Picked up at 7am, before resort started breakfast. Drove 5 minutes and dropped in a parking lot to stand in the sun for 1 hour. Put on a bus for 10 minutes then transferred to a van. Started the drive after 8:30!
Got to 3 Eyes and walked past the lakes. Was told we don’t have time for the boat ride across the lake because we have to go to 2 shopping malls. I said I didn’t want to shop, I want to sightsee. Then I was told the ticket doesn’t include the boat ride. 10 minutes later I saw guide give a man a bunch of tickets in exchange for money, curious! On top of that, we stood in the sun for 20 minutes ‘resting’. It was hot! And, we could have gotten right on the boat without a wait. Very disappointing.
Drove through city as guide pointed things out on way to restaurant. No air conditioning and buffet wasn’t good, other groups at same restaurant.
Left as group and took shopping even though everyone in group did not want to. Stop at a couple landmarks then took to Larimar store where the tour guide and our driver took shots of liquor.
You are given NO TIME to explore on your own and the only architecture you see is what you pass from store to store. You are not allowed to go off on your own to meet the group later. And I practically begged.
Only book this if you want to spend an entire day of your vacation driving, eating bland food and shopping somewhere that gives the guide a kick back. Unfortunately, I’m not exaggerating.

le groupe était super plaisant, le conducteur et le narrateur professionnels, le problème fut une très grande déception au restaurant, un buffet très froid et pas de saveur et même pas une bière froide dans cette chaleur et dans ce montant total trop dispendieux. Vu la distance de Punta Cana pas de service au client appréciable. je ne vous recommande a personne.

Bonjour nous avons payer cette excursion avec un guide en français pourtant a aucun moment nous avons eu un guide qui parler français la visite c'est transformée en cochemards nous attendions beaucoup de cette journée de découverte et nous avons étais mis de coter sans comprendre un seul mot sur une journée de 7h nous avons passer la journée frustrer et mis de coter de plus les boissons étais payantes nous nous sommes dessécher toute la journée avec 40 degrés à l'ombre sans une goutte d'eau par conséquent je vous demanderais de bien vouloir procéder au remboursement intégral de cette excursion
