My name is Osman and I am a professional certified tour guide with knowledge of Aruba's history and culture. It will be me my pleasure to give you the most fun and informative private tours around the island. My mission is for you to leave the island with amazing memories of Aruba. I was born in Curacao but I was raised in the Netherlands. I came to Aruba in 1986 at 8 years old and forever fell in love with this Amazing and Friendly One Happy Island. I always love to interact with people so I started to work at Tony Romas Aruba as a waiter at 16 years old. As my passion grew to work in the hospitality Industry I decided to follow my passion. After finishing my education in Hospitality and Tourism Management I worked several years as a Food and beverage Manager at some International Restaurants, but got the best training and Education working at the Ritz Carlton Aruba. After receiving my Tour Guide permit by The Minister of Transport I started doing tours Part Time and eventually made it my Full time work and passion. I like to make each Private Tour a memorable one by showing points of interest of the visitors ( local sigars, Rum Tasting, Animal Sanctuary, Art Murals, Museums, Aloe factory, beaches, local restaurants, Snorkeling etc. ) I Hope to hear from you soon or better yet to see you in person soon in Aruba!!!

This tour is a must see of the Happy Island Aruba! Let me take you on a Island tour to my personal favorite sites of Aruba. I would like to share with you the colorful local history as well as the beautiful local Art of the Island which means so much for the Artists of Aruba. Showing their talent and the history of the Island is my true passion. We will also try some local food and taste of the Island while enjoying the amazing scenery of Aruba. Join me on this private experience where I'd love to showcase my home city so you can get to know our culture like a local!! Please note that all tours are based on your time, schedule and specific needs. Feel free to message me.
Such a lovely day spent with Osman seeing the beautiful sights of Aruba. Osman's vehicle was large, spacious and very comfortable. Osman was delightfully kind and full of great facts about Aruba. He is accommodating, welcoming and knowledgeable. This is a perfect way to see some of the main sights of the island!
Oz was great. Took us all over the island in his 14 passenger bus. Highly recommend him.
Our travel agent recommended ToursByLocals for our 1st trip to Aruba. We chose Osman since his tour took us to all the sites we had wanted to visit. I cannot say enough about the tour & the history Osman gave as we traveled around the entire island. Per our request, he even stopped at a local diner so we could enjoy a delicious Aruban meal. Osman's kindness, humor and knowledge made our day perfect! We recommend anyone who is interested in sightseeing and learning Aruban history, to book with Osman. You will enjoy every moment of your tour!
Wonderful tour with Osman! We took a full island tour in May 2025. Osman picked us up at our condo and took us to the major tourist sites from north to south: the California lighthouse, Alto Vista chapel, Casibari rock formations, Bushiribana gold mine ruins, donkey sanctuary, San Nicolas, and finally, swimming at Baby Beach. Even though we saw a lot, the pace was relaxed, and we could spend as much or as little time at each site as we pleased. The tour is also fully customizable, so if you want to add or skip something, just ask! Osman is a great guide! He is knowlegeable about Aruba's history, places to eat & visit, and is helpful, polite, and friendly. Overall, highly recommended.
NO NEED TO LOOK ANY FURTHER......Osman is your guy. We made arrangements of our family of 8 to be picked us up at the cruise port. We stopped at all the listed places (and more!) We were glad to have passed through San Nicolas to see its vibrant murals. We had a fantastic lunch off the beaten path. Osman was extremely knowledgeable, it was a true pleasure. Highly recommend.
Osman was so awesome and would highly recommend him for a tour of Aruba !
I will pick you up at the time and place of your choice. I am very flexible and can change the Tour according to your needs. On this particular day we will start your tour at the North side of the Island visiting the California Lighthouse Arashi beach Bushiribana gold mine ruins and the Casibari Rock formations. then we go to the South side of the Island visiting the Donkey Sanctuary We can stop buy a quick local lunch and snacks on the way In San Nicolas, you'll have time to take pictures of the beautiful Street mural local Art Paintings in the Downtown Area. * This tour can be customized upon request, please contact me.
