Review of Cabo’s luxury catamaran whale-watching cruise, with whale calls, Arch views, drinks, snacks, pickup details, and practical tips.

“We didn't get any reminders or messages about the pick up time. One was sent in January but I checked the app many times and never saw the one they sent with a pick up time. We have done other tours through Viator and had good experiences. We always get reminders. We didn't even get a phone call when they got to the hotel. We were downstairs at that time and could have come right out. I will NEVER use Viator again. I expect a refund!!”

The enthusiasm of both her and our boat captain when we saw whales was contagious and refreshing. And, we saw many, many whales! A few went right under our boat and we could see them in the water next to the boat-and we saw about 10 or so breach from afar. It was amazing!”

A pod of several hundred dolphins surrounded us and were leaping into the air and spinning. What a day!”
