What travelers are saying.

High confidence

Travelers say AGW Tours delivers a fun, bumpy adventure across Aruba's less-traveled terrain. You'll hit 4–6 stops including Baby Beach, historic sites, and coastal cliffs in UTVs or jeeps over 4–5 hours for around $230 per vehicle. Guides like John B, Oko, Gio, and Dolfi earn consistent praise for their energy and historical knowledge, though you'll spend only 10–12 minutes at most stops. Expect an extremely rocky ride—reviewers lifting out of seats even belted in—and limited bathroom access on multi-hour tours. The Natural Pool stop is weather-dependent and was closed for several groups.

11 mentions
“I lifted out of my seat even belted in at 160 pounds”
Each stop allows only 10–12 minutes, feeling rushed with no time to explore deeply
4 mentions
“You get 10–12 minutes tops at sites, too rushed to explore”
Natural Pool access is weather-dependent and was closed for multiple groups, despite tour marketing
3 mentions

Tips from travelers

Reserve early in your trip—the bus route reveals places to revisit later
Bring water shoes for the Natural Pool if weather permits entry
Expect to pay $1–3 per bathroom stop on top of the $230 tour fee
Ask for guides John B, Oko, Gio, or Dolfi by name when booking

Maybe skip if: Anyone with back issues, motion sensitivity, or mobility concerns should avoid this tour due to the aggressively rocky terrain that throws passengers from their seats.
