More Than We Expected
Fri, Jun 8, 07   10:00 AM JudyReading Unspecified Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Everyone was helpful from start to finish. The introductory information was especially helpful since "land lovers" rarely know know the difference between starboard and portside so using the movement of the clock for identifying whale locations was ideal. The marine biologist was pleasant , approachable, and very knowledgeable. It was more than exciting to see so many whales in all their majesty and much of it would have been lost had the biologists narration about what we were seeing and how it all came to be had not been provided. We had a varied group on board from a sixth grade graduation party group to those in their 60's and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and the information imparted met the needs of all the age groups. The ship was clean from top to bottom the crew professional and helpful I would HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone seeking a true whale watching experience, you can't explain the excitement of seeing a hump back whale breeching FABULOUS.

Really cool!

We saw 9 whales and the trip was throughly enjoyed by the children ages 5 and 6 and the adults. We had a lot of adventures on this past vacation, but the kids seem to have been most impressed with the whales as today they were playing whale watching and over heard to say "look, their's a whale at 6:00!"

Since the activity was canceled we cannot make a good statement here. However, the refund was appropriate in time. Regards, Marco Pavone

Well Done

The young lady we had do the describing was friendly and seemed to know her material. We were glad to have seen a whale even though it was very foggy and commend the "skipper" for following it (all the other boats came and "poached" our whale) and staying with it - even giving us a few extra looks at the end.

Great looks at whales, not enough info re birds
Sat, Jun 2, 07   10:00 AM Theresahartz Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
While recognizing that the focus was on whales, we were primarily bird wathchers and had hoped for better t the seabirds. The naturalist was not very interested about giving info on the birds, and indeed admitted that she had forgotten her binoculars! At the beginning of the trip, she stated that one of her focus was on birds.

Humpback whales put on a show of leaping out of the water. Great sight. Weather was less than great, but whale activity made up for the slightly unfavorable weather.

Good Whale watching, No naturalist
Tue, May 29, 07   10:00 AM KittyB Female 40-49 Combination Group of Friends
We were able to get some of our questions answered, but not very many. There was no naturalist on board even though it was advertised that there was. We got very lucky in seeing whales...the captain knew where they were.

The right boat makes a big difference
Tue, May 29, 07   10:00 AM SunshineGirl Female 30-39 Local Other
This was my second time whale watching from the Monterey Warf. From the experience I've had I can honestly say that what type of boat you go out on, has as much if not more to do with how pleasant or memorable your experience will be, as whether or not you see any whales or marine life. The Princess is a great boat and is truly set up to ideally handle large groups of people all eager to spot ocean life up close and personal. The inside cabin is completely surrounded by windows allowing those who may get cold to still see from inside. The larger profile of the Princess also means a smoother ride!! I big bonus if you are one to get sea sick, or for older or very young family members that may not do as well on a smaller more rocky boat's deck. Over all I'd highly recommend the Princess for your first or future whale watching excursions.

We would highly recommend this to anyone...young or old (unless you are prone to seasickness). It's a big boat which helped. We saw lots of whales, otters, birds, seals etc. Length of time was just enough.

Unforgettable trip
Sun, May 27, 07   1:30 PM dawnd80 Female 20-29 Local Family Without Children
The crew is very friendly. We saw 5 to 6 whales serveral times during the trip. The graduate student who accompanies the trip told us a lot about whales. It's a fun trip for both adults and children.
