Top Aruba Cruises & Sailing - page 10

Aigil (sp?) and Alex gave us an excellent tour. Kind, friendly, attentive and approachable guides. They kept the group's energy up and the good vibes flowing. They kept the cold water coming so everyone stayed hydrated. This was one of the most fun excursions I have done in my life. Everyone in our group really enjoyed it. (11-43 age span) While my husband would say it's never fast enough, I thought we were keeping up more than enough speed considering the terrain. Honestly, I would have preferred to go a touch slower because I was afraid we would break the vehicle but these things are tough and can take a beating. This is a fast, bumpy and dusty ride with stunning views. They gave information about the island and the sites at each stop. I was very impressed with how proactive the guides were. I had a concern about my vehicle and reported it when we got to the first stop and they immediately swapped it out for me. They had someone capable of fixing the machines along with the group to handle any problems. I like that they provided face coverings a lot. You will taste the dust through it, but that's all just part of the experience! Don't wear anything you plan to wear again on your trip unless you have access to laundry because the dust is no joke. Our last stop at the beach was awesome. The water was refreshing and the waves were a blast. The animals are the sanctuary at the start of the tour were a great bonus too. Horse, donkeys, goats, peacocks, pigs, parrots, monkeys, tortoises, snakes. You get to feed the 4 legged ones a cup of carrots as you walk around exploring the sanctuary. Pro tip: pack some snacks because the only stop where food is available has a long line and your food may not be ready by the time you need to go! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a wild ride. I would not recommend this to anyone who isn't comfortable being bumped around for a long time (back or other orthopedic problems for example). If that's not your jam, this is not for you!
