DON'T HESITATE!
I purchased the book a day before my Aruba trip, read it on the plane and actually kept it in our rental car for consistant reference. This was not my first time using a Frommer's travel guide for the purpose of having the best time possible in an unknown place. As far as I'm concerned - these travel books tell it like it is, good or bad. I can't imagine anyone giving this book less than 5 stars! Buy it! .


A must!
My husband Alan stated he didn't feel like a novice coming into this lovely tropical paradise thanks to these guides. We found Frommer's and Fodor's travel books to possess the best of information on Aruba.

The books were pretty right on when it came to restaurant prices, only a few had varied their charges. One restaurant was a nice surprise as we were expecting to pay twice as much.

To add to the information, besides the buses running to the capital city of Oranjestad, they also have $1. 00 taxis and these vans function well when you don't want to wait for the next bus. Oranjestad is a must visit for shopping, eating and touring.

The books also didn't include the native poverty that exists beyond the resorts and touring areas. Few Arubans own a decent hacienda. This was a shock to my husband and me as we were expecting to see average living styles.

Great Reference Book
I refered to it several times while I was there. I purchased this book and have used it on two vacations to Aruba. Maps are very helpful, as are the restaurant reviews!.
