Breathtaking, Fun, Worth It
Candaece_C, Jun 2023
Absolutely the best!!! Omg everything about this excursion was fun. The people were great, the staff was kind and accommodating. My daughter 8, myself and my friend all enjoyed. It was not a moment that I did not enjoy. The snorkeling, the water swimming, they let you dive off if you want. It is worth it! Book this now!!! Don’t hesitate! No regrets. They also communicate well and respond to any concerns in a timely manner.

This was one of the best excursions we have experienced. From the time they picked us up at the hotel to drop off, it was all smiles. Great snorkeling experience, good food, and wonderful staff. Would recommend this to anyone traveling to the DR.

Fun trip! Snorkeling was fun, the food was good and the crew was great. Recommend! They were not stingy with the booze either. Overall great day.

Jayashree_M, Apr 2023
Wow - this is undoubtedly not to be missed. The crew makes each guest feel special and ensures that everyone has a great snorkeling experience. It helped that the weather was ideal. The post-snorkeling sailing with the lunch and open bar by itself would have been worth the trip. All in all, Amazing. Alain was great and the crew really entertained everyone with the dancing, etc.

Good trip. Got to see dolphins and 2 whales, highlight of the trip. Snorkeling ok, water was quite rough. Staff were great! Unfortunatley food was not. Tuna pasta salad and coleslaw had turned sour, couldn't eat it.

Alycia_A, Jun 2022
We had a great time! The ship is beautiful and wasn’t too crowded. Papa, Alex, and the rest of the crew made the ride fun. The only con I can list is that the lunch was just okay, but there’s only so much you can do on a boat, so it didn’t ruin the experience. Thanks guys!
Response from Host, Jun 2022
Alycia, thank you for the review! We're so happy that you had a great time on Catamaran Day Trip Excursion.
Good fun for a great price
Karina_C, Jun 2022
The most memorable parts of the trip was the staff. They really made the boat ride smooth and enjoyable. They were all fun, serviceable and kind. The only con was that the boat was a bit more crowded than I would’ve expected/liked it to be, but even so every part of the trip was super fun and I would definitely do it again.

Fantastic snorkeling day
Kristie_L, Apr 2022
We were originally scheduled for a morning 6 hour catamaran tour but had to cancel due to getting Covid tested. They added us to their evening boat snorkeling tour which was excellent. Super crew, great snorkeling and fantastic BBQ. May want to take Dramamine before goi g as some folks got sick. Would Highly recommend.
Response from Host, May 2022
Thank you for the review, Kristie! I am glad to hear that you had a good time on the smaller catamaran tour.
It was just ok
Carrie_H, Apr 2022
Everything felt unorganized and rushed. Standing on the beach for 30-45 mins while 5-6 boat loads of people were ushered out to the catamaran was ridiculous. The catamaran was very full which was opposite of what the ad said. Zero ability to even stay remotely away from other people (due to covid) Linch was a gong show of 40+ people lined up around the boat to get their food. We’ve done a few catamaran tours before, but this wasn’t one of the better ones 😟
Response from Host, Apr 2022
Thank you for your feedback. As the Catamaran is 75 feet and not able to come to the shore, we always use a speed boat to bring the customers to the Catamaran. If all the taxi and buses comes at the same time for the boarding it might take some time for the boarding. The catamaran is 75 feet and outdoors.
super.

Fantastic crew of TipTop made this excursion AMAZING!! The boat ride was smooth, the snorkeling was excellent but the people in the crew really made it all work
Response from Host, Mar 2022
Hello Peter, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour and the service.
Day of sunshine
Jackie_C, Feb 2022
The crew on the catamaran were THE absolute best part of the trip. They were very interactive with ALL guest. Alix was amazing and informative about so much of the Dominican and its culture. What a guy! We visited two different areas for snorkel, enjoyed a lunch buffet, and open bar. After lunch we enjoyed sailing and partying with the crew which was an absolute BLAST. If you did not have a great time, then you must have been half dead. Every single person had a smile all day. The price ($78) included all of this PLUS transportation to and from our resort. You could not ask for a better deal. Actually I fell like I owe THEM more money.
Response from Host, Mar 2022
Hello Jackie, thank you so much for your wonderful words. We really appreciate your feedback. Hope to see you again!
Worth every $
Jasmine_M, Dec 2021
We had an amazing time! Both snorkelling spots were awesome and had plenty of fish to see. The entire crew was really good and friendly! Alex got everyone partying once the drinks were handed out! Highly recommend as it’s a full day at sea.
