Great Cruise with An Excellent Crew
lisacfain, Mar 2024
This was such a fun cruise for my husband & I!! We got great seats on the 2nd level at the front. The crew was so welcoming and happy to help. They did a lively dance show before the end of the cruise and got lots of passengers up & out of their seats having a blast! Food was good. Bathrooms were good. Fun music & good drinks rounded things out. It was toward the end of whale season but we still saw whales, dolphins & manta rays. This cruise was worth the price. Thank you SunRider Tours for a fantastic time. Definitely recommend and would do it again!

The crews are working hard to make sure we all have a wonderful time. The drinks are great, food is good, and the best is to see the arch and whales very close.

Saw lots of whales and had a nice meal. New boat, plenty of room to move around. Good experience. At the end of the ride, the crewmembers performed a dance party.

Worth it!

Our tour guys were all great! I believe there were 5-6 guys on the boat who all did a fantastic job. They were always asking us if we were doing ok and if we needed anymore to drink. Not to mention the drinks were great too, not watered down by no means. The food was good too. They served tacos and made sure there was enough for everyone since there was seconds and thirds. The music was hitting bumping as there were line dances and just music to dance to. Yes, you can dance to your hearts content. We had a fun group too which can make a difference. Coming from a cruise, the location where we met them was maybe a minute or two walking distance from the water shuttle drop off. The actual address is not accurate so follow the instructions given on how to get there. I would suggest to also get there on time to be able to grab good seats. I think we probably waited about 5 minutes to take off which we probably had to wait on some stragglers but still nothing to complain about. We did get to see some whales which was the whole reason why we chose this itinerary. We didn’t get to see them jump from the water which I would have loved to see but there’s nothing anyone can do about that. I would definitely pay again for this excursion. If we ever come back, (which we probably will), we will be doing this exact same one. It was all and all fun and exciting. We almost forgot that this was a whale watching excursion on how much fun we had!
Response from Host, Feb 2024

This Travel Agent LOVED this tour!! Highly Recommended!!
Chris_R, Feb 2024
Excellent service from start to finish. The boat is very nice and clean. I was impressed with the accommodations such as the restrooms and dinning area. The crew was amazing! Very polite, profesional, attentive and entertaining. The food and drinks were delicious. I recommend paying the extra $20 for the lobster tail at dinner. We were so lucky to see 10 whales total!! Mama and a baby and a couple whale pods putting on a show!! Such an amazing experience. The arch at sunset is so pretty too! One of the best tours I've ever done and I've been a travel agent for over 25 years. Book the tour. You'll love it!!
Response from Host, Feb 2024

Most TERRIBLE and BAD excursion ever !!
3wbrown, Mar 2023
Tour operator was rude. The excursion was not what it said it was. Everything was filthy and dirty. Very dishonest people
Response from Host, Mar 2023
This review does not represent the work we do. Our Whalewatching tour is one of our classics in Cabo San Lucas and has been like this for the past 15 years. We put a great effort on having a respectful environment in all our tours, as well as keeping our boats sparkling clean, so we do not feel identified with this review at all.
It was a great time....
Julie_S, Jan 2023
It was a great time. Great service and the food was awesome. Entertainment was good. We got to see many whales.
Boat party, minimal whale watch!
Eddie_B, Dec 2022
Delayed departure, minimal whale activity, more of a party boat than a true whale watching experience. Foor was fair, not great.
Whales, Whales and more Whales

Seeing a mom and her two babies cavort in the water. They seemed to know we were watching. They splashed their fins and tails and came partially out of the water, creating a huge splash when they reentered.
We had a great time! The service...
Kimberly M, Feb 2018
We had a great time! The service was great, drinks kept coming, and the staff was fun, friendly, and very engaging. As a bonus, we saw whales - one even breached the water! The sunset was fabulous and the vibe was fun. The only thing that keeps me from giving it 5 stars is the food. We thought it would be a buffet with choices but there were just tacos with your choice of beef or chicken. And it wasn't all that great. We didn't go for the food though, and the experience was great. If you are looking for a whale-watching sunset cruise and the dinner is not that important, this is one to definitely consider!

We booked this trip on line several weeks in advance of our trip for Thursday evening. I received an email back the day after I booked it that the trip was sold out, and was asked to move to Tuesday. I agreed and we made plans to go. on Tuesday afternoon, one hour before we were to meet at the boat I receive an email that the trip had been cancelled, and they offered no explanation. They asked if we could go another time, and I suggested Thursday, which they said was fine was supposed to be sold out?. We went on Thursday, and the boat was perhaps 1/2 full. Unless they had many cancellations it is hard to believe it was ever sold out. We did find out from the crew that the problem on Tuesday had been that someone bought the entire tour for a private group that afternoon, so they cancelled those with reservations. It was pretty inconsiderate with such short notice, and I was very concerned since my credit card had already been billed for the fee. The boat and the crew we had for our whale watching trip were outstanding, with plenty of room, and plenty of included beverages. The crew was friendly, entertaining and knowledgeable. They took us out to and around the arch, allowed photo opportunities, and they explained what we were seeing. We were then able to find and follow whales easily, and the staff explained in great detail everything one would want to know about whales and why they are in Mexico. After the first hour or little more they served dinner, which was very average local food. Luckily we were not counting on a great meal, and the end time of 6:30 allowed us to go to dinner back on land. We snacked on chips and guacamole, but did see there was an option for ordering a lobster tail - a good idea. Once dinner was over the boat stopped, and the crew began their show. Unfortunately this was mostly just recognizing birthdays, etc. of guests. It then became a dance party, which we were really not interested in. We would much rather have spent 30 more minutes watching whales and skipped the line dancing. Others did seem to enjoy it though, so I cannot speak for all. Overall it was a good trip, but not sure I would book with them again.
