It could not have been better. The guide and boat captain went out of their way to make sure each passenger had the best experience possible. The guide was quite knowledgeable about the whales and marine life and the captain chased down the best observation points and angles. The small size of the boat and passengers optimizes everyone's viewing.

Jo and the captain worked great as a team. We followed a group of 8+ humpback whales for about two hours. You are in a smaller boat that affords everyone the opportunity to see everything. The pictures forwarded the next day are spectacular.

We had a wonderful time! Our guide Paia was a fantastic guide, knowledgeable, friendly and full of information as we watched the incredible display from the many pods we saw. Entirely enjoyable and memorable trip.

Awesome experience! Alonzo the captain was amazing and the marine biologist, Josephine, was our guide and she was delightful and so knowledgeable! We learned a lot and saw several whales pretty close up! Highly recommend this tour group as they respect the animals and take this responsibility seriously.

I would recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Cabo. The group was small (8) and the boat held maybe 12. The boat was new looking and well kept. The boat was fast and we flew thru the water laughing all the way. Our guide was excellent and she was as excited as we were to see the whales, and we did see whales in November. Her information was interesting as well as fun. The boat driver was excellent at finding and following the whales. I can say nothing but good things about this trip. You will enjoy seeing the Lands End Arch close up and the guide took photos for folks with it. My only problem, which is my fault, was I could not figure out how to collect the pictures on Dropbox. I am elderly and just not good with those kinds of programs, so make sure you get good directions. The employee in the office tried very hard and many times to help me but I just could not figure it out so as said MY fault. Go you will LOVE IT ALL!!!!! Also if walking from the cruise ship it was about 15 minutes right around the board walk.

I loved this experience because there were expert biologists that taught us so much about the whales and made sure we saw whales on this tour. I also like their philosophy on conservation!
