Exploration and adrenaline by buggy - We really enjoyed this buggy tour. The roads were challenging and fun, and the stops at Macau’s cave and beach were spectacular. The team was professional and made sure we were all comfortable and safe. An unforgettable experience in Punta Cana.

Saône Island with style and good price - I booked this tour online because the price was much better than other options, and I have no regrets! The catamaran ride was super relaxing, with drinks and music to enjoy the path. The best thing was that we were a small group, which made everything more exclusive and quiet. Arriving on the island, the beaches were a dream: turquoise water, white sand and plenty of room to relax. The staff were super attentive and made sure we didn't miss anything. A perfect day without spending too much!

An amazing and super cheap day! - I found this tour online and it was a bargain compared to others I saw. The trip to Saône Island was all they promised and more. Going in a small group made everything more relaxed and personalized. The catamaran was great, with great music, drinks and super comfortable. The beaches are different level, like a paradise. The best was the attention of the team, always attentive and friendly. For the price I paid, I felt like I got a lot more than expected. Highly recommended if you are looking for something economical and spectacular!

Not a small group tour not at all… - I searched and searched before committing to booking a tour to Saona island, I wanted a small group so when I read on this tour there was a maximum of 15 group I thought this would be a good option. Well how misleading was that! We were collected from our hotel no problem in a mini bus which seated about 12 so we thought this looks ok so far… then we continued to collect people for about 35 minutes, drove to a bus terminus which dropped off 8 of the original group, another group of 8 were picked up and we hit 5e road for the port, still feeling fairly optimistic at this stage! Had a toilet stop and obligatory gift shop - nice clean loo’s so no problem with that. A further 20 minutes to the port, on arrival we were instructed to follow this guide over the road to a meeting area, this is where I thought things are getting busy as there were lots of other groups congregating with us. After a while we were escorted down to the dock where yes, large catamarans were being loaded with 50/60 tourists…oh no! We were going on my worst nightmare “A PARTY BOAT”!!! Got on, crappy thecno music at blistering volume, crowded, only rum and coke on offer not that I wanted to drink. Absolutely hated it and it was over and hours journey which felt like purgatory! The island was nice, had a poor lunch of rice and weird mash potatoes as I’m vegetarian no choice… I sound like a real moaner but honestly this is not what I booked. 2 hours to eat and have a wander around or swim soon goes. Eventually found our group for the return on a faster boat, not bad less loud music, good. Back on the bus after a chaotic exchange in the car park, we were taken a few streets away to a very dodgy looking waste land with a few other vehicles around (jokingly said we’re all going to get abducted now) No idea what was going on until I asked the driver who spoke in Spanish “pool”… what? I said, he said we swim in pool! Oh my god, I wouldn’t want to swim in that thanks, plastics rubbish everywhere, we declined and stayed in the van… Got back to hotel at about 7.00 pm. The driver was friendly, very friendly with one of the American guests - saw them snogging on the beach, ah well perks of the job I guess!
