The whale watching was great, but the line to get in was ridiculous. It was very disorganized. As soon as we stepped on the boat they closed the kitchen so we didn't get any food. Very disappointed in the experience.

Cruise ship was not going to tender in time. Emailed about a refund, no response/resolution. Lost money, not happy :(
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Dear Jennifer,
We are genuinely sorry to hear about the inconvenience you encountered when the cruise ship was not able to tender in time. We understand that this may have been disappointing. However, we would like to clarify a few points in response to your concerns.
First, it's important to note that the cruise schedule and tendering process are typically managed by the cruise line and not by our company directly. We do our best to coordinate with them and ensure a seamless experience for our guests, but there can be situations beyond our control that affect the schedule.
Regarding your request for a refund, we apologize for any misunderstanding or lack of response you may have experienced. It's crucial to mention that when reservations are made through third-party channels, the communication and refund processes may differ from direct bookings with us. We recommend reaching out to your third-party booking provider for further assistance and resolution. They should be able to guide you through the appropriate procedures for addressing your concerns.
We genuinely regret that your experience did not meet your expectations and that you feel dissatisfied with the outcome. Your feedback is valuable, and we will use it to improve our communication with third-party partners and our guests. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.
We hope this explanation clarifies the situation, and we apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. Should you decide to book directly with us in the future, we can provide more personalized assistance and ensure a smoother experience.
Thank you for choosing our cruise in Cabo San Lucas, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you again in the future.

Hi beppe15, thank you for your review. We would like to clarify that our no-show refund policy is firm – we do not offer refunds for cancellations made through a third-part company. We recommend contacting the provider who you made the reservation from to submit a claim, Viator may refund you depending on their policy.
Kind regards,

Many whales to see this year.
Too many boats blocking our view of the arch and surrounding rock formations. It would be great if boats left the harbor at regular intervals so that all passengers have good opportunities to see the sights up close.
The crew is very fun and personable.

The whale watching trip on the pirate ship was awesome. Great staff was entertaining and informative. Breakfast was terrific as was the drinks and the service. Of course we saw whales but wished for more. It was a overall great experience.
