We enjoyed the tour. It was a good value. We learned a lot about Aruba as the tour guide was very informative. The aloe factory was very interesting as well as the cave drawings. Baby beach was beautiful.

The tour was perfect! Our guide Mark was very knowledgable and made us feel right at home. It was a lot of driving but we toured the whole island! Well worth the price! The next time I book an excursion it will be through this site. Initial conflicts in scheduling were resolved within 15 minutes of booking. I was quite impressed. We travel to Aruba yearly; this company will definitely get my business again!

This was an informative drive around the island. The driver was very helpful and added a good commentary without overdoing it. He answered all the questions we had about life on and around the island. I would certainly recommend doing it if you are looking for and interesting few hours to expand your local knowledge. It was good value.

Very friendly and informative guide. The tour was well worth the money, but it wasn't as exciting as I anticipated. We didn't stop as much as I would have liked to, but when we did stop it was worth the trip. We saw cave drawings, which were very exciting! Overall fun experience, but there isn't a lot to see in Aruba in terms of tours. Water sports are much better in Aruba! But overall the trip is worth doing if you want a relaxed tour.

The tour guide was very good. But the trip itself was just OK. The van had a broken air conditioner. The tour guide had told the company about the air conditioner and nothing was done. The engine of the van stopped a couple times. I didn't think we would get back to the hotel. The trip itself wasn't worth the money I paid. There wasn't much to see. My suggestion is rent a jeep and tour yourself.
