Tomamos la excursión con Viator para visitar Isla Saona y fue una experiencia excelente. Fueron muy puntuales en la recogida y en el transporte hacia el lugar donde tomamos el bote. Disfrutamos primero de la piscina natural, que estuvo espectacular, y luego pasamos a la playa de Isla Saona, donde nos ofrecieron un almuerzo delicioso. Nuestro guía Max fue sumamente atento, servicial y siempre estuvo pendiente del grupo. También otros miembros del equipo nos atendieron muy bien, pero él fue quien se destacó. Al finalizar, la recogida de regreso al hotel también fue puntual. En general, un servicio organizado, responsable y muy recomendable.
