7 waterfalls+typical food

Mary_M, Jul 2026

Great day in nature in the DR!

We had a great day! The hike was not bad with stops for resting along the way. The first two falls were water slides and the last two falls were choices of sliding, jumping(17ft) or steps. Transportation was clean and had AC! Samuel was our host and was great! Lunch was delicious! Highly recommend!

7 Waterfalls in Puerto Plata + a Delicious Local lunch.

Melissa_K, Jul 2026

Amazing experience

Great communication, clear instructions, professional and fun tour guides, combined with gorgeous waterfalls, natural waterslides, and exciting jumps, made for one of my all time favorite adventures. We had a very large group made of several families with kids ranging from 5-18. Everything went so smoothly and everyone had a blast. The lunch was a tasty authentic treat in a clean local run restaurant. All of this for a can't be beat price. I can't say enough good things about this excursion.

Snorkel Lovers for All Ages & Premium Seafood Lunch in Punta Cana

Family scuba tour Punta Cana

Brilliant interaction, well knowledgeable experience. Ramon and his crew are amazing, smooth sailing from pick up to drop off. I was in Punta Cana for 2 weeks and the surf and turf on the trip was the best meal I had on the entire holiday. Can’t recommend enough, kids loved it, adults loved it. If you come to Punta Cana, best excursion you can book. So much info to take in and made to feel welcome from all ages (out trip 6 months to 50). Amazing experience all round.

Book this excursion! You will not regret it!

Best experience in the Dominican Republic! Our cruise stopped into DR so I was looking for fun excursions for me, my partner, and friends. The entire experience from booking with Viator to the actual excursion was easy and smooth. The tour operators ensured we had an amazing time and that we did! Book this excursion, you will not be disappointed! Thank you again for such a fun and memorable experience!

Punta Cana Hip Hop Party Boat with Open Bar *Adults Only

DaNya_H, Jun 2026

1000/10 experience!! We...

1000/10 experience!! We received transportation from our resort to the island. Check in was smooth with your barcode or first and last name from booking. Our resort told us to only book through them for safety, but there was no safety concerns whatsoever so ever. Biggest downfall was waiting a while to get on the boat that could have been spent in the water. Music, premixed drinks( no shots or well drinks included), vibes, people, and crowd was great. Tip the bartender because there is usually just one person behind the bar pouring all the drinks. We got out of the water and were able to mingle with other party boats. Probably the best excursion I’ve been on!

Punta Cana: El Dorado Water Park Entry Ticket with Transportation

Monique_b, Apr 2026

El Dorado Water Park

I had an excellent time at El Dorado Water Park in Punta Cana. The park was clean, well-maintained, and offered a great variety of attractions for both relaxation and excitement. The slides were thrilling, the lazy river was perfect for unwinding, and there were plenty of areas to just sit back and enjoy the atmosphere. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made the experience even more enjoyable. It can be a little confusion because most of the workers does not speak English, Overall, it was a fun and memorable experience, and I would definitely recommend El Dorado Water Park to anyone visiting Punta Cana.

Monkeyland Puerto Plata

Andrea_F, Mar 2026

Monkeyland in Puerto Plata, D.R.

Visiting Monkeyland in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic was one of the absolute highlights of our trip! It’s such a unique, interactive experience—especially if you love animals. The squirrel monkeys are incredibly friendly and will climb right onto your shoulders, arms, and even your head if you let them! It felt surreal having them gently take food right out of our hands. The staff was knowledgeable and guided us the entire time, making sure both the guests and the monkeys were safe and comfortable.

Punta Cana Exclusive Adults-Only Snorkel with Food and Drinks

AkPops, Mar 2026

Incredible Experience

I went into this experience expecting some fun snorkeling and a lunch. It was so much more. After our guide Jorge got us onto the boat he introduced the crew and the experience began. There was music and drinks and everyone was laughing and joking. We got to the first snorkeling area and there were so many fish, they do bait some to give you a more up close experience, but there are a ton of fish anyways. Then we got back on the boat and went to a beach on an island where they opened up coconuts on the beach and made drinks. Then we moved on to another snorkeling area and ate lunch on the boat. It was delicious! I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who wants not only snorkeling but an interactive and entertaining day with wonderful people. I will be doing this trip again next time I am here. Absolutely incredible!

Half-Day: 4x4 ATV, Water Cave, Macao Beach and Dominican Culture

Boogie Woogie

Really fantastic experience, we certainly got the right kind of messy in the boogies but the coffee tasting and shops, the water caves and Macao Beach were absolutely stunning. Highlight of the trip - get used to saying no to the locals but please do support the community in what you enjoy. The coffee is delicious!

Saona Island small group and relax - luxury catamaran

Sherri_D, Jan 2026

Saona Island with Quetzal

It was an amazing tour from start to finish. Service was offered fluently in English, French, Spanish. We had zero issues with any aspects of coordinating transportation to and from our hotel. It was all done for us. We just had to show up at our hotel gate. The boat was perfect. There were only 26 participants in the tour with ample room to spread out and make yourself comfortable. I struggle with neck and back issues, and had no difficulty tolerating the catamaran ride. There is a full washroom on board. The snacks and meal were fantastic. Unlimited rum and beer/ beverages all day. Saona island was stunning. We had a great massage on the beach. We only wish we would’ve had a little more cash on us so we could’ve indulged in a longer treatment. The price of the massage ranged from $50-$90 per person. Everything was well organized. We felt safe and well taken care of all day long. We made many new friends from all around the world. Thank you for a wonderful experience. We highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to journey to Saona island.
