Tour Options
Itinerary
Walk among towering boulders shaped by time and nature. Climb to scenic viewpoints and admire ancient Arawak petroglyphs carved into the rocks.
Wander through two illuminated chambers filled with shafts of sunlight, natural formations, and local legends—this cave is as mysterious as it is beautiful.
Take in the dramatic contrast of Aruba’s wind-carved white sand dunes against the deep blue of the Caribbean Sea—a stunning photo stop and a glimpse into the island’s raw natural beauty.
Step into the mystical Fontein Cave, where centuries-old Arawak drawings line the limestone ceilings. Just outside, dip your feet into a natural spring for a playful fish pedicure—where tiny fish gently exfoliate your feet in a unique and refreshing experience.
Drive past Aruba’s renewable energy hub where towering wind turbines spin along the southeastern coast—a powerful symbol of the island’s commitment to sustainability.
Arrive at Aruba’s iconic Natural Pool, nestled between volcanic rock. Cool off with a swim or snorkel (weather permitting), as waves crash around this hidden coastal gem.

Marcel was a Great tour guide and the day was amazing. We learned lots and were able to see some incredible places
Our experience was wonderful. The tour guide taught us about the beauty and wonder of this one happy island, and also helped us feel safe. He provided just enough information without inundating us. I would recommend. Please be aware this tour involves lots of stairs to navigate.
Great experience from start to finish. JP Morgan was great. We really appreciated his energy he brought to the group
It’s great to know the experience felt right from beginning to end! We’ll make sure JP hears how much you appreciated the energy he brought to the group. Thanks for exploring Aruba with us! The Pelican Adventures Team
Just want to say that we had overall a pretty good time on the tour. The tour guide was super knowledgable and nice throughout the whole tour, he was really funny and kept the whole group laughing. All of the spots we got to see were beautiful and full of so much history. The only downside we found is for guests with nut allergies. The tour offers water and a granola bar for a snack which is really nice but unfortunately all of the granola bars contained nuts. My wife has a severe nut allergy where even just touching a surface that someone else touched who ate nuts can send risk sending her into anaphylactic shock. We notified our guide of the severe nut allergy and were hoping that he would give out the granola bars after the tour due to the allergy so at least people would be able to enjoy whats expected on the tour. Instead, he decided to give everyone a granola bar right after we told him that she is allergic, so every other person on the truck was eating nuts around us while driving to the next spot. Once we reached the next spot, we didn't feel comfortable enough to get back onto the truck and risk having her touch a surface not knowing and take a trip to the hospital, so we notified the guide of the situation. He was super apologetic about the whole thing and brought us to a park ranger to help get us get back to our hotel since we had no service to call a taxi. Unfortunately, the company itself did not want to bring out a car to come bring us back to our hotel so it was either spend a ton of money on a taxi or somehow find a ride. Luckily the park supervisor was super nice and understanding of the situation as she also had a nut allergy. She tried to work with the Pelican Adventures to see if they would get a car to bring us back as it was their fault we were in this situation in the first place. Although she talked with them a bit, they thought it would be nice if the park supervisor would bring us back to our hotel instead of the company providing us a ride back. This is NOT HER JOB, she gave the company that as an option as a last case scenario as she felt bad about us having to spend so much money getting a taxi from the park back to our hotel. We were a 30+ minute drive away which for taxis in Aruba is not a cheap ride. Luckily we had someone as nice and amazing as her to help us out but it should not have come down to that in the first place.
JP Morgan was a great guide! Would do this again!
So glad you had such a great time discovering Aruba with JP! Knowing you’d happily do it all over again is such a great compliment. We’ll be ready whenever Aruba brings you back! The Pelican Adventures Team
We had a blast with JP our guide. Loved swimming in the natural pool! Took a snorkel and saw a lot of fish even a snowflake eel! Glad we don't get car sick, because it's a bumpy ride! They supplied water and snacks. Bring water shoes for natural pool and I'm glad I wore sneakers for walking in the caves. It's a must do, if you're in Aruba!
Sounds like you really embraced the adventure with JP! We love hearing that you got to discover so much along the way. Thanks for the great recommendation and for sharing a few helpful tips for future explorers. We hope Aruba gives you another reason to adventure with us again! The Pelican Adventures Team
We did the tour of the island to see the caves and the natural pool. JP was such a great tour guide! I highly recommend if you are up for an adventure.
It’s great to hear you had such a good time discovering this side of Aruba with JP! There’s so much to see beyond the beaches, and we’re glad the experience was one you’d recommend. Hope to explore more of the island with you someday! The Pelican Adventures Team
Our tour guide JP (Jean Pierre) was very helpful and fun! He made the experience 10x better. The experience was beautiful and worth the pricing. Would definitely recommend and do this again!
So happy to hear you had such a great time with JP! A good mix of exploring, learning, and having fun along the way can make for a pretty special day in Aruba. Thanks for the recommendation, we hope to see you again! The Pelican Adventures Team
They forgot to pick us up at the hotel, the last day of our trip, scheduled for more than 1 month, by Civitatis, we called to check the delay, they said that there was a problem in the system, always the same excuse, what do they mean was their fault, I do not recommend, look for another agency, they said they would return the money, is the least no?
This was an awesome tour! Victor kept us engaged, entertained and educated throughout! The ride to the natural pool is pure chaos, but I loved the bouncing around! Be aware that there is a large flight of stairs leading down to the pool, and what goes down must come back up 🤣 the pool itself was nice and not overly crowded. The caves were cool to see and get a history on. The bats were minimal and didn't bother us. The fish pedicure was an unexpected little treat. I had a great time and would HIGHLY recommend hanging with Victor!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re so glad you had such a fun time exploring Aruba with Victor and that he kept the day both entertaining and informative. It sounds like you really made the most of every stop along the way! We truly appreciate the recommendation and hope to have you back for another adventure on the island, The Pelican Adventures Team
