Fabulous island 🏝️ in my travel list Watching from Pakistan 🇵🇰

[@chrisrm18]

You can find full meals anywhere from 5-15 USD easy. Just need to avoid the (fine dining) restaurants in the main areas.

[@carmenjoanabuck6369]

Can I ask where ?

[@BryanRas]

​@@carmenjoanabuck6369 As a local , try these places, Chupa Dede snacks, Ban Ban Cafe, The shack Line near harbor area ( multiple shacks that sell variaty of food and drinks 5 + shacks all diffrent tastes) , Niasca.

[@ReeMoni24]

Glad you said that cause 18 -20 per meal is not that cheap

[@divatesteddivaapproved]

I really appreciate that you chose to stay in accommodations that were locally owned. I've been to Aruba five times and I've always stayed in local b&b's/guesthouses/hostels. Taking the bus is not so bad, but it is much easier if you do rent a car. Your video shots were amazing! It makes me miss the island so much! My favorite beaches are Baby, Rodgers, and Arashi. One place to visit if you're on the island is the Museum of Industry in San Nicolas. It takes you through the industries that helped shape Aruba and provides a lot of history.

[@the_traveling_miss]

Hey! I'm planning to go to Aruba and I'm looking for hostels but I'm having a difficult time finding one. Please refer me to some. Thank you..😊😊

[@tkwanza0228]

This is one of the best videos I've ever seen providing amazing details, aerial footage and places to go. Not like the others filled with a bunch of selfie videos and "what not to do" crap. Excellent and helpful video!!❤❤❤❤

[@KitatheExplorer]

This is the first video I’ve watched where I’ve actually saw someone take the bus. I’m not big on driving when I travel (I live in a city with horrible traffic). Plus, I want more eco friendly transit. Good to know that sometimes it doesn’t stop at certain places.

[@MMSCOTT-mx8dm]

I have been to Aruba many times, and I love it! I'm glad you showed you can go to Aruba on a budget!

[@NomadShifu]

Aruba is one of the picturesque Lesser Antilles islands found just off the coast of Venezuela. It's best known for its dazzling white beaches, but away from the beach, there's fascinating desert-like landscapes, colorful architecture and a vibrant art and social scene to explore.

I’m about to do the same thing buying in the US is a flop

[@michellepetosa7062]

We stayed at the RIU Palace 10 years ago on our 2 week honeymoon and Palm Beach is gorgeous. We loved Aruba and the water is beautiful. Many great Italian restaurants as well. Will be returning in Nov for our 10th Anniversary. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@neftalyalbertsz9135]

Hiii Aruban here! I just wanted to say that Papiamento is a pretty hard language and you pronounced all the names perfectly!! soo thank you for that! And what an amazing video :) Next time try to go out and experience the nightlife and go dancing :DDD

[@UNDEADWXRLORD]

Hi I'm thinking about moving from the Netherlands to Aruba is there work for truckdrivers over there? And how is it for a Dutch person to live there do people get along there well or is there racism against Dutch people also how is the pay over there is it similar to the Netherlands? Thanks for answering my questions in advance :) you live on a beautiful island while I live in rainy Grey Netherlands can't wait to move :D

[@neftalyalbertsz9135]

@@UNDEADWXRLORD hahahah the funny thing is I’m currently living in Amsterdam 😂😂 but it’s difficult to find jobs because of how small the island is and it is a bit overpopulated. But everyone speaks dutch and are very respectful towards dutch people (ofcourse not EVERYONE) as for the pay it is NOTHING like Nederland, usually you get payed way less than what your usually paid in Nederland.

[@UNDEADWXRLORD]

@@neftalyalbertsz9135 I see thanks for the answers brother I appreciate it man

[@celtah99]

Hi I’m planning on visiting Aruba soon, how’s the weather end October? Would you still recommend visiting then? Thanks!

[@Xephyr297]

@@UNDEADWXRLORD hey, i dont know if you already did it, but for a dutch person (who hasnt been born there, nor his parents) it might be difficult to get a work visa, so you should try to get one, in my experience the racism in aruba is relatively low, because aruba is very multicultural, and about pay, i wouldnt expect a lot, the salaries, compared to the netherlands, are quite low, so you should look into where you want to work for truckdrivers.

[@EdCNJ]

I’ll be back in April!!! 🇦🇼 Renting a car definitely is the way to go on the Island. My favorite beaches are Rodgers, Eagle and Arashi. Sites to see: Hooiberg, Sereo Colorado Natural Bridge, Casbari Rock Formation, Tanki de Alto Vista and exploring the north coast with a 4x4 vehicle. Also, effective February 3rd, 2022 visitors to the island no longer need to test if they are fully vaccinated (Initial shot or shots along with a booster is considered fully vaccinated). Of course that could change depending on future developments and you still need to test on your return home depending what destination it is.

[@nevafranzi1761]

Where Is Better have the hotel?Eagle beach or Oranjestad?

[@yolandacroes5491]

Unlike for instance Curaçao, all beaches in Aruba are public, including those with hotels or houses in front. They are accessible for everybody and you don’t need to pay any fees. You might have to pay for beaches in the national park but you pay for entry to the park, not the beaches.

[@reelhappytravellers2691]

I just want to say wow. this is some great editing.Being around you is like being on a happy little vacation. Congratulations on such an amazing achievement, Good job...

[@dustyroads204]

Very nicely done!! More memories for me on this cold Canadian morning…….🥶 🇨🇦 We used depalm tours for our excursion around the island and they were awesome….. I see now that’s where the name came from…… Stay safe!!

My husband and I went to Aruba for our Honeymoon!! It was my 3rd time and my husband's 1st. He loved it!! Will be going back!

[@adrianfonseca6774]

I love all your videos especially because you mention the cost of the hotels and food, thank you for doing that. This gives us an idea of what to pay.

[@lloydfrancis9149]

My Lord my mother was born in the island of Aruba before heading to England and having me it's so beautiful the Caribbean is beautiful

[@lukasnylander203]

You can stay for free at the donkey sanctuary in exchange for 20 hours of work per week. Super nice apartments and a nice way to get in touch with other tourists and locals, you also get to borrow a car from the sanctuary to use whenever you like! Most importantly, you get to spend time and cuddle with the donkeys:)

[@NormanAllan53]

We really enjoyed Aruba in the weeks just before COVID hit in early 2020. During that trip we went over the neighboring Bonaire. There we found even better beaches and it was twice as clean. The downtown area much more interesting if you are interested in meeting the residents. The only real issues with the ABC islands is cost. Expensive to get there and affordable accommodations really tough to find. An adventure all the same.

[@odcaruba]

.... 'even better beaches"???? Beaches in Bonaire???? Are you sure you were in Bonaire?

[@ionknowtbhanne6081]

@@odcaruba on god I've been living in Bonaire for 6 years now and I hate it here,beaches are def not it

[@antonm5492]

When you want you can very cheap stay at Aruba, the way is book an apartment on Airbnb on the middle of the island but you need than a rental car but that apartment including rental car is a lot of cheaper than stay on Palm Beach without rental car and the restaurants outside the touristic area are also a lot of cheaper than in the touristic area

[@ABC-ABC1234]

@@ionknowtbhanne6081 what you doing there if I may ask? Not much to see in Bonaire...

Thank you for highlighting baby beach as a beach for non-confidant swimmers. That's me. That was exactly what I needed. Overall the video was very helpful and had good tips.

[@WilliamFluery]

This video was posted 4 hours ago so either the video was shot pre-haircut or Chris’ hair grows incredibly fast…I also found the price of the fish dishes surprisingly higher than the others. It seems there would be an abundance of fish available at a cheaper price. I always enjoy what you produce. Thank you for sharing.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Yes it was strange that fish was more expensive than other meat e.t.c

[@tressakortlever5032]

I am confused here. The video says it was posted a year ago and I thought you were in the Philippines? It says travel for 2023? Seems misleading by changing the title to update an old video. Especially filmed during covid as things have changed every where now.

Hi guys, another beautiful and helpful video, on Aruba now, today we got the bus to Arashi, actually walked the road to California lighthouse and back to the beach, also saw the Dunes, sure it was tough but with a few water stops, and to check out the amazing cacti and lizards, was all good, Arashi a super beautiful beach and turquoise sea x

I’ve been to Aruba twice and going back again this year , we stay at bucuti and Tara it’s our favorite place in the world honestly. We tell ourselves we are going there to relax and eat good. So I wouldn’t say it’s not expensive but it truly is one happy island . Also fine dining is obviously gonna be expensive but you can find meals from 10-20$ all around the island.

[@johnguertin4462]

Heading to Aruba on 12 Feb 2022 with my wife, son, and his girlfriend. Been there 9 times previous. Love Baby Beach, downtown, and the California lighthouse. Also, Boca Catalina and Antilla wreck for snorkeling. We will be staying at LaCabana Beach and Racquet Club. Love, love, love Aruba. People are super nice!

We'll rent a car which is nice as this is my 1st time there! Very expensive so that's why we'll be taking some food with us to cook. And save eating out on occasions or when we're snorkeling.

It must be ten years ago now but we stayed at Divi Beach and had a wonderful time there. Like you our fave place was also Baby beach as it wasn’t so busy being a little out of the way, but perfect for just chillin and playing with the kids. Nice to hear that Big Mamas is still going strong, though I must admit, the prices were a tad on the high side which I guess is only to be expected when most produce is imported. Thanks for the lovely trip down memory lane.

[@howardnedd6300]

These are not dutch all dutch buildings. The earliest settlers to Aruba built their houses with ‘caliche’, a substance found on the island, or with interlocking coral rocks, found on its shores. The shape was a simple room with small windows and a roof that rose to a peak in the center to allow heat to rise and help keep the space cool. Additions were often built side by side with similar shapes.

Groceries are a little expensive but as you said, dinners are comparable to other places. Make sure to wear plenty of sunscreen as the breeze makes it seem cooler.
