Itinerary
This off-road safari by 8-passenger Land Rover lets you explore the natural landscapes of Aruba in an open-air 4WD vehicle. You’ll traverse the island’s rugged terrain in a guide-led caravan to your destination: the Natural Pool.
After hotel pickup, receive a safety briefing and board your 4x4 — perfect for exploring Aruba’s scenic countryside, much of it inaccessible to normal vehicles —and settle in behind the wheel or hop in the passenger seat.
En route to Arikok National Park, you’ll pass by the California Lighthouse at the northwest tip of Aruba, where you’re treated to views of the island's coral-strewn western coastline. Make a stop at the remnants of the Natural Bridge; formed by years of erosion from the sea, the coral rock bridge once stretched to 100 feet (30 meters) long before collapsing.
Replenish with provided water and snacks, and learn about the history and wildlife of Aruba before you reach the Natural Pool. Formed by volcanic rock, the tranquil pool sits on the coast and provides the perfect snorkeling opportunity.
Don your snorkeling gear and swim over the corals during your free time before returning to your starting point with drop-off at your hotel.

We took the tour with Uncle D, who was an excellent tour guide! The entire excursion was a blast and Uncle D was extremely professional. He did a great job of showing us around, explaining Aruban history and topography, and overall was very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this company and specifically Uncle D as your tour guide!

Very exciting day touring the island and seeing a few major sights including the Arikok Natural Park and pool, the California lighthouse, and the Natural Brisge. Due to construction at the lighthouse, our guide, Ritchie, also stopped by the Alta vista Chapel (sp). The off road experience was like a roller coaster ride!!! Bumpy is NOT the word so be prepared and hold on tight!! A good time was had by all. Thanks Ritchie for making it fun and most of all safe.

Mike and Oko from De Palm tours were excellent tour guides. They were informative yet brief. We were looking for a unique Aruba experience and getting to the natural pool was amazing.
Response from Host, Apr 2025

Glendy Mateo said "We'll pick you up at 7:45 AM from Barcelo Aruba. "We were in the lobby since 7:30 am waiting to be picked up for the 8 am tour. After waiting for an hour and asking hotel staff to call because they didn't show up I get an email from Glendy Mateo at 8:44 am that there was a delay due to the rain, totally understandable. What was not acceptable was having to wait an hour to get an update and chasing people down to get an answer. The DePalm manager in the hotel told us that they were at the Hyatt picking people up. I am not sure who lied, the manager or the tour guide because when they picked us up we then had to go to the Hyatt to pick people up. By the time everyone was picked up we were two hours late. Two bus loads all said that they were not notified of the delay. They of course claimed that everyone was notified. I said in an email back "How about addressing the fact that TWO full jeeps did not receive a notification of this delay? How about addressing the fact that we were lied to that the tour was at the Hyatt? We went to the Hyatt after we were picked up? How about addressing
the fact that we are on vacation and wasted two hours sitting in a lobby." They offered for us to reschedule to another time, we had other things planned. They had little regard for our time and that we wasted two hours of our day on vacation chasing down incompetency and unprofessional-ism. They took no ownership over the points I mentioned. They did not want to be held accountable for them dropping the ball.

Raphael was awesome. Very knowledgeable and personable. While the ride and sights were spectacular he really made it memorable.

Ziggy, Eduardo and Sergio were fantastic. We enjoyed the tour and the history of Aruba along the way. Well worth to book this adventure.

Rafael was fantastic!! Funny, informative, and a all around good guy. Would definitely recommend this tour to everyone @
rexceus, Feb 2024
Wow this tour was absolutely a highlight of our trip . The views were breathtaking. I loved our stop at the California lighthouse and the natural pool especially. Ziggy & Sergio Were very knowledgeable and friendly from the very start of the tour when we asked questions about the different stops through the tour they were able to answer right away and make recommendations about other ways to enjoy Aruba during our stay which was appreciated. Ziggy was very punctual and professional . The open air jeep actually enhances the experience of tour. If you plan to take this tour and I highly suggest that you do bring sunglasses and maybe leave the hats at home lol (they will blow off of your head during the tour!

Ovy and Jason did an incredible job narrating the trip, making us laugh the whole way. The experience itself was unforgettable. The scenic views, the bumpy ride, the natural pool, the natural bridge….all so EXTRAORDINARY!!!
Paige_P, Jun 2023
The off roading and all 3 stops were very different. From the lighthouse to the natural pool and bridge we were able to see the beauty of the island.
SHALANDA_A, May 2023
Excellent highly recommend , this was something’s they normal excursion. The tours guide was excellent, I enjoyed the tour very much
Brian_T, Apr 2023
Gio was an amazing tour guide!! Very funny and very professional! Highly recommended tour…very rough (but extremely scenic) ride in the national park. Access to the pool does require effort getting across the rocks. Loved it!!
Iris_G, Apr 2023
First and foremost, our driver was AMAZING! I can't say enough about him. Very informative, funny & friendly. This ride is bumpy so be sure to secure your belongings. The natural pool was gorgeous, BE SURE to take watershoes, NOT flip flops, you will need them to climb over the rocks to get into the pool. The pool itself has a slippery rock surrounding that you'll need to walk on to be able to jump in. Be sure to bring a waterproof camera as the pool is very wavy and your cell phone might get wet or dropped.
Lastly, bring some cash for the bathroom visit, it was only a dollar, but I had no cash. We meet the cutest newlyweds from a different resort so be prepared to make friends.

Mark_T, Dec 2022
The best part of the tour was rudolf and richie and their knowledge of the island and surroundings. They were exciting and I would recommend anyone going on the tour to ask for them specifically .
Brittany_A, Oct 2022
Father Bryan was our driver and Gio was the guide on the other bus. We had an amazing time and they did wonderful. We felt like we got plenty of time at each stop and they provided us with plenty of water throughout the trip. It was an amazing and beautiful experience that I never dreamed I would get the opportunity to have.
