Good Time!

Excellent way to start our trip. Aloe factory was nice. Ostrich farm was fabulous and our guide made sure we arrived at feeding time which was very cool. Gold mine ruins were fun. Enjoyed seeing the lighthouse. Lovely time. Highly recommend!

Look Elsewhere.

Look Elsewhere Pick up instructions were not clear. Said to meet outside terminal main gate at 8:30 - we were at the location by 8:20; driver did not show - called at 8:55 and told they were waiting at ship - nowhere did the instructions say this. We finally met up with the driver and one other couple, Driver was mad and told us to get in - never introduced himself. He was not a tour guide . He talked alittle about his personal life, but gave very little information about the Island or insight on Aruba itself. Basically drove us around to the various stops and left us in our own. Would not recommend. Plenty of others around.

Great value tour

Great focused tour with a lot of bonus short stops and information. The ride was a little rough in some areas because the van rode like a jeep and the terrain in some areas was rough, but that's how it is riding in natural areas. We just didn't think about it in advance. Glad the tour was air condioned, it made a big difference. Really enjoyed the ostrich farm the most and just driving around Aruba seeing it from a local view. I didn't see another tour that included the ostrich farm. This is one of the main reasons I selected this tour. Overall it was worth the money and time and our guide was knowledgeable.

Our guide, Pancho, was an absolute delight! The tour was wonderful. We really got the feeling we saw Aruba… even the off the beaten path spots. Loved the ostrich farm and even the aloe factory was very interesting. Lots of stops for photos! Great day!

Amazing

Great excursion to do while I'm pregnant, couldn't do the fun adventurous stuff so this was just perfect. AC bus and guided tour seeing the island was amazing :)
