    The trip was excellent. Highly recommend this trip. There was a total of 14 in our group ranging from Florida, Illinois, Washington, New York and Russia. Our guide Erold gave us the history as we walked about 3 miles on a non advertised trail to the Natural Pool. You will realize quickly why the trip leaves very early. We had it all to ourselves. It was an amazing experience. You will never find this site on your own. We finally arrived to the area and I was wondering where is it. Erold said it is secluded behind those rocks. Once we climbed around the rocks, what a beautiful site. It only took me 10 years to get here since I always rent a car. Thank you Viator for introducing me to this excursion. This is the only natural pool excursion where you can use a rental car. A SUV, ATV or Jeep is not necessary. Just bring plenty of water and sneakers for the journey. Water shoes, swimwear, snorkeling gear or goggles in the pool. Once leaving, the sun starts to become very hot. Other groups from Safari tours are now arriving. There is barely space in the pool for all those people. Even though it may be hard to get up so early it is worthwhile having the chance to enjoy the pool to yourself.

    From the moment i met Yari for our natural pool walk, it felt like being reunited with family. Yari is such a bright soul, radiating warmth and enthusiasm for both people and her work. She took excellent care of us throughout the entire hike, making sure we were safe, comfortable, and having a fantastic time. The hike itself was breathtaking, filled with stunning scenery and the refreshing beauty of Aruba's natural pools. But it was Yari's infectious energy and genuine passion that truly made the experience unforgettable. She shared fascinating stories and insights about the local landscape, and her joy was absolutely contagious. Without a doubt, this was one of the highlights of my trip. I’m already looking forward to taking this journey with Yari again on my next visit to Aruba. Yari, you're the best and much appreciated! Thank you for an amazing adventure, Yari! 🌟 Would I recommend this tour? Absolutely! 5 stars all the way!

    My daughter and I did this on our last day in Aruba. What a wonderful hike and swim. Yeri was so friendly and knowledgeable about the hike and land. The pool had lots of marine life to watch. The hike back was heating up but we made it. It is a mix of rocks and sand hike. It’s about 4 miles total. Would definitely recommend!

    I have to say, the BEST way to experience one of Aruba's most unique and amazing sights is with this Sunrise walking Tour! Yari & Genesis are amazing, very knowledgeable tour guides. You get to know the history of Aruba while also learning about the Flora & Fauna. Walking with a small group of people makes the experience feel like a private tour. Also, the Time is PERFECT! You get there early and leave just in time before it gets hot or have the sun on top of you, and you still have the whole day to enjoy after. Honestly this walking experience is so much better than being on big jeeps filled with people rushing from point to point. A Walking Tour is much. better and worth it!

    Yari provided one of the best experiences on the island. Her promptness, warm and friendly personality, and extensive local knowledge made the early morning hike absolutely worth it. She pointed out hidden in plain sight features and shared fascinating stories about the island's history, making the journey come alive.
