3.Speed Boat in Punta Cana

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 47 reviews

This four-hour Punta Cana outing pairs hands-on speedboat driving with reef snorkeling and a 30-minute stop at a natural pool. Guides such as Carlos, Jeffrey, and Phillips have earned praise for friendly instruction and photos, but confirm pickup details and boat condition before you go.

“This trip is not worth the money. We booked for 11.30 to be picked up at 11am, they did not turn up. We contacted tour operator and viator after sitting for an hour and a half but no response for tour operator and only a whats app message from viator to say our pick up was 1pm. They had cancelled our 11.30 and never told us. There are no refreshments provided as we had to pay 20 dollars for a cocktail and nothing else was supplied. We were hounded by our guide for a tip and he followed us around until we gave him money. This is mis selling and…”

It was like a 3-minute ride. He even offered me a Dominican cigar. :) When I got to the beach from the street, I could see my hotel was next door. Funny! I went by myself as the teens were still sleeping at 11AM. It was just me in the boat along with Allysun (sp?) who was a fantastic Captain! I drove the speed boat which is a blast. He gave me general direction which way…”
