Aruba is not a large island, and it's very easy to get around. Most visitors will arrive at Queen Beatrix International Airport via charter and scheduled flights. Cruise ships do dock at the island, often used as a starting point for Caribbean cruising.
Although many tourists opt to get around to restaurants and nightclubs by taxi, others have discovered that Aruba's bus system is efficient, easy to use and quite affordable. The bus runs frequently between the main bus station in downtown Oranjestad and the entire hotel strip.
If you'd like to explore the whole island, you can rent a scooter, or a motorcycle (even a Harley!) Car rentals are available, but most people prefer to rent a 4-wheel drive jeep because Aruba's terrain can be rugged in remote areas. Luxurious motorcoach tours are also available that will pick you up at your hotel.
