These are the best Aruba tours for cruise ship passengers when you’re on the island.
Aruba Tours For Cruise Ship Passengers
All recommended activities on this article includes pick up at the Aruba Cruise port, and drop off at the cruise port, after the tour ends. The Aruba cruise excusrions offered here are unique and one of a kind!
1. Go Horseback Riding at Wariruri Beach
One of the best horseback rides in Aruba that I personally recommend is a horse riding tour to Wariruri beach.
This trail is good for beginners and experienced riders, because the trail has both countryside and beach rides, which offer the best of both worlds.
Horseback riding to Wariruri beach is available in two time slots, either morning tours, or afternoon tours.
Morning tours are best for riders who want to see the beauty of Aruba before the sun gets too hot. The afternoon tours are best if you want to experience the island’s beauty during downtime and right before the sunset.
Horseback Riding Tours – $105.00
Ride a horse in the country side of Aruba towards a hidden bay at Wariruri Beach.

5. Rent a Car & Explore The Island.
If you want to explore the island on your own without a guide, one of the best things to do is rent your own vehicle, and head out to the iconic spots, beautiful beaches and grab some authentic local dishes where the locals eat.
You can rent different vehicles on the island.
Are you thinking of heading to the country side of the island, and visit the Arikok National Park and swim at the natural pool? You’d be better off renting a jeep.
A midsize car is a good choice when roaming around the island to iconic landmarks like the California Lighthouse, or going beach hopping at Palm Beach all the way to Baby Beach.
