Featured review
Every excursion in DR takes a long time to get going. I appreciate the effort every company puts in to getting all these people together so we can see and do some fun stuff. We went to a souvenir shop, which is how pretty much every excursion starts. This was my 2nd favorite excursion on my vacation and my sons number 1. My number 1, no one tried to sell us anything the entire time. Gotta hand it to the DR people, they can hustle like a mofo. We had a great time and got a good lunch.

Pickup time was at 7:10 am and we picked up other people along the way which is normal. The driver was super nice and communicative. Well we stopped at what they said was a meeting point by 0800 and then got on a bus where there was massive miscommunication and easily angered bus driver. Then it continued with stops and driving for the next 2 hrs. And when we stopped again we looked at the reviews that said there were gonna be two additional stops that are 25-30 minutes long. And the bus was tight and small. Everyone was sitting on top of each other. No communication with the company hosting this event. And when my family member was having a panic attack about the situation they argued with us to get back on the bus cause they couldn’t understand why we wouldn’t want this to be our whole day.
Excursions is about a total of 12 hours! You’re on the beach for about 3 of those. The bus ride and the boat ride you will be packed like sardines for multiple long periods of time. Now the island itself is beautiful!! Would I do this excursion again? No. I would suggest maybe private transportation to the island!
Very long transfer process took over 3 hours to get to the Boat that transfers you to the island. The island was nice. However many families would be frustrated with the several hours on both ends to transport. Very little info is given on what is happening. Drinks at the stopover and the island are warm rum and coke - water available as well, nothing else, no ice.
Response from Host, Sep 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed Saona Island. We apologize for the long transfer, lack of information during the journey, and the limited drink options. Your comments have been shared with our team to improve transportation, communication, and service for future guests.
Overall was good but “open bar” was cheap rum and coke ONLY. The buffet also was less than desirable. A group of haitians cut in line and when we called them out, their ring leader threatened to fight my husband. Nobody from the excursion stepped in. We tipped the team on the catamaran. We had to take a speed boat back that splashed water on us the whole 45 or so min ride back. They stopped shy of the shore to walk around with a bottle with a hole in it and going to each individual person and putting it in their face expecting a tip.
Response from Host, Sep 2026
Dear Cindy, thank you for sharing. We’re truly sorry about the altercation, lack of staff support, and uncomfortable return ride. This doesn't reflect our standards. We are reviewing this with our team and addressing the tip issue. Please contact us directly to discuss further.
This was a terrible experience,from start to finish.After pick up we drove to a busy petrol station where a lot of mini buses and coaches parked up.We were there for about 45mins,before the driver asked up to go onto another bus that was parked up.....we waited another 10-15 minutes before we drove off.
Finally we arrived at the port and we met our guide,who seemed friendly.as the day went on he was so rude to a lot of the people in the group,shouting and been quite aggressive.After an long day he still had a bad attitude when people were getting on the speed boat.
At the port we were told to get on coach 56,when I asked if he was sure she started shouting and telling me I must listen....I got off the coach,only to be told by another tourists our coach is number47. All the passengers on our coach found the whole experience to be unenjoyable.
Response from Host, Sep 2026
We’re sorry this was your perception; however, we cannot confirm the events as described. Transfers and vehicle changes are part of the established logistics for coordinating guests from different hotels. Our guides are expected to treat all guests respectfully and professionally, and aggressive behavior is not consistent with our service standards. We also cannot confirm the coach information mentioned. We take these allegations seriously and appreciate your feedback.
Our Most Traumatizing Excursion Experience Ever — DO NOT RECOMMEND!
This was, without a doubt, the most traumatizing excursion experience we have ever had.
From the very beginning, getting to the island was a complete fiasco. We were picked up at 7:30 AM, but we didn’t arrive at the area where we needed to board the catamaran until almost 12:00 PM. Along the way, we stopped at a gas station and sat there for nearly an hour. While our driver was out of the vehicle, another large tour bus hit our van. What made matters worse was that our driver never acknowledged the accident—not even an apology or an explanation.
When we finally arrived at the catamaran area, we were introduced to our excursion guide, who referred to himself as “Black Banana.” From the beginning, his communication was extremely abrupt, and he was unnecessarily rude to a lot of the guests including me when he was asked questions.
We then had to walk approximately half a mile to get to the boat. Once on board, a lot of us ended up having to sit on the floor in the heat.
We also were not informed anywhere in the fine print that we needed to bring our own towels for the beach. We assumed towels would be provided since this was an organized beach excursion, which has been our experience with other excursions.
When we finally reached the beach, we were served lunch, and honestly, the food was not appetizing. There were huge flies and bees swarming around us and all over the buffet, which made us very hesitant to eat.
Then came the restroom situation.
My husband went to use the restroom and came back telling me that you had to ask for toilet tissue. He was even asked what he needed to do #1 or #2. After using the one available stall, he had to come back outside, get a bucket of water, and carry it back inside to flush the toilet.
And the handwashing situation was just as disturbing. Everyone was expected to use the same barrel of water to wash their hands—and we also saw people using that same water for drinking. Absolutely disgusting!.
We eventually decided to try to enjoy the beach and get into the water, but that was another disappointment. There were SO many shells and rocks that getting to the sandy portion required walking over them. It was extremely uncomfortable, and we honestly wouldn’t be surprised if people were getting cut.
We only spent about two hours at the beach, and honestly, we were perfectly fine with leaving because the entire experience was miserable.
We finally made it back to our resort around 8:00 PM, meaning we were gone for approximately 12 hours. We were under the impression that the excursion would last approximately 6–8 hours. Because of the extreme delay, we also missed our dinner reservations at the resort.
And to make matters worse, this was our last day in the Dominican Republic, which made the experience even more disappointing.
Long story short: WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS EXCURSION!
Save yourself the time, frustration, and money. What should have been a fun day on an island turned into an exhausting and extremely unpleasant experience from beginning to end. There are plenty of other excursions to choose from—this is NOT one we would ever do again.
Please note we have respect for the Dominican culture. We thoroughly enjoyed the resort! We will be back!!! This was a lesson learned.
Response from Host, Sep 2026
We’re sorry to read this review; however, we cannot confirm several of the events as described. Transfers, meeting points and travel times may vary due to traffic and daily logistics. Our guides are expected to maintain professional and respectful conduct at all times. Towels are not advertised as included, and beach conditions are natural and outside our control. We also cannot confirm the claims regarding the facilities, food handling, water, or the alleged vehicle incident as described. Guest safety and proper service remain priorities throughout our operations. We appreciate your feedback and are glad you otherwise enjoyed your visit to the Dominican Republic.
We had an amazing time on our Saona Island trip! It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The trip does take the entire day, so plan to be out all day, but it was absolutely worth it.
The beach was beautiful with clear water, and the different stops along the way made the day even more enjoyable. Our tour guide, Jon, was very helpful, friendly, and made sure everyone had a great experience.
I highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting the Dominican Republic. Just keep in mind that it is a long day with multiple stops, but the memories and experience are well worth it!
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We are delighted to hear that you had an amazing time on your Saona Island trip and that you enjoyed the beautiful beaches, crystal-clear waters, and the different stops along the way.
We truly appreciate your kind words about Jon. We will be happy to share your feedback with him, as he always strives to make every guest’s experience special.
Thank you for recommending us to future visitors of the Dominican Republic. We hope to welcome you again soon for another unforgettable adventure!
Amazing experience, just bring money for tips because everyone was asking for tips. Hotel pickup was fast and on time.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Hello, thank you for your review, we hope see you next time.
Very disappointed… climbing from one boat to another I broke my toe… never said anything about moving from one boat to the next several times!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
We are very sorry to hear about your injury and regret that your experience did not meet your expectations.
Safety is very important to us, and transfers between boats are part of the logistics of certain excursions depending on sea and docking conditions. This information is normally provided in the tour description, but we apologize if it was not clear in your case or if you felt unprepared for it.
We hope you are recovering well and sincerely wish you a speedy recovery. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve communication and guest experience in the future.
The transportation was smooth, well-organized, and the staff were friendly throughout the trip. The highlight of the excursion was definitely the pool in the middle of the ocean, which was a unique and enjoyable experience.
However, I would not highly recommend this tour due to concerns about cleanliness. The washrooms on the island were extremely dirty and unpleasant to use. Additionally, the lunch buffet was not individually portioned, requiring guests to serve themselves. I observed some tourists handling food in ways that did not appear hygienic. Unfortunately, I developed diarrhea after visiting Saona Island, which negatively impacted my overall experience.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us.
We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the transportation, our staff's service, and especially the natural pool in the middle of the ocean. It is truly one of the most special highlights of Saona Island.
At the same time, we are very sorry to learn about the issues you encountered regarding the cleanliness of the island facilities and your concerns about the buffet service. We sincerely appreciate your feedback, as it helps us identify areas where improvements can be made. Please note that some facilities on the island are managed by third parties, but we will certainly share your comments with the responsible teams.
We are especially sorry to hear that you felt unwell after your visit. Your health and well-being are very important to us, and we regret that your overall experience was affected.
Thank you again for your honest review and for recognizing the positive aspects of the excursion. We truly value your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with an even better experience in the future.
We wish you a speedy recovery and all the best.
Just don't do this tour, and avoid Saona in general. It is a tourist trap. The beach is rocky, the "natural pool" is a sand bank, extremely close to the beach with 50cm deep water or so. All the starfish were already dead (killed by tourists) when we were there. Not really that interesting that I would waste a day for this.
Response from Host, May 2026
We are very sorry that your experience did not fully meet your expectations.
We would like to clarify that the natural pool at Saona Island is a famous natural sandbank in the Caribbean, well known for its shallow crystal-clear waters where visitors can relax and enjoy the tropical surroundings.
Regarding the starfish, we completely understand your concern. Currently, local authorities and tour operators continuously work to protect marine life and educate visitors about the importance of not touching or removing starfish in order to preserve the natural ecosystem.
Even so, we are glad you had the opportunity to visit one of the most beautiful and visited destinations in the Dominican Republic, and we truly appreciate you sharing your feedback. Your comments help us continue improving the experience for future travelers.
We wish you a wonderful vacation and send you our best regards. 🌴
Very bad, and a terrible experience. Would not recommend to ANYONE. First of all, we were picked up at 7:00 am, but only reached there at 1 pm. The experience getting was terrible, and not worth it. There was so much delay in picking and dropping passengers. It was overall a mess, and significantly disorganized and disappointing. We had to wait hours just to get on the boat, and start the ride to the island, which itself took a hour. Once we finally reached there, the island itself was very boring and dissatisfying. However, the worst was just yet to come. The boat ride took 2 hours to get back on shore. Then, we had to wait for 30 mins again. Once the bus had come, we were made to wait for 2 hours inside the bus! We had to sit for two hours not even moving. This was because of a dispute with a passenger, which the company terribly handled. In addition, the bus driver himself was very slow in driving. In the end, we had reached the resort at 9, when they promised that we would get there at 6:30. Imagine waiting all of this time wet and full of sand. The management was dreadful, and therefore, DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Thank you for sharing your experience. We are sorry the activity did not meet your expectations. At times, operational factors and external conditions may cause delays, with safety and group logistics always being our priority. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration to continue improving our service.
Every excursion in DR takes a long time to get going. I appreciate the effort every company puts in to getting all these people together so we can see and do some fun stuff. We went to a souvenir shop, which is how pretty much every excursion starts. This was my 2nd favorite excursion on my vacation and my sons number 1. My number 1, no one tried to sell us anything the entire time. Gotta hand it to the DR people, they can hustle like a mofo. We had a great time and got a good lunch.
We arrived at the meeting point in our own car, but the company was one hour late. Then we had to drive for two more hours to get to the boat, and on the way they left us for 30 minutes at their local souvenir shop so we would spend money there. I didn’t want to stop, but nobody asked me, and this stop was not mentioned in the tour program.
Later, we had to wait 1 hour and 30 minutes for our boat, while other groups were getting on their boats and leaving for the island right away. The guide kept saying “one minute,” but it went on endlessly. They also didn’t give me a life jacket on the boat because there were not enough, and I don’t know how to swim. (I have photos and videos with timestamps showing everything.)
Then they stopped in the water for swimming, and later took us to Saona Island — but it was the worst beach I have ever seen in my life. There were bottles and containers everywhere. The lunch they gave us tasted spoiled, probably because it had been sitting in the sun for too long, and it likely caused an infection — both my boyfriend and I had diarrhea the next day, which was horrible.
After that, we spent 2 hours on the boat going back and then more time on the bus. The guide told us we would return after 3 hours, but in the end the trip took 8 hours.
But the worst part was that they dropped me off in the middle of the road in the dark, not even on the side, literally at a traffic light so I had to run across three lanes of traffic. I had no reflective clothing and had to walk on the highway in the dark to reach my car.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
We sincerely regret that your experience did not meet your expectations and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.
We would like to clarify several important points. First, tour schedules to Isla Saona are approximate, as they depend on external factors such as traffic conditions, port coordination, and weather, which may cause unavoidable delays. At no point was there any intention to delay the service deliberately.
The stop at the local souvenir shop is part of the standard logistical itinerary in the area, commonly used by multiple tour operators for coordination and facility access. This stop is not mandatory, and participation is never conditioned on making purchases. We regret if this was not clearly understood.
Regarding the waiting time at the marina, this is due to boat assignments managed by port authorities, a process that is not fully under our control. Concerning life jackets, we would like to emphasize that all our boats comply with current maritime safety regulations, and passenger safety is always our top priority.
Isla Saona is a protected natural reserve, and beach conditions may vary depending on tides and daily visitor volume. Puntaca Tours has no control over waste left by third parties; however, we actively collaborate with local operators and authorities in environmental awareness efforts.
All meals are prepared on the same day and follow established sanitary and food safety protocols. We did not receive similar reports from other guests on that date, so it is not possible to conclusively link the symptoms mentioned to the lunch provided.
Finally, regarding the drop-off location, our drivers unload passengers only at pre-established and authorized drop-off points according to the approved routes. We sincerely regret if the location caused discomfort; however, there is no record of any passenger being left in unsafe conditions by our staff.
We remain committed to continuous improvement and responsible service. We encourage guests to contact us directly for any further clarification, as we are always open to constructive dialogue.
Kind regards,
Puntaca Tours

Do not book with this company . We had a tour on October 2nd and they told us because of seaweed they had to cancel. Viator did refund us our money. Then the company contacted us directly and we agreed to go the following day to a different one VIP and sent them the money via PayPal . They never showed up . We have been trying to get our money back since the same day and they always gives us the run around . Please DONT TRUST THIS COMPANY. I will be also reporting them to Viator . Here are some screenshots, but there’s way more of them telling us they are working on it and never send our refund or answer our calls .

Lamentamos sinceramente lo ocurrido y entendemos su molestia.
Queremos aclarar que la devolución de su dinero fue aprobada inmediatamente por nuestra empresa cuando Viator se comunicó con nosotros tras la cancelación por causa de las la hora ya que usted reservo a la 11:00 AM y solo teníamos salida a la 7:00 AM
Posteriormente, usted realizó una nueva reserva con otra empresa llamada “C. Cana Tour”, la cual no está afiliada ni relacionada con nosotros. Según indica, usted efectuó un pago por PayPal, método que nuestra empresa nunca utiliza para cobrar a nuestros clientes.
Lamentamos profundamente la situación y la confusión generada, pero le recomendamos para futuras reservas verificar siempre que la empresa esté registrada oficialmente en Viator o GetYourGuide antes de realizar cualquier pago fuera de la plataforma.
Nuestro compromiso sigue siendo ofrecer experiencias seguras, confiables y transparentes a todos nuestros clientes.
Atentamente,

Servicio al Cliente
This was terrible from the minute I booked. Called to ensure we would be on the same boat as our friends who booked too and no one could confirm. We were told a pick up time of 0700 then received text messages later in the day from several different numbers in WhatsApp for a pick up time of 0830. No matter how much we tried to clarify could not get a straight response. Our drive showed up to the wrong resort to pick us up. We got dropped off 45 minutes before the boat was ready for us. One man approached the group and put a yellow string around each wrist to indicate our tour. A different man came and took them off and put a green string on our wrists. There were not enough seats on the boat for as many as they let on, the boat toilet didn't work, we all got sick from the beach lunch which had flies all over it, our shuttle back ran out of rum and water, our water taxi to take us off the catamaran was an hour late ao we sat on the boat with no way to get to shore. Then our arranged driver was an hour late to pick us up to take us back to the resort. It was a terrible experience, no customer service, and left our group stranded and very scared waiting in the dark for our ride uncertain if he would even come. Do not book this excursion!!!! Pay the extra money and book through your resort!!!

We apologize for the inconveniences you mentioned from the confusion about the pickup time and lack of communication, to the logistical issues during the tour and the delay in your return transportation.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, as it helps us identify critical areas that need improvement. We are taking immediate action with our team and partners to ensure this does not happen again.
We travelled as a couple and really enjoyed thw experience from the minute we stepped in the boat. The staff were excellent and very good English
terrible experience, they changed our catamaran for a motorboat, in which they packed us in like sardines, and they decided that it was cheaper for them to take us on fishing boats

Agradecemos sinceramente que se haya tomado el tiempo de compartir su experiencia. Nos alegra saber que disfrutó de la belleza de las aguas y la playa de Isla Saona, pero lamentamos mucho los inconvenientes que menciona sobre la logística y los costos.
Respecto al recogida en el hotel, queremos aclarar que algunas zonas fuera del perímetro estándar pueden incurrir en un cargo adicional por transporte privado, aunque revisaremos su caso específico para asegurar que la información en Viator sea lo más clara posible y evitar confusiones futuras.
Sobre el tema de las propinas, nuestro equipo tiene estrictamente prohibido exigirlas; estas son siempre voluntarias y un gesto opcional por un servicio excepcional. Tomaremos medidas inmediatas para recordar esto a nuestros guías y chóferes. Asimismo, entendemos su frustración con el horario de salida; estamos trabajando para optimizar los tiempos de recogida y que la estancia en la playa sea lo más extensa posible, tal como nuestros viajeros merecen.
Valoramos su honestidad, ya que nos ayuda a mejorar la calidad de nuestro servicio. Esperamos tener la oportunidad de recibirle nuevamente y brindarle la experiencia de 5 estrellas que nos esforzamos por ofrecer.

Gracias por compartir tu experiencia. Lamentamos sinceramente cualquier malentendido o inconveniente relacionado con el almuerzo de mariscos durante el tour VIP a Isla Saona.
Nuestro paquete VIP incluye una experiencia exclusiva con transporte en lancha rápida, visita a playas vírgenes, piscina natural, guía bilingüe y almuerzo frente al mar. En algunos casos, el almuerzo estándar incluye pescado, pollo y cerdo, mientras que los mariscos (como langosta o camarones) pueden estar incluidos en un plato típico llamado paella, Ios platos de solo mariscos están sujetos a disponibilidad y requieren de preparación, por ende los chefs de la isla qué no son parte de nuestra empresa cobran por el servicio.
Si en tu reserva se especificaba que los mariscos estaban incluidos sin costo adicional, te pedimos que nos compartas el comprobante o la confirmación para poder revisar el caso y ofrecerte una solución justa. Valoramos tu confianza y queremos asegurarnos de que cada cliente reciba lo que se le prometió.
Agradecemos tu comprensión y estamos a tu disposición para resolver esta situación de forma rápida y transparente.
