  i will do this again, i was soooo impressed, it was fun and informative. the only tiny complaint i had was the p.a. system was very difficult to hear, need better or new speakers, i'd say. but the info given was great. seen a mother humpback with her baby and i was just awe struck, just so spectacular to be so close and we tracked along with her. it was so awesome when she dove back down and that huge tail (not the technical name, but i didn't hear what the lady said it was called) stood up there, just like you see on the nature shows, but you are right there, it's breath taking. we also saw thousands of jelly fish on that particular day and of course the sea lions, what a treat. i did learn alot of things from the very informative lady (naturalist??) everyone should experience this at least once. those wonderful animals are the greatest of gifts for us to watch and enjoy and realize just how important their protection is. i now know why the whale doesn't just munch down on the sea lions. but you gotta go to know. i hope you take my word for it. i rank it up there with one of my greatest experiences. well worth the cost of the trip. oh yeah the lady doing the commentary is FUNNY, for a little extra bonus. and ladies the captain was pretty easy on the eyes (hee hee) and very skilled at piloting that big boat. the whole staff that i had any dealings with were very pleasant and friendly. great customer service.

  We saw two hunchback whales, a mother and her calf, at first they just swam around but after a little while they both started jumping out of the water and it was great. We watched them perform for about an hour. We also saw jellyfish and seals. The whales were fantastic.

  It was neat. I liked the guy that led the tour except I'm not sure that the talking on the speaker didn't spook the whales (of course I'm not a science person, just curious).
Rating: 2 Not as it may seem...disappointing

  No humpback whales or anything close to that, we were merely "chasing" a killer whale (free willy) and from pretty far away, we didn't get to see the entire whale.
Rating: 4 loved seeing the orca and humpbacks

  We had a marvelous, memorable afternoon. While some conditions such as the weather and the number of dolphins and whales we saw are not within anyone's control, the factors within the company's control were wonderful as well. The ship was clean and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly polite and knowledgeable. We definitely plan to bring other friends on this activity.
Rating: 5 Great weather, great trip and great whales :)

  I really enjoyed the trip and would definitely recommend it to others. The day I went out with Princess Monterey was a nice and sunny day, with fairly calm waters and only a half-full boat, so there was plenty of space on the really nice boat the company uses. The captain and his crew did an excellent job and the biologist on-board was giving us detailed information about the Risso dolphins and Humpback-whales we saw on the trip. Especially the three Humpbacks we saw were amazing and they actually came within 10-15 feet of the boat, so we could really see them up close and also smell their breath (Mint anyone :) Overall, it was an experience for a lifetime and I will not hesitate going on another trip with the Princess Monterey.
