The disappearance of Natalee Holloway, an Alabama teenager, during a class trip to the island, is extremely unusual. Crime against tourists is almost nonexistent on this beautiful and peaceful island, and travelers can spend their time here without fear. It is always wise to take the precautions one would take in any major city, such as avoiding getting into cars with strangers, overtly displaying wealth, and entering bad areas of the city at night.

When visiting any place on vacation travelers should be careful, and Aruba is no exception. Still, this peaceful island has many visitors who return yearly without incident.
