Alto Vista Chapel

A great visit why we were on vacation in Aruba. I stronly recomend renting a vehicle in which we prearranged before we arrived on the Ruby Princess Cruise ship, the transition was Very Easy! Smart Rents was great, just keep in mind, make sure their driver that picks you up from smart rents, knows your at the port Gate 5, to which is the only gate the cruise ships dock at anyway. When you walk to the gate which is not more than 10 min walk, bring an umbrella, as there are not many trees why you wait for your driver to pick you up to retrieve your car for the day! :-) Wait at the gate!!! Do not get discouraged he will come walking up and meet you there, then he will take you over to a parking lot which is another 5 minute walk over to where the rent cars are parked, he will go over the terms with you, and you'll be on your way for the day around the island!! We had a great time, the car-SUV was great, the cost was about the same as the cost of an excursion for one person on a cruise ship, so basically you get 2 for 1 cost wise! Saved a 100.00!! By renting a car, and was able to do what we wanted, and stop for as long as we wanted at beaches and sites, and was able to do things without the cramped feeling of a cruise ship tour bus. The chappel was a lovely stop, we walked down the path behind, and was able to see the lovely beach below, soaked in the sun, did a photo op, and was on our way down the island and around. I wanted to add about the rent car, get an SUV, dont waste your money on a jeep, and dont get discouraged! Use google maps, was very easy to get around and you just drop the car off where he picks you up at the parking area where he walks you over to at the port which is a 10 minute walk back to your ship, easy peasy!
