Really well done and unique experience. Both the captain and guide were excellent. We particularly enjoyed the small group aspect of this trip, making it a much more perthe photo package as the guide is much better at capturing shots than than we were.sonal adventure. We saw many whales and I highly recommend the photo package as the guide is much better at capturing the action shots.

Marine biologist guide was outstanding and very knowledgeable. Our kids were hanging on every word she said. Our boat Capt knew just where to go to ensure we saw whales and spent extra time making sure we had the most amazing experience! The small group experience was perfect for us. We loved the safety precautions with mandatory life vests having younger children onboard too. High, high recommend.

We have done Whale Watching in the past but NEVER seen anything like we saw on this trip. Fantastic! Multiple Humbpack Whales ranging from extremely young to HUGE males "putting on a show" for a female. WOW!

Overall, we had a very successful whale watching tour! We saw a cow, calf pair with a very active calf! We also saw a few adults further back. If you are considering going whale watching during the season- do it. Know that this area is bit different from others if you’ve been whale watching before. There is less regulation for interaction with the whales. Also, there is more of a focus on making money than nature. However, we had a very knowledgable team of guide and captain. They were able to share a lot about the whales!

Very good guide and captain. A good boat that could move quickly when whales were spotted and very interesting commentary.
Thoroughly enjoyed it

The tour was very well organized! Our guide was very knowledgeable and nice! We loved our tour. We were able to see a few whales even though it was towards the end of the whale season and were so happy!

The boat fits up to 14 passengers. Everyone has a good seat for viewing the seas and we all were given life jackets. Four people at a time are allowed to sit at the very front of the boat. Since it was still calving season, so we got to see baby whales with their moms and escort. We only saw their tails and didn't see any breaching whales. Our tour guide was a marine biologist and was very knowledgeable about the marine life in Cabo. Our boat captain was very good and steered us in the right direction any time there was a sighting of whales. I, unfortunately, got sea sick half way through so I had to lay my head down for the second half of the boat ride. There is a small bathroom on the boat in case of emergencies. It's very windy so I'd make sure to bring a jacket and sunglasses. Other passengers saw manta rays. The tour stops at the famous arches for picture opportunities. Overall, I'd recommend the tour but take a dramamine if you have any history of motion sickness.

The captain and guide both were amazing! I went with 3 friends and we all had a really great time. Our guide was funny, sweet, and super knowledgable. We saw more whales than we expected and got to learn a lot about the area and its marine life. Absolutely recommend!
