Beautiful beaches - The Bayahibe sandbank (natural pool) was impressive and the beach on SAONA Island was phenomenal! The beach buffet service was very good!

Wonderful day on the island and more - I really enjoyed my day on this tour. The meeting point was at the park at 6:10 am, but some people were late. We left at 6:30 am. There were two stops where we picked up people. In general, the bus journey took about 2 hours, maybe a little less. Afterwards, we were put on a large boat and paradise began. There were free drinks and music playing on board. The first stop was at the lagoon, we swam and enjoyed the beautiful views. The Island itself is beautiful, the water is sky blue. There was lunch on the island and also free drinks (we drank rum🤪). We spent 4 hours on the island. We drove back tired but happy. Lots of beautiful photos and videos. I recommend. My rating is 4.9.

Fun, adventurous and organized - I had a great time traveling solo, and met a lot of fun people. Island was beyond beautiful, water was crystal blue/green and clean. Ride was amazing, easy and fun throughout the whole experience. Staff on the boat was great, guide was amazing and everything was very well organized! I recommend 100%, and would do it again…

More about the journey and the destination is an added plus - Great experience from start to finish, we met up our guide and group at a park nearby and drove to a half way point. The ride was safe and a/c was great. The food at the rest stop was not great but worked to keep us going, and we got snacks for the road. We got on the boat and stopped again to swim in the “natural pool” which was refreshing. We boarded the boat again and arrived on the island, food was buffet style so not the best but not a big deal. Everyone was having fun, on the way back we got caught in a storm but everyone kept dancing. The staff from the boat, the island and the tour guide were all so nice. At no point did it feel overly pushy to buy anything or to tip like other reviews commonly mention. Overall I had fun it was a memorable experience.

Fun in the sun and water - Great day trip. Be prepared to be out all day! The boat ride was so fun. The island was beautiful. The food and drinks were good and the water was perfect! It was just what I was looking for in a beach day.

Very nice boat day - Very nice and valuable for the price. Food could be better. But overall a very great experience, truly beautiful beach

Amazing time with my LGBTQ+ crew - Great time! Food, drinks, music, environment was awesome! Very LGBTQ+ friendly. A group of 5 of us had a blast.

Great experience, aside from the booking staff! - First, I'll give you the good: the tour guides, boat crews, photographers, and other staff were amazing! The trip itself was a ton of fun and the stops were gorgeous! The food at the island was really good and there was plenty to go around. Now for the negative: the people in the office were awful. They called the day before and gave me a DIFFERENT meeting time and place than was in the ticket. We were staying in Juan Dolio and had arranged transportation to the meeting place in the ticket but I was told that if we weren't at the new meeting place by 6 am we would be left behind. I change our transportation and we arrived as instructed only to find out that they didn't even have our party of 7 on the list! Luckily the tour guide worked it out, but we didn't even end up leaving for another 45 minutes after our arrival. To add insult to injury, the drive went right past where we were staying and made an additional stop between our resort and where we met the boat. The office could have saved us over 2 hours by giving us the option to meet the bus at that stop. All in all, I would book again but now I know!

Good - The weather was nice and the boat was fun. However, it’s a 2 hr ride to the boat and quite unorganized once you get there. The crew was unorganized and extremely late for everything.

Not worth it - We never were picked up at the pick up location and never attended the event. It was very upsetting as we were looking forward to it. Waiting on an update on a refund.
