The VIP tour to Paradise Island starts early in the morning because we like to get to the island before all the other tourists arrives. It is an amazing feeling to be alone on the island. This tour is a great way to spend with your family and friends. The pick up time is at 5:30 am from Cabarete, 6:00 am from Sosua and at 6:30 am from Puerto Plata. First we drive to Punta Rucia and from there with a speed boat to " Cayo Arena " ( the local name of Paradise Island ), where turquoise water and white sand will welcome you. On the Paradise Island you will get fresh fruits and drinks. Discover the bright colorful reef with all kinds of fishes on our snorkeling tour, or just enjoy the sun and the beach at this beautiful place. Before lunch we visit the national park of Monte Cristi with its mangroves. On the way back we will make a stop at Playa Estero Hondo to have look at the Manatees ( sea cows ).

Inclusions: National Park fees, Beverages, Buffet lunch, Driver/guide, Hotel pickup and drop-off, Use of Snorkelling equipment, Alcoholic Beverages

Exclusions: Gratuities

I am deathly afraid of the ocean, so why not paddle board?? The owner Richard spent alot of time with me to get the basics...then stayed right with me all around the bay. IT WAS AMAZING!!!! I was able to get out on the water and stay up the whole time. Looking down the coral and fish were absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to get out there again....thanks again Richard for everything ????????????.. Bringing my spouse next week for lessons.

Great experience and a must do! Captain Bart provided transportation to and from our hotel. Willy and Jacob made sure we were comfortable on board with snacks and drinks. They are very friendly and knowledgeable and did their best to get us to the areas where the fish were biting. You may decide to try the full day experience so you can go out farther. We will surely be back next year for another adventure! This company truly treats you like a friend!

From the Puerto plata hotels & villas, we’ll enjoy the beautiful landscapes of the Oriental Mountain Range as we drive the north cost before arriving in the small fishing village of samana at the southern shores of Samana Bay. There you will enjoy a quick breakfast prior to boarding the boat to Samana. We’ll cruise deep into the bay to whale watch. We will first reach Cayo Levantado, also known as Bacardi Island because of its close resemblance to the beaches Bacardi Rum once used for its famous commercials. Cayo Levantado is nothing short of a tropical oasis - a small island in the middle of the ocean with turquoise waters and white sands. We guarantee that your tour with us is an unforgettable experience We have the best bus and catamaran when going to the sanctuary of the whales the food is prepared with the best quality standards Our main adjective is that the experience is unique for each of our visitors

We were in town for a cruise and we booked this shore excursion through the website before the cruise. We had a great experience. We had 14 in our group the oldest was 62 and youngest was 4. No matter the age everyone had a great time. Our tour guide Michael was amazing. He was patient with the kids and very knowledgeable as far as facts about our ride. The buggy’s were very roomy and the route was beautiful views. I would recommend this to anyone. We stopped at a local house and had local beer and also were able to buy local cigars. When you are in town book with these people and you will not be disappointed.

First we will stop at the mini zoo, see the typical animals, birds and then continue to the plantation. amazed with the plantation you can also enjoy different fruits The next stop is at Playa Caleton where the waters are calm and crystal clear then we continue to the blue dudu lagoon here are a different ways to enjoy the pool. There are several platforms of varying height which allow you to jump into the water (the tallest platform is quite the rush!) Or you can hang onto a metal frame zip line and let go when you’re zooming over the water. There are also stairs that allow access into the pool if you don’t want to jump or take a zip line. In the thick humidity of the Dominican Republic, the cool water of the lagoon is more than refreshing. Plus, it’s fun to watch others in your group jump into the water from the platforms while you swim. Then stop in playa grande to have lunch and enjoy the beach.

Inclusions: Lunch

Priceless. Everything was good. The speed boat ride to the island, snorkeling, the clear water, blue skies. Best place to take a loved one. Such a small island feels like it's your private island and beach. A place you can propose to your future wife. I will definitely be going back.
