We had a great time on the ATV tour and loved seeing the different sites of Aruba. Our guides Naheem and Gabriel were awesome! They were knowledgeable, took lots of photos for each group in the tour, and were friendly to spend time with and learn more about life on the island.

Great trip and Our tour guide "Rasta" was absolutely fabulous. 10 out of 10 experience. He was hilarious and told us so much history about Aruba. Must do ATV experience. True off roading adventure.

Itinerary

Explore the natural beauty of the northern coast on a half-day Aruba ATV adventure, starting with hotel pickup and a safety briefing. All riders hop aboard Honda Ranchers 420cc's—then follow your guide in a caravan toward your ultimate destination.

A winding road leads to Alto Vista Chapel, built on the hilltop site of the island’s first Catholic church constructed in 1750. Snap photos of the shimmering Caribbean Sea from this beachside locale before continuing along the remote coastline.

Next up is Baby Natural Bridge, a 25-foot-long (8-meter) coral limestone formation sculpted by eons of wind. You also find hundreds of stone pyramids dotting a shoreline at a nearby wish garden where you can add your own devotional spire.

Continue on to the partial-stone wall ruins of Bushiribana, and learn about the abandoned mill that smelt three million pounds of gold during Aruba’s gold rush in the 19th century.

Refresh with bottled water and a leisurely swim amid tropical fish before re-boarding your ATV for the return trip, ending with drop-off at your hotel.

We were a party of 17 friends and family. Gabriel and Myron were our tour guides and to be honest, we couldn't have ask for anyone more fun and knowledgeable! They both were more than amazing with so much energy. They both absolutely made this tour what it was! The tour was fun, rugged with history of Aruba with the most spectacular views of the island! I would do this tour over and over! Thank you Gabriel and Myron!

A Fantastic Experience

Ayoka_B, Jun 2026

I took this tour on a solo trip to Aruba and I was not disappointed! I should’ve known it was going to be a good time from the time Naheem picked me up in that one-of-a-kind van. Gabriel was my tour guide and he picked up where Naheem left off with high energy, positive vibes. Gabriel was knowledgeable about the Island and took plenty of pictures of everyone. As a solo traveler, I never felt alone on this tour. Most importantly, we had FUN!!! 10/10…I would book this tour again.

Missed Adventure, No Accommodation Offered

Perquita, May 2026

I was very disappointed with my experience with Kini Kini Transfer & Tours for the Aruba North Coast ATV Desert Adventure. The company changed the tour and pickup time, but the communication regarding this change was not effective. As a result, I missed my transportation and was unable to participate in the excursion I had paid for. I understand and respect that cancellations and refunds must be requested at least 24 hours in advance. However, this situation was not due to a last-minute cancellation on my part—it resulted from poor communication regarding the schedule change. When I contacted the company to explain what had happened, I found them unwilling to work toward a reasonable solution. No refund was offered, and there was no effort to reschedule the excursion for another available time. A company that values customer service should be willing to help when a customer misses an activity due to communication issues on the company's side. Unfortunately, this experience left me feeling frustrated and disappointed. I would encourage future customers to confirm their pickup and tour times directly with the company before their excursion to avoid similar experiences.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you were unable to join your tour. After reviewing your reservation, we would like to clarify that your tour date and pickup time were never changed. The reservation remained exactly as originally booked. We also made multiple attempts to contact you prior to your tour, including phone calls and text messages, to provide and confirm your pickup details, but unfortunately we did not receive any response. Additionally, both the booking confirmation and the information provided at the time of booking state that if you have not yet received your pickup time, you should contact the supplier before your tour date. This helps ensure that all guests have the correct meeting information. We always do our best to assist our guests and avoid situations like this. Unfortunately, because the tour departed as scheduled and we were unable to reach you despite our attempts, we were unable to accommodate the missed tour. We appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best in your future travels.

Amazing ATV Adventure in Aruba!

Michael_F, May 2026

We had an amazing ATV tour experience in Aruba! Our tour guide was absolutely excellent — very knowledgeable about the island and shared tons of interesting information about the area throughout the tour. What we appreciated most was his conversation style. It never felt like a scripted speech; it felt natural, engaging, and fun. He made everyone feel comfortable and safe from the very beginning. We started on the road first, which was perfect for getting used to the ATVs before heading off-road. Once we hit the trails, it was an absolute blast! We were able to use the ATVs for the majority of the 4-hour tour, which made the experience even better. The views while riding were incredible, and our guide went above and beyond by answering all of our questions, taking pictures of our group, and even individual photos for each of us. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Aruba — definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Response from Host, May 2026

Kelly_D, Apr 2026

Gabriel was the best tour guide. He is so knowledgeable and passionate about Aruba. He took time to tell us about everywhere we stopped. He took pictures of us so we didn't need to just take selfie. My husband and I rented a quad & I'm really not a quad rider, I got nervous. Gabriel let me ride with him in his UTV. It was neat because I got my own little history lesson. The things we saw were amazing. I highly recommend this tour.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Highlight of our trip! A must do!

Fabian_H, Apr 2026

We had an awesome time on this tour! We were met by Nahym by our cruise ship and the energy was positive and hilarious. The safety briefing was easy and clear instructions on how to operate an ATV even if you’re a beginner. My wife and I learned so much about Aruba and its desert landscape whilst having a blast on the ATV. 10/10 tour and 10/10 service from Nahym. We can’t wait to return!

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled you had such an awesome time and that Nahym made the experience fun and welcoming from the start. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the ATV ride and learned more about Aruba. We appreciate the 10/10 feedback and look forward to seeing you again!
