[@johnny5173]

Awesome drone footage!!!!! I appreciate the information!!!! GREAT VIDEO!!!!

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Thank you so much John!

[@charlieguidarellisr.5695]

Thank You Hyro.I do wish I knew all of these tips before I rented a UTV and went off roading on the the North shore. Were are UTV broke down and we had horrible phone service . We were stuck for over 3 hours before someone came for us. Thank God we backed a cooler so we had BEER WATER and Food.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Sorry about the bad experience. I know they often break down (it happened with me years ago too). If you are in a group, help can get there a bit quicker.

[@Gibfenez]

Hydro, thanks for these videos. Great advise always but most importantly they keep us in Aruba when we can’t be there. Love Aruba always. Wonderful channel. You are making a difference! Thanks.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Glad you like them :-) thank you for your kind message!

Another awesome video Hyro. I’ll definitely have to explore the island more when I visit again.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Thanks 🙂 it’s sure worrh it!

[@carleanoscarroll7064]

Great video Hyro. I never drove a 4x4 vehicle but after watching your video I would like to drive one. Thank u for all the safety tips.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

You should Carleanos 💫I think that is one of the cool things there is to do here on the island🏝✈️Well worth it🏜

[@mikeoharrow166]

We love exploring the north shore, great video and info!

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Thanks Mike!

[@emptynestexplorers]

Wish we had time to do this during our days in Aruba. Maybe next time 😉 Great informative video Hyro and great to see Marleen back in the videos! 👍

[@paulhofstede3247]

Cool, zo'n jeep tour. Je komt op iets meer ruige plekken. En afgezien daarvan is het gewoon stoer in zo'n 4x4 te rijden 😎. Jullie trip zag er gezellig uit Hyro 👍

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Heel gezellig was het :-) Het is zeker leuk om een 4x4 te huren (zelfs voor 2 dagen) en de eiland rond rijen.

[@EdCNJ]

@11:40 what area is that? Looks interesting with the Palm Trees.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Hello my friend yes that is the Daimari. I used to go there a lot as a kid.

[@EdCNJ]

@@LetsgowithHyro Ah yes! That's the Rancho Daimari. I didn't recognize it at first. Nice 👍🏻

[@SchmoopsAdventures]

What’s your white truck? Is that a Jimney? Can we take our own UTV to the park and ride one of the tour bus jeeps into the park?

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Yes it's a Suzuki Jimney and does very well when offroading! You could take the UTV till the park's entrance but not further. The tour-jeeps can take you further but you will have to book this before getting there. The park itself does not handle that.

[@bnuttsgee]

Thanks! going next week and renting a Jimny since we can't get them in the US . Any fishing spot recommendations ?

[@LetsgowithHyro]

The coast left of Tres Trapi is popular.

[@vincentbartlett6879]

Thank you Hyro your videos. It really keeps me updated on Aruba... I have a question for you, Is Metal Detecting permitted on the beaches of Aruba? Thank you

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Thank you too Vincent! Yes the metal detectors are allowed.

What camera do you use for this video. I'm sorry if you already answered this but I am heading down 11/12/22 and would love to get video of this quality. Maybe I will bump into you that week. Thanks in advance.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Hi there, yes I used the GoPro10 for this one. Hope to see you, safe trip!

[@bridgetbangerter3230]

I download offline google maps. That really helps

[@jeannoelgaudette5059]

Hello Hyro! We will be in Aruba November 7 so did you receive a date for beach cleaning day? We appreciate your video and when you will go to Santa-Cruz let me know I will invite you for beer! I will give you some French lessons, so we are Canadian peoples that speak French and English.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Hello Jean, we do not have a date for it yet and it will probably start next year. Reason is I do not have the logistics for it right now. Let me know when you are settled here and perhaps we can get together😊☀️🏜Would love some French lessons. It is said that my last name comes from France.

[@jeannoelgaudette5059]

No problem I will Hyro

[@johnmartin1954]

Great video I’m not a fan of ATV vehicles I always take an enclosed vehicle Jeep or Toyota RAV4 , etc ……..people doing four wheeling should as a number one rule and respect of local people take it easy on the speed you drive . The dust clouds that these 20 or so ATV’s (tour)make is troublesome for local people living near these dirt roads . The dust covers their homes so people should keep a decent speed when traveling through local roads to their destination. Peace out !

[@LetsgowithHyro]

John... I couldn't have said it any better myself!! Prefer the enclosed ones too. Thanks for your input.

[@ewoudm6441]

Danki Hyro, not a fan of ATV's on the island. All these tours are great sources of income but the noise and pollution do more harm than good. The north coast has a unique ecosystem, the government should try to protect it for future generations. The mountain bike (electric) is a great way to explore the area, even an early morning walk or a late afternoon hike. Horseback riding is a good alternative as well. The north coast is a unique part of the island and I hope it will stay that way! Saludos, ayo

[@LetsgowithHyro]

I agree! More should be done to protect this area and the points you mention would be a great starting point!! Thanks for watching🏜💫

Thanks Dieneke🙌🏼🏜

[@joshuabritt5677]

why isn't KZbin showing my comment? Try a company Arubiana if you want to go off road on your own.. They have a great phone app with a map and your GPS location. There is also site locations and descriptions. Great app not to get lost if you're new to Aruba. Great video brother man. Tell Ms. Marleen hi.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Hey brother, I just noticed this comment which didn’t show up in my box either. Normally all new comments pop up there so I know which ones to answer. Either way, so weird. Good to know about the Arubiana app, I do believe I’ve hear of it. Will tell Marleen hi, same for Pagie🙂🍹cheers!

[@BigRedDad1970]

We have a 4x4 Jeep rental for 8-hours when in Aruba. We plan to visit several places. Do you have recommendations on places to visit? We are not doing the Natural Pool because of the amount of time it takes to get there.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Hello Scott, nice to hear about your upcoming trip. The normal route would be to drive along the north shore starting at the lighthouse. It will lead you all the way to the old Natural Bridge. From there you will have to decide to either continue via Andicuri beach, Blackstone beach and back OR at the Natural bridge, return via the road and enter the national park leading up to the Baby/Rodgers beach. Btw, the Andicuri route is very difficult even for a 4x4 but you can try it if you want.

[@cindycosby5993]

Where is the black sand beach at?

[@LetsgowithHyro]

After the Andicuri Beach.

[@kaylavonn2749]

I’m going to Aruba next week and I want to explore the north shoreline. Where can we rent a Jeep for the day? Also if we go the tour route do you have any good tours you can recommend. I kinda wanna drive the Jeep but I also don’t want to get stuck anywhere especially if my phone won’t have much signal. I’m not sure what the best decision would be. Jeep or tour ?

[@joshuabritt5677]

For the jeep tours ABC jeep tours is a lot of fun. It's has a very fun and entertaining group of guides. For a jeep tour more custom and a bit more upscale there is Around Aruba tour. They offer a private tour in a cab jeep or soft top. As it goes for rental jeeps I've only rented one jeep from more 4 less. It was a nice vehicle at the time. Hope this helped and safe travels to one happy island.

[@kaylavonn2749]

@@joshuabritt5677 thank you. This was really helpful

[@joshuabritt5677]

@@kaylavonn2749 No problem. You'll love Aruba. Safe travels.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Hello Kaylavonn, sorry for the late reply here, I've had so many messages lately as was on limited connectivity this past week+ I believe Joshua kindly answered your questions in the meantime. I also recommend Top Drive which is good also for a Jeep. Technically you could go wrong with both but the good thing about the tours is that they will take of everything should you get stuck or if the vehicle has a breakdown for example. If you want more an adventure, go for the ATV/UTV. If you want something nicer and a smoother ride go for the Jeeps. Enjoy the island & stay safe.

[@kaylavonn2749]

@@LetsgowithHyro I’m actually back home now. We ended up driving our little rental very slow and hiking the rest of the way. I did see a lot of Top Drive Jeeps. I’ll definitely be renting one for my next visit.

[@gunior1]

Pretty funny that I'm actually renting the same exact car "Jimmy" from TopDrive. I'll be on Aruba from Oktober to November. Was this automatic btw?

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Really? Haha cool 🙂🙌🏼 Yes it was automatic.

[@sommasculpture]

Can you manage in an small/midsize SUV that is only front wheel drive instead of 4WD/AWD?

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Depends on the road. I would not go to the natural pool with it because the road is very bad. The rest of Arikok is certainly doable.

[@sommasculpture]

@@LetsgowithHyro We're probably not doing that one because we have a toddler. Just want to be able to cruise around to most of the natural areas without having to worry about a blowout. Thanks for the reply
