Around Aruba in 3 tours
Published on Feb, 2025
The audio tour was great! Good information and history. The sites covered in the tour were interesting and added to the knowledge about Aruba.
The GPS was a little off and turn notifications were late or not audible on many cases. It became a game for us to watch the moving map. Street names were not easy to see so made turns a bit of a challenge. So we made several u-turns to stay on tour.
All in all it was great.
Tour at your own pace
Published on Feb, 2024
This was a great way to see more of the island at our own pace. We rented a car and used the tours (there are three) to learn more about Aruba while we drove around. Sometimes we stuck with the tour and sometimes we explored destinations not on the tour, but it was a fun and economical way to take in sites but be able to be on our own time.
I’d not heard of this app before but there are tours for many places around the world. Will definitely use again!
Self paced tour
Published on Oct, 2023
This was a fun way to hit all of the tourist spots quickly so that I could then spend more time doing what I wanted on the island!
A great way to see the island
Published on Feb, 2023
A great way to tour Aruba at your own pace. And the tour covers the entire island. get away from the resort areas and see the real Aruba!
Great tour! Value was great!
Published on Sep, 2022
It was a great tour! Very informative. The app worked perfectly. We saw thing we normally would have missed out on. Only problem was, when the tour was over, we were in the middle of nowhere! Had to find our way back on our own.
