Top day out with so many fantastic whale sightings

Sarah_C, Mar 2026

There was a delay in getting picked up but I understand this was not the fault of the tour operator. Quite a long bus journey to where we met the boat, but snacks, water, tea/coffee provided. Amazing sightings of the whales, will stay with me forever & got to stand at front of boat to get best view. Lots of sightings but hard to get pics as difficult to tell where they would surface!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. We truly appreciate your understanding regarding the pickup delay, and we are very happy to know that, despite the long journey, the experience was worthwhile for you. We love knowing that you were able to enjoy so many unforgettable moments during the day. Encounters like these are never exactly the same twice, which makes them feel even more special. Thank you again for choosing us and for sharing your experience. We hope to welcome you again on another adventure in the Dominican Republic. Warm regards, Sther Travels & Tours

Boat trip was great, crew...

Andrew_B, Feb 2026

Boat trip was great, crew were excellent spotters. Coach transfer awful, multiple delays on way there. Tour guide, obviously a few rums in, decided to try and make it a party bus on way back. Music put on at a deafening volume and ignored requests to turn it down. 3 stars for the whale watching experience only.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Dear Andrew, Thank you sincerely for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re truly happy to know that you enjoyed the whale watching experience and that our boat crew made a positive impression. Our team takes great pride in spotting and respecting these incredible animals, so your kind words about that part of the tour mean a lot to us. At the same time, we’re genuinely sorry to hear that the transfer experience did not meet your expectations. Delays and an overly loud atmosphere on the return journey are certainly not the level of comfort we aim to provide. We understand how important a smooth and relaxing transfer is, especially after such a special experience at sea. Please know that your comments have been shared with our operations team. We take feedback like yours seriously and will address the music volume and onboard atmosphere to ensure all guests feel comfortable and respected throughout the entire journey. We appreciate your honest review, as it helps us improve and refine the full experience — from pickup to drop-off. Warm regards, Sther Travels & Tours
