It was a very nice and informative trip. Lardi was a “font of knowledge” ! Louie was a great chauffeur! We saw a good amount of Aruba with a lot of conversation and excellent Q&A. Unfortunately, a couple from the other ship had to come back early, so they wouldn’t miss their embarkation. That shortened our trip by around 1 1/2hrs. We didn’t get our opportunity to snorkel at Baby beach, but at least the couple didn’t miss their ship! It was a very nice trip and would do it again.

Itinerary
Historically aloe has been very important to the local economy. Now a days we have a state of the art factory that exports various products worldwide. Get a tour of the museum and factory. You will gain insight of the Aruba aloe production process along with the 160 years of history on the cultivation of aloe in Aruba. Afterwards you will have the opportunity to shop in the Aruba Aloe store. Our favorite product is the hand sanitizer. It smells amazing compared to other products on the market and protects your skin at the same time.
The Casibari rock formation is located toward the center of the island just north of the haystack hill named Hooiberg. You can climb on top the rock formation composed of quartz- diorite and enjoy the view of about 30 precent of the island. Perfect spot for some amazing photos.
The California lighthouse is located at the northwest tip of Aruba. Enjoy the amazing view that this site has to offer when you climb up the stairs of this lighthouse. There is an admission fee that's not included in the tour.
The Ayo rock formations are monolithic rock boulders that offer a quite impressive sight.
The natural bridge was the number one stop of Aruba up until the bridge collapsed on September 2nd 2005. Nonetheless, the site has an amazing view over the Andicuri bay which is a popular body boarding spot. The good news is that there is a little natural bridge in formation that you will be able to enjoy. It is located right next to the original site where now lay the ruins of the old natural bridge.
A very short distance from the Bushiribana ruins lays a hidden secret that has recently been discovered. We are talking about a cave pool, we will show you it.
The famous baby beach is located in the south east part of Aruba, with spectacular ocean views and shallow crystal clear waters. Here you will be able to swim and snorkel. It is perfect for kids.
This secluded beach is a perfect sunning and snorkeling spot in Aruba with calm, shallow waters rich in sea life supported by an intriguing network of mangroves

Lardy was great. Very informative and fun. Awesome tour of the island and points of interest.
The sites were varied and interesting but the driver got into a fender bender because he was not watching and delayed our trip to the last stop. The operator was a half hour late upon arrival and had no explanation or apology and no one from the company told us that they were running late. The stop at the ruins was not easy to navigate and we spent too long at mediocre gift shops. There was no stop for food for a seven hour trip
This was a fun and interesting tour of the Island. Lardy and Luis made the day fun. They answered our questions engaged everyone in conversation and definitely made the day fly by. Well worth the time.
Great variety of places to visit and see the whole island. Our guide, Lardi, was excellent at giving us both history and current culture information, and our driver, Jimmy, was super great as well. You would be fortunate to get this pair for your tour. It included some amazing views, the aloe factory was interesting and then to end at the beautiful Baby Beach was exceptional. It is not as crowded and tourist-y as Eagle Beach, but just as beautiful and worth the drive. It was also kind of them to provide cold water for us! Having a smaller group of people (six) was wonderful and the van was well air conditioned and comfortable. Highly recommend!
Great way to see the island without having to drive
Our day trip around Aruba was extremely informative. Lardy our tour guide and Clarence the driver were both amazing. Lardy was very knowledgeable and a joy to be around. The tour was not rushed and he took pictures of all of us at the various stops. Best tour todate.
The tour was great. The problem was the school bus. It was a very uncomfortable ride. I enjoyed the tour guide but can’t recommend bc of the school bus.
We were not prepared to ride in an old school bus! It was not comfortable at all! Viator is usually very nice coach type busses. Big stereo speaker in the front was dirty and falling apart. C-jam was very nice but it was like a cheap island tour. I would never pay $170 for this transportation. Tour was OK!
I would recommend the full day tour because you get to see more of the island. Larde and Louis were my host for the day, they were blown away when I told them I was celebrating my 61st birthday, this was my first time in Aruba and I learned a lot about Aruba on this tour. Larde is very knowledgeable about everything Aruba, I had a bunch of questions and he had a bunch of answers. I will recommend this tour to anyone I know that plan on coming to Aruba.
All around great trip. My favorite parts were the aloe factory and the snorkeling at baby beach. Couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide, Lardy!!
Very friendly and informative guide. Helpful with our family and accommodating to our kids, ranging from 3 to 13.
This is a fabulous way to see the entire island and see how diverse it is! We also learned a bunch about Aruba's history and its culture. SueJean was energetic and clearly spoke to our group sharing facts and making it fun. Along all of our stops, she gladly offered to take group photos which ensured we were all captured in the memories!
Sujean was the best. The other couple paired with us were unable to make it so Sujean gave us a private tour of the island. Lots of great information, knowledge and a positive attitude fit for a resident of Aruba.
Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and very personable He told us a lot of information about each place we went to as well as the history and culture of the island.
Sujean was very knowledgeable and spent time answering every question. She had a great energy and loves to tell people about her country.
This was such a great day. Our guide was SuJean, and she knew everything about the island. She was so friendly and informative and had answers to all our questions. We enjoyed the tour and she made it especially wonderful.
Sujene was so knowledgeable and patient with us! She answered all of our questions and kept us engaged. We are definitely doing this again with our boys!!! Thank you for an excellent experience!
We were on a school bus, not like a tour bus they have advertised. They took us around the island but they were going back and forth to destinations. It was pretty boring and repetitive. We did not have a lot of beach time and the restaurant they took us to next to Baby Beach was expensive tourist trap and the food was meh. We even dropped off the tour guide to their main office before the tour ended. I booked this tour based on the stars and reviews. I wasnt impressed.
We had a small group. Our van was the black little van well AC conditioner. We were not rushed. The guy explained all LARDY and LUIS. We had a wonderful afternoon. The time flew! They are well educated. Know a ton about Aruba. Highly recommend. Provided water! Good for kids and those who can’t walk fast and need assistance.
Our tour was awesome! 10+ our Tour guides were very friendly and polite.. 100% recommended 👌
Very informative tour of the island and they interact with those on the tour very well! They encourage questions and seem to genuinely enjoy what they do :)
Excellent tour! We had Rajean as our tour guide, and she was incredibly knowledgeable. She even led our tour at the aloe factory and helped us pick out products. We had plenty of time at each stop, making it the perfect way to kick off our vacation in Aruba. Since the tour covers the whole island, it gives you a great lay of the land for your stay, along with fascinating history and helpful information. There were only six of us on the tour, and we traveled in a very comfortable van. Highly recommend!
Highly recommend. Can’t leave the island without doing this. Absolutely had a great time. The tour guide was amazing and kind.
The experience was fun and interactive. The tour guide, Sujean was friendly and well-informed about Aruba’s history. The mode of transportation, a minivan was cozy, yet comfortable for 7 ppl. She took us to a local seafood restaurant, as requested by the majority of the group, for a late lunch. The wait was long, about an hour, but the food was fantastic and we ate on the water pier.
My family and I absolutely loved this tour our guide was very kind and full of knowledge. Our car was comfortable, with AC. I believe her name was suji. I highly recommend this for 1st timers. We learned alot of history and saw so much. Don’t look further book her!
We had Clarence and Larry, these guys were Great! They knew Aruba extremely well and were a ton of fun to be around. Some on the tour only took a half trip be we did the full trip, and I’m glad we did, really seen different sides of Aruba. Baby Beach though is kind of small and the biggest view is a shut down oil refinery, But, would do again.
We did the 7 hour full day Island tour. We had Larby and Clarence as our tour operators and they were fantastic, fun and friendly. We learned so much about the island. We had incredible stops. Larby was always engaging with us and at every stop he was offering to take photos of all the groups. He answered many questions along the way and was very knowledgeable. They made this mother daughter day special.
Excellent tour. we did the full island tour with Baby Beach. We were fortunate to be in a small van with only two couples. The driver was Clarence and did a great job of driving and explaining some things. The tour guide was Lardy and he was extremely knowledgeable and gave us much information about the island. He was also very willing to take pictures of us at the different stops on the tour. I would recommend this tour for anyone wanting to do an island tour.
Suji was an excellent guide. She explained in detail the history of Aruba & how it transformed to a tourist attraction. This is a small group tour & it felt like a personal tour. She drove us to various attractions, explaining the facts along the way. Each stop has sufficient time to look around and take scenic pictures. We ended the trip at Baby beach.
If I could give this tour more than 5 stars I would... this was a great tour and the host Sugean was absolutely amazing! She even made accommodations for us to get back in time for dinner reservations. Very educational, I feel very connected to the island and the people. She was so friendly, patient and fun to tour with. She spoke in English and Spanish so that everyone was always knowledgeable of everything around the island. I highly recommend this tour. Baby beach was a highlight of the tour, breathtaking. I am not a swimming but that beach was by far the best beach I felt safe and was able to go far out in the water. The sand was so smooth and the water was probably the best I have seen on the island. I now feel like apart of their family now and it feels like home away from home.
Clarence and Lardy were the absolute best.. best tour guides ever..Clarence was our designated driver and I must say he drove with grace while Lardy was all about his history and more so my personal photographer.. Highly recommend
This was a great tour!! Very informative. My guides were very professional and courteous. I would book again.
This tour was one of the best parts of our trip. Lardy & Clarence were knowledgeable and very thorough whilst describing and explaining the island of Aruba. We took fantastic photos at all the stops. Enjoyed our time at each one and learned things we did not know. Aloe Aruba was a hidden gem and our guide there was professional and informative. We had a blast at Baby Beach and even had a nice trip back to our B&B. Thank you for making our trip here in Aruba. 10/10 will definitely recommend.
Our hosts Clarance and Larvi were fantastic. Larvi was knowledgeable and excited about showing us the island. There were places thatvwe would not have seen without the tour.
First trip to Aruba and wanted a way to see a lot of the island. This covered some of the spots we wanted to see without renting a car. Great tour made better by our guide Lardy and driver Clarence. They gave us a Aruba history lesson in the time we spent with them. Highly recommend and worth the price.
We had a great time! Lardy and Clarence were super friendly and knowledgeable. We took plenty of pictures and had some very fun conversations! Would definitely do it again.
We had a wonderful experience with Lardy and Clarence. It was very informative and enjoyable! They were very welcoming and open to all questions.
My husband and I received the full island tour, we were never rushed at any location, and all questions were answered. it was a very enjoyable experience, Thanks to our wonderful tour guide!
We had such a wonderful day....got to see all of Aruba & learned so much about this small island. Our guide, Suejean was awesome!! So kindhearted, personable, & full of knowledge of the island. She made our day such a positive experience from start to finish. Thanks so much Suejean🥰
Clarence and Lardy were our tour guides for our full day Aruba tour! Both of them were very friendly and provided snacks and water throughout the day. Lardy was very informative with all the interesting facts about Aruba! We learned so much about the island! Would highly recommend this tour for anyone that wants to see the island in one guided trip with great tour guides!
Lardy and Clarence did a great job getting us around the island safely…very knowledgeable tour guides, air conditioned bus, and they had snacks and water for us. Definitely would book again if/when we come back to Aruba.
Be prepared for a school bus experience. Not horrible; however a/c could have been better. Not sure anything can be done since it is, after all, Aruba and it’s hot! Tour guide and driver were excelkebt. Wealth of knowledge from Landy.
Clarence and Lardy were awesome. The tour was informative and great. They definitely answered our questions. Will recommend to anyone.
Easy to book and updated with instructions. Slightly late start but we were informed. Sue was our guide and driver for the day. It was a very comfortable mini bus seating 6 of us. Sue is very knowledgeable and passionate about her island. We had lots of facts given to us. We started at the north and ended at the south Slightly longer for us to the north with less time at baby beach at the south. Didn't go on the beach but it was lovely. We went to the small reef at the side to do a bit of snorkeling. We were returned to our pick up point in good time. Enjoyed the day
Tour Guide Lardy very knowledgeable and explained everything in simple way. The bus operator Sujean also very professional and careful, taking to different locations of tour.
Our guide was Sugena. We learned a lot about the island, in addtion to seeing the sights, the rough north coast, fabulous rock formations, the city center, we learned all kinds of details about the life of the residents, education ion, medicine , food, wildlife and more. Excellent tour!
An absolutely fantastic way to see the whole island and to understand how incredibly diverse Aruba is for being so small. If you can get Sujean as your tour guide, do it! She was amazing. Funny, personable, answered every question more than once and knew the island like the back of her hand as she was born and raised here. The original bus got into an accident the morning of my tour but they pivoted quickly and didn’t miss a beat. Highly recommend!
We started our tour later than expected, but everything ended up better than expected. The Aruba tour was very informative. We believe we saw all areas of the island, and learned a lot about Aruba. We arrived at Baby Beach where the water was calm and beautiful, however the chairs are very expensive especially for only a two hour stay. We did arrive back at the ship a couple of hours later than anticipated. We did not have all aboard until 10:30pm, and we did not have any additional tours, so it worked out for us.
I liked that it was a small sized tour. Baby beach was nice and the water was crystal clear. We got a good all-around taste of Aruba and got to see the island. They say water is provided but we were offered one very small bottle, so bring water. Overall, we enjoyed the tour.
