Such an amazing experience with knowledgeable staff. They took the guess work out of this experience and made it amazing. For my daughter in law, she was fearful of going in the water but after Franklyn’s explanation we were able to convince her to get in. She does not regret it! :) they provided transportation to and from our air bnb and provided beach umbrellas and chairs for us to linger on the beach after we were done. Food was top notch and the staff were so accommodating! 10/10 definitely recommend.

Joined the Catamaran Party Cruise while on a cruise ship stop in Puerto Plata. They picked us up from the port as promised and drove us to the boat. The snorkeling was just ok, a smaller reef. It was a solid 30 minute drive to the boat from the cruise ship port. However, the overall experience was a blast. All of the tour guides were a lot of fun and very helpful. The BBQ lunch was amazing. In addition to snorkeling the boat has a diving board and slide that everyone enjoyed. Highly recommend.

This was an amazing tour. Since booking, it has been amazing. As soon as we booked, Lotta was very communicative. The day that we arrived at the port, Richard was already waiting for us. We were a party over eight so the minivan was just for us then when we got to the tour location, there were two guides ready to take us out. The guides were amazing and funny. They took tons of pics underwater which was a great perk. To make it more amazing was that they knew it was my birthday and they surprised us at the beach with an authentic Dominican cake. Highly recommended tour.

Booked this excursion outside of the cruise line. Directions very clear on where and when to meet. Guides were organized and on time. We had 3 kids ages 7,13, and 14 with only 2 adult so the staff was able to take our third child in the buggy with them. We were very grateful for this! The tour was a total of 2 hours on the buggy. We had a stop at a small gift shop and tried some Dominican coffee, chocolate, and mamajuana. We then headed to a small beach area. The tour was very fun and muddy! You will get very dirty and soaking wet so be prepared. Lots of fun and would do again!

DO NOT BOOK. Def not worth the price… u mainly drive on either the main rd thru a neighborhood or on the side of the main road in a trash filled ditch… u go thru 1 “mud “ experience.. but it’s really more trash then anything.. and the beach isn’t anything special. The trip was 90mins in total and that’s with 30 mins at the beach to eat.

I definitely wouldn’t have gone in this excursion if I understood what it was really like. You are not doing a dune buggy in the jungle you are driving through the literally street water of Puerto Plata. There are some more rural areas that you drive through as well but then you’re at risk for getting cow poo flying in your face as you’re driving through the mud. It’s more unsanitary and disgusting than like fun dirty mud. There is one part where you drive through a pond and where you go to the beach and can get some local food. I will say this is probably the best part of it.

We had a great time. The crew were very friendly and treated us well. I would recommend to anyone that loves adventure. You will get dirty and covered in mud so dress accordingly.

Not good snorkeling. First spot was basically 2 rocks about 12 feet down and they were feeding the fish white bread to attract them. The second was back in Sosua bay and in 20+ feet of water. This has more fans but hard to see given depth. They kept us tight knot and the flailers and kickers abounded. I will give them credit that they actually sailed most the way back which was preferable to the 1 hr bus ride to start the trip.

Fun, fun, fun! The water was spectacular. All of the different marine life made this experience exactly what my family was looking for. Staff made sure everyone had a phenomenal time. They played great music for adults (could skip some songs that used bad language), overall the Catamaran was clean and the food was good. Tony was a great host….

Fantastic!! Frank and Victor were absolutely the best!! Great ride, lots of mud and mud and mud !! But a strategic beach stop to wash off before the next mud parade! Bring goggles, wear old clothes, water shoes and gators! Best day, cant wait til Spring 2025 to do it again!

Amazing fun! I am a 60-year-old Grammy and my kids were shocked that I enjoyed this excursion so much. Haha! We got SO muddy!!! Once that first wave of mud hits you, you feel like you're already messy so just sit back and enjoy letting go. My husband enjoyed speeding through the mud and being a badass! I can't say enough about how wonderfully caring the tour staff were. Everyone was so helpful and nice! Like one of the other commenters, I did not see lockers and was going to suggest that future tourists bring a trash bag to cover your belongings because ours got super-nasty. But then I saw the lockers when we returned. They were behind the desk where you get signed up. The trash bag could still be a good item to bring. Wear a mask or balaclava to keep the mud out of your mouth. The stop for souvenirs and tastings was really fun and I was happy to patronize some local families. And the beach was a wonderful respite from the craziness of the adventure. 100% FUN!!! Do it!!

My wife and I loved this off road experience. We never do stuff like this on holiday and we're glad we did. That being said, you WILL get very wet and very dirty...there's also very little in the way of padding in the buggies, so you will feel every bump on the road...and there are many. I highly recommend wearing a bandana and pool/sea shoes as your feet get wet too. Also, wear clothes that you're happy to throw away afterwards, or you can wash out very quickly after the trip. Heads up! As well as driving through the beautiful DR countryside, you also drive through small villages and have to cross main roads. The jewellery sellers at the beach stop can be a nuisance, but just be firm and you'll make it off the beach without emptying your wallet. I'd highly recommend this trip.

The food was good, the atmosphere was awesome! The tour guides was so cool. You must do this! I can’t swim and they helped me in the water and made me feel very comfortable

I've been on many ATV excursions and this was by far one the the best. This was the longest actual ride I've ever experienced

This was hands down the best excursion ever! Our crew was great! The bus ride to get there was 2 hours - but worth the wait! The "island" is actually a sand bar surrounded by a reef that you can snorkel over. Clear waters and lots of life to see. Don't think you will have it to yourself - there was about 250 people there all at once - 3 big boats each holding 50 people and about 10 or more speedboats each holding about 12 or so... but still very cool!
