What people are saying about El Limón

It was so crazy that it was cool again. - Driver was at the hotel on time - then the delay came... Driver tried to find people... 35min. (Then he noticed that it was the wrong Riu Hotel) - then we went to Samaná Bay. - when we got there we had coffee and a sandwich for breakfast (mega... wasn't in the description) - we took a boat towards Samaná... just crazy... the first rows were light with the wind... no... very wet! - arrived we went with a safari truck towards the waterfall - arrived there we went on horses towards the waterfall (I felt sorry for the horses, the way was so crass... but then I saw that the horses are actually kept as farm animals... You know it ! And also only do one tour a day) - ready for dinner (the best thing I've eaten on tours so far) - now to the boat and over to Bacardi Island - then back on the boat towards land - off on the bus and back to the hotel.

We loved the experience. Two things we all agreed on: it would have been better to stay longer at the Caída Limón and skip the beach. Also, we would have appreciated to have a ballpark figure of how much tips to bring. And guides most be paid by the ranch in addition to tips

Like an adventure with a 50 year old Cessna. Unfortunately without ventilation or air conditioning. But a very interesting flight which was also fun. Super nice pilot.

Very well organized tour, the guides were very attentive and friendly. The food was delicious and everything was spotlessly clean.

Organization at the top lost a little time in the morning the time of taking care of everyone .... Very nice guide I recommend ...
