The staff was very nice and helpful as well as knowledgable. The boat was very clean and in good shape. Safety info was given before boarding as well as after. My wife and I were very pleased with the trip. |

My sister came out from Pittsburgh PA with our niece who is 8, and wanted to see dolphins. We encountered 3 species of dolphins (with some swimming right next to the boar) nd a humpback whale. The water was calm that day. We had a great time! |

Saw three different type of dolphins, and only one whale. Numerous seals. Really wanted to see otters, but they cant control what you see. It was really enjoyable and interesting. The female guide was really informative. I would go again on this tour. |

Great tour |

It was a wonderful trip. The boat ride was a treat by itself, but the opportunity to observe whales in the ocean (as opposed to an acquarium) was surreal. The trip has been filed away as one of our cherished family memories. Thank you very much. |

It is a nice 3 hour trip in to the ocean. We saw some dolphins, and 3 humpback whales. We were hoping to see them breach, throwing their odies out of the water, but we could only see it when we were approaching them. They decided not to breach when we were near. All in all it is quite an enjoyable experience watching these gentle giants.

We had a great time. The boat maneuvered close enough to get some great video of the whales. The guide aboard was knowledgeable and informed. The one complaint is not against the boat or crew, but the Pacific Ocean. Once we got clear of the bay, we were in 8-10' swells. The boat moved quite a bit, and it was a little disconcerting. The boat was 100', and I cannot imagine having gone with one of the other cruise operators on their 70' boats. They would be like a cork in those seas. Overall, well worth the money and very enjoyable, but if you are prone to nausea, take some Dramamine. |

This is the third time we have gone out on the Princess Monterey. Every time we have gone out we have had a great experience. On this trip we saw a number of whales including a mother and her baby. Last time we had more that a dozen dolphins following our boat. Each time we have gone out there has been a marine biologist to tell us about all the sea life and the birds. They have all been very good but this one, her name was Catherine, was exceptional. Her enthusiasium rubbed off on everyone. |
