Hi,
We will be coming to Aruba for the 1st time on June 9th. We would like to go on a jeep safari tour.

Does anyone know anything about sensitivehikers? We've looked on the web page and e-mailed him- but no response.
The web page for kinikini doesn't load- is there any other contact info for them?
What about ABC tours?

Any other ideas?? Thanks!

The forum has been very helpful- We are looking forward to coming!

Thanks! I've got an e-mail into KINKINI. Fodors recommended sensitive hikers- we were surprised to not hear back from them or find any reviews on them.

We have used Kini Kini and enjoyed our tour very much. They are a small "mom and pop" operation. They are on FB at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Oranjestad-Aruba/Kini-Kini-Transfer-Tours/366389799318

The nice thing about ABC Tours is that they use Range Rovers that hold as many as 9 passengers. If you have a group larger than 5, you should be able to fit in one vehicle.

My cousin took his family (there were 9 of them), and since they were the only ones on the tour, the drivers took them where they wanted to go. He reversed the tour and started with Baby Beach.

If they have a vehicle avaialble, you can even do a 24-hour rental from them. It's ideal for getting to the Natural Pool.

My first trip we went on a tour that took us through the north side of the island up to the lighthouse.
We had small suzuki open top "jeeps" and were covered in red dust by the time we finished.
We'd like to do it again but can't figure out the right place, anyone do this trip before?
