A morning well spent
Kim_D
, Sep 2021
Our walking tour was a rich introduction to the culture and history of Aruba. The tour was full of interesting stories, discussions of architecture, visits to historical sites and a taste of local treats. It was a morning well spent in this beautiful place. The highlight of our tour was the guide named Beach. He was a wonderful story teller. So thorough in his knowledge. He was thoughtful, charismatic and funny. So funny. We made a friend on this wonderful trip to Aruba.

I really enjoy the tour. Taxi pickup was ahead of time and loved it. The guide for us named Beach was so knowledgeable, very happy person and made the tour more than what I expected. Nice walking tour and learned so much about Aruba. This is a nice must do visiting here. Ask for Beach. He is great. Great customer service.

A great intro to Orangestad
Lorraine_P
, Dec 2020
I was the only person on the tour - so it ended up being a private walking tour with the local expert "Beach", who was friendly, engaging and very knowledgeable. Spent a lovely two hours viewing the major architectural and historic sites, learning about them and the history of the city, as well as stops to try pastechi and later pan bati. Well paced and very worthwhile!

Good tour

Great walking tour. “Beach” our guide was very friendly and informative. We had a chance to sample two Arubian type snacks which were good and learned a lot about the country and it’s architecture. They picked us up at our hotel which was a bonus. But you had to find your way back - that said the bus was only at 2 min walk away! Pleased with it overall! Thanks Beach!!
