Born here. Built for the back roads.
Arubanway started with one beat-up Jeep and a simple idea: show people the Aruba that lives beyond the resort strip.
One Jeep, a tank of gas, and a hunch
Back in 2018, founder Dario was driving cousins and curious tourists out to his favorite hidden beaches on weekends — just for the love of it. Word got around. The cousins turned into a waitlist, the one Jeep turned into a small fleet, and Arubanway was born.
Today we're a fully Aruban-owned outfit, but the spirit hasn't changed a bit. We still run small, we still take the long way around, and we still pull over whenever the water's too blue to drive past.
The people in the driver's seat
Every Arubanway guide grew up on this island — surfing the north coast, exploring Arikok and learning the trails the way locals do. They're storytellers, swimmers and certified in first aid, and they genuinely love showing off home.
Ask them anything: where the iguanas hide, which cave the divi-divi legends come from, or the best spot for a sunset photo. The history, the wildlife, the gossip — it all comes with the ride.
More than a Jeep and a map
Plenty of outfits will drive you around the island. Here's what you get when you ride with us.
Safety first, always
Serviced 4x4s, full briefings and guides trained in first aid and water rescue. We read the surf before every natural-pool stop.
Real local knowledge
Our guides were born here. They know the back trails, the calm coves and the stories behind every ruin and cave.
Flexible & easygoing
Want to linger at a beach or skip a stop? No problem. Small groups mean the day bends to you, not a timetable.
Care for the island
Reef-safe sunscreen, pack-in-pack-out trails and partnerships with Arikok rangers keep Aruba wild for the next ride.
