Qué esperar

Total relaxation awaits on this full day cruise to Saona Island's dazzling shores. You'll explore this tropical daydream Caribbean Isle, soaking up the sun and the vibrant colours while you stroll along palm-shaded beaches. First up is a coastal tour of Cotubanama National Park, then you'll stop at a natural pool for a dip before heading to the beach for lunch and free time. Ramon, one of our expert guides, says, ‘Our priority is to protect our pristine environment and all the species that make Saona so special. We were the first country to protect manatees by law, and we have a turtle conservation programme here on the island, too.'After a relaxing cruise over to Saona, the sightseeing can begin in earnest. You'll cruise the shoreline of the Cotubanama National Park while your local guide points out the island wildlife. See the rocks of El Peñón, and then glide through the Catuano channel. Next, it's time to cool off in the azure water of the natural pools, formed by sandbanks in the open sea. The water is such a tempting shade of blue you won't be able to resist.Docking at one of Saona Island's fabulous beaches, you'll step off the boat for some beach time. There's the Caribbean for paddling, soft white sand to dip your toes in, and a volleyball pitch to play on. Or you could take the simplest option and just stretch out in the sun. After your tasty buffet lunch is served, there's more free time to enjoy the magical setting. What is the itinerary for this experience?The itinerary for this experience is...- 6:30am to 7:30am – pick-up from your hotel- 8:15am to 9:15am – transfer to Bayahibe- 9:15am to 11:30am – catamaran cruise to Saona Island- 11:30am to 2:30pm – relax and sunbathe on deck- 12:30pm to 1:30pm – buffet lunch on the beach- 1:30pm to 3:00pm – free time on Saona Island- 3:00pm to 3:30pm – visit the Caribbean's largest natural pool- 3:30pm to 4:15pm – speedboat transfer back to Bayahibe- 5:30pm to 6:00pm – return transfer to your hotel Please note, the times and schedule may vary on the day

Both the fast boat and catamaran journey's were great. Beach was beautiful but getting in the sea was tricky, lots of rocks. A decent beach bar and waiter service would be a good improvement to the trip. Maybe a little longer on the beach too. Overall a good day out and great for photo's.

The natural pool and Soana are absolutely beautiful. Be warned this is a long excursion day with a lot of travel time. The buffet food on the island was okay at best. Extra charge for the pina coladas and coconut waters on the island, but they are worth it. This is more of a views and relaxation excursion than activity oriented. Overall would recommend.

The speed boat was decent. Overall the whole package wasn’t what we were expecting, I didn’t enjoy being charged $110 for some basic photos. I didn’t enjoy the flies on our food. I didn’t enjoy the lack of communication regarding pick up: for example what are we looking for on arrival. There wer so many buses and trucks coming into the reception area and it was so stressful. Basically the whole trip was catered for a hen do that was attending. Sexual talk/dances when children are present.

Super leuke dagtrip met een geweldige gids. Je bent veel onderweg maar je wordt wel vermaakt. Op de weg terug konden we nog zwemmen in helder water . Minder was dat er aan het strand van saona stenen op de boden lagen. Wij hadden gelukkig wel waterschoenen aan maar dan nog was het moeilijk om te lopen.

This was awful . Picked up by a small coach, sat at the side of a motorway for over 30min, then transferred to another coach. The lack in communication was terrible and a lot of time wasted. Then packed into a speedboat boat like sardines, It wasn’t a nice experience at all. Lunch in the ‘beach club’ was more a wooden shack. Food was lovely, but the beach was messy, full of rubbish and not the paradise advertised. Toilets were a health hazard and drinks sparse! H&S between boats was shocking

Experience was wonderful and swimming in a Thundersome was a first. Love our Experience however the safety issue was very bad as I had an accident which could have killed me. Having to go barefoot changing boats for a short person was hard enough but when the step down over reaches my stature I crashed to the floor off the ledge, banging my neck and head badly against the edge. I was given Ice but this wouldn't have happened in my watershoes!!

We were sold the trip and told it would be between 1 and 1.5hrs on the coach.... it ended up being 3hrs there and 3 hrs back which meant we were on the coach for over 6 hours.... we were then bullied into paying by card for photos by men who Approached us as soon as we returned from the boat trip.. the guide was very helpful and knowledgeable but overall it was a long day and we were left feeling bullied into buying things both on the island and when we returned

Was a great day and photographer was great and food was good. Day was a great experience. Only downfall is the photographer they tell you one price 80 dollars was fine but then because we use our card they charge us 120 dollar .when we said it was wrong they said they didn’t understand us but were happy to speak to us before had fine . So just to be careful when buying pictures unless you have cash .

We had to change buses half way through which involved sitting in a parking lot no parking lot 25 mins. Then the island it’s self was dirty, lot of litter, glass, we got bothered loads by people on the island, the food was covered in flies. We was looking forward to “paradise” like it’s presented it was nothing like paradise. Which cost us a lot we expected better. It was the only trip we booked for the holiday. Disappointed

This trip was nothing like had been explained to me prior to booking. It was upsell at every opportunity and my experience was not considered at all. The beach at the hotel is far better than this ‘idealistic Caribbean island ‘ that I was being transported to. Staff were not helpful trying to get in and off a boat into the sea barefoot with coral and rocks was not suitable. This trip is not worth a penny let alone the rip off cost I oaid.

There was too much sell sell sell. We were bothered from the moment we got on the island. The trip wasn't even about the island really, it was about making money. The area on the island we went to was rocky compared to when we did a similar trip 7 years ago. Couldn't go in the water as it was too rough and rocky. There was also no real organisation and alot of waiting around at multiple parts of the day.

The island was beautiful but from start to finish the whole day was a sales pitch to sell other products. I also agreed to pay $140 (already extortionate) for professional pictures that the two girls took of me and my partner, only to be charged $160 when we got to shore which i only found out about when I got back to the hotel and calculated the exchange rate from pesos, absolute scam!

The photographer experience was extremely disappointing and unprofessional. One photographer asked me for $170 for only 35 photos, and when I tried to negotiate politely, he reacted very rudely and even spat on the floor in front of us. Later, another photographer agreed to send the photos for $80, but after paying by card I was actually charged around $110, and in the end I still did not receive all the photos that were promised. This completely ruined the experience and felt very unfair and di

Die blaue Lagune mit Seesternen und Stachelrochen ist das absolute Highlight des Ausflugs! Die Katamaranfahrt ist auch sehr entspannend mit guter Musik und reichlich Getränken. Sonst wirkt der Ausflug oft etwas stressig. Das Umsteigen von Speedboot auf Katamaran und andersherum ist herausfordernd. Etwas wenig Toilettenpausen bzw. Katastrophe auf der Isla Saona. Ananas mit Pina Colada sollte man unbedingt probieren! Am Ende leider noch eine kleine Verkaufsfahrt geworden. Trotzdem toller Ausflug!

Our guide Ruben was great, spoke every language needed, pick up was organised and felt very looked after. The travel was part of the experience with the speed boat and catamaran with dancing and drinks. The island was beautiful, loads of chairs, nice food, did get approached quite often with people selling massages and jewellery but easy to turn away. All the staff on the trip were very friendly, great value for money. Recommend bringing water for the journey, and plenty of suncream.

De eerste stop bij het natuurzwembad was erg leuk en mooi (wel massaal). De stop op Saona was niet zoals ik had verwacht. Er stond enorm luide muziek op, ligbedjes stonden tegen elkaar aan en mochten niet verplaatst worden en er liepen gigantisch veel strandverkopers rond die je niet met rust lieten. Het strand was zeer massaal. De terugreis op de Catamaran was leuk, maar het animatieteam was opdringerig. Als je van relaxen houdt, is dit niet de ideale activiteit

Der Ausflug war toll. Als wir in Bayahibe angekommen sind, um mit dem Speedboot zu starten, mussten wir leider ca. 45 Minuten in der Sonne warten, bis unsere Gruppe endlich einsteigen konnte. Die Guides waren sehr nett und immer sehr bemüht. Saona ist wirklich traumhaft schön und als wir da waren nicht überlaufen. Natürlich kamen mit uns mehrere Boote an, aber es war nicht überfüllt. Das Mittagsbuffet war sehr gut. Insgesamt kann ich den Ausflug sehr empfehlen.

Didn’t like - picked up late. Waited 30 mins at halfway point awaiting coach Taken almost to Samoa by a large water taxi then had to paddle about in the water for an hour awaiting our turn to go to island. Went onto island told not to wander off told we would have around 2 hrs there. They try to sell you massages at £150 dollars but that would mean missing your lunch slot. No water available on trip please everyone take some with you. Told we could snorkel there and yes not worth it

No water on bus and on speed boat the bus driver and guide got water when we stopped at HQ the guide failed to introduce himself we had a disabled lady with us and we had to shout out to get the guide to slow down 3 times when getting from the bus to the boat I’ve been on this trip 5 times before and I’m afraid to say that this was as the worst experience I’ve had it’s a shame because the guide didn’t explain anything they didn’t hand out drinks onboard and it was supposed to be a sail boat No!

Locals were vultures we were lucky it didn’t get violent. Supposedly all drinks and food included, came home starving and thirsty. Boat ride home was fun credit to staff on that day.

Der Guide hatte die Gruppe super im Griff und sprach viele Sprache. Allerdings waren seine ersten Worte trinki trinki und shopping. Mit vielen Touristen haben wir gerechnet, so weit OK, aber dass wir auf einem Dico Boot sein werden und uns 8 Stunden Musik mit einer Lautstärke die einen Flieger als leises Gerät erscheinen lasst, damit nicht. Durch die Ohrhörer mit Nice Reduction konnte eine Gehörschaden verhindert werden. Nirgendwo steht etwas von Musik und schon gar nicht von extra lauter Musik.

Our guide Oscar was very informative and nice. We enjoyed all aspects of the tour, although it did get crowded on the Island and there wasn’t much to do there although we expected that. The food was ok, and there was only rum and coke on offering drinks wise. The speedboat ride was fun, and the catamaran was also a nice end to the tour. There was a photographer taking pictures in the natural pool and on the island but they were quite expensive to buy, and out of our price range. Overall good fun

Journey to the boat took around 4 hours as had to change coaches due to over booking (guide claimed it was due to coach breaking down) . We were all squashed in the catamaran on the way to the island. Don't feel is was value for money. Spent 1.5 hours on the island. Not much to see. Very crowded and full of people.l pushing to sell you things.

The trip was great and our guide Johnny was very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, we were on a speedboat without him and the crew lacked energy, no music or interaction at all. The island was nice, drinks were fun, and the food was okay. The return catamaran was enjoyable. Overall: 7/10.

Byliśmy drugi raz na Saonie. Pierwszy raz w 2024 roku z Itaką. Bardzo chcieliśmy powtórzyć wycieczki Saonę, Samanę i Cocobongo. Rozczarowanie nastąpiło już na pierwszej wycieczce na Saonę i nie będę owijać w bawełnę, że kolejne, zaplanowane wycieczki przez nas odbyły się już przez inną firmę. Już wyjaśniam: Dominikana i przeżycie na tej wyspie to jedno i raj dla oczu, natomiast pani przewodnik i nasza rezydentka Patrycja to jedno rozczarowanie. Brak wiedzy i profesjonalizmu.

This trip was not enjoyable at all. The travel time was 2 times what we were told, and we were totally disappointed with the experience on Soana Island - I feel like we did not even go to Soana Island. We were taken to a dirty crowded beach, full of people trying to sell us things. The food was terrible, the drinks were bad, the eating area was dirty and full of flies, the beach was crowded and there we not enough chairs for everyone.

The staff who picked us up and those that were on the boats were great, especially on the way home when they got involved with everyone up and encouraged us all to get up dancing. The food was okay but a little too basic, eg bread cut into thin slices rather than a bun, limited salad selection and pork with a lot of fat and bone, but there was plenty for everyone and it was well cooked

The trip was not clear how much of the day I would be on a coach. The “guided tour” was basic information but most annoying was how cramped the speed boat was. It was not safe as I was on a small bench with 4 adults as were all the others and there was not enough room to get the life jacket on. The catamaran return was the worst I have experienced. There were no mats and the netting was tiny , tied together and no one was brave enough to see if it held weight of an adult.

The Taxi driver at the start, drove incredibly dangerous.. pulling out head on, with cars coming the other way.. As you are an established holiday company, this was unexceptable.. Then the food was very average, with both of us now have stomach issues.. Its now 1950, and my wife has gone to bed with stomach cramps.. When we met at the checkpoint, for the last part of the journey, my wife refused the minibus home. So did another couple. Therefore we got a 40 dollar Uber home.. very disappointed..

Excellent

die Tour begann pünktlich mit der Abholung im Hotel. In Bayahibe wurde man zu Gruppen zusammen geschlossen. Allerdings dauerte das mit fast 1 Stunde zu lange, hier ist in der Organisation noch viel Luft nach oben. Der Guide sprach deutsch, wie in der Buchung erwünscht. Da ich die einzige Deutsche war hat er für mich alleine alles erklärt, das fand ich sehr gut. Die Fahrten mit Katamaran und Schnellboot waren sehr schön. Das Essen auf der Insel war schmackhaft und reichlich im Karibikstil.

We enjoyed the island but would have liked to stay longer. It makes it less enjoyable being approached constantly to buy things and for massage. Boat crew and guide were great. Photos at blue lagoon way overpriced and no cheaper options.

C’est la 3eme fois que je fais cette excursion. J’ai trouvé la plage moins jolie que les deux dernières fois, dans le sens où pour la baignade ce n’était pas agréable car caillouteuses. Faire payer des piña colada à 20€ pour deux personnes, je trouve cela très chers, au vu de l’augmentation des prix des excursions qui ne font que augmenter avec les années… Le rapport qualité prix baisse avec les années, c’est dommage !

A ilha Saona é um paraíso. Gostamos muito. De resto, o passeio foi passado em deslocação. Uma ********** de carro para chegar ao porto, mais um tempo considerável à espera de embarcar. A viagem no motomaran foi agradável. Tempo nas piscinas naturais foi mínimo. O mesmo na ilha Saona onde deu tempo para dar um mergulho, comer, dar outro mergulho para depois ter uma viagem longuíssima de catamaran mais uma ********** de carro de regresso ao hotel. Dos passeios mais fracos que alguma vez fiz. Pague

This review is not against the local guides, but how it was sold to us by Tui: 1. Told it would take 2 hrs to get to the harbour, it took 3hrs! 2. One way speedboat (you will get soaked!) one way catamaran 3. Catamaran is very small, no lounging areas, no netting to lay on, and just enough seating space with a small space for dancing 4. Food wasn’t very nice & pina coladas were extra charge Comparing this trip to other catamaran trips done in other countries, it is not worth the money.

We had an amazing experience visiting Saona island. Our tour guide Ruben was really knowledgeable and nice. We made a stop to the natural pool followed by the stop in Saona, where we had our pictures taken and had a nice time to swim. Lunch was also tasty and fresh. On the way back we partied two hours on the catamaran with open bar and good music. We stopped to buy some souvenirs on the way home. I recommend the experience!

The running of the day went smoothly, It was good to have Ruben with us if we needed help. The speed boat was amazing and the catamaran trip was good apart from there not being enough seats for everybody so was an uncomfortable journey back. The island is beautiful but we weren’t warned about rocks in the sea and my husband hurt his foot. The thing that ruined the day was the photographers, be warned they conned us to buy photos, they are on boat too TUI shouldn’t allow this.

Die Insel an sich war schön, das Speedboat auch. Katamaran war katastrophal, im Hafen haben wir fast eine Stunde warten müssen. Vom Guide Ruben sollte man bei seiner Prüfung für die Lizenz etwas genauer hinschauen. Absolut lustlos, hat sich für nichts interessiert und war froh wenn man in in Ruhe gelassen hat. Katastrophe der Mann.

Mooi eiland om te bezoeken, wel heel erg veel bootjes die erheen gaan. Heen met een speedboot die veel te vol gepropt wordt, je zit strak tegen elkaar aan en je ziet haast niets. Ook terug met de catamaran ook teveel mensen erop. Dat is jammer.

The guide was a little flirty and didn’t really like that,luckily I was with a group of London lads and I felt more secure with being on my own

The pick up in the morning was a bit early. We were stood around at the marina/harbour for an hour and a half before we were eventually allowed to board the speedboat. Other than that a very enjoyable day

Toll war die Katamarantour und auch die Insel an sich. Was unverschämt war, waren die Preise für die Bilder die die Fotografen gemacht haben.

Die Busfahrt hin war sehr lange ( 2Std.). Die Schokofabrik auf der Rückfahrt braucht man nicht. Sonst schön. Unser Guide hat alles in Spanisch und Englisch kommentiert. Auf Nachfrage auch in Deutsch. Schöne Insel und die Rückfahrt war schön. Sollte man gesehen haben. Preis ist i.O.
