It is difficult but beautiful. Sometimes it's overcrowded, but there are times when you can relax. We are coming by renting a car. So it can be experienced. Full review by Paradise57766649504

You need a 4x4 but suggest an ATV Will forward you an address in the morning where you can lease one. You can go with a group but you will be a bit limited in your movements. Say if you want to leave the west entrance near the windmills to go to baby beach. And you can do it in your time without a hoard of tourists of the group around you. Don't forget to bring along lost of water! Can stress this enough.

The island is not big, we stayed in the northern end of the island and our driver got us to the park in less than 30 minutes. We only spent a couple hours in the actual park, touring through the rough terrain, enjoying the ocean views, riding to the highest point of the park and seeing the caves. It's a nice diversion from the rest of the island.

I would rent a jeep so you can fully explore the whole park without concern. I would agree that you need to budget a day so you can explore and see. That way there is no rushing around. The enterance where you go into to pay is full of information to read and there are walking paths and locations to drive into. Worth the time, a different landscape than home. They have a map on thier web site to help you plan. If you have spare time check out the donkey sanctuary. Waze app worked well guiding us around.

Q:
Could you offer more details about booking the ranger tour in the Aruba National Park - exactly what we want to do. I don't see it on the national park website and could only find private tours with high prices and too many extras. The tour itself is what we want. Thanks for your time!

Try Expedia. El Tours.
