    Take the bus around parts of Aruba. The main depot is in Oranjestad and there are maps and bulletin boards to tell you how to get to places. Cost is $2US (2005 prices). You just hand the cash over to the driver. No fare box. He even gives change if necessary. Then go through the turnstyle, take a seat and hold on. The bus drivers are crazy. On our way back to Oranjestad, he even cut through this dirt road parking area just to avoid a traffic jam on the road. But it's a cheap mode of transport and that's a good thing in Aruba where things are quite expensive.

    • We took at 5 minute taxi ride to the town from the hotel and it cost us $8 one way. I live in New York and that is more then what I would pay for a cab ride here in the city. Because of the high prices of taxis we did not go anywhere on the island except the town and to the Aloe Factory. I was going to rent a car but the road signs are confusing and the roads on the north side of the island are very dangerous and unpaved.

    • Busses run frequently between the resort district in Palm Beach and Eagle Beach to the Central Bus Station in Oranjestad. The bus transportation system is good, the busses are brand new, comfortable and mostly airconditioned. A return ticket Oranjestad Resort district will cost you $1,75.

    The bus will take 10 minutes from the resort district to reach Oranjestad. A rise in travelling time will depend on rush hour traffic and the amount of people standing at the bus stops. A bus schedule can be given at the Central Bus Station or you can find a hug bus schedule at the bus stops infront of the hotels.

    Atlantis Submarine Tour

    Sailors aside, how many of you can claim that you have been on a submarine? Probably not too many so this is your chance! Atlantis offers a submarine tour of the waters. You first get picked up at the dock and take a boat ride to deeper waters where you transfer onto the submarine. Yes, you transfer right in mid-water. But don't worry, they dock against each other and the staff help you across via a little "bridge". Then you submerge and off you go on a trek of the seas. It's interesting being underwater and seeing what's down there - reefs, shipwrecks and lots of fish. The sub maneuvers around some tight spots and even gets close to touching the bottom a few times. I have to admit that after the first 20 minutes of the sub ride, I got bored. Everything through the portholes has a green tinge and looks the same. I was more intrigued with the boat-to-sub docking process. But it's still quite an experience that you can brag to your friends when you get home.

    The famous pagara waiting to
    be lit up.
    by Arubasun.
    You must one time experience the fireworks display on the island of Aruba during New Years. Many businesses in Oranjestad often light up the famous "pagara" during the daylight of hours of every December 31st. The biggest pagara is lit up at waterfront Oranjestad. I you really want to feel as if you got rid of the old year, Oranjestad is the place to be.

    The only thing that my husband and I did while we were in Aruba was we took a taxi to the Aloe Factory in the middle of the island. Although we went on our own, we some how got counted in a bus tour that was there and we didn't wind up paying the $6 per person for the tour...Truthfully, I would have been mad if I did have to pay! The tour was sorta interesting but short and really didn't leave a great impression on me.
