| The staff and crew were great. We unfortunately did not see any whales but did see a large group of Risso Dolphins. Ocean was ruff with big swells. I took dramamine and did not eat before going out, otherwise I would definately have been sick. many others did get sick, but that's part of deal. |

| It was a good experience for me, my husband and our well-socialized dog. The captain and the marine biologist welcomed my dog very much (but of course, your dog should be well-behaved and on leash at all times during the trip). I would recommend this to those who are patient to wait for the whales to surface on the water. This excursion is also for the true wildlife lovers, should understand that whales can be quite elusive but are fun to see once they're there. Sea birds are also fun to watch. |

| Staff was great, was able to see a few whales and even had some breech right in front of the ship. We would do this again and would recommend to others. |

| When we stood at the boarding gate, the driver of the Princess Monterey told us that it's a little choppy out there but it's nothing to stop us. When we got into the boat and out into the ocean, there were 40-50 foot swells. It felt like the boat was literally jumping into the air it was so rough and bad. I ended up getting sea sick and had to lay down the entire time. I know for a fact I wasn't the only one that was sick. If that man would have told us that it was going to be THAT bad, I never would have gone, but needless to say, I was stuck on the boat extremely sick for 2 1/2 hours!! The people who DIDN'T get sick got to see a few humpback whales which was good, but it definitely wasn't worth it!!!!!!!!!!
I recommend this cruise as long as there isn't swells out in the water!!! |

| Ordering tickets online was fast and easy. They had our reservation written down when we got there so check-in was quick and easy. We saw several whales and they were very accommodating when the other person in my party got seasick. The whole experience was a pleasant and memorable one. |

| the trip in general was great. the staff was polite and well educated and the boat was beautiful. starting out was fun and exciting with many oppertunities to see marine mamals. the only problem was not of the staff but my own, sea sickness set in about half way through. but accomidations were still made. all in all the trip was a success. |
