cdnliving Posted March 4, 2009 #1 Share Posted March 4, 2009 We are still trying to decide how to spend our time in Aruba. We are cruising with several other beach excursions, so thought we'd do some land touring in Aruba. We were thinking of doing a private jeep tour and take in: the natural bridge, wish garden, chapel, wild donkeys, and do 1/2 hr of shelling at boca catalina, and possibly a quick lunch/snack. I contacted kinikini with our request and was told this was too much to fit in, but could do all but lunch for $119.00 per adult - the kids are $59.50 (we are a family of 4). We have done a lot of tours and this just seems terribly expensive. For those of you who have been, do you think it's worth it? Any other recommendations?? Thanks for your insights.

Arubalisa Posted March 6, 2009 #4 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Here is another suggestion from one of my friends who used a taxi driver named Cerry Croes for an island tour in January. Her comments: "yes more than a "generic tour" but as somoene that did our own al' acarte tour with cerry in january, it is money well spent. he is accomodating and knowledgeable. yes a taxi/tour service, but i felt like it was a limo service." http://www.pitaruba.com/ Email cyrllcroes@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
