Show de Emoção de Taiguey

Was expecting more snorkelling as it was advertised as a snorkelling excursion. We only stayed at the snorkelling spot for about 10 minutes, in which the fish were really cool to see, but we did not stay nearly as long as we had hoped or expected. Natural swimming pool (sand bar) stop was cool but was quickly overrun with other tour boats, very busy and loud. We still had a good time, but more snorkelling would’ve been nice.

They did not show and their phone did not work. In addition did not respond to messages on here. We waited 45 minutes for them until we gave up. It might have been cool if it happened.

They never showed up at hotel to pick me up. I emailed 4 days prior for confirmation. No return email. Concierge at hotel called morning of excursion. Call kept being ended.

This was recommended by our hotel as a great snorkeling experience, but also a great party boat, I.e., booze cruise. Pickup from the hotel and transport to the boat did go smoothly. The trip is advertised as including 5 different parts: 1) The cultural stop at a Taino museum. Other than sitting at a picnic table in the parking lot waiting to board the bat, this did not happen; 2) 40 minutes of snorkeling. The area was beautiful over a coral reef, but more like 20 minutes. Not enough time; 3) Cruise with professional dancers who will go through multiple traditional dances. Nope. A bunch of teenagers hopping u and down to a Spanish version of “Shout” fr 5 minutes, followed by 2 performers doing a “Taino” dance for 5 minors: 4 A 40 minute stop at a white sand pool. Lasted over 60 minutes. About 7 other part boats, all blasting different musc, while you could swim around the 4 foot deep sand bar. It wasn’t until we were approaching here that they opened up the “open bar”—Sprite, Coke, one brand of beer, and Barcelo Dominican rum. Nothing else. A loud party atmosphere, but not exactly a “booze cruise.” 5) Dance competition and Caribbean rhythms. No dance competition or prize—just more loud music. Honestly, it felt like this was a ride for employees to eat off steam, and we were able to be on the boat also. Snorkeling should have been longer, the stop at the noisy party area should have been shorter,, and the bar should have included more than one beer and rum (which were not available until halfway through the cruise)

Phone number was disconnected, never answered any emails, and THE SHUTTLE NEVER CAME TO PICK US UP!. We waited for an hour!

No one contacted us or picked us up it was horrible and it was my daughter birthday excursion it was so sad I waited for someone

We booked this show for my husband's birthday and they never picked us up for the boat ride. They never responded to any messages from me or from Viator. Don't waste your time and money. Waiting on a refund.

Booked the excursion no call or text no-show then they tried to charge me $50. For what? I wish I knew and I want them to try to call me out on my review. I waited in the lobby for over an hour

Ivan and the crew were top notch. Very friendly and we felt very safe. Dancing, snorkeling, and made some amazing new friendships too. I highly recommend!

We purchased this excursion thinking we would do snorkeling. Stop above a coral with almost no fish (20 minutes). But there was a lack of security, around forty divers and only one person supervising the divers. There were big waves and wind, some people had difficulty getting back to the boat. Afterwards, destination ¨the natural swimming pool¨as they mentioned. Place where there is a crowd of boats with unlimited rum and everyone in the water (60 minutes). Each boat had music, a real TINMAARRE. 75% of the people were drunk..... We got the recommendation and bought this trip from the BARCELO Bavaro Beach hotel.
