gzat · 10-13-2009, 06:12 PM

Hi,

I am off to Aruba for the 1st time the 1st week in November. I am going with the family which includes a 5 and 7 yr old.

Any suggestions on what we can do?

I was looking a horse back riding but which one should I use? Jeep tour?

Any ideas would be appreciated

Thanks!!

Arubalisa will be here shortly with links. I highly recommend a trip to Baby Beach, very safe inside the break water. They can stand waist deep in water and hand feed the fish(bagels)
