About $30 each-way. It is just past and behind the airport. IMHO Marandi is a don't miss dinner on Aruba. The Chocolate Trio is the perfect end to a meal there too.

ginette one of the options that folks choose is to rent a car for 24 hrs.
use the car for a day trip to baby beach, an island tour and a dinner someplace not on the beaten path.
you will get more bang for your buck.

Hubert kingsale taxi #83


Hubert Kingsale is the number one Taxi driver on the Island of Aruba!! Over the last several years Hubert has been very courteous and prompt while providing outstanding service. Mr. Kingsale Taxi 83 takes great pride in providing 100% customer satisfaction and loves his job. I highly recommend Hubert if you need the services of a professional taxi driver. Also if you are lucky you may meet his brother who is a professional baseball player. Hubert is related to Bully for those of you who are familiar with Taxi 79.
