Quick and Fun Excursion!

The ride to and from the waterfall was rocky but great! My friends and I enjoyed swimming in the waterfall as well. It was quite cold but refreshing since it was quite hot while we were there. Andy and his tour guides as well as the photographer Gabriel were all welcoming and pleasant. They ensured that we were properly suited with the necessary gear and immediately took care of us when we had any trouble with the ATV along the journey.

A brand new experience and so much fun

Be prepared to walk uphill for at least thirty minutes. Watershoes or tennis shoes are mandatory, flip flops definitely not. Lunch is fabulous! The buggy ride is hilariously fun. Operator is super awesome.

Fun day out with adventure!

We were picked up by Anddy and company in a private van. We were in heaven having our own tour away from all the other cruise ship people… but once you get to the waterfalls everyone is together and you go up there with over 100 people which made for slow going and delayed the rest of our day. They told us we could leave all our belongings in the van And it would be safe. Based on other reviews I wanted to take my phone in a water proof case but they insisted it was not a good idea as the phone would get lost in the waterfalls and we had our own “paparazzi” photographer just for us so we didn’t need it. You will def want water shoes and be prepared for a strenuous hike up! The water fall slides were amazing but rushed with all the people. We didn’t have any time to enjoy them. It was jump and go… The biggest waterfall is a bit scary. You can either jump, slide, or climb down. We all decided to jump and glad we did! We got back for a great buffet lunch and at that time they informed us it would be $150 For the pictures he took and he would send them to us the next day. I’m sorry, but I’m not paying that kind of money for many of the same pictures at a waterfall! So in the end, we don’t have any pictures. $150 is ridiculous! I wish we had been told in the beginning because we felt bad that we wasted the photographers time, but we had never committed to anything and they didn’t tell us in advance! I’m pretty sure he was supposed to come with us in the dunes buggies but once we didn’t buy he left. The drove us to a local place to sit through a coffee and chocolate demo where of course they want you to buy cigars, coffee, etc. but they weren’t aggressive and we didn’t feel pressured. The dune buggies are old and you definitely want a face covering. You will get MUDDY! We had a blast going through the huge puddles and although it was stinky dirty water, it was a blast! We were running short on time, so we stopped at a dirty, litter filled beach to rinse off very quickly. We were given a local rum and coke and back to the ship on time! Our driver was great about keeping tabs on the time!! All in all Anddys was great, just wish I had known these few things in advance.

Amazing day spent on private tour!

Our driver, Milton, did an amazing job of educating us about the island during our drive, pointing out landmarks and including all of our stops into the itinerary. We hiked to see some memorable waterfalls and had an experience with Squirrel Monkeys at Monkey Home. Highly recommend this company for transportation and tours, just ask to have Milton drive you!

Great accommodations and...

Great accommodations and such a fun experience! Would do again in a heartbeat! Worth the money. Even better was the exceptional customer service as we had our own driver to and from port and to our excursions. Great time!

Book this trip!

Loved these activities! Only reason for giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is the duplicate stops for the 'tourist' shops. Rather have spent that extra time in the buggys.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your feedback and for choosing Anddy Tours. At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the buggy experience not meeting your expectations. We appreciate your observation and will definitely take it into account to improve that part of the tour.

Great day

Anddy Tours was very professional. Your guide for the day was Cesar. On time. Easy to book with. We had to reschedule several times and they were very accommodating. The one star I took off was for the buggies experience. They were more like Go Karts than buggies. No off roading. Just driving down a dusty road and they don’t let you go fast. They should look for a different biggie company to partner with.

Deceiving. Sent us the pickup location for the wrong cruise. You need more than water shoes for the hike.

More than water shoes are needed. Broke my toe on the river rocks. An hour hike not 30 minutes. Up hill and stairs. Equipment doesn’t fit well.
