Upon booking, I received an email stating that a pickup time would be provided for my clients prior to the tour. When pick up time was not communicated, my clients called and were told that their tour had been canceled and a refund would not be provided. They offered to reschedule the tour, but the rescheduled time did not work for my client' schedule. CanaGo tours still refused to give them a refund. Because of this experience, the lack of communication, and the poor customer service, I cannot recommend this tour operator.
Dear Christin, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We would like to clarify a few important points regarding this situation. Our team requests that clients contact us at least 24 hours prior to the tour, as pickup times are approximate and require confirmation. In this case, your clients reached out on the same morning of the scheduled service. Our records indicate that the pickup information was provided. However, your clients had other plans and ultimately decided to cancel the tour on the same day. As stated in our policies, same-day cancellations and no-shows are non-refundable. Additionally, our driver arrived at the hotel lobby at the scheduled time, but your clients were not present. We always strive to provide clear communication and a high level of service to all our guests. We encourage readers to also consider our previous reviews, which reflect the positive experiences of the vast majority of our clients. We regret any misunderstanding and remain available to assist with future bookings under the appropriate coordination.
Such a great all around tour! The food was yummy and seeing the animals, then enjoying the ocean was a favorite. The kids especially loved the party on the katakamaran!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the full experience from the delicious food and amazing animal encounters to relaxing by the ocean. It makes us especially happy to know the kids had such a great time at the catamaran party that’s always a highlight! We truly appreciate you sharing your experience and hope to welcome you and your family again soon for another unforgettable adventure.
Nice experience, liked the most the lagoon part which we thought it would have been nice to stay longer and explore more lagoons but overall worth it.
Thank you for your kind feedback! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the experience, especially the lagoon part, it’s definitely a favorite. We appreciate your suggestion about spending more time there and will take it into consideration. Hope to welcome you again soon!

Perfect day! Rene was the perfect guide for a day of discovery and fun. We started at the environmental center and learned about how they are saving the bees and diminishing coral. We visited a place where they protect turtles and then headed to an amazingly refreshing cenote. After lunch we boarded the catamaran and continued the fun and laughter with Rene. We went snorkeling, had some cocktails and then swam in a natural pool which was really great for everyone since it wasn’t too deep. It was a wonderful day.
Hi CeCeB71, Thank you so much for your beautiful review! We’re delighted to hear you had a perfect day with us. Rene will be thrilled to know he helped make your experience so memorable — he truly loves what he does! It’s wonderful that you enjoyed learning about our environmental efforts, visiting the turtle sanctuary, and refreshing in the cenote. We’re also so glad the catamaran, snorkeling, cocktails, and natural pool added to the fun and relaxation of your day. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you back for more discovery, laughter, and adventure! 🌞🌊🌴
The Blue lagoon and catamaran were great. The tour company did not come to pick us up and when we come then they made us take a taxi. They did pay for the taxi, but it should have been communicated to us before the pick up time. The group then arrived to the Eco center late and were not given a full tour. The tour guides took great care of us once we arrived, the catamaran crew even delivers beer to you when swimming at the natural pool.
Hi Katharine, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very happy to hear you enjoyed the Blue Lagoon, the catamaran cruise, and the care our team provided once you arrived — especially the catamaran crew! We sincerely apologize for the pickup issue and the lack of communication beforehand. That should not have happened, and we understand how frustrating it can be, especially when it affects the timing of the tour. We appreciate your patience, and we will make sure this is addressed with our transportation partners to prevent it from happening again. We’re glad the rest of the experience was enjoyable, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a smoother, fully seamless tour in the future. Thank you again for your honest review!
This tour was a great combination of education and experiences. At the Punta Cana Ecological Reserve, we learned about local efforts to protect, increase, and/or preserve local bees, iguanas, birds, mangroves, and coral. We also saw some of the effort going into finding uses for the invasive mounds of sargassum seaweed that wash up on the islands shores. The tour further included a swim in a beautiful cenote, a tasty lunch, and a fun sailing excursion with a reasonably sized group gathered from several other tours. The water was beautiful and the snorkeling was good. Hanging out on the sand bar was too. It was our first tour with this sort of pick up / drop off scenario, and it went pretty well for a first experience - it requires a little patience and attentiveness for everyone to be gathered and delivered to the correct places.
Thank you very much, Kendra, for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to know you enjoyed the mix of education and experiences on the tour — from learning about local conservation efforts to relaxing in the cenote and out on the water. It’s wonderful to hear you had a great time snorkeling, sailing, and enjoying the lunch. We also appreciate your kind note about the pickup and drop-off process — your feedback helps future guests know what to expect. We’d be delighted to welcome you back for another adventure whenever you return to Punta Cana!
When signing up for the excursion we were told we would be picked up from our resort lobby at 7am. It was actually at the casino that we were picked up & over an hr later. But once we got there, our tour guides were great & very informative. We were all over the reserve exploring & we had an amazing lunch cooked for us. We really enjoyed the crystal clear waters of the ceonote. There was several pools on the tour but we only got to enjoy 1. But the party boat was really enjoyable. It was great to get out into the clear waters considering how much seaweed was on the beaches. It was a great party boat & they kept the rum coming. We would definitely do this again.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We’re happy to know that you enjoyed the tour, the lunch, and especially the crystal-clear cenote and party boat. We sincerely apologize for the delay and confusion with the pick-up location we’ll make sure to improve communication so this doesn’t happen again. It’s wonderful to hear that despite this, you had such a great time exploring, relaxing, and enjoying the atmosphere. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again soon for another adventure!
