About this experience
One epic adventure. Three ways to experience it.
This Jeep Adventure is built entirely around Arikok National Park, Aruba’s iconic natural reserve. Led by local guides, it’s one unforgettable experience with three different routes, each offering a unique way to explore the park’s wild side, history, and coastline.
Morning Route (4 hrs)
Start with a local pastechi, then head deep into Arikok on rugged off-road trails. Visit the Natural Pool (Conchi) for swimming, snorkeling, and cliff jumping (conditions permitting). Continue to Fontein Cave and Quadirikiri Cave to see ancient Arawak (Caiquetio) rock drawings and enjoy a wild fish pedicure. Finish at Dos Playa for dramatic coastal views.

A smoother, scenic route along the coastline, visiting Fontein Cave, Quadirikiri Cave, and Boca Prins — perfect for a relaxed ride.
