Amazing ! - Amazing experience ! Beautiful island. Great tour guides. Clean charter bus with A.C. . Tour guide was providing historical facts about the island . Also spoke many different languages so everyone on the trip could understood him which I thought was nice. Wish the stay on the island was a little longer than 2 hours. Suggest to bring your own water/drinks and snacks for the island itself as you cannot purchase anything there.

10/10 recommend - So nice. Guide was amazing at explaining Dominican history and where we were. The waters are crystal clear and recommend you do the snorkeling with the guide. I would say take some cash so you can tip by service since that’s where their main source of income is from. If you are going with you her children the waters do get choppy on the way back so maybe opt for the catamaran. But I think the speed boat was sooo much fun. On the way back we stopped and bought some souvenirs that once we got to our hotel we forget. In a couple of bourse I had communicating this and they had found our bag and are returning it to us. 10/10

Just short of awesome - Everything was a good experience.m, the island is so beautiful. I wasn’t a fan of the speed boat but that’s my preference. The driver did a great job driving the boat and he did a few tricks. Food and drink at the island could be a better experience. This is on the less luxurious side that’s why I gave it a 4.

Good tour - The guide was very knowledgeable and informative. Paradise island was beautiful. The driver went to the wrong hotel when picking us up and we had to wait almost an hour to join the tour.
