## Corrections to claims found elsewhere

- The cheapest jeep tour price is not always the cheapest day: several tours add the Arikok fee ($20-25 per person) at check-in.
- The Arikok fee is $22 per adult and free for under-17s at the gate; a flat $25 per person charged by a tour is the operator's figure.
- UTV and ATV tours cannot drive into Arikok National Park; a Natural Pool visit needs a 4x4 jeep, a horse or a hike.
- A swim at the Natural Pool is never guaranteed: it closes when waves top the rim.
- The 'Full-Day Aruba History and Must-See Landmarks Tour' uses an air-conditioned vehicle and does not visit Arikok or the Natural Pool.
