This experience is a way...

This experience is a way to really get a feel about the D.R. culture and explore the ancient city with the history along with the three eyes national park. Our tour guide was very accommodating and informative. A smaller group setting was an amazing experience. Highly recommend!

El Chavon and Sanoa Island

I didn’t find Sanoa island to be great of a place as described. Coral reef like and not as beautiful of a beach as described. The whole lunch thing is alright, but what a cluster f*** to get beach chairs unless your the first tour. El Chavon Mediterranean town was amazing and beautiful in every way and was not packed for end of September, which was a delight! Otherwise, everything else from our tour guides was great!

Long day of travel for a little snorkeling and beach time.

Tour guide was great. Transportation was well organized and on time. It was a full 12 hour day for us but worth it. So much to look at during ride that time passed quickly. We were one of few English speaking people on this excursion but our guide spoke many languages and accommodated all languages. Snorkeling was fun, could have used a bit of guidance.. music on boat was loud with dancing. Families and baby were also on board. Area on Catalina island how ever is not well kept up. So many people, lots of garbage around. That being said all employees were great. Tour of Altos De Chavon was beautiful!
