Aruba has a different dialect. if i would visit the place it will be hard for me to understand their language. it would be a hindrance for a good travel, so does it mean i need to have a translator?

Well it would depend on what kind of communication you are trying to do. If tits for casual visit then I believe you no longer need a translator but if it is business or something to do with the legal system then it is a quite a must to have a translator.

I don't think we need a translator in Aruba. They could very well communicate with us through English language. Why do you need a translator? I mean, if you are going to ask directions, I think that wouldn't be necessary.:)

You don't need a translator in Aruba. They know how to speak good English and Spanish as well.

They also speak Dutch since this is a Dutch territory :). There is a mix of languages on the island and it is very easy to find someone who understands you. No worries mate!
