaxing on deck with music and a drink in hand. Tell the crew what matters most to you and they will build the day around it.
Pricing is for the whole yacht, not per person. The 3-hour charter is $2,199 and includes up to 6 guests, with $99 per additional guest up to a maximum of 12. For a group of 8 that works out at $2,397, around $300 per person for a fully private yacht with captain, first mate, drinks and light bites included.
A 25% deposit through PayPal confirms your booking, where you can also pay by Visa, Mastercard or American Express as a guest. The remaining balance is due before boarding. If we ever have to cancel for weather or safety reasons, you receive a full refund or a new date.
