This by far was the best experience I've had with excursions here in Punta Cana. Melvin was extremely knowledgeable and fun. Yes, you get picked up early, but it was so worth it because you get to the beaches before all the crowds show up. It's like a VIP treatment. Everything from the turtle sanctuary to the snorkeling with the starfish and snorkeling on the reef was amazing! Lunch on the beach was also delicious! The beaches were beautiful and Melvin and his staff were beyond amazing.

I’m very late writing this review, but it was so outstanding I had to come back and do it. We went as a family of 3. Marvin, our guide was absolutely amazing. His knowledge and passion for his home and its history is inspiring. Leaving earlier meant we had more quiet moments at some of the most beautiful beaches we’ve ever seen (and we live on the west coast of Scotland…also with beautiful beaches!). We were in a small group which made a massive difference to the whole experience. The food was amazing. The service was outstanding. Absolutely 10/10. If we go back to the Dominican Republic, I’d happily pay to do this tour again! There really are not words to describe how amazing this tour was.

This was a great experience! This was our first time in Punta Cana & Melvin made our trip to Saona island amazing, he knew everything & explained in detail. He made sure we were the first people at all the locations & by the time we left people were filling up. Honestly it was great & would recommend 10/10, food and drinks were also great and tasty!

This is the way to see Saona Island. You aren’t packed in the boat like sardines and the trip starts early so you’ll be the first ones there to enjoy the beach before the crowds start coming. Melvin is the man!! He teaches you a bit of history, takes you to the local town of Mano Juan & shows you the turtle sanctuary. Melvin takes pics of you and sends them to your phone free of charge. Fantastic trip overall

Melvin & his crew went above and beyond to make our day extra special. We had a small group & we were the first on both beaches which was great. By 100 is was busy! My son & step daughter & her bf had a blast. Please book with him you will not be disappointed.
