This was our first time in the DR. After contemplating whether to book the cheaper large group or small group Saona Island tour I am so glad we picked the small group with Melvins company ! It exceeded my expectations , we had a fantastic trip and would highly recommend. The staff could not do enough for you throughout the day including taking photos which are airdropped before heading back to the hotel. This tour is for you if you like a small group setting, with lots of information from a knowledgable tour guide. Not a boozey partying vibe, plenty of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks flowing throughout the day. Lovely breakfast and lunch. Top tip: I wasn’t sure how much cash to bring along but you will need cash only and there are opportunities to buy coconut water / pineapple drink at each stop (approx $5 and souvenir gifts such as Jewellery / magnets (2 for $5), massage at the beach (if that’s your thing) and Tips for your guide/ boat staff. Thank you Melvin and your team, you work so hard - all the best to you!

Melvin and his team were excellent! Pick up was easy and on time, no waiting. Communication before, during, and after was great. He and his team always made sure we knew where we were going and offered some great history of the Dominican Republic. We were provided breakfast and lunch which had something for everyone (even the picky eaters in my group). We visited multiple beaches and because we left early in the morning we were there before the rush of crowds. The turtle sanctuary was very informative and I enjoyed learning about them. My favorite part of the day was the sandbar with all of the starfish! As we were on the speedboat going over the sandbars we were able to see many fish, a turtle, and so many starfish. When we stopped we were able to get out on the sandbar and hold the starfish. Melvin was great about taking pictures and even sent them to us at the end. Overall this was an awesome day and I would recommend it to anyone!

This excursion is just what you expect it to be! Great tour guide, lots of free time on the beach, good bus & boat ride, small group and a great lunch (surprisingly good). Also to add is that the tour guide is well historically educated and gives lot of information during the excursion tour. Saono island is definitely worth it and the only way is by booking this excursion trust me on this one 😉

Amazing and very well organized tour. The pick up time is very early in the morning but it is worth it! Throughout the tour we stopped at 3 or 4 different stops. The tour guide also takes photos of you throughout the day and will send them to you for free at the end, which was a huge bonus. For breakfast we were given some simple sandwiches and fruits, and for lunch we had grilled meats and fish. Throughout the you are also served rum/beer/water. The group size was about 10 people which was perfect. The tour guide is very friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely would recommend this tour.

Melvin was a terrific guide! Very knowledgeable and a great sense of humor! He made the trip! Although my wife says he should speak slower. It was a great day!

Great day out, started early to be ahead of the crowds, small group made it so we didn’t feel like a herd of cattle, particularly enjoyed the snorkeling, interesting history of the island given while traveling.

This company had great communication before and after booking. And wonderful customer service on our adventure. The island is absolutely beautiful with unbelievable water colors. Melvin shares his passion for the island, the people living there, and the turtle sanctuary. He takes pride in providing his customers an experience unique from other Saona Tours. We arrived early to each of our locations, allowing us to enjoy the undisturbed beauty. Melvin offered to take several pictures of each couple/group throughout the day, and shared them after with us for no additional charge. We highly recommend Melvin, and his staff, for an unforgettable experience!!

Best your ever!! Your was a small group pick up was on time. using this your you avoid a big bus with more time traveling to and from
island. You go early and beat all the crowds so the islands are pretty much empty. such a fun romantic time
for you and your partner. Your guide is very educational and you won’t regret this tour

This tour is the best tour you will get for Saona island. It’s a small group tour so you’re not in a huge packed boat, tour guide is so knowledgeable and nice. Breakfast and lunch included such a romantic day for you and a partner you will have an amazing time. You get to the islands before large crowds the food provided was delicious i would redo this tour every weekend if i could!! YOU WILL NOT REGRET !!!
