Hubert the Taxi driver

Just got back from a week's stay at Marriot Aruba Surf Club. We used Hubert (Bully's brother in law). This is the guy to use if Bully is not available! He was there to greet us at the airport with name card. He was $70 round trip (that included tip-to hotel on arrival date and from hotel on departure date). Great guy and he knows Aruba

Just to clarify for everyone , the fare from the airport to the Surf Club is $25 each way.

I am sure Hubert appreciated the tip. He is every bit as nice a fellow as Bully.

He picked us up as well. What a way to start a vacation. He is a wonderful man. Nothing like getting your luggage then seeing this man with a HUGE smile holding a card with your name. How SPECIAL you feel. I thank you Hubert for an amazing start to a wonderful vacation.

Hubert also picked us up at the airport last week with our names on a sign. Bully's van was in the shop. Hubert was very nice and most professional. We later used Bully for an island tour as I previously mentioned in another thread. Thanks Hubert for your great service.

Hubert is a very nice guy.

Chat with him about baseball, he knows his stuff. His brother used to play in the major leagues.

i had Bully and Hubert pick us up.

Hubert was a riot, we had a good time talking to him, as he picked us up from the airport. Met his wife, when he picked us up from Passions(june 19th).

Bully was extremely friendly and helpful, cannot go wrong with either.

I tried to email him to say thanx, but never got a response from Hubert.


To be honest, we never had any problems with any of the cab drivers, all were cordial, helpful, and professional.
