Boasting an exotic island and a national park, this is no ordinary whale watching tour. Your Dominican adventure kicks off in Samana Bay, famed for its humpback whales. Observe – with luck – these graceful creatures at play before docking at Bacardi Island for a creole lunch followed by downtime on the beach. Rounding off the day is a tour of La Farola.

Didn't like fact that it's a 12 hour day with about 40 minutes of whale watching when day is described as a whale watching excursion although it was awesome to see humpback whales. Very crowded on the island with a dirty beach. Not great for bare feet. Nice lunch. The guide, Danny, was great. Very informative about his country. Very uncomfortable boat ride at times, passengers (me included) at the edges getting soaked right through both ways. Not great to sit in coach home absolutely drenched.

A 6 hour coach trip is a very long time But we appreciate the roads are not great but going to do many hotels for pick ups took the first hour of our journey and we hadn’t gone very far

Getting in & out of the boat was very difficult for people that are short legged. The trip was amazing & so worth it. Staff allowed my sister and I to stand at the back with them as we couldn't see anything with being 4'11'' It was the most emotional experience. I would definitely do it again

Fantastic day out! Thomas our guide was so informative about Dominican Republic on our journey to the boat, we learnt lots. The speedboat was great fun and found whales straight away. The whales then put on an incredible show for us jumping and splashing up close, just incredible. Then onto barcardi island, gorgeous lunch, snorkelling and swimming at a stunning location, also had some stalls for souvenirs etc. A perfect day out.
