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.

Our first full day on Aruba and we spent the day exploring the island from top to bottom with ABC Tours. It is the best way to see all of the “must-see” places Aruba has to offer and you won’t be disappointed! Our tour guide Uncle Johnny was amazing. He was very informative at each stop and we had plenty of time to explore and enjoy. We also can’t say enough good things about our drivers, Tony and Wally. They kept us entertained and were a lot of fun. We definitely recommend this tour!

This is a great way to spend a night in Aruba. Excellent food, drinks and staff! The food was just as good as the top restaurants on the island. The staff was fun and played music for all ages as well as took requests. We were able to have a clear night and the sunset on the water offered great pictures. We had a group of 7 people and really enjoyed this cruise and will book this again the next time we are on the island!
