Tour Recommendations?

[Desdemona01]

Since ABC apparently doesn't offer island tours anymore, and Pelican doesn't offer them on the day of the week that we're there, does anyone have a recommendation for a good (non-4WD) island tour?

A few years back, I took a Jeep Tour through Wix tours, and was very satisfied. Off course, I can't comment on the Bus tour itself, but only of the company.

 

I had booked through the internet, and I had saved about 10%. Can't remember what site I had used though.

I've never dealt with either company personally. I do know that my travel agent had/has a business relationship with WIX and let's just say he is pretty "picky". My intuition though says you cannot go wrong with either.

Thank you for your reply

The last time we were in Aruba we rented scooters and criss-crossed the island at our own pace. We had a blast. The island is very small - half of the island is basically a desert.

 

When hang gliding at Palm Beach I could see right across the island.
