EXCURSION DETAILS
For an unforgettable island experience, book a Reef Explorer tour. Located off the coast of Punta Cana, visitors have half a day to experience all that this all-inclusive floating island has to offer. Activities abound on the island for visitors. For the adventure types, the island offers kayaking and paddle surfing on the azure waters of Punta Cana. Visitors can also swim with nurse sharks and sting rays or go snorkeling at the coral reef. For those that crave even more adventure, Power Snorkeling, a technologically advanced sea jet voyage through the ocean, is a must.
Of course there are some that prefer relaxation to adventure. Guest can use floating mats to lie out and soak up some sun. Guests can also turn their nearly four hour island visit into a mini spa day. Available spa services include shell, stone and hand massages as well as an on-site reflexology therapist. The island health bar serves snacks such as sandwiches, vegetables, dips and fruit juices. Do not forget to have a glass of Mamajuana, a traditional Dominican drink and purportedly a natural aphrodisiac, before leaving the island.
Regardless of the activity you choose to partake in, an enjoyable time is all but guaranteed during your stay on the island.

Frequent questions
At what time will I be picked up?
The confirmed pick up time will be stated on the voucher sent to your e-mail after booking online.
Can I book my excursion at the hotel when I arrive?
Since the excursions we offer are very popular and frequently sell out early, we recommend that you pre-book online to avoid last-minute surprises and disappointments. If you wish to book an excursion after you arrive, you will need to contact a local tour provider and pay full price once you are here.
Are there any weight/age restrictions?
Some excursions have weight and/or age restrictions. Please read carefully the “Important Information” box above.
What happens if there is bad weather?
Unless the weather directly affects the excursion you have booked, all excursions will operate as scheduled. If the excursion is cancelled for bad weather or any other reason we will contact you to try to reschedule at your earliest convenience, if a later date for you to go on the excursion cannot be arranged we will refund 100% of your money.
Can I change the date of my excursion?
We understand sometimes plans change and that you may need to reschedule, no problem! Just contact us at least 48 hours before the start of your excursion with your date-change request and we’ll look after you at no extra cost, subject to availability of course!
Why book online?
Discounted Prices
When you book online ahead of time you can save up to 10% as opposed to booking from a representative at your hotel.
Choose the date YOU want
Avoid sold out excursions; book online in advance and choose the date YOU want, not the other way around.
No waiting in line
Many people wait until arriving in DR to book their excursions so long lines form in the hotel lobby to speak to the representatives of each excursion.
Avoid pushy vendors
Many tour providers employ the same vendors and since they work on commission they’ll try to push the excursions that give them the highest commission.
