Saona Island Excursion by Catamaran and Speedboat

Excellent from start to end. Our transportation was punctual, professional and very friendly. Speed boat and catamaran ride felt very safe. Saona beach was absolutely beautiful and relaxing. Food was tasty. Guide was funny and made the whole trip a lot more pleasant. Definitely a must when you’re visiting Punta Cana.

Despite having to wear a mask & practicing distancing our trip was FABULOUS!!! We didn't go on the catamaran I guess it was due to the virus. It entails dancing & a lot of socializing but nevertheless it was spectacular!!!

My son and I were super excited about going on this excursion. We got an email the night before that it had been cancel and that I needed to contact Viator to receive a refund.

Small boat, old crotchety van, silent host, and no dramamine to be found except for a local shop that charged me $8 a pill. But what else could I do? I was dry heaving the whole trip. Our group only caught two baby mahi mahi. Hardly any interaction with the group and they had the nerve to hit us up at the end for a tip. One other gentleman was sick on the way home, but no water on the van. Thank god I had the sense to bring my own water from the hotel. The most miserable I have ever been. I also had to request they play music, or I would have ridden in silence the whole trip. Pay more money and upgrade to a more VIP experience. You get what you pay for!

We had such a great time with Jack Sparrow! We had a blast on the catamaran and the island was beautiful. I just wish we had more time on Saona Island itself, it was gorgeous. And the snorkeling was a good touch to end the trip. I highly recommend this excursion and make sure you get Sparrow!

Beautiful simply beautiful I cant say enough about this excursion it was awesome and I would do it again

The day started at 745 when we were picked up and drove about an hour to a gas station to be transported to another crowded bus which wasnt that big of a deal. Then from there we drove for about another 20 minutes to a rest stop and hung out for 15 minutes which everyone needed a break but everyone was getting a little restless by then. From there about 45 minutes we finally made it to where the boat (which was the catamaran) well once arriving and walking down to the beach we were bombarded with people trying to sell us stuff. A man with iguanas just put them on my son no one asked me or my husband if he could he just did it and once it was over his exact words were

We had a great time with and the pirate! Lunch was good and the attention from the tour attendants was superb!

Excursion on May 12, 2018. By far the worst excursion I have ever been to. We were picked up from our resort and taken to a gas station to pick up other travelers. We were then taken to the marina where we waited over an hour to board a speedboat. While waiting multiple people asked what we were waiting for and we were always told we were waiting for the guide to pay the taxes for us to board the boat. Once on the boat we were served the cheapest version of Dominican rum I have ever had. The open bar was one of the reasons why we picked this excursion and we were very disappointed. When we asked about having beer instead we where told we had to wait until we got to the island. Once we arrived at the island we were told that beer would not be served until the buffet were ready. We were again disappointed with the food provided. Dominicans are known for flavorful foods and this was mediocre to say the least. The beer served was again the cheapest found in the island Brahma. Everyone knows that Presidente is the national Dominican beer and it was nowhere to be found. For those of the travelers that did have the beer it was only in small amounts as they ran out after a few minutes. When we asked the tour guide about getting more beer he said that they had served all they had and if we had concerns to go online and write a review about it. There was minimal customer service as well. I was truly disappointed in this company and their representatives. They did not take responsibility for being deceitful in their advertisement of this excursion. I would not recommend it or book with them again.

This was my second trip to Punta Cana. I did this excursion to Saona Island last year. It was the best part of my trip. A beautiful beach and the stop at the sandbar for wading and enjoying rum and cokes is great. However, this company was a bit disorganized in loading us on the buses at the initial meeting point and then loading onto the speedboat at the dock. I thought this could have been handled better. I would certainly recommend this as a day trip when in Punta Cana. There are plenty of companies that offer the trip. Shop around for those with the best reviews.
