It's probably the same as in any other country like making sure that your cab is a real cab and be weary of places that cater exclusively to tourists. They may want to overcharge you because you're not a local.
How could you tell whether the cab is real or not? I suggest, you better search it in the internet to know what is the prices of transportation in Aruba. You have to be familiar with the place before you go there.
I think we could identify which would be a real cab or not. If it has plate number, stickers and all of those things then, I think it would be a safe cab. Just ask other people so they could help you. By the way, how would you know if it is a tourist traps?
Going along with my last thread, is there anything that is overrated or a tourist trap that I should stay away from?
I don't know if there would be some specific tourists trap in Aruba. The better thing we should do is to ask assistance from the authorities only. Where could be the most crowded area in the island?
