Traveler reviews

Don’t bring any money or medical supply cause left on boat even small numbers somebody has sticky fingers to would be nice to have cameras or lock boxes to avoid be stolen from also companies that owns should tip at resorts at the end maybe would help
Such a great time!
We did multiple excursions on our trip and this was BY FAR our favorite adventure. We were the only people on the sharks and rays part of the excursion so it was really great to have that unique swimming experience and close up encounters with sharks! We loved the catamaran experience after our swimming experience. The other great part of the adventure was snorkeling on the coral reef, with the group at the catamaran. It was STUNNING to see the beauty of the underwater life.
A good time in and on the waters
Communication with Tour Package Punta Cana was great. We had pickup & drop off from our resort which went smoothly. The actual tour was with Thom Tours on the waters. The boat consisted of 4-5 crew, my group of 4 and another family of 4. Perfect weather. Snacks & drinks were provided onboard and there are 2 restrooms and a waterslide. The first spot we stopped at was an area to snorkel and look at all the fishies. Second location was the enclosed space to see sharks and rays. Third and final spot was originally the beach but the amount of seaweed made it difficult and not worth it to goto so we were brought to a sandbar instead in the middle of the waters which was lovely too. Bring with you a towel, sunscreen, waterproof case for your phone and some money to tip.
Snorkel /shark /Ray excursion Disappointment
This is not a “small group” excursion There’s was over 50 people on the boat, very crowded. While the employees were attentive and good, there were too many people. I booked the trip because it said “small group”.
