Royal Aruba Aloe is a company in Aruba that cultivates and produces aloe-derived products. It also contains its own aloe museum.[1]

A tour of the museum and factory provides insight into the Aruba aloe production process, along with the 160-year history of aloe cultivation in Aruba.[2]

The factory holds complimentary tour guides in languages ranging from English, Dutch, Spanish and Papiamento (Aruba's native language) every 15 minutes. The museum is open from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm on Mondays to Fridays. On Saturdays, the museum is open from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. The museum is closed on Sundays. There is a walking tour that includes the aloe cutting room, the testing lab, the filling room, and even packing and storage.
