We absolutely loved our private tour to Saona Island on the Catamaran, but what makes this experience easy is how seamless it is, from start to finish! Jenny with booking made sure everything was smooth through booking, easy breezy! The Crew members and our tour guide Rafael was absolutely amazing and with a party of 28 people none of us ever had an empty cup! They danced and made our experience priceless! Highly recommend! Thank you all for the great memories and the great service!
Had such an amazing experience using Punta Cana tours both the excursion booked through them was amazing. Wasn't certain when booking online but the pickup was on apt time. Would 100% recommend.
We rented a private catamaran with Punta Cana Tours as a welcome event for our wedding and had the best time. They were very accommodating, picking us up from Santo Domingo and transporting almost 60 of us to Bayahibe for an early start to our tour. The staff were kind, and constantly kept the party going. They come highly recommended!
My experience on the private yacht charter with Punta Cana Tours was just amazing! We were there with a family of 25 celebrating our loved ones 20th vowel renewal in the DR. The excitement began from the moment Rafael, our shuttle pick up and guide throughout our time on the yacht, picked us up from our hotel lobby. He educated us on some interesting historical facts along the way. Once we arrived, we were greeted with an amazing crew who were attentive, friendly, and accommodating throughout our journey to Saona Island, which included a stop at the blue waters of a nearby sand bar. We had a private area to lounge le on the islands beach as well as a tasty and fulfilling lobster feast! I’d definitely recon’s Punta Cana Tours for your next trip! Richard
The ease of purchasing prior to our flight was great so we could plan of time spent there. Although it was an 8hr, we got through things we wanted prior to and was able to leave earlier, but we had to ask if this was an option- it was provided as one. Only thing I’d suggest on putting on the description, that you’re packing up at multiple hotel locations so the ride is longer than 30-40mins, it was more toward an hour. Can bring water bottles but it can be kept in a locker that you need to purchase a lock for $5 non refundable. Overall fun experience & memories made which was our goal!
