| The whale watching has been very little, only few tails from a long distance. I would not do it again. | ||||||

| This was a special treat for my myself and my sister and my nephew. They had never seen whales before and I was so excited that we actually saw them upclose. The staff was very knowledable. The seas were rocking and the weather was cold. But it did not keep us from being excited to be where we were at that moment. Great time had by all! | ||||||

Whale Watching in Monterey Bay

| This was a one of a kind experience. This Whale Watching Cruise had a marine biologist on-board that was fantastic. She was great with people, funny and very knowledgeable. When whales were sighted it was often difficult to define who was more excited. She definitely loved her job and made it a great experience for our family. We saw about 20 humbacks and were able to get within 100yards. It was quite cold for mid-July, but worth it. I'd advise taking the necessary pills to stave off sea sickness. We were out for the full 2.5 hrs and the seas were rolling pretty good. There were a few green faces by the halfway point. But a small price to pay to see these magnificent creatures in their natural surroundings. | ||||||

| This was our second whale watching trip. The experience was awesome! The whales (humpbacks) were breathtaking, to say the least! The naturalist/marine biologist was not only extremely knowledgeable, but very energectic, which was awesome! It was well worth the money, which I thought was incredibly reasonable. | ||||||

Fantastic trip to see whales - highly recommended!

| My family (including two children age 13 and 10) and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip out on the ocean to see the whales. It was such fun and the guide/staff was very informative and quite entertaining. We were very lucky to see four whales which surrounded our boat and another boat near us. I suppose your can either be lucky or not on the day but we were certainly very lucky to see these beautiful mammals so close. | ||||||

Watch whales in Monterey (and otters and seals...)

| It was a hazy Sunday morning trip when we joined the Princess Cruise. Large group of people got on board in short order, and off we went. Quite a swell so there were a few green faces (and consequent food for fish), but when we got out to sea and the whales were spotted, everything seemed to become calmer. We had a pod of 4 swimming around us and another boat, and everyone had a good chance to take a photo or 30. Overall a very successful, and recommended, boat trip. Hints: yes it can be cool offshore so wrap-up / take whatever coats or oilskins you took to California with you. - Don't eat a big greasy breakfast before getting on board. - Keep an eye out for the cool birdlife on the ocean, and the sealions flapping their flippers as if they were snoozing on a mid-ocean raft. | ||||||

Outstanding Trip w/many whales seen

| The trip proved to be one of the best per our guide as we saw as many as 25 humpbacks over the course of the trip. Most notable was the pod of 4 whales that circled our boat for about 30min offering excellent upclose views. We would highly recommend the trip to others, one other advantage was the large ship size compared to many other, which minimized the sometimes rough sea. | ||||||

This is a trip that I will never forget

| First of all, I want to thank the crew who were patiently waiting for our group as we were running a bit late. They could have set off without us but they did waited for us. That is a really nice gesture. We have never seen whales before and this trip is really amazing. We were very lucky because there were two humpback whales that came really close to our boat. I could almost touch them from the boat. The two whales were very curious about us and they did many flips infront of us and blew their top too. That is really an incredible feeling to watch the whales from such a close distance. I highly recommend anyone who is interested to watch whales to go on the Princess Monterey. | ||||||

Great Experience and Guide

| We saw several groups of humpback whales. A mother and calf were close and we were able to observe them for ~45 minutes. It was amazing. The calf was curious about a fellow tour boat and got up close and personal with that boat. The calf even breached out of the water once. We saw the other whales from a further distance. The guide was very knowledgable and entertaining. She seemed as excited as us. My boyfriend was disappointed that we didn't see any other wildlife (besides sea lions) while out on the cruise but the humpback whales were enough for me:) | ||||||

| the crew and experience is incredible, I did get sea sick (despite I was in the Navy). So my only suggestion is take something even if you are use to being at sea, you never know how conditions will affect you. | ||||||

Best one yet!

| This was my third time whale watching. Each one was a good experience.But i have to say this was a GREAT EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!!! It was by far the best one I have ever been on. What made it great? We not only saw a Mama whale and her baby but we saw the baby totally out of the water! Amazing!!!!!!!!!! The other thing that made it GREAT was the woman who was our guide. She was so pumped about her job you just had to love it too! She made it fun and exciting. Thanks to the Captain and all the crew.Huge kudos to the lady on the mic, our guide was totally off the hook!!!!!!!! Many Thanks, Linda Martinez | ||||||

No warning for intensity

| While the tour staff were very knowledgeable, professional, and kind, the tour was a bit more intense than we anticipated. We were not warned that the water would be so rough, and 3 hours of constant choppy water and cold air prevented the trip from being at all enjoyable. I would just recommend that people are clearly warned ahead of time that the ride can/will be very very rough. | ||||||

One of the highlights of our USA tour!!

| We were able to see several greys, many humpbacks 3 orca's, blue whale's, many dolphins, seals and many other sea mamals. We found it very much worth the money! The water was a bit chopy but nobody got sick. John Ham, The Netherlands | ||||||

| This was an amazing trip for all of us (including children ages 3 and 5). The marine biologist on the trip was not only very intellegent, but funny and personable too! We were able to see humback whales, pacific white sided dolphins, and killer whales. The boat is very nice with an inside cabin that was heated to break the chill. The cabin also had a variety of snacks and drinks available to purchase. It is a good value for the cost! I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone thinking about going. We are already planning when we can go again! | ||||||
