Beautiful Saona, a unique and spectacular beach. The service was good and the catamaran was very fun
The excursion was beautiful! The staff were not polite, helpful or kind to English speaking customers. The worst staff I have ever had! Take another tour! Danny Boy is not a great tour guide!
1. misleading pick up time - it states clearly on your itinerary that pickup was 8am but reminder was sent for 7am. When I asked , you said it has to be between certain time. 2. late pickup-After complaining, you confirmed pickup for 730 but driver came around 741, we had to wait standing outside the hotel. 3. Sizes of transport- The first minivan was already kind of full, and then it picked up family of 4. it was too crowded and uncomfortable. why didnt you manage according to traveller group size? 5. Bus switch- We already ran late bc of this schedule and then randomly got dropped off at a petrol station without any notice- why wasnt this mentioned in the itinerary? 6. language barrer- it was also said the tour would be in english, but most of your staff didn’t know how to speak which made it even more difficult to understand situations. 7. Catamaran schedule- in your description it was supposed to be Saona Island first, THEN the natural swimming pool. But we were droppd off at the pool first. We had to wait for lunch until 2pm 8. limited time ar saona- in your description it says 3 hours, but we were asked to leave at 320- which means only 1.2 hours were given at the island. We travelled almost 7 hours just for less than 2 hours. 9. Quality of food/drinks- The buffet was not traditional dominican lunch as mentioned in your description ,bc it literally had spaghetti with tomato sauce. The open bar ONLY served rum/coke which should’ve been mentioned 10. No space in speedboat- on the way returning from Saona, our tour guide (Boack Banana) did not take us in their speedbot. Instead we were put ina. smaller boat with a separate group and the boat went extremely fast, and even faster than our assigned speedboat. It made us almost sick, and we had to wait for black banana’s boat to come. 11. Returning bus chaos- and still the bus played music SO loudly- the driver couldn’t hear anything the passengers said- annoying after 10hr trip.
We are a family of 4 with 2 kids. The transportation was a disaster, being picked up to meeting in a gas station where you are transferred to another van. Then a 25 mins drive passed the port to use washrooms & go to a gift shop to drive back and then finally arrive. The guides were super nice and friendly. At last, we got on a speed boat with a 25 mins stop at a blue lagoon which was a beautiful sight to see. From there we went to Saona island. We were under the impression we could snorkel like the add said but nope and really it’s just another beach to sit at. Lastly we boarded the catamaran with the already drunk passengers for a 50mins party boat ride back to shore. We picked this as we were under the impression we could snorkel and it was family friendly. The guides were great however had we known about the party boat and no official excursion, we wouldn’t have gone! If you want a party boat and just play in the water/beach this is the experience for you!
This is an excursion that you can not miss, the transport is punctual, our guide very attentive , I recommend it to the 💯 I liked it very much
Poorly organized or not organized at all. A lost holiday day and a waste of money, then better pay more and hopefully experience something better
We had so much fun in the Saona Catamaran Excursions that we will definitely do it again! Excellent food, entertainment, and beautiful beaches ⛱️
They never arrived and didn't answer my calls or text messages. Please run, it's a scam and I'm telling you a big one, avoid the bad time.
They never showed up to pick us up for the trip, I reached out multiple times and got no response from the company, currently waiting for a refund from Viator.
They left us waiting at the hotel and never came looking for us, they do not answer messages or even calls. Don't hire them!
