Wicked cool!

Janeen_H, Jul 2026

We had a great time! Would absolutely love to go again when I come back to Aruba. The guides were very friendly the glow adds a bit of fun to it all.

Not happy.

David_B, Jul 2026

We took a taxi to the meeting point.The guide did not show up. We arrive early and waited extra time but he did not come. After contacting him after a half hour, we were informed we could reschedule but we would get no refund. I explained we have no time to reschedule and wanted a refund. The supervisor texted and said that was not possible. We use viator often when on vacation and never had a problem until now.Please send a refund.

Great Experience!

Aida_V, May 2026

I had an amazing time! It was my first-ever night kayaking trip, and I was definitely nervous at the start. But our guide was so supportive and stayed with us throughout the experience. By the end, I felt confident and truly enjoyed it.

Horrible Experience

Sarah_A, May 2026

This excursion was probably one of the worse ones me and my friend, who travel together frequently, have been on. The tour guide barley spoke to us and seemed like he didn't want to be there. He didn't introduce himself, give us any clear instructions, didn't speak on the tour or control the tour at all. He literally forgot to offer us life vests, which another woman on the tour thankfully spoke up and reminded us. I'm not the best swimmer, and it was night out and windy so safety was important here. And then on top of this, I have neck issues and kayaking is usually a find activity for me if it's gentle. I have gone by myself and with others and a 2 seater kayak, which is what this tour was. It didn't say in the itinerary and he also never mentioned that we had to lean back in the kayak and lay down to pass under a boardwalk (2x). I was honestly so upset about this and worried that I flared up my spine so that took a lot of fun out of it. They never once mentioned this. This also isn't the norm for any kayak trip I have been on. Also we paid for 1.5 hours and it only took 37 mins. It felt like I had to rush to keep up because there were others who were stronger upper body and the tour guide did nothing to control the pace of the group. The only reason I know it was under 40 mins was because someone else complained afterwards that it was too quick for what we paid. I tried to reach out after to get a refund because the whole experience was ridiculous but no response. I'm not one to normally complain but will not be paying for a tour with this company again.

Thank you for your review. We would like to clarify several inaccuracies in your account of the tour. Life vests are available on every excursion and are visible at the launch site. The route taken during the LED kayak tour is the same route that has been safely completed by thousands of guests. Passing beneath the boardwalk is a normal and well-known feature of the experience, and water conditions can require guests to adjust their position while navigating that section. If you have pre-existing neck, back, spine, mobility, or other medical concerns that could affect your ability to participate in a kayaking activity, it is the guest’s responsibility to determine whether the excursion is appropriate for them prior to booking. These conditions were not disclosed to our staff before the tour. The pace of the group is determined by the overall conditions and participants on the tour. While our guides monitor guests throughout the excursion, kayaking is an active outdoor activity that requires a reasonable level of physical participation. Finally, tour durations may vary based on weather, water conditions, currents, and group dynamics. The advertised duration reflects the overall experience, including preparation, safety briefing, launching, and time on the water. It is not a guaranteed paddling time. While we respect your opinion, the experience described in your review does not accurately reflect the experience of the overwhelming majority of our guests. We remain committed to providing safe and enjoyable tours and wish you the best in your future travels.

While the LED Kayak...

Venkatesh_K, Dec 2025

While the LED Kayak experience sounds exciting, there are no great shakes about it. The Tour Operator, "Come and Enjoy Watersports" did not give us a good experience. We booked the 1 hr and 30 minutes tour for the 9 pm slot. I was contacted late in the evening requesting us to advance it to 8 pm and we accommodated the change. The tour operator offered to pick us up by 7.50 pm but we were picked up only by 8.15 pm. The Kayak tour started at 8.25 pm and ended at 8.50 pm. I messaged the tour operator to inform about this as our expectation was a total of 1 hour and 30 minutes. He responded with a lot of arguments and went to the extent of saying that he doesn't believe me, he was beating around the bush continuously with a lot of back and forth texts. He consistently failed to address my simple question of why just 25 to 30 minutes including the glow paint application and wearing the glow sticks (hardly took 2 minutes). His responses were totally uncourteous! He never seemed to listen to my simple issue at all. My question was very simple and straightforward. I honestly feel that he is intentionally digressing from it. My sincere request to Viator is not to tie up with these kind of unprofessional people. This can only hurt Viator's reputation!!

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that this experience did not meet your expectations, and we’d like to clarify a few important points for future travelers. The LED Night Kayak tour was conducted within its normal operational timeframe and followed the itinerary and inclusions outlined in the tour description. Night kayaking experiences differ significantly from daytime tours, and the duration includes preparation, safety instructions, setup, and time on the water, as described in the listing. After the tour was completed, we were contacted with a request for a partial refund based on dissatisfaction. In line with our stated policies and Viator’s guidelines, refunds are not provided after participation when the experience has been delivered as described. It’s also important to note that participation in glow paint and standard tour activities is optional. In this case, some activities typically included in the experience were declined, which does not alter the tour duration or eligibility for a refund. We’d also like to acknowledge that you joined us on another tour and shared positive feedback about that experience, which we truly appreciate. We always strive to deliver consistent, enjoyable experiences and take all feedback seriously. Thank you again for taking the time to review. We remain committed to providing safe, well-organized tours and transparent communication for all our guests.

A bit over priced

Maria_A, Oct 2025

Entertaining and ghost was amazing! A bit over priced but had a great time. A bigger group might have made it more engaging, but the tour guide made up for that.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Smaller groups can feel different, but we’re glad our tour guide helped make the experience engaging and memorable. Your kind words mean a lot to our team. We hope to welcome you back again for another fun adventure in Aruba!

Alex was a great guide....

Stacy_M, Sep 2025

Alex was a great guide. The water was calm and the view was beautiful. My husband doesn’t really like to be out in the water on a kayak but he enjoyed it and felt comfortable
