Had an amazing experience! Nestor was very kind and helpful!! He taught my wife how to control the horse (it was her first time) and had the patience to do so! If you looking to go horse back riding you should definitely do it here!

Absolutely exceptional! Rachel provides personalized, professional service, more than just sliding a contract on the table... recommended a remote restaurant for a birthday celebration, which was outstanding. And when we returned, she had a customized, embossed coffee cup for our birthday celebrant which she claimed the best gift she had gotten in Aruba! Safety is of course number one, the vehicles are reliable, worked well, all twelve of us had a wonderful experience! And the navigation system is brilliant. I changed the proposed itinerary four or five times and handled it all right on my cell phone (hint, bring a charge cord and use it from the first moment you start using the app). This team is VERY easy to work with, I look forward to going there again.

Single mom traveling with a 2yo here - these guys were amazing. I attempted to book a family friendly snorkel tour and somehow ended up on a booze cruise with the only kid on the boat. The crew took it in stride and made sure both of us had a great time. The helped getting her in and out of the boat, filled her snorkel raft (it has a window so she can ride on it and see the reef) and RJ even carried her on what was an unexpectedly long walk from the parking lot to the boat. At one point when the twenty somethings were having a blast and my daughter was curled in my lap, the captain even offered to turn down the music for us. There was no need (she'll sleep through anything) but I greatly appreciated the gesture. 100% would recommend them for families, groups of friends, birthdays - whatever brings you to Aruba pay RJ and the crew at Around Aruba tours a visit. You won't be disappointed.

We took a cruise the week of January 11th, one of the stops was Aruba. I had contacted Randy a couple weeks prior to our trip and he was really responsive. I had contact a couple other companies and they never replied. Randy was so easy to communicate with via email. We decided to do the 4 hour tour of Aruba for our party of 6 which was 4 adults and 2 children ages 5 and 3. Benjamin was our tour guide. He picked us up right outside the port and had a sign with our last name on it. He told us to stay put because he parked far and he would come get us so we wouldn't have to walk. It was a hot 82 degree day. He pulled up with the van which had plenty of room for us to stretch out. It was nice and air conditioned and clean! The weather that day was strange. It would be sunny and then pour and then stop and it was windy. We didn't let that stop us. We took photos by a couple Aruba signs, saw the 600 step hike. We didn't do the hike, but took photos. It was beautiful. We also saw the rock formations and the natural bridge which was breathtaking. We also saw the lighthouse but didn't climb up. I'm sure it would have had an amazing view, but we wanted to spend a couple hours at the beach. After visiting destinations and giving us some history, Benjamin dropped us off at Eagle Beach for 1.5 - 2 hours. The beach is clean, white sand and blue water. Our family had so much fun. Benjamin waited for us while we hung out at the beach and didn't charge us extra. We had paid for a 4 hour tour, with the beach stop, it was more like like 6 hours! He then took us back to the port so we got back around 1:30. We had time to shop and eat. He recommended The Old Fisherman. This place was reasonably priced and good! My husband and I ordered grilled red snapper and it was only 20 bucks. It came with rice, fries and plantains. We had an amazing time in Aruba and want to spend a few days there. Thanks so much To Alpha Tours, Randy and Benjamin for a fun filled day! I would recommend using this tour company. They are great.

ATTG took our group all over the island to some of the best places to see and do in Aruba! Rensley is the best, he is a native of Aruba, knows everything about the history and culture of the island and is passionate about sharing it with others. Up for adventure? They can do that. Looking to relax? They do that too. From snorkeling, off roading and hikes to white sand beaches, natural pools, rum tasting and more! (we were there for 2 weeks, we did a lot!) Awesome trip with these guys! We even got to meet Rensley's wife Rita, who is so much fun! Don't hesitate to take a tour with them.
