“If you speak Spanish or French this tour is great for you. If you only speak English you might feel like a bit uninformed. As and English speaker I would rate it 4 stars. Since the driver and some guides speak almost no English but since I do speak Spanish and the tour as such is brilliant no matter if you speak the language or not I highly recommend doing it. yes it's a very long day but it's always in a small group and you never drive more than 2 hours at once. The time goes by fast since it's very different activities and it seemed suitable for young…”

“L'organisation est tres moyenne. Le rdv au point était correct. On nous a emmené à l'embarcadère. De là on a été regroupés avec d'autres. Nous avions 1 guide pour 46 pers. Il a fait la visite en 3 langues. Félicitations à lui ! Mais forcément ça ne peut pas être approfondi. Nous avons visité les grottes qui sont relativement bien aménagées. Il faut prévoir au moins une lampe de téléphone parce que les passages ne sont pas éclairés. On nous a ensuite conduit à Cayo Levantado. Les groupes étaient rassemblés suivant leur organisateur. Notre guide ne savait qui était le nôtre. Nous avons été rajouté au hasard à d'autres. Le…”

“Siamo partiti con la barca che impiega un’ora e mezza ad arrivare da Samaná al parco, poi c’è stato il trasporto in macchina e l’incontro con la guida. L’attività quindi è iniziata con il kayak intorno alle 11:30. Interessante la parte in acqua tra le mangrovie e le scogliere. Poi c’è stata la visita alla grotta, il pranzo e la visita a Caño Honda che altro non è che una serie di piscine costruite lungo un fiume: niente di naturale! Siamo poi tornati con il bus a prendere la barca e abbiamo aggiunto di tasca nostra la differenza per prendere la barca veloce. A parte la visita in canoa il…”

“Activité sympa, la visite au Parc Haitises est agréable, avec de beaux paysages. Néanmoins, sur une activité censée durer 8 à 11h, la réalité est bien moindre. Pour ceux venant de Samana, il faut prendre le ferry de 9h qui nous transporte de l’autre côté de l’île. Après la traversée, un taxi vous emmène au parc naturel. Notre activité n’a commencé qu’à 12h au parc. La visite est néanmoins très agréable, le guide était gentil et attentionné. Une visite de 2 grottes, à la suite desquelles nous sommes laissés dans une sorte de complexe aquatique où l’on peut se baigner en attendant notre retour. Retour à 17h avec le Ferry.…”
