Explore the highlights of Aruba on an air-conditioned bus. Your friendly and professional tour guide will show you the beauty, culture, and natural landmarks of Aruba.

First, you will make a visit to the Aloe Vera Factory, where you will tour the state-of-the-art facility and learn more about its history in the adjacent museum. Aloe, first introduced to the island in 1840, became a very important part of Aruba's history. At one point Aruba was the largest exporter of Aloe in the world, with almost two-thirds of the island covered in plants.

You will also see some of Aruba's famous natural wonders, including Casibari Rock Formations and, if roads permit, the Natural Bridge, a formation of coral limestone cut by years of pounding surf. Then head to the Ostrich Farm and enjoy a delicious local BBQ lunch, featuring barbecued chicken and ribs or the catch of the day, accompanied by fried rice, salad, corn on the cob, fried plantain and dessert.

Next you will travel to Alto Vista Chapel. The chapel was built on the site of the first Catholic Church built in Aruba in 1750 by a Spanish missionary. It is a special place for peace and contemplation, surrounded by the Aruban countryside.

Your final stop will be at the famous California Light House, named after a ship called the California, which has the distinction of having received distress signals from the Titanic as she went down in icy waters in 1912. This area offers some of the most beautiful scenic views of Aruba.
