| This was the first time we visited Monterey and we would definitely do it again. Only this time, I would wear flat shoes and dress warmer. The crew were informative and the trip was exciting.
Thank you. |

| This is the first Whale Watching trip I have taken. You dont see much of the whale but I guess that was expected really.
The trip was very choppy and I felt sick. Several other other people did vomit. I think we could have had a more accurate warning about this before boarding and the facilty to obtain a refund of an advance booking if its felt that the conditions dont suit. |

Don't forget the sunscreen!

| We very much enjoyed our trip. The boat was clean and the crew was friendly, especially liked the naturalist who went with us. She was very informative and fun. We got to see quite a few whales which made my wife and little girl very happy. I especially enjoyed the 17 mile run out to where we saw them. It was a bit choppy and I loved standing in the front of the boat. Was like an amusement park ride...quite exhilerating. |

| I was a little skepticle at first since I've only been on a motor boat. However, shortly after the cruise started I realized it was going to be fine. I couldn't believe how many dolphins we saw. It was awsome. The whales were amazing. I think I was a little more surprised at what I saw than my husband because he was in the navy and had seen many dolphins and whales before. Even he admitted though, that he would go on the cruise again. We had a great time. The people who run this cruise line do a great job. Our "guide" was very knowledgable. We highly recommend this to everyone. |

| We were in Monterey for a few days from the SF Bay Area. We've been to the aquarium a few times in the past so we decided to do something different. It was nice to see the humpback whales and dolphins in their natural habitats. Something we won't soon forget. |

| Our cruise was a 2.5 hr tour that left at 1:30 p.m. at the beginning of July.
We found 2 whales after 30 min of sailing out and chased them for about 1.5 hr.
Towards the end, they decided to play and splashing water using their whole body or tails, which was amazing.
Most of my friends went to the aquarium instead, but I was glad I did the whale watching. There were 2 other boats from different cruise companies, but they were on the other side of the whales.
Wind was strong, and it was cold, so you should be prepared for it. |
