Unique experience and...
Unique experience and smooth boarding process for the ferry and enter the submarine. The host was also very engaging. Kinda of wanted to see more sea creatures but they can’t really control that so still an amazing experience.

What a great underwater experience @
What a fantastic ride! The crew was very helpful and very professional! Amazing views from 100feet under the water. The experience was well worth the money! Highly recommend this trip to all.

Under the sea
Saw a lot of sea life. Felt a little cramped but lots of viewing windows. Really cool to look out the front captains window. Captain spent a lot of time talking to one female who sat in the cockpit.

Cool way to see Coral Reef life
Wasn’t sure how this tour would be but it turned out to be one of our favorite excursions. My wife was a little concerned about being claustrophobic but never felt anxious…good airflow and lots of windows and things to look at. Really cool way to see coral reef life. Highly recommend.

snorkeling without getting wet
atlantis submarine was a lot of fun. everyone was friendly and the boat ride out to the sub was also fun and the staff was great. they showed us two shipwrecks and lots of tropical fish, stingray etc. they would turn the sub and make sure you could see everything. i would highly recommend it. to me it was not scary at all.

Excellent unique and safe submarine ride down around 140ft
There are not many places where you can get to ride on a real submarine. Naturally, when we saw this activity in Aruba, we did not hesitate to book it. We booked at the Viktor site for US$112+ (cheaper than main site). The Atlantis submarine was modern and safe, and it was fully booked on the Sat 11am tour, with 48 people. Everyone had a seat in the middle of the submarine with Individual round viewing window. The captain was very experienced and made sure both sides got to see the same highlights. We saw different types of fish (including 1 turtle and 1 stingray) and 2 ship wrecks. We thoroughly enjoyed the unique opportunity to ride in a submarine and would recommended this activity. I have to say the submarine ride was the highlight of our trip in Aruba and will remain one of the most enjoyable and memorable events.

One Of A Kind Experience!
Truly a one of a kind experience! Dwayne, Francis, and the submarine pilot were excellent guides. We got to see a turtle, all kinds of fish, and some shipwrecks. The submarine was packed but I never felt claustrophobic.
