So so so beautiful. I... - So so so beautiful. I would book this tour again in a heartbeat. The tour guide made it feel like we were all family. LOVE LOVE LOVE. You need to book this tour. So so worth it

Paradise on Earth. - Everything can be summed up in a single word: EXCELLENCE. environment during Super pleasant trip, the entertainers always attentive. Not to mention the island. It is paradise on earth.

Simply phenomenal!! - The entire excursion is very well organized, I think that what starts well, ends well. Starting with the transfer from the hotel to Bayahibe beach in comfortable buses and a very experienced guide and then taking a fast boat to take us to Saona Island, but not before making a stop at a sandbank, like a natural pool where we spent A very pleasant moment with drinks and entertainment and then continue our journey. Once on Saona Island, everything is fun and fectilife without forgetting the delicious Dominican BBQ and pasta in lobster sauce. The Island is simply beautiful, white sand, crystal clear water, a scenery that takes your breath away. But my heart caught fire when we returned sailing the entire coast facing the sun aboard the incredible catamaran. A family activity that I will never forget. It is worth enjoying the service and natural resources that this activity offers!!

Excellent attention, very good service from the representatives and the excursion, really fascinating. - The views and experience are recommended. No waste! I would do it again and I would take my friends and some of my absent relatives on this trip, I know it will be memorable, as much as for those of us who have already done it.

Overpriced for what you really get. Not all inclusive - Hired this supposed to be “small group” tour to Saona Island, we were a party of 5 Pick up was delayed due to miscommunication with driver and picked us up by 8AM in a van only to take us to a Gift Shop where we boarded a minibus (capacity of Aprox 25 pax), with another 30 people in total extremely uncomfortable conditions, for a 90’ ride. We boarded a speedboat to board a Catamaran. Inside the catamaran, we had a very nice photo shoot (additional price of USD2.00/picture) and we were supposed to have a free bar included, however this only consisted of Water, Rum, Sprite and Regular Coke served in 3oz disposable plastic cups. We arrived at Saona Island by noon, and had a 2 hour layover. A Full Buffet was supposed to be included, however only Pasta with Tomato Sauce, Chicken, Pork chop and Rice with seafood were available as mains, potato and cabbage as salads and only pineapple for dessert. Beer was sold for another USD8.00 and a glass of white wine was sold for an aditional USD35,00 (extremely overpriced), Coke, Rum, Sprite and water were available “free of charge” The beach was beautiful, blue-turquoise water with barely any waves, very nice for spending the day, in fact we would’ve appreciated if we could stay longer than 2 hours. We then left for the “sea-star pool” (none were there), and we spent only 15 minutes there only for swimming and taking pictures. We then headed back in a speed boat to Bayahibe, our departure location, only to arrive soaking wet due to a storm we had while sailing, the speedboat did not have any kind of ceiling. Upon arrival in Bayahibe we boarded the same bus that took us from Punta Cana, and when we were arriving in Punta Cana, the driver decided to split us into two groups, being the mayority of the bus going to 2 resorts, he made us deboard and tried to forcefully make us board a mini van with capacity of 10 pax (the ones heading to 2 of the resorts, were about 18 people). In conclusion: Saona Island is beautiful and worth visiting, however this Tour Operator (Turcana) made the experience very unpleasant in what regards to the Transportation and not delivering what they promise on the website. I think it is extremely overpriced for what you really get.

Long day. Not worth it. - Took over an hr to pick others up. Then waited because they weren't outside. Took 1.5 hrs to get to the dock for the boat then 1.5 hr more on a boat. Only stayed at the beach for 2 hrs max. Then on a boat again for 30 minutes then another 1.5 hr plus trip home. Looooong day. No snacks. It was eh.
