Don't miss this gem! - We were fortunate enough to spend a half day with Jeff, exploring the beautiful island of Aruba. Jeff has spent his life in Aruba and is very knowledgeable about the many locations we visited or passed by. We were not rushed at the Aloe Factory or the Donkey Sanctuary, and Jeff even gave us a private tour of the museum. We also visited the murals, something that was not in the tour description. Jeff is full of enthusiasm, funny and thoughtful and it felt like we made a friend, even though I wasn't very good at learning the local language! We totally recommend at least a half day with Jeff if you want to see the real Aruba!

Jeff’s half day tour of Aruba was fantastic! - This was a great tour of Aruba! Jeff was a fabulous tour guide! It’s really clear how much he loves his island. He doesn’t cancel no matter how many book his tour on any given day…the two of us were the only ones on the tour and he tailored the day to things we wanted to see and do. We saw most of the things listed in the tour originally but did swap out the donkey sanctuary for another side of the island and the beautiful Baby Beach! The colors of the water there were some of the prettiest shades of blue around! We ended up spending time at another beach there (Eagle Beach, which was closer to the port). Jeff was packed with knowledge about Aruba and it was great learning all about the island. He stopped at a local bakery and bought us one of Aruba’s delicious cheese pies. We were able to see Aruba’s synagogue at our request too. This is a great tour due to its mix of culture, sightseeing, beach fun and a wonderful and knowledgeable guide. You won’t be disappointed with Jeff and his tour!

Real Arubian Experience! - We went as a family of four adults. Jeff was so knowledgeable, so enthusiastic, so proud of Aruba and Arubians. The Aloe farm and factory was fascinating, the donkey sanctuary was a delight, and the archaeological museum will definitely warrant a return visit. Jeff showed us the true colour and flavour of life in Aruba!

Exceptional Experience with Great Guide - We had an exceptional experience with Jeff Classic Tours on our recent visit to Aruba. Jeff was punctual, courteous, and incredibly helpful, which made a big difference as both my husband and his sister-in-law use walkers. Jeff’s kindness and attentiveness allowed us all to feel comfortable throughout the tour.
Jeff provided us with bottled water and introduced us to Pastechi, a delicious local snack—a deep-fried pastry filled with cheese, chicken, or beef. Tasting Aruba’s national snack was a nice touch, adding to the authenticity of the experience.
The tour included several fascinating stops, beginning with the National Archives, where Jeff guided us through Aruba’s rich history. The archives housed a wonderful collection of photographs, capturing the island’s journey over the years. Our next stop, the National Archaeological Museum, was equally engaging. Jeff’s enthusiasm shone through as he shared his knowledge of the exhibits, particularly because he’s a collector himself and regularly attends talks here to stay informed on local developments.
We then visited the Aloe Aruba factory, where we learned about the production of Aruba’s famed aloe products. The tour was informative, and we couldn’t resist picking up a few items from the shop!
Typically, Jeff’s tour includes a donkey sanctuary, but since we’d just visited one on Grand Turk, we asked to go to the Butterfly Sanctuary instead. Jeff kindly accommodated our request, and we paid our own entrance fee since it wasn’t part of the tour. The sanctuary was delightful, filled with butterflies that fluttered around us, and we enjoyed a short talk on their lifecycle.
Jeff’s warmth, knowledge, and flexibility made this one of the best shore excursions we’ve had. I highly recommend Jeff Classic Tours for anyone visiting Aruba!

Unique. - It was a unique tour! One couple, myself and , of course, Jeff. Been coming to Aruba for 21 years and never had a tour like this! Jeff is full of knowledge and personality. We went to some of the planned places, but Jeff let us change our course. Saw places I had never seen. Thanks, Jeff!

Fantastic - Jeff is AMAZING!! He definitely is the heart of Aruba. My wife and I were the only booked tour for that day and Jeff treated us like family. His vibe and energy is contagious. If you want the authentic Aruba tour, please please please book Jeff. We learned so much about the Aruabian way of life and culture. Jeff loves to dance so come with your best dance move. Lol. Thank you Jeff, you are AWESOME!!
