Explore the Aruban countryside on a 2.5-hour small-group hiking tour led by a professional multilingual guide. Learn about the geology and history of Aruba as you enjoy a scenic adventure. Your hike will take place in a small-group of up to 10 people with an easy, intermediate or advanced route depending on the group's skill level.
This is a very enjoyable excursion. The guide is extremely knowledgeable about Aruba's history, economic & political issues and the issues of tourism on a small island, It adds an interesting element to approx. 10km/3 hr walk through the cactus countryside and more . An excellent alternative to all day at the beach - but still leaves you plenty of beach time after the walk - and I can recommend this tour to get a feel of the real Aruba. pick up/drop off is included at the pier or hotel .

Rancho Notorious was recommended to me by a work friend! We did the Monday morning 7am dunes ride and it was absolutely wonderful. The guy that picked us up from our hotel was very nice (I cannot remember his name) and Nelson our guide was great as well! We will def be back the next time we come to Aruba! :)

To get information from Nestor regarding the nature on the hiking trip. Nestor imitated the birds that are local and the birds answered his whistling.
