      "answer": "No. The Natural Pool is not a stop on the van tour. We also offer [private Jeep tours](#q352) that can take you there."
    },
    {
      "id": "q041",
      "question": "Can we visit the caves and swim at Baby Beach on the same tour?",
      "answer": "Yes. The two caves and Baby Beach can be combined, but on a 4-hour tour they would normally be the two main visits, with limited time for anything else. Pickup location, park access and how long you want to swim all matter. Choose a longer tour for a more relaxed day, and visit the park early enough to meet its entry and cave-visiting hours."
    },
    {
      "id": "q145",
      "question": "What if our cruise ship arrives late or skips Aruba?",
      "answer": "No tour charge. If you’ve already paid, we’ll refund it. Please let us know promptly. If the ship is delayed, we will try to move the pickup to a workable time. If we cannot accommodate the revised arrival, there is no tour charge; if payment has already been taken, it is refunded. Please share the updated port schedule and all-aboard time so we can plan safely."
    },
    {
      "id": "q164",
      "question": "Where do cruise guests meet the guide?",
      "answer": "Usually at the Citgo gas station beside the Oranjestad cruise terminal. We’ll send precise instructions after booking. It is a short walk from the terminal area. We send the guide’s contact details the day before. Different berths and exits can affect the walk; contact us beforehand if you need a closer or accessible meeting arrangement."
    },
    {
      "id": "q195",
      "question": "Is the van wheelchair accessible with a ramp or lift?",
      "answer": "Our standard vans do not have a wheelchair ramp or lift, and a guest cannot travel seated in a wheelchair inside them. The standard tour requires getting in and out of the van, and many natural stops have uneven ground. Contact us before booking if you have mobility needs; a specially planned low-walking outing may be possible, but wheelchair-adapted transport is not currently a confirmed service."
    },
    {
      "id": "q196",
      "question": "Can you carry a folding wheelchair, walker or mobility scooter?",
      "answer": "Please contact us with the folded dimensions, weight, passenger count and the assistance you need before bringing a mobility aid. Cargo space is limited and the vans have no ramp or lift. We have not published capacity limits for wheelchairs, scooters or heavy equipment, so they must be assessed individually. The usual tour requires guests to board the van without being lifted."
    },
    {
      "id": "q210",
      "question": "How much luggage and beach gear can we bring?",
      "answer": "Small day bags are fine. Space for larger beach gear depends on the vehicle and how many people are traveling. Do not bring suitcases, bulky equipment or several large items unless we have agreed to them in advance. Tell us the number and size of the items so we can confirm they fit safely without using required passenger seats."
    },
    {
      "id": "q287",
      "question": "Which languages can our guide speak?",
      "answer": "Our guides speak English and Dutch, and most also speak Spanish and Papiamento. Tell us your preferred language in advance so we can match you with a suitable guide. A request for a particular language or specialist topic should be confirmed rather than assumed from the booking form."
