Aruba on Christmas Day

[jetstorm]

We'll be sailing to Aruba on the Crown Princess on Christmas Day and I'm worried nothing will be open. Do the tours usually still go out? The private ones or just the ones through the ships? Are many if any stores/restaurants open?

Hotels and casinos-- all open

Restaurants-- some open

Stores-- closed

Tour operators-- some operating

Cruise lines block contracted space with tours, so there will be offerings for the day you are in Aruba

 

All above info applies to Boxing day as well as Christmas day

Arubalisa,

 

Thanks for the Christmas Day and Boxing day schedule, it will come in handy when making excursion plans.

Most of the shoppings will be closed,restuarants,hotels casino will be open

for excursions outside the terminal you will find the A.T.O.A. island tour information booth they will be there to offer excursion they have a blue uniform says ATOA they are operators authorize to work on the harbor

 

 

 

Thanks so much for that info., it sounds very useful especailly if we decide to tour without booking onboard the ship.
