About this experience
Our early-morning sunrise hike allows you to get intimate with Aruba's Natural Pool, which is usually visited by large groups at the same time. Since this is a private tour, you’ll have this unique site completely to yourself.
Enjoy the Natural Pool's raw natural beauty: float around, jump off some rocks, or snorkel around and look at the fish. Leave the tourist traps behind and enjoy at your own pace under the expert guidance of your private local guide.
This is an All-Inclusive tour. Just bring your swimwear (optional), hiking clothes, a hat, and sturdy closed shoes. We'll take care of everything else.
