  • Even if you are familiar with ARUBA, you might still have never heard of the old and cozy WILHELMINA STRAAT a street full nice restaurants and historical buildings. In this video I take you for a walk along this street and explain about it.

    Thanks for these fantastic videos! I have been regularly vacationing in Aruba since the mid 1980's, so it feels like my second home. A lot has changed in that time, but it's still my favorite place.

      Thank you too :-) The 80's was my favorite time to have been on the island. Life was much more simple and less crowded.

    Just discovered your channel. We’ve been coming to Aruba since 1987 and own at Playa Linda but every few years will stay a couple extra nights downtown. We just walked Wilhelmina Str from the Renaissance to the Wilhelmina Restaurant this past November and sat in that lovely park while waiting for our reservation. Love your tour!

      Nice to hear and Welcome :-) I get the feeling that this street will get some development in the coming years. It's truly full of potential!

      @@LetsgowithHyro We’re still looking for a good Indonesian restaurant. Years ago we ate at The Floating Bali and then Warung Jawa’s. Both are long gone. We tried the Surinamese place up from the high rises but its not the same. Any suggestions?

    This walk brings me back to the 90's! I bought my first snorkeling set at Mario's and would frequently dine at Que Pasa! A beautiful street, showing the variety in architecture on Aruba! Masha danki Hyro! Take care, bro

    Comment from Dave Polson was exactly what I was going to say. I've been behind the Renaissance Mall area, but never up this street. Thanks, Hyro, if I get back to Aruba, I'll have to check it out

    Great tour Hyro!! The house where your great grandfather lived, wow your Aruba roots run deep. So many interesting buildings there to see. You also showed us some rather interesting looking restaurants along the way and it would be nice to have a look inside.

    • @LetsgowithHyro
