Rueban was an excellent guide! Very friendly and knowledgeable. Mine was a very small tour so we were able to hear more history and ask questions. Try the rums, they were amazing!
This company scams you into purchasing a tour, only to not pick you up or communicate with you whatsoever, and keeps your money. Absolutely terrible. Buyer, beware of this tour; it's a rip-off. Don't purchase it; please save your money.
Hello Mr. Velekei, Thank you for taking the time to write your review. Unfortunately, it appears that you may not have seen the messages we sent regarding your pickup. We sent a reminder the evening before your scheduled transfer on June 11 at 8:45 AM from Eagle Resort. your first message was sent at 8:45 PM on June 10. Please note that our office is closed at that time and reopens at 8:30 AM. You then sent another message at 8:07 AM on June 11, and we replied at 8:50 AM to confirm that your driver was outside waiting for you. Your pickup was scheduled for 8:45 AM at Eagle Resort, and the vehicle was a dark blue executive van. If you were unable to locate the driver, you could have contacted us via WhatsApp or by calling the telephone number provided on your booking documents. At 9:00 AM, after waiting for more than 20 minutes, your driver, Juan, departed and the reservation was marked as a no-show. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your feedback. Kind regards,
I felt the cost was too high for the little bit of time at each place. The Terrafuse was short and not very informative. I felt the aloe plant and The Aruhiba Cigar stop were the best. I really enjoyed the warming atmosphere athe the cigar facility.

My husband and I were looking for a unique experience and that is exactly what we got. We were the only two people on the tour and Ruben made us feel like we were VIP. His knowledge is expansive and it seemed like he knew everyone. We were very pleased with the tour and it is worth every penny if you want a different type of tour. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Very fun and informative tour of everything made in Aruba. We visited an Aloe plantation, Terrafuse art gallery, cigar makers and rum producers. Ouu guide was Ruben and he was excellent. Very knowledgeable and a joy to spend our vacation time with. This was my favorite excursion by far.

Where to start... our guide was Reuben, he was wonderful, funny, informative, overall a great guide to have! We ended up being the only ones this day for the tour, which was great! Went to Aruba Aloe, asked if we wanted to go to AYO or Casibari rock, we had already been to Casibari, so we chose AYO. He walked/hiked with us giving us the background on everything. We went to small place where they make cigars. Extremely nice people. Got to see the process. Stopped by Studio Murano Art and saw them doing glasswork, so amazing very nice people there as well. Got lunch while there, was very good. After that we went to do rum tastings. We had told Reuben we liked rum, don't think he really believed us until we got there and started tasting! We tasted just about all the rum! Highly recommend this tour!

Positives: Leon did a great job as our tour guide. Friendly, funny and cared about needs. The Aloe tour was wonderful. Lots of explanation about how the products are made as well as a demonstration of how some Aloe is processed. Staff was very knowledgeable about all the products. The glass blowing was interesting but I had seen it done before. But they did a very nice job. Rum tasting was fun! Lots of rum to choose from and all of our group had a great time. Negatives: Terrafuse glass and ceramic had been taken off the tour, but there was no mention of it at booking. I was extremely disappointed as that was my top reason for going. Leon took us to the gold ruins to fill in, but frankly, there was no comparison with that vs. art. We should have been told up front and offered a discount as this was not a last minute decision to not go to Terrafuse. I also feel that all the stairs at the Aloe facility and the bleacher seating at glass blowing should be mentioned. I was quite able to do it, but someone with any injury or elderly would have a difficult time.
Thank you for taking the time to write your review. I’m glad to hear that Leon made your tour enjoyable. Unfortunately, Terrafuse is currently on vacation and will reopen in two weeks. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. On your next visit, please let us know in advance and I’ll be happy to arrange for Leon to take you to Terrafuse.
This was a delightful trip that visited a number of local sights that we had not seen before on our previous visits to Aruba. Our driver, Leon, was knowledgeable and answered all of our questions about the local area. All of the venues we visited provided an insight into local craftspeople and businesses. Our very favorite was the rum tasing at The Arubian Taste. We brought a few bottles home to enjoy the flavor of Aruba throughout the year. Highly recommend this tour if you're looking for a unique excursion of the island.
Enjoyed our tour today with Leon. Would recommend this outing for couples and groups looking for something different from the sun and sand. This tour was a great opportunity to meet people and see their contribution to this beautiful island. Bring money to shop, and your questions. There is so much to see and enjoy (plus lunch) on this tour. You won’t be disappointed
hank you for taking the time to write your review we are pleased to hear that Leon has made your tour enjoyable Thank you and keep enjoying life
