The Beauty of Glacier National Park, Montana
Glacier National Park is one the hidden gems of United States National Parks. It is rugged, clean accommodations generous in sharing their facilities for guest travelers. The Park Rangers are very professionalin compliance with local ordinance and regulate traffic on narrow roads, slippery due to melting glaciers and overflow of small waterfalls but the beauty of surrounding is outstanding, truly God's creation for enjoyment of mankind. We rented an Bnb outside of the park for three days, we should have done for a week but some members of the group have limited vacation. The difficult part in going GNP would be transport. My adult kids did the driving on winding roads while I share in driving on flat lands.

Paradise
Wonderful trip, excellent service too. Traveling by bus from Puerto Plata takes about 2.5 hours. They take great care of you during the cruise. As a bonus you will get sparkling wine and even lobster. Compared to other agencies, the price is good.

We were welcomed upon arrival by Antoine our tailor-made guide hehe. We stayed at the Be Live Canoa hotel. The excursions were made through bluetravel everything went very well just a few people in these excursions and quite a Waiting time you have to leave with the idea that it is the holiday! Special thanks to Antoine who was just great. He met our expectations and was very responsive. Professionalism!!! The return to France was difficult we have snow haha!

Consider yourself lucky if you get picked up !!!
Booked directly with this company and got a confirmation with their phone, logo and email. Once we realized nobody was coming to pick us up we immediately contacted the company and where told, sorry we can not give you a refund because the owner is sick and he is the only one who can do that. This was back in december and now they removed their web site which you can see on the picture. Anybody who is selling this tour should be ashamed off.
Response from the operator: Dear Client, Thank you for taking the time to comment! It is unfortunate that you have had a negative experience with our services. We request that you please contact at the following email so that we may follow up with you regarding this incident: customercare@tui.com We look forward to reading from you. Cordially,

The island itself was amazing but the travel time to get there was too much
We did this excursion last week. The island itself is very beautiful as well as Puerto Rusia. You can just lounge at the beach or go snorkeling to see the fish. The tour provides free rum drinks at the island which is nice. The bus ride from our hotel was 2.5 hours...an hour of which we were just picking up other people at their hotels. We were one of the first on the bus and one of the last off the bus so this made the day really long. Out of a 10 hour excursion we spent 5 hours on the bus and if you get car sick this will not be good for you. I think I would recommend private travel for this one if you are staying in Puerto Plata. We were told that once we arrived at Puerto Rusia there would be some snacks like ham and cheese sandwiches and things. The food ran out really quick and my boyfriend had to ask them to bring out more. The food after the excursion wasn't the best but you could find something to eat and nothing made us sick. A note for people before you book....there are no washrooms on this island so if you are one of those people who need to use the bathroom more frequently than others you may be uncomfortable during this trip. However the bathrooms at Puerto Rusia were kept very clean. Overall the island was beautiful but would recommend private travel to Puerto Rusia
Response from the operator: Dear customer, Thanks for your comment! Our goal is always to provide quality services to all our customers and we appreciate taking the time to comment! Looking forward to being able to provide you with our services in a future visit. Best regards,

Los Haitises National Park, Montaña Redonda & Bacardi Island: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Punta Cana.
How much does Los Haitises National Park, Montaña Redonda & Bacardi Island cost?
+
Prices start at $115 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Punta Cana usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Los Haitises National Park, Montaña Redonda & Bacardi Island take?
+
Plan for about 10.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Punta Cana is not rushed.
Is Los Haitises National Park, Montaña Redonda & Bacardi Island worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Punta Cana, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Los Haitises National Park, Montaña Redonda & Bacardi Island?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Los Haitises National Park, Montaña Redonda & Bacardi Island suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Los Haitises National Park, Montaña Redonda & Bacardi Island?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Punta Cana can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Punta Cana and add a light layer if any part of the 10.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Los Haitises National Park, Montaña Redonda & Bacardi Island start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Punta Cana within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Punta Cana?
+
On Outty we rank every Punta Cana experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Punta Cana Zipline - 8 lines and a suspenseful hanging bridge, Buggy Excursion to Macau Beach and Natural Cave, Small Group Buggy Tour to Water Cave and Macao Beach. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Punta Cana?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Punta Cana?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
