Worth the experience! - I found the walk amazing! I read several reviews and I confess that I did not take the walk! There are many complaints of travel, food and etc. But it is a unique experience, the sea is surreal, a spectacle! The guide and the driver stayed the time giving news and in touch on WhatsApp. Note 10 the staff's care! In fact it is a long walk, the lunch is simple but tasty. I don't regret it! We meet people from all cultures, animated prison!

0/10 do not recommend - Richard was just a middleman with no control over the actual tour. We specifically requested a semi-private boat (max 15 people), and he assured us that’s what we’d get. Instead, we were crammed onto a boat with 30+ others. The transit was chaotic—our driver kept making unexplained stops, and when we got to the dock, Richard backpedaled with excuses about the group size. He should have just been upfront about what he could actually guarantee. The tour itself was disappointing. We left at 8am and returned at 6pm, but most of that time was spent in transit. We got barely an hour on the island, were served terrible food, and the guides cared more about upselling photos than delivering a good experience. We had just 30 minutes at the natural pool—the only real highlight. This was my second time in DR, and the previous island tour I did was far superior. None of the 7 girls in our group enjoyed it. Skip this tour. Book with a company your hotel recommends.

Terrible booking experience - Terrible - he is just an agent He acted like he was in charge of the booking and had no say over anything. Initially paid for a 15-passenger boat so there would be a few additional guests as he said and later he sent us a message saying it would now be a private booming for just 8 of us. I mean, we were excited. Lo and behold, we got there and met the real organizers who informed us that there was no private experience nor 15-seater (note: there were numerous whatsapp messages exchanged so we had proof of what we paid for and expected from him). The real bookers informed us that they were going to seat a minimum of 50ppl on a 250-person catamaran. Richard changed his tune and had the guts to ask if we wanted to enjoy a beach day or complain about the change in booking experience vs expectation. He was so unprofessional and i never want to come across a person like this ever again! Pick up service organized by him was also a nightmare! Book with him at your own risk.
