Tesouros Escondidos da Costa Norte de Aruba UTV

★★★★★ This was an excellent UTV adventure and a fantastic way to experience Aruba beyond the resorts and beaches. Lionel was friendly, knowledgeable and especially good at managing guests with very different levels of driving experience. I was comfortable with this type of vehicle and wanted a more adventurous ride, while another group on the tour was clearly less experienced and more cautious. Lionel balanced both groups very well. He gave me opportunities to enjoy some more adventurous driving while still making sure the other guests felt safe and comfortable. We occasionally had to stop and wait for them to catch up, but he handled the situation professionally and kept the experience enjoyable for everyone. The itinerary included Alto Vista Chapel and the Peace Labyrinth, the Bushiribana Gold Mill Ruins, Black Stone Beach and the Three Sisters Natural Bridge, followed by a refreshing swim at Mangel Halto. The off-road ride was dusty, bumpy and exciting, with beautiful coastal scenery throughout. The main area for improvement is the organization at the beginning. The pickup location was not very clearly marked or explained, and the arrival process felt somewhat disorganized. More precise instructions in advance would make the experience start much more smoothly. The timing could also have been managed slightly better so we had a little more time at the beach at the end. It was a beautiful final stop, but the swimming time felt short. We were also asked numerous times to leave a five-star review—probably at least five times. The tour was excellent and genuinely deserved a strong rating, so the repeated reminders were not necessary. After a while, they made the situation feel slightly awkward. Asking once at the conclusion would have been perfectly reasonable. Travelers should also know that face and eye protection are essential. The operator sells an Aruba-branded face covering and goggles for approximately $25. It initially felt a little like an added tourist expense, but the equipment proved genuinely useful once we were on the dusty trails. Bringing your own protection in advance may save money, but goggles and a proper face covering should definitely be considered necessary. Overall, this was a memorable and highly enjoyable experience. Lionel did an excellent job, the scenery was beautiful and the tour delivered exactly the kind of adventure we were looking for. The five-star rating is deserved; it simply did not need to be requested quite so many times.

This was our second UTV tour with AGW! They were great the first time and the second was even better. The first time we did the morning tour with Roberto and Skyler. Our 2nd time was the afternoon tour and it was only Skyler. Both trips were amazing. They knows their Aruba history and enjoy educating the tourists. We enjoyed the tour and finished with a half hour dip at Mangel Halto. We will be returning every year. AGW also has a water park where locals and tourist can enjoy a day of fun in the sun. Water and snacks are provided with the UTV tour.

Our excursion to Baby Beach, Caves and the National Park with secret pool was absolutely amazing and a highlight of our cruise! Company was accommodating for our ship arriving later in port than the original start time of the tour and set aside a Jeep for our boat specifically so we could participate. Pickup in an air conditioned bus just outside the cruise port took us back to the office, and at the end of the day dropped off by the jeeps at the port. This is truly the best way to see so much of the island in a short cruise stop. We saw some of the town with beautiful murals. Quick stop at baby beach for a swim then off to the park. Ripping around the national park in open air Jeeps was amazing, there is so much to see! The caves and history behind them was very interesting. The absolute best part though was the swim in the Secret Pool. Truly a once in a lifetime experience. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed! Word of advice - the jeep is bumpy and therefore noisy. That is to be expected with the terrain. Bring a phone case with a strap you can put around your wrist for pictures while in the jeep. A waterproof one would be even better for pictures at the pool as even spectators get splashed quiet a bit! Snacks and water were provided. Shut your brain off and enjoy the beautiful island!

Really fun tour, absolutely worth the money! Skylar was an amazing guide and was so fun to talk to, very knowledgeable. Knew we loved the rougher terrain and made it that much more enjoyable. The cave was amazing, the natural pool was so refreshing, and baby beach was awesome. Bring a gator and sunglasses, the ride is windy but fun! Would definitely do again to see the rest of the island.

We did the Aruba Hidden Treasures UTV Morning Tour which was 4 hours . They pick you up from your hotel but you can also drive to their location. Make sure to bring protection for your eyes and face. The ride is very dusty. Ladies put your hair up. They have sunglasses, goggles, and gaitors for purchase if you forget We got a 2 seater UTV. MY husband enjoyed driving it. Ask for John B, the Real One. He made the off roading part of the tour epic. It was the best way to see Aruba. He also helped out taking pix of everyone. We saw went to: Casibari Rock Formations Bushiribana Gold Ruins Natural Bridge Alto Vista Chapel California Lighthouse Tres Trapi Beach (Snorkeling) - they have snorkeling gear for you It was an amazing experience and worth the money
