Have you ever seen a 17-meter whale up close? We're talking about actual life, not videos!
Humpback whales are stunning and wonderful. Mature specimens can grow to a length of 17 meters; their fins, which are approximately a third of that size and used as a rudder, for hunting, and even to control body temperature, are less than that.
.
The Humpback Whale, or Megaptera novaeangliae, migrates in vast numbers from Canadian waters to those of the Dominican Republic every year between mid-January and mid-March.
While permitting access in Samaná Bay, the Ministry of the Environment has designated some sections as marine protected zones.
We travel in small boats in quest of these amazing creatures because their majestic movements let us approach them. Mothers are frequently spotted with their children or adult companions.
An outstanding experience is the whale excursion.

Amazing trip with loads included. Guides were very friendly and happy to help. This is definitely a don't miss trip!! We had the best day, saw a school of 6 humpback and met some lovely people. Fantastic value for money.

I agree with the other reviews the breakfast was just a slice of cheese on bread, not good. The buffet lunch was good. The steps at Limon ranch were very slippery. I wouldn’t go down them again, not for the elderly. The people escorting you on the horse ride and down the trail kind of harassed you for tip money, but they definitely deserved it The music on the boat ride was way to loud! Wear old shoes you will get them dirty and muddy.

This tour offers a lot of activity packed into one day. We saw whales which is why we booked this tour. Some of the other reviewers complained about the breakfast sandwich. So what. This isn't a food tour. The Dominican lunch was delicious in case you were wondering. The tour guide we had favored Spanish when he spoke and gave very little direction in English which is why I only gave it four stars. Better communication to English speakers would have made us less concerned about what to do and when. We had to ask a lot of questions. We were staying in Punta Cana which is about 2 hours from the boat dock. If you are staying in the same location, be prepared to not return until about 9pm. All in all, it was a worthwhile trip.

It’s a long day but worth it to see the whales and ride a donkey. Pack snacks, the food is ok. 1.5 hour bus ride, breakfast was bread and fruit, then 30 min boat ride to island beach, 1 hour at beach, 5 min boat ride to Samana, lunch, 45 min bus ride to horse/donkey to ride 15 min to waterfall. Then horse, bus, boat, bus back.

We were a little skeptical after reading other reviews, but this tour checked all the boxes. We were picked up on time from our hotel, we did have to meet the rest of the tour group on the side of the road due to another pickup but we never felt unsafe. The 2 hour drive to the boat was beautiful and really gave a glimpse into life outside of the resorts. Breakfast was indeed and ham and cheese sandwich with fruit but it was the right amount of food for being early. The tour guides were friendly and helpful, and the whales showed up and showed off! Lunch was a unique experience with a view of the bay and was good local cuisine. After lunch, we boarded open air safari trucks and it took about 40 mins to get to the horses, again getting a glimpse of local life. The horses were skinny but didn’t appear unhealthy. Local volunteers are the guides for this walk to the waterfall so be prepared to tip them, as they are not employed by the tour itself. Our guides were very friendly and made sure we were comfortable and having fun. The stairs…. Yes there are quite a few of them (280) but worth the view. They were wet and if you aren’t careful, I can see how it could be sketchy but I never felt unstable and my knees aren’t great! Just be smart and take your time if that’s a concern. The waterfall was beautiful and lots of picture ops along the way. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys getting off resort and experiencing a fun day.
