Guidekin's take

A private double deck motor catamaran to Saona for your own party, with a buffet lunch, unlimited open bar with mojitos, snorkel gear and dive gear for certified divers, and hotel pickup, priced per boat.

Divers must leave enough hours before a flight, and only tips are extra. 5 from 54 reviews at €2180 per group/vehicle for 8h.

In our comparison: #3 of 11 in Saona Island Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
