Great - The tour guide (Nacho) and driver (Daniel) were phenomenal. The waterfall was absolutely gorgeous. Lunch was good. It was awesome being able to see the towns and countryside of the Dominican Republic! Bacardi island was absolutely beautiful.

Dear for what it is - Why 3 stars? We left in the morning around 6:45 from the hotel in the bus directly, we waited for shuttles from other hotels on a stop. Then it was a 2-hour drive with a stop at a Service Station to go to the bathroom and breakfast served on the bus. Arrive at a parking lot where we take the boat (do not place you in the middle if you do not want to get wet from the beginning) to reach the island of Samana. A truck waits for us on arrival to take us to the ranch where we are provided with boots, then we get on the horses, we go through a very steep and dangerous path for about thirty minutes... we then get off the horses, to go down about 200 steps, to finally arrive at the waterfall of El Limon where it is possible to swim but there are many people... You have to walk up to the horses and go back the other way, plan tips they will ask for (they are not always happy when you don’t give enough according to them ..) We then take the truck back to the boat and take the cape of an island (sorry I remember the name) to eat and relax, the beach is beautiful! We go back to the bus by boat and it’s off for 2 hours drive to the hotel. A nice day but flat at the level of horseback riding... and it makes you come home quite late

Scam upon Scam - With the exception of the beautiful waterfall and gorgeous beach water this was an absolute nightmare. To begin with we got picked up an hour late, then we were switched to 3 different buses. After that we took a 2 hour ride to the boat. 35 min ride to the Semana island which wasn’t bad. After doing that you are taken to go eat and then to the waterfall. The waterfall is a complete scam, I ended up having to spend another $220 dollars because you are forced to pay the horse workers because that is not included in the trip. What did I exactly pay for if I am having to pay an additional 220 dollars. I didn’t anticipate that and didn’t bring any bank cards so I was forced to buy something at the store near the waterfall which was marked up beyond the cost as a tactic because they knew this was the only way I could get money by using my phone. That really ruined the trip. Again the waterfall is beyond words but everything leading up to it is a complete scam, everyone is wanting money in some type of form or fashion. I would avoid this trip if I were you unless you are willing to pay double. There a lot more things on the island to enjoy than to be scammed while on vacation. Lastly if you speak English good luck because there is no one to translate at all.
