Itinerary
Start and Finish Point
Ayo Rock Formation are monolithic rock boulders on the Island of Aruba. Earlier settlers of Aruba called the Arawak people used to visit the rock formation so they can hear incoming thunderstorm closing in on the island. You will see their carved painting on some rocks.
The national park has many different sights and sounds. Depending in what areas you are, in the park you can see wild life, the tallest peaks in Aruba, stunning coastlines and arid vegetation that most people have not seen before.
Located in the national park, you will see the Natural Pool is made out of vulcanic rocks. It offers a wall of protection against the big waves from coming in. You will see that waves crashing at the back of the rocks, only to splash gently into the pool. You will see that it takes almost 100 steps to get down to the pool.

Traveler reviews
Jeep excursion with family of 8.
This tour was excellent!! Our group had 2 kids under 10, a bunch of 40 somethings, and our 70-80 year old parents. Everyone had a blast. The open air Jeep was a fun ride, even with all the bumps. Big G was a FANTASTIC guide and he took great care of us. He gave us so much information and history about the island, it was really educational. The pool, cave, and beach were all perfect. A really cool part of the tour was the stop at the rock formation and learning about the eagles and cactus fruit. We didn't expect that. Lunch was very tasty and definitely needed after several hours bumping around in the sun. Just as an FYI, there are some steep steps and rocky areas to navigate. If you are with someone with mobility or balance issues they may want to be prepared to stay back during those parts. It didn't hinder our enjoyment of the day though. I'd definitely recommend ABC Tours to everyone!
Awesome time and fun!!!
We had a wonderful experience!! We saw multiple locations, awesome ride, and fun tour guides made it even better!! Josh and Curt were wonderful and made this tour awesome! This was our third time to Aruba and doing jeep tours..we keep coming back to ABC Tours each visit for an awesome time!! We will be back!
Beautiful but rough pool!
The natural pool is the highlight. Most fun! It was smaller than expected but there are only few tourists during our time. Louis was the guide. Although he is always courteous, there's not a dull moment with him. Extremely bumpy ride in the park. But the 4x4 driving was handled well.
Great tour!!!!
Josh and Curt were the best! They made it very entertaining. Such a fun trip! Definitely recommend this tour.
Great experience!
Very bumpy ride, but that was well explained ahead of time. Luis was a great guide! Would recommend him and this excursion!
