# Aruba Atlantis Submarine Tour

**Guidekin's take:** A real passenger submarine that dives well below the surface off the coast for an hour under water, air conditioned and open to children from age four or a set height. Food, drinks and hotel pickup are not included, and the cabin feels tight for some. 4.6 from 1270 reviews at €137 per person.

## Overview

Yes! It's a real submarine. Take an exciting voyage to the depths of 130 feet below the Caribbean sea. Join Atlantis Submarines, voted Aruba's most outstanding attraction, on an unforgettable guided tour aboard the largest passenger submarine fleet in the world.
