Snorkeling & relaxing - Seeing a barracuda at Baby beach, and all of the other fish was the most memorable part. The snorkeling there was great! Mangel Alto was so unique looking, unfortunately the high winds prevented us from getting out to the snorkeling spot but it was still worth it. Just riding around in the bus & seeing parts of Aruba was really wonderful. Our guides, Alex & Gary, were nice & funny.

Trip to the beaches - The beaches are very beautiful, what I thought was bad was because I asked for a tour with a Spanish speaking guide and he only spoke English, only the transport driver spoke Spanish which helped a lot, but I was still a little upset because during the trip the guide It explained several things about the history of the place that I couldn't understand and there was no way for the driver to explain it to me as he obviously had to pay attention to the traffic. Stops are 1 hour at Mangel Halto and 2 hours at Baby Beach

No Snorkel Beach Day - The part I remember most is that I signed up to see these beaches and be able to snorkel. BUYER BEWARE they do not have equipment for everyone. The guy blamed it on the company but someone should do a count with paying customers and the equipment on the bus. They should guarantee a refund if you can not Snorkel. If you want to see the beaches and not worry about snorkeling, go ahead it is a nice day trip. Also, you do not need beach shoes for the first beach, you can walk in through the sand. First beach 45 minutes, second beach 2 hours. They lacked equipment for six people.

Nice. Beautiful to experience. - It was fun. We only received little explanation when snorkeling. For the price it was a nice experience. Maybe a little more explanation with snorkeling.

Baby beach Time is a LIE- NOT 3 HOURS- it is only 1.5 hours. - The description of this package is DISHONEST. We had only 1.5 hours at baby beach, and we specifically picked it because it VERY CLEARLY says 3 hours. If you think about it, it is really more like 1 hr 15 minutes because you have to be ready to go on the bus. I would not have booked this trip if I had known, because then it feels like a waste of time to go all the way to Baby Beach. I imagine that it is delibrerately not including the travel time to baby beach to avoid scaring people away. I did not say anything at the time because I thought perhaps I read the event description wrong. But I did not. I had no problem whatsoever wtih the tour guides, with the exception that the bus pickup was 20 minutes late- it sounded like some guests weren't ready on time according to the company I called-- so that is a bit of a mystery. The experience was overall nice if you ignore the timing issue- we were provided water bottles and snorkel gear. The Mangel Halto was in a mangrove and pleasant but I would rather have gone straight to Baby Beach for more time. Baby Beach Snorkeling was wonderful. I appreciated that one of the tour guides was in the water with us with a flotation device. Take note for those who aren't swimmers and want to snorkel that there is no life vest. This was fine for me but not my boyfriend. For snorkeling, at the back of Baby Beach is a sudden drop off in the ocean floor, creating an avenue that is teeming with many species of fish. The ground rises back up to some rocks, and he was able to stand on them while in the water and use the snorkel gear. The many fish were constant- I don't know if it is always like this, but that was great.
