MEET THE CAPTAIN
Bon dia! My name is Celestico (you can call me Tico). I was born in Curacao and I’ve lived in Aruba for 25 years. The tour industry is my passion and livelihood and my goal is to provide you with personalized, exceptional service.
I’ve worked for various water sports and ATV/UTV tour companies on the island for over 20+ years and I am extremely knowledgeable about the boating industry, snorkeling, and the island in general. I am also a certified diver. I’m blessed to be able to provide this service for you in my beautiful island of Aruba and I work extremely hard to grow and improve the business.
Because Isabella is a local, small aruba catamaran business, you will always deal directly with me throughout your tour experience. This enables me to provide the focused and exceptional service that my guests deserve. I answer all inquiries, book your reservation, and maintain and captain the boat.
So, come along on an adventure with me and learn about my island, experience the beautiful sea life, unwind, relax, enjoy the warm sun and salty air, and make wonderful new memories on our Aruba catamaran
At your service, your friend and captain – Tico

Steve C2023-01-23Tico time in Aruba We absolutely love Aruba and Tico is one of the reasons why. Great guy and always a fun time. Diving on the wreck and swimming with turtles was pretty cool ?. Thanks my friend ?Verified
The Grand Poohba2023-01-22Excellent Personalized Tour A great personalized tour. We were "guaranteed" turtles and they delivered. Even snorkeled with them. And 3 year old grandson even swam in the ocean.Verified
tinyronron2022-07-23Go with the best- private tour! Tico and his first mate are very friendly, caring and fun. They share many interesting facts about the island, snorkeling areas and ship wreck dives. The first mate even goes into the water with everyone to ensure everyone’s safety and to point out turtles, coral and fishVerified
Heather L2022-07-19Unbelievable Experience We went on a private snorkeling tour with Captain Tito and Alex on July 11 and it was nothing short of amazing. We were a group of 10, with 8 children ages ranging from 2-20. Tito really catered to our needs and created experiences with snorkeling and fun everyone would enjoy. We saw sea turtles, tons of colorful fish, and a sunken ship wreck. My son is still talking about that! Before returning to shore, we stopped at a shallow area where everyone swam and splashed and played! Alex and Tito got in the water and had fun with us as well! Definitely book this private excursion and you will not regret it! A++++!Verified
LaurieHahesy2022-03-02Sun, snorkel & dance! We enjoyed a 3-hr snorkel & sunset with Captain Tito & Giovanna. The private tour was so relaxing and truly tailored to our needs. We had a party of 8 with 2 children under 10 & 2 adults over 70. Captain Tito was sweet and encouraging to those timid in the water. I personally loved the dance party on board! Watching the sunset on the water was icing on the cake! Highly recommended!VerifiedChristine M2021-08-02A great day of snorkeling Enjoyed a 3-hr snorkeling cruise with Tico and Giovanna. Tico explained what our options were and we were able to choose our locations and how long we wanted to spend at each one. When one of us in our party was hesitant to snorkel, they encouraged me? to take the plunge and I ended up having a great time. Highly recommend Isabella if you have folks who aren't seasoned snorkelers. The cruise back to our starting point was pretty awesome also. Thank you for a great day!Verified
Nicole M2021-07-11One of the best excursions ever One of our families all time favorite excursions! Although we had a cloudy day and it was a bit chilly, the snorkeling was amazing! We saw so many fish and sea turtles! And the ship wreck was so cool. Captain Tico and his first mate Giovanna made our time on the Isabella Catamaran so much fun! They also played great music and were very funny and informative. There was also great communication prior to the excursion, Tico responded very fast to all of our questions via email! To end the excursion we saw an amazing sunset, even tho there were clouds. It was so exciting considering we thought we would get nothing! Highly recommend Isabella Catamaran Tours, it was so nice to have a private boat, where we weren’t crowded and could take our time. Awesome experience overall!Verified
Kaitlyn S2021-05-08Highlight of our trip! We had a wonderful time on Isabella, and it was the highlight of our trip! It was so nice to have the boat to ourselves so we could spend at much or as we liked at each spot. We would definitely do this again if we come back to Aruba!Verified
Berkley C2021-04-12Amazing experience!! Our group loved this so much we went on two cruises during our trip. One daytime snorkel trip of the shipwrecks. Unlike being on a boat with other people you could stay as long as you wanted at each stop and plan your own day. We also did a sunset cruise with snorkeling at sunset and then great music and dancing. With Covid it was so nice to have only our group. It was actually just as cost effective as going on a non private trip. You work directly with Captain Tico and his customer service went above and beyond. You will not be disappointed and will be supporting a local man running his own business. 5 stars. Can’t wait to do it again.
