Reviews: Monterey Bay: Whale Watching Tour
Guest User2026-04-08
This whale watching tour was a truly special experience. We were very lucky to witness a humpback whale interacting closely with our boat, almost as if it was playing with us. It felt like a once-in-a-lifetime moment that we will never forget. The crew was absolutely fantastic: super friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and taken care of at all times, creating a really relaxed and positive atmosphere on board. Everything about this tour exceeded our expectations. We would 100% recommend this experience to anyone - it’s an absolute must-do!

Reviews: Monterey: Monterey Bay Dolphin and Whale Watching Boat Tour
Guest User2026-04-05
Kevin was an amazing host! The activity was fun, engaging, entertaining, and we got to see lots of whales, dolphins, and cool fish! My partner got seasick and they were kind enough to keep checking on us and have helpful tips on how to deal with it. The ocean was beautiful and the boat was very nice. Many forehead kisses to this lovely crew.

Reviews: Monterey, Carmel and 17-Mile Drive: Full Day Tour from SF
Guest User2026-01-10
We had a great day out on this trip on the 3rd Jan. I have always wanted to visit Carmel, my late Dad always mentioned how much he loved it when he visited, and to be able to go to places along the Pacific coastal highway, so I thought this was a great way to do it whilst on holiday in SF. Our tour guide was Don, he was a great guide for the day. Kept us entertained from start to finish, with lots of stories and info about California and the places we were visiting. He also has a history of studying marine biology, so shared some interesting facts about this as marine life is a fundamental part of this area of California. I particularly found his talk about John Steinbeck interesting as we drove through Salinas (aka. Steinbeck country), as well as the stories of his cat, Errol who he says he takes on trips with him sometimes 🀣. We had to leave our cat in a cattery whilst away so it was fun to hear his stories of his cat whilst we were missing our own. Don managed our time at each stop very efficiently, making sure we all got to see the picturesque spots and get sufficient shots of the amazing scenery along the way. This was also helped by all of our fellow travellers making sure they were back to the bus at the time Don had given us which was good. He mentioned that it was his favourite tour to take people on, out of the tours the company offers, and you could tell he was genuinely interested and happy to share his knowledge and stories with everyone. The tour time was managed so well that we got to go to each spot for the alloted time in our itinerary, and then even managed to get an extra 20 minutes in Carmel to explore which I was very happy about. This gave us time to visit the beach for a walk (very important to me as my late father had always wanted to take us there), as well as having a stroll around the town. Overall it was a great day that we will both remember for the rest of our lives, we had a great time in San Francisco, and also went on a brilliant tour to Yosemite earlier in the week. I would highly recommend these guided tours to anyone thinking about going. They're well worth the money.
