Alto Vista Chapel
Start your tour with the first stop at the historic Chapel of Alto Vista. The yellow chapel of Alto Vista is considered to be the birthplace of Aruba's Catholic religion, the first Chapel to be built on the island by the Indians and the Spanish Pioneers in 1750. The chapel offers a sense of peacefulness to all those who enter its sacred doors to meditate and pray, with a beautiful landscape as its surroundings.
A natural formation you'll visit is the Baby Natural Bridge, which succeeded with original Natural Bridge in 2005 after its collapse. You'll be in awe to witness how nature can create such beautiful constructs that still stand and attract thousands of visitors from all over the world.
Bushiribana Ruins
We include one of the most amazing historical landmarks of Aruba, which was once a prided mill that processed gold on the Island, Bushiribana Gold Mill Ruins. Dating back to the 1400s when Aruba was being dug up for wealth and riches, the gold prospectors finally found gold mines and eventually constructed this fort-like mill out of stone boulders. Fun Fact: The mill was built to resemble a fort to scare away pirates!
Casibari Rock Formations
Explore the unusual design of this Rock Formation placed in close proximity to each other and explore the history of Indian cave paintings.

Major highlight of our honeymoon
This tour was a major highlight of my husband and I's honeymoon. Gabriel, our guide, was charismatic, knowledgeable, and had a great sense of humor! We definitely recommend incorporating this experience into your Aruba vacation.

Great excursion, just bring something for dust and sun!
You’ll have a great time on this four-by-four trip, especially if Gabriel is your guide! We had an absolute blast and would highly recommend this to anyone! Wear sunscreen and something to cover your face for the dust, but it’s well worth the price, especially if you do the 2-seat and ride together!

100% recommended
Amazing experience!!! This was the best experience we had in Aruba. Unlike ATV rides in Mexico (Cancun), this one actually takes you off-road and last alomst 2 hours. 100% worth the money. Not recommended if yoy are pregnant or have health issues. It's really dusty; make sure you bring ur dust mask and goggles. Small group of 7-8 ATVs. Amazing staff and tour guides. Great atmosphere.

Gabriel is the best!!
My tour guide, Gabriel is 10 out of 10. I appreciated his kindness and patience with me while I drove an atv for the first time. A very memorable experience. This was very adventurous, especially if you’re not afraid to get dirty. His wild energy is what kept it entertaining. 🦅
