We're taking you to the Super-Star of off-shore islands in the Dominican Republic. Think sun, sand, booze, boats and bikinis! You can thank us later but for now let us tell you about the ridiculously beautiful Saona Island. We'll hit the Caribbean Sea on a speedboat and slowly cruise you back to the mainland on a spacious catamaran. Oh, there’s also music, animation and open bar. This is the Caribbean, folks. It's an all-inclusive, full-day outing and you need some time away from your Punta Cana resort. You get the boat, the open bar and the food. Oh, and we pick you up and drop you off at your lobby. That is easy!

It’s beautiful on the Island! The water and beach are much better than at the resorts at Punta Cana. The tour itself is A little long, it took 11 hours from leaving hotel to returning. The best part of the tour was our guide Christian!
Enjoyed the atmosphere and crew. Just the right amount of time spent at the island. Food was delicious.
This is a 12 hour excursion. You ride a bus for 2 hours as you stop at other resorts to get people, then stop at some shop for a bathroom break then back on the road. You get on 1 boat then to another boat, stop at sandbar, go to island, you have to climb from the boat up dangerous rocks to get onto the island. Once on the island you can't even relax and enjoy your time bc you are hounded by someone trying to sell you jewelry or give you a massage for the entire 2 hours. You then have to climb back down the dangerous rocks to get on a small boat to take you to the catamaran. This is also dangerous as it ties up other side of the catamaran and you have to cross over while waves are bouncing the boats all over the place. Ride in catamaran for about an hour then back in the bus for another 2 hours. You are expected to tip the bus driver, the guide, each boat, the people who take up your plates at lunch. It's exhausting. So in the 12 hours you get lunch only so make sure to pack snacks
Saona is beautiful, this is an activity you shouldn't miss if you go to Punta Cana. The service was good but there are some things that needs to improve like the waiting time when you get to Bayahibe (departure point) our guide told us that we had to wait about 10 min to get on the boat but it arrives 30 min later 😅😅. The food was ok, however they offer better options at an extra cost , which it's good if you dont mind paying extra for a better meal.
This experience was hella fun!! Lots of drinking and dancing 😁👏🏾🍷 The crew really knew how to have a good time. Good way to celebrate a birthday 🎂
Very Beautiful, would definitely do again. A little of a sales pressure from the locals, but respectful if you say no thank you.
Absolutely horrible less than 24 hours I was contacted by the tour operator action I could switch my date to Sunday once I was not in agreement they asked me to cancel. This means since it was less than 24 hours I will not get my refund very unprofessional. I had to reach out directly to buy viator to handle the situation.
It was a very nice place I loved its very attentive people and rich food and especially the calm sea as a pool I recommend
The experience was a 1 in a lifetime experience I recommend This to want to have fun day because it will leave exhausted from the fun.
Excellent Service 10 out of 10, Wonderful Experience Very Friendly All People, Very Nice Mood Throughout Travel
