    Good excursion for this price, but not the best place at the beach in Saona. Nice organization and guide. The price is the cheapest what we found.

    Spectacular Landscapes! The excursion offers impressive views of the Dominican landscape, from the mountains to the beaches of Samaná. Every stop was a delight to our eyes.

    Had a terrible experience. They took us out in the pouring rain. Couldn’t enjoy it as all. It was very scary as you couldn’t see anything cause of how bad the storm was. Then when done they took us to sketchy shop where they tried to overprice everything. Then the tour guide left us in there and have to walk through an alley where all locals were heckling us. Would not recommend this at all

    An early start with an approx 1.5 hour transfer from Punta Cana. There's a short walk from mini bus drop off on an unmade path to our boat on the River Chavón. As we travelled down the river, we saw various wildlife, villas and a church where Michael Jackson married high on the top of the river bank.
    At the end of the river we entered Casa de Campo Marina to marvel at some very impressive super yachts and on the opposite side just as impressive villas owned by super stars and CEOs of large organisations.
    From here, we powered on full blast to the natural sand bank in the Carribean Sea. A waist high area where we enjoyed local rum and coke (or cerveza) music and dancing led by our hosts. Many people from other tours joined our party scene and were envious of ours.
    Next on to Isla Saona. A short walk from boat to our dedicated area for food and more drinks. Plenty to eat and drink. After eating we had approximately 1 hour to relax and enjoy the white sands and crystal clear Carribean Sea. Would have been nice to have had slightly longer stay.
    Our final stop of the tour was to a turtle sanctuary on Saona, where we saw how the locals cared for the eggs and the new hatchlings.
    We powered back to Bayahibe a fishing town which took 50 mins or so and said goodbye to our hosts before rejoining our transport back to our hotel.
    Great day out with great hosts highly recommend very good value for money.

    The driver was late and we had to switch busses 3 times in order to accommodate more people going to the island. The description says "open bar" and "greeted with a tropical drink." This didn't happen. We received water and the open bar only consisted of 3 drinks to choose from. Beer was not available until a certain time after we got to the island. A Pina colada costs $12! The staff was very friendly and entertaining and they tried to make sure everyone had a good time. However, this trip wasn't what we were told it was going to be. The island was beautiful but it was super hot and the ocean was rocky. If you don't mind these things, you will love the beautiful view, but it just wasn't for us.

    We scheduled this trip with two couples from Cap Cana. The day was very beautiful. There was a little spot in the transportation that my driver pulled the van over to the side of the road and tried to tell me I was on the wrong bus. I was alarmed as I thought I was being told to get off the bus. Upon further discussion, there was another van to pick up my group right behind this van. The purpose was because my small group was going to Altos de Chavon.....just a moment of panic that could have been prevented with communication. On to Altos de Chavon...beautiful place, but we were not there long enough to see much. Best part of the day was Saona for sure. I would have loved to have spent the entire day on this island. So beautiful and the food was amazing. The speed boat ride to the sand bar was AMAZING. The water was crystal clear and my group loved the time in the water there. The catamaran ride was very nice. We were tired and just laid around on the front of the boat for most of the time. Drinks were just ok though on the boat. Now for the pictures...too many posed pictures and time taking pictures. I did not want all of the pictures and was not allowed to purchase the two that I did want. That part confused me! On another note, with all the transfers and different boats and vans we rode, I felt like I was tipping all day long! They are also not shy to ask!!!

    All and all, it was a spectacular day...worth the money (even with all the traveling). When we return, we will just try and find a full day at Saona though.

    The water was unreal!!

    We were 3 adults, 2 teenagers and a 4y old child. We booked a tour in English but the guide (Dany boy) was speaking Spanish and just summarizing in English missing important information. I knew it because I speak French. I told him to better translate. He first denied that he was not telling us everything until I gave him some examples. He apologized and then translate only those examples.
    The tour was mass tourism like I never seen before. The boat and the catamaran were packed with as many people as possible, i.e. 4 persons were sitting on a bench made for 3 in the boat. On the catamaran many people were standing or sitting on the ground.
    The natural pool is very nice but with many boats and 1000 of people. Where we made the lunch break on Saona Island was crowded, dirty, brocken glas and plastic everywhere. Far away from paradise. The lunch buffet was bad: noodle in tomato sauce, porc that was not well done, etc. A piñata colada for 10 US $.
    On the way back, the music was very loud and they refused to turn the volume down a bit. I complained on the spot to the organizer since I had a phone number and the answer I got was "If you wanted a quiet activity you should stay at your resort". Some people got drunk (no wonder when they get chip rum served the whole day at their discretion, even in the water) and could not behave. The tour guide did not say anything. I would not recommend this tour and for sure not this company as organizer. My feeling was that they want to make as much money as possible without consideration of the environment and the comfort and safety of the people on the tour.

    If you've never been to a sandy Caribbean island before, perhaps, you'll enjoy the trip. However, if you've seen sandy beaches in the Caribbean before, the trip will be a total disappointment. The most exciting part of the trip was the crew that serviced the trip. Otherwise, Saona island itself is boring, overcrowded, and overrated--not beautiful at all, and the water has nothing to do with the crystal clear water you see on the pictures. BTW, expect to spend about 2 hours tops on the island; the rest of the time is travel time. I wouldn't recommend the trip--you'll be better off spending the day in your all-inclusive resort.

    THE BEST trip ever! Definitely recommend this private tour of Saona Island. We have arrived at least an hour before anyone else, so we had the Island to ourselves. We left after everyone else had left. Victor (our tour guide) was very informative and made sure we were taken care of on the Island and on the way there and back. So worth spending the extra money on private vs catamaran tour with 50 people.
