Itinerary

  1. Check in for your safety briefing and instructions.

    30 min

  2. Start your tour with the first stop at the historic Chapel of Alto Vista. The yellow chapel of Alto Vista is considered to be the birthplace of Aruba's Catholic religion, the first Chapel to be built on the island by the Indians and the Spanish Pioneers in 1750. The chapel offers a sense of peacefulness to all those who enter its sacred doors to meditate and pray, with a beautiful landscape as its surroundings.

    20 min

  3. A natural formation you'll visit is the Baby Natural Bridge, which succeeded with original Natural Bridge in 2005 after its collapse. You'll be in awe to witness how nature can create such beautiful constructs that still stand and attract thousands of visitors from all over the world.

    20 min

  4. We include one of the most amazing historical landmarks of Aruba, which was once a prided mill that processed gold on the Island, Bushiribana Gold Mill Ruins. Dating back to the 1400s when Aruba was being dug up for wealth and riches, the gold prospectors finally found gold mines and eventually constructed this fort-like mill out of stone boulders. Fun Fact: The mill was built to resemble a fort to scare away pirates!

    20 min

  5. Explore the unusual design of this Rock Formation placed in close proximity to each other and explore the history of Indian cave paintings.

About Oranjestad

Oranjestad is Aruba's small harbour capital, a Caribbean town of pastel Dutch gables, old forts and shopping streets on a dry, sunny coast.

Oranjestad sits on Aruba's leeward coast, where the island is flat and arid and edged with cacti, and its centre mixes Dutch colonial gables with Caribbean colour. Fort Zoutman, dating from the 1790s, is among the oldest buildings in town and holds the island's historical museum, with the Willem III Tower, a later addition, beside it. Wilhelmina Park, a small tropical garden by the water, is named after the Dutch queen.
