Soana Island

Amazing! Highlight of my trip. The driver (Mickey Mouse) and the tour guide (Cristian) were amazing. Worth the money and I would do it again

Amazing!

The experience was amazing! Admission fee was fare and the food was so good. I think the length of the trip was the perfect amount of time and the stop at the swimming area before going to Saona island was beautiful!

Dude, where’s my car?

The initial communication was great. I confirmed the day prior and was told my pick up time would be 6:50am. I didn’t get picked up until nearly 8 am. The city we toured first was cute, but I wouldn’t do it again. The island was absolutely gorgeous and the party boat back was fun! The island saved the rating.

Saona Island, awesome photographers

Great tour, Guide Alex and driver Juan were really good, despite all the logistics. We were a large group, a full bus, and it took a lot of time to collect everyone. Boat rides take a very long time too, we had 45 minutes to play in the water and 3 hours in Saona Island, including lunch (nothing special). The best part of the tour were the two photographers that come along in the boat and took awesome pictures with DSLR for a fee. It was a very enjoyable day, with fun people and workers trying to make their best. The Island is wonderfully beautiful. I recommend.

Abandon a client on the island

Worst company I've seen in the world, I don't recommend. To get started. I booked the tour and on the site there was a map mentioning a search location near my accommodation, when marked this place on the map, the company contacted and said that I would not search this place and that I should go to another further away. and I went and arrived with 5 minutes delay. Which I find reasonable. After the tour started and everything went well until we arrived on Saona Island. The guide Cristian "one of the worst if not the worst I've ever seen" marked 3pm for us to return to leave. I arrived at the place 2h35min and there was no one else there. I searched for 20 minutes and found no one else on my trip. So I asked for help from an employee of another company who gave me a ride back to Porto from where we left for Saona Island. Upon arriving at the venue I contacted the company who sent someone else to pick me up and take me to the bus. When I got near the bus I again found the guide Cristian who asked me what had happened and also said that I was guilty and that to the screams. I mean abandoned me on the island and I managed to get out with the help of other people and he even said that I am guilty. The detail is that I was on the side of the departure point on the island and the bus was still waiting for me in Porto. First time in my life I've seen so much neglect. I jumped out and book with another company

Turquoise water and relaxation on the agenda.

A wonderful day. The stop in the lagoon/natural pool and then towards Isla Saona was magical. I think we could stay a little longer on the island; it is beautiful. The bus ride is a bit long but allows you to finish the night in the morning and gather strength before dinner in the late afternoon. Thank you to the guide who was very friendly.
