    This tour was amazing, the perfect mix of relaxation and history. Melvin is without a doubt the best excursion tour guide I have met. His team was equally as phenomenal.

    While it was a long day, it was a perfect mix of the most beautiful beaches, that ended with snorkeling.

    If possible I’d rate this a 10/5 for the hospitality, knowledge, and quality of tour that Melvin puts on. Next time we are here, this is the only Saona Island tour we will be booking.

    My family who are all adults REALLY enjoyed this excursion. We got to taste the local coffee, Hot chocolate and their signature rum, Mama Juana. Afterwards we went to go see the squirrel monkeys and they were so cute! One fell asleep in our friend's hand! LOTS of photo opportunities and if you have any kids, you definitely will have to bring them here.

    We had a brilliant day on this tour. It was definitely “no bla bla bla, no Mickey Mouse”, it is the REAL Dominican. We managed to fit so much into 8 hours. I didn’t agree with the horse riding so chose to sit out and stroke the horses instead. I was very surprised by the amount of street dogs and wish I brought flea treatment and food for them. There’s no swimming at the river but there’s an opportunity to swim at Macao Beach which is BEAUTIFUL. Bring money for the tips, chocolate and coffee, otherwise you can use card at other stop offs. I’m so pleased we did this trip, and would highly recommend it!

    Trustworthy and very well organized, prices are ok. Cars aren't 100 percent clean but still ok. Friendly and respectful treatment.

    Overall, this was a great activity. The scenery was amazing. Our tour guide, Daniel was knowledgeable and had great energy. The concern I had was that he talked or texted on his phone too often. I felt he could have been more attentive to us as his clients. This was a private tour and there were a few times where other folks tried to poach on his services. I think he should make sure people understand that he was booked and paid solely by his client. There was also more walking than described in the description. I didn't anticipate that much walking and Daniel walked very fast for us. We took great pictures. Be careful, there are two or three spots on the tour where the vendors oversell on souvenirs. When we ate lunch, the food was delicious and filling. However, the busboy/busperson was very rude. After he cleared our dishes from the table, he came out and slammed a tip cup on our table. We were going to leave a tip anyway. Nonetheless, he seemed angry with us. We said thank you, we showed respect, and we were polite. Even Daniel was shocked at how the service person responded. Maybe he was having a bad day. But his actions showed poor customer service.

    I do recommend the activity, but I hope there are a few changes made to make the experience better.

    Our family took the tour from Punta Cana and enjoyed the trip into Santo Domingo greatly. Darius is an engaging and knowledgeable guide who presented us with a wonderful understanding of the Domenican Republic's history and culture.

    Lola and Bernard and the rest of the crew were excellent! May cost a little more then other excursions but they only take a certain amount of people. Would definitely go again and make sure you tip these people at the end they work hard for you!

    Greatly enjoyed the fast boat ride and amazing water. Saw sea turtles and starfish and good snorkeling and time in the water. Lunch was nicely set up on the beach with beautiful views and great food. Captain and guide, while not speaking English, were very accommodating.

    It was great, cause we went to all the major places in half of a day. It was just long enough to be comprehensive, but a full day would have been too exhausting. It also got us acquainted with the area at the beginning of our trip, so we were prepared for the following days.

    It also left time for us to make our own plans, for the evening, take a break, and then go out for dinner. The lunch time was perfect because it was towards the end when we worked up an appetite, from visitingthe major sites.
