“The whale watching itself was great, we saw quite a few. But this excursion was advertised as 3.25 hours. We didn’t leave the marina until 10:00 am and were back by 12:30 pm. We could have spent more time watching the whales instead of rushing to drop guests off at Bacardi Island.”

4.Whale Watching & Limón Waterfall Day Trip

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 94 reviews · from $169

Humpback whales from a comfy catamaran and a jungle ride to 165-foot Limón Waterfall from Punta Cana, with pickup and lunch.

“Watching the whales was worth the trip. It was amazing to watch them so close! If I had to do this again, I would choose one excursion without the Lemon Cascade. The Lemon Cascade is beautiful too, but you have to walk up and down 280 steps each way, and for me it would have been better to stop in a beach instead.”

“The pick up from the hotel was good however the journey to the boat was poor, we rode a bus for 20/30 minutes to stop at a petrol station were no information was provided to say we was waiting for another bus to pick us up. Once we got picked up the bus broke down as it had smashed into a huge metal plate in the road. That was not there fault but our tour guide Thomas was just a poor excuse for a tour guide he. It was a Spanish/English tour but Not much English was spoken. When we got of the bus he did say follow me return…”

“I was crying, it was so beautiful! i was hesitant to go on a whale watching tour at first because of the whales wellbeeing but i am so happy that I went with them. They made sure, that not too many boats drive after the whales and gave the animals lots of space to not intimidate the whales. from the beginning to the end, the tour was perfect, the guides great and informative. We absolutely loved it!”

Humpback whales in Samaná Bay and a swim at Bacardi Island on a 10-12 hour Punta Cana day trip with lunch and options.

“Partis à 6h15 de l’hôtel pour arriver à 10h00 au port alors qu’il y a 2 heures de route. 1h00 d’attente pour avoir le bateau. Dans le bateau on est serrés comme des sardines, ils disent 4 personnes par banquette mais il faudrait tenir compte de la corpulence de certains passagers très nombreux sur ces excursions. Donc à l’arrière vous ne voyez absolument pas la mer et quand enfin vous approchez des baleines si elles sont du côté opposé vous ne voyez rien, vous les voyez 10 secondes quand le bateau tourne. En plus plusieurs personnes malades qui demandent à rejoindre la terre ferme, pas de sac à vomi dans…”

“Pick up from my hotel was seamless (if a little early). The whales were great. The ride there was interesting. Loved lunch and time on the beach. Nacho told us some history of the island. Two recommendations, provide the guides with some information about whales and please don’t introduce politics into the trip.”
