Matthew was our guide and he was great. They got us to the natural pool early, which was awesome because it was way overcrowded by the time we left.
The tour is a lot of time driving through the Aruban countryside. First stop at the natural pool was about an hour long. Then the next 2 stops were short (15 minutes or so). So you’re spending about 1.5 hours driving around, mostly on rugged terrain seeing the large part of the island that is preserved and untouched by development. The scenery is beautiful.
My only suggestion would be to add a second place to stop and swim. We passed lots of cool looking beaches away from the tourist crowds. Could have done without the lighthouse stop.
