We were a family of 4 (all adults) and loved the crew and private aspect of this tour.
Boat was impeccable, Ossy and his son & colleague very friendly and helpful. Drinks, Snorkeling gear was also provided. Communication before and after booking was especially pleasant.
Don´t look further if you want a private speedboat experience to Sanoa. Incredible good value f

12/13/2021 - TripAdvisorWell worth the money It was well worth the money to have a private boat taking us around Saona island. It is a popular excursion and over the day we saw lots of catamarans packed full of party people and loud thumping music, and that wasn't the vibe we were looking for. We had drinks stocked all day, the restaurant on Saona island was great, and the water is amazingly clear and warm. Do yourself a favor and splurge on the priv

9/24/2021 - TripAdvisorrivate Half-day Luxury Minivan Tour - Chocolate / Coffee / Mamajuana / Cigars I loved it and would do it again.
It was a sensory experience in every way; each flavor, of coffee, chocolate, mama juana and sugar cane, intensified the other. In the same way, it lets you delve into the history of this beautiful country. 5 stars for this ride.

9/11/2021 - TripAdvisorAmazing day! Look no further, Punta Cana Hero has the best tours!
We couldn’t be happier with our day and the service, both on the boat and prebooking information. The natural pool felt like Maldives and we were so glad we had our own boat in stead of being on a crowded catamaran. Well worth the money! We also had a delicious lobster lunch at Isla Saona to a surprisingly good price.
We highly recommend this tour to e

“Got a chance to spend a day at the cruise with colleagues and office buddies. It was one of the best corporate hangouts I have had in a while and it may sound not fascinating but if you’re looking for the perfect corporate gathering with even your potential clients, Hands down because this is worth a try.”
