We get a lot of questions regarding transportation possibilities on Aruba. "Should we rent a car?", or "Is public transport on Aruba safe and reliable?", "We saw minivans operating like public busses... are those minivans official?".
Driving is on the right in Aruba, so there won't be many problems for North Americans, Europeans and most South Americans when zipping around the island. We created a page Traffic Signs & Rules so you can prepare yourself when you rent a car, motorcycle or a bike.
You'll find a stretch mall full of car rental agencies at the airport, in a building across from the
arrival area. We suggest you place a reservation for your car in advance. This will

stand in line, only to find out that the car you want is no longer available.
