Tour guide and places seen were excellent.

My husband and I have been to Aruba 20+ times and this was the best tour we have ever been on this island of Aruba. Poncho was our driver and tour guide and he was excellent. We enjoyed every minute of this tour even though we’ve been here many times. Would definitely recommend 💯 percent. My husband took all the pics so I did not download them yet, but will post pics later.

Pancho’s amazing tour!

We had an amazing time with Pancho on this tour! He was so kind to wait for us (we got lost getting to our tour starting point and the company called us and Pancho was able to find us!) He was so knowledgeable, patient, and funny. We saw all the highlights and more (eagle and palm beaches, Beverly Hills of Aruba, authentic Aruban cuisine, and so much more). Given we stayed at the other end of the island, this was an amazing way to see as much as we could in a short amount of time. We cannot thank Pancho enough for his time and thoughtful tour experience!

Amazing Tour with Pancho

This tour was one of the best tours my husband and I have ever taken! Pancho was so accommodating and even waited for us after getting lost and being over an hour late for our scheduled tour. Since we stayed at the other end of the island (Secrets Baby Beach) Pancho showed us all the tour highlights and other parts of the island we would have never seen otherwise (Dutch neighborhoods, Eagle and Palm Beaches, hotel row, “the Beverley hills of Aruba”, and local places to eat Aruban cuisine). It was truly a once in a lifetime kind of experience, since we saw so much more than what we expected (and happened to be the only group on tour that day). Thank you, Pancho, for your patience, flexibility, and knowledge of the island! It is such a beautiful place and we are lucky to have visited! With love, Brittany & Tanner

Great Aruba Highlights Tour!

This tour from Kini-Kini Tours utilizes air-conditioned vans that hold about ten people which makes for a streamlined, efficient, and personalized experience. We left at 8:30 and were back at 1:00. It's a dry tour with only beach viewing, no snorkeling. We saw all of the dry highlights including a great Aloe Factory, ostrich farm,, Natural Bridge, a chapel, and lighthouse. We toured some downtown areas of Orangestad. There were tours at the Aloe Factory and ostrich farm which were very good. Our driver was amazing. There are other tours for snorkeling and such, but this is a really good Highlights of Aruba tour!
