Highlights
  • Punta Cana - This includes the time needed to gather all passengers and travel to Bayahibe, where the tour begins.
  • Catuano - We’ll explore the Catuano Channel, with the guide providing a brief history and description of the area.
  • Mano Juan - A short sail away, we’ll visit the charming fishing village of Mano Juan, known for its colorful houses. Here, we’ll stroll through the streets to a small sea turtle sanctuary.

After touring the village, we’ll have lunch here.

  • Canto de la Playa - Known as the most beautiful beach on Saona Island!

It’s the farthest beach you can visit on Saona Island. El Canto beach features a shallow coral reef where, with some luck, we can spot a variety of colorful fish, stingrays, and other marine life. The beach is distinguished by its numerous coconut palms, fine white sand, and the clear turquoise waters, making it the most stunning beach on the island.

  • Punta Cana - The starfish paradise!

Another highlight of the day will be the stop at the Natural Pools of Saona Island, one of the world’s largest sandbanks. The warm, crystal-clear waters are home to giant starfish, making this a must-visit spot for its extraordinary beauty.

After spending time at this final stop, we’ll return to our starting point.

  • Isla Saona - Covering 110 square kilometers, Isla Saona is a top Caribbean attraction. Its pristine beaches, fine white sand, and clear waters make it a must-visit destination.

Our visit starts at one of Saona Island’s untouched beaches, Playa de los Flamencos, a narrow strip of fine white sand lined with large coconut trees, clear waters, and a spectacular lagoon where, during the rainy season, you can see large flocks of pink flamingos.

Here, you can enjoy a snack and some fruit.

  • Punta Cana - This includes the time needed to return to the hotels in Punta Cana, as the tour concludes in Bayahibe.

Spectacular!!! Beautiful beaches service of 10 - Excellent, a unique experience, the staff was very friendly, our channel guide was attentive to us the entire time, he explained to us in detail what to do and what not to do, the tour was very complete and Saona, simply spectacular, beautiful landscapes, wonderful beaches and the food of the best. The only recommendation is that it is not worth purchasing the VIP service, the only difference is that at lunch they seat you at a private table and you have a glass of champagne with an appetizer, otherwise it is identical to the rest of the group.

Incredible Tour - The best tour of our vacation in Punta Cana. We started very early, they looked for us and we went in a van, with people from all over the world, to Bayahibe, where the boat was going to be waiting for us. We had 3 stops at a beach that was prettier than the other. They offered us drinks all day, delicious food in the town of Mano Juan, and free time to take photos and unforgettable memories. Thank you

unmissable saona - Very good experience with this tour, carried out with the agency that the hotel's bellboy recommended to us. On the way there it was by speedboat, we took advantage of the natural pool, and the beautiful Saona island, paradisiacal. The food was good, we were able to eat 2 dishes each hehe I didn't find the turtle sanctuary part interesting, the rest was very good

essential tour when visiting Punta Cana - A dream come true, YOU CANNOT go to Punta Cana and not visit Saona Island, it is spectacular, a movie beach, its huge palm trees, the color of the sea, the white sand, impressive. The food was very good and varied. The guides speak many languages, they make you feel super comfortable

Never ever Viator again, book locally it is cheaper - Not as described 1. in the description is mentioned 7-8h, nothing about 12h 2. ⁠we booked German tour guide, be he spoke only broken language, mainly it was all in Spanish and English only 3. ⁠25 people on one boat, 21 Spanish speaking, 2 English and 2 of us German speaking 4. ⁠the boat was super small, not a vip boat 5. ⁠we where also not alone with our boat, 3 other boats joined us, so overall we were ca. 100 people 6. ⁠the people booked with $80/person were on the same boat with us, so there is no difference 7. ⁠food was a joke, simple buffet, no vip 8. ⁠open bar only cheap soft drinks, not vip drinks 9. ⁠30% commission via the Plattform? This is NOT VIP! Und to make it clear We paid VIP €255 The other couple paid $160 locally Same tour Same small boat Same stops Same lame food Same lame drinks How could this be?

I demand My money Back! - No one should go with them! This company is a scam! They tricked me! I demand my money back! I paid this: $95/person. Vip. These are left out: Mano Juan, Canto de la Playa. It's just a simple Saona island visit! Even if he lies and denies it, the description is still online! I paid for a Vip program, small group, visiting several places, instead I got a simple one, with too many people! 4 hours by bus and only 6 hours of program. There was not enough food, no fruit! The drink is too much, unlimited, they shout on the bus! Police action was also taken! I am sure they will remove this entry! They'd rather put up another one with a new title! I didn't pay for this program!
