Island Tours
Jeep Safaris are one of the most popular tours in Aruba. Bounce, twist and
turn through the "Cunucu", Aruba's countryside where you can see iguanas, many species
of birds including the Shoco, known as the Aruban burrowing
owl, and the Prikichi, the Aruban parakeet.
Some tours explore the "Arikok National Park", which covers 18 percent of the
island and is home to several species which only
exist only on Aruba. Rock outcroppings create micro-climatic conditions to support these
unique plant and animal species, as well as settlements. These are located within the
Arikok National Park almost exclusively. Inside the park are some of the island's oldest
Arawak paintings. Arikok National Park is home to popular hiking trails, covering all
kinds of terrain from hills to gold mines, and even plantation ruins.
For spectacular views of the island, don't miss the helicopter tours by Aruba Helitours.

Bicycle Touring
|
|
Aruba is just small enough to allow for cycling enthusiasts to enjoy this desert island's
exotic terrain. Because some of the roads throughout the island are sandy, a mountain bike
is the way to go. The terrain is mainly flat so you won't get exhausted peddling up steep hills.
The weather is generally hot and sunny, but cyclists will appreciate Aruba's cooling
trade winds. Nevertheless, it is always advised to go armed with plenty of sunscreen
to battle the elements.
Bicycles can be rented at facilities such as touring companies and rental agencies
in Oranjestad. Check with your hotel for touring companies that have group excursions.

You'll view with excitement the Lava rock formations, or cacti dating back hundreds

shore. Share the 'Cunucu' with rabbits, iguanas, goats, parakeets and donkeys. Watch
and listen as the trupials and prikichis sing and soar in the cooling breezes and just
imagine the simple life lived by our ancient Indians up in the hills.
