Exploring Aruba on Our Own Terms: An Unforgettable UTV Adventure

January 18, 2024

Aruba is an adventurer's paradise; to us, the landscape is similar to Arizona, but with an ocean. During our recent trip, we decided to experience the island on a UTV (Utility Terrain Vehicle) from Offroad Evolution Aruba. We have been visiting Aruba since 2005 and each year we say we want to rent a UTV but with a short stay, it never seemed to fit into our schedule. Staying 35 days this year allowed us time to make it happen!

 

Opting out of a guided tour meant we had the flexibility to linger longer in places that captivated us. We navigated through the rugged terrain, marveling at the breathtaking scenery. Aruba's diverse landscape, from its beaches to its rocky desert, was fun to explore on four wheels.

The team at Offroad Evolution Aruba went above and beyond in customer service. Not only did they provide us with a top-notch UTV, but they also helped set up our phone without Wi-Fi and gave us access to the same trail maps used by the tours. This gesture ensured we never felt lost and could explore with confidence.

One of the most memorable moments was getting caught in a fun, unexpected 45-minute downpour. It added an element of adventure and laughter to our journey, as we splashed through puddles and the rain added a fresh, exhilarating feel to the air. We got so soaked that our shoes were filled with water. We couldn't capture video or photos because it was pouring so hard that we didn't want to ruin our phones.

Our UTV adventure in Aruba was more than just a ride; it was a journey filled with freedom, excitement, and discovery. We navigated our own path, experienced the island authentically, and made unforgettable memories.

For anyone looking to explore the undeveloped, rugged terrain of Aruba, doing it in a UTV is an experience we highly recommend!
