Noord is the area just inland from Palm Beach. It’s home to many vacation rentals, condos and villas, plus restaurants and local neighborhoods a few minutes from the beach. If you’re staying in Noord rather than at a beachfront resort, here’s how to get from Aruba airport to Noord.

Why book the private Navigator

  • Someone waiting for you. Your driver is outside arrivals with your name on a sign, so you skip the taxi line after a long flight.
  • One car for the whole group. Up to 6 guests and 6 suitcases ride together: no splitting into two taxis, no bags on laps.
  • A full-size luxury SUV. A black 2020 Lincoln Navigator with leather seats, air conditioning and room to stretch out, sitting higher on the road. Licensed and insured.
  • Price fixed before you fly. One price per vehicle in US dollars, paid online. No cash, no surprises at the curb.
  • Door to door. Your driver loads and unloads every bag at your hotel or villa door.
  • Less than you’d think per person. For a group of 6, $100 works out to under $17 each (plus the booking fee).

Book your private transfer

Private transfer to Noord

Your driver meets you outside arrivals with your name or group name on a sign, takes your bags and drives your group to your rental’s door in a black 2020 Lincoln Navigator. It’s $100 per vehicle one way or $200 round trip for up to 6 guests and 6 suitcases, paid in full online (plus a booking fee). See availability and book.

Many Noord rentals have no reception desk, so a driver who has your exact address and helps with the luggage saves time after a long flight. Add the full address and any gate code in the booking form.

Going back: Noord to the airport

US-bound flights clear US Customs in Aruba, and the airport asks US-bound passengers to check in three hours before departure. With a round trip booked, we set your pickup time for you. How departure timing works.
