My husband & I just got back from Aruba and took the Kukoo Kunuku pub bus tour. I cost us $58 per person on Travelocity.com as it was part of a package. The tour consists of 30 people in an open air (no windows) kinda of a Partridge Family bus on acid.
Our first stop was the lighthouse for a champagne toast and we were given maracas. The Music on the bus is LOUD, the ride is FAST. You stop for dinner at a huge private residence. The meal is good, like a wedding reception dinner. You get beef, chicken, salad, and a soft drink. A vegetarian plate of pasta is available.
You must buy a plastic drink container for $6.00. At the next 3 bars, you are given one free drink coupon, additional drinks are $2.00- $6.00. You stay at each bar for about an hour. The bus then takes you to your hotel lobby.
Ok. Good Time. Here's what you need to know. If you have 3 drinks at each bar, by midnite you will be BLOTO drunk. Make sure your husband is sober enough to defend your honor. Make sure he is sober enough to defend HIS honor.
The last bar we went to was a seedy little hole in the wall in the red light district. It was LOUD. I learned to limbo and to dance on the bar Coyote Ugly style. A older woman came up to my husband(who is not ugly), pinched him the butt and asked if he wanted a date.
My husband replied that I was his wife. The hooker replied without hesitation, "That will cost you double!" I laughed so hard, I almost wet myself. haha.
All in all, it was fun. At 265 lbs. and 6'4", I'm glad my husband can hold his liquor and carried me off the bus. It is definitely a young persons tour.
Remember, "If the the music is too loud, you are probably too old."
