About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 25jefft0 contributionsBeautiful tour of the arts!Israel was a great host! Learned a lot while having a great time. Patient and very helpful and knowledgeable. Ask for him!Written January 16, 2025
- lihoul0 contributionsLimited time and choiceNot bad. The whale watching is cool. But after that you can only choose eat in one restaurant or go to downtown. It’s hard to say no when everyone else wants to eat in the restaurant. I didn’t know I won’t have a chance go to the downtown after eating. So don’t choose it if you want to do something particularly.Written January 16, 2025
- 164bismaz0 contributionsWhale watchingWe saw so many whales! We got pretty close and I loved the whole experience. Captain Mela and Marcos were so great! Would definitely recommend! :) I wish I could add videos be where we took so many good ones!Written January 16, 2025
- carloscT8015YS0 contributionsCabo tourThe tour was very informative and Benito was very friendly and kind. He was very knowledgeable and shared fun facts about Cabo. The tequila tasting and chocolate tasting was great.Written January 15, 2025
- roris20250 contributionsincredible experienceExperience was AMAZING! We had whales swim around our boat, close enough to touch! Mele was incredible and very kind and knowledgable!Written January 15, 2025
- Joanna K0 contributionsExcellent Day One TourThis was a good tour for day one in cabo as it orientates you to the basic geography of both san lucas and san jose and you visit the arch by boat. Lunch was good in a local tucked away part of the town that i would never have found as a day 1 traveller. The marguerita was strong 😂. Ismail our guide was very good, the group was only 5 persons so it was a fun day to spend your first day in Cabo.Written January 15, 2025
- Steven T0 contributionsA day in todos santosEnjoyed the day tour with our guide Jesus. He was a great driver and was very knowledgeable about the area and history. Stopped at a blanket makers home and at a pearl store. We did not spend much time there. Lunch at the Hotel California was fun and tasted tequila. E we had plenty of time on our own to walk around. Fun day to be out and about.Written January 14, 2025

- benrE6750LG0 contributionsThe best of Los Cabos all in one tour!Do you want a little taste of everything Cabo has to offer? This tour is it! Jose was out driver and he picked my wife and me up from our hotel. From there he drove us around Cabo San Lucas pointing out various sites on the way to our boat tour! Victor & Fernando were our boat team and they took us out to the arch, snapping wonderful pictures along the way and telling us about the various sites and history of the location. We saw a lot of fish and birds, as well as many sea lions and even a whale! How lucky we were! From there, Jose once again picked us up and took us to some local shops where we could buy some souvenirs and then we got to go to a local glass blowing shop where we got to see a demonstration of the glass blowing! That was remarkable and they are true artisans! Next up was our tequila tasting course with Jesus where they taught us a lot about how tequila is made and the differences between aged and non-aged tequila. We had just enough to sample and learn without feeling like they were loading us up with shots. And connected to the tequila tasting location was a restaurant with very good food that they packaged to go so we could eat it at our final stop… Snorkeling! When we got to the beach another guide (Esperzo? I wasn’t able to catch his name but he was fantastic!) had some chairs and umbrellas set up for us. He also provided snorkel equipment and came with us in the water to help show where the best parts of the reef were! He even had life jackets available if you weren’t the strongest swimmer! We had a lovely time at the beach and seeing the many different fish and coral species. Finally, Jose drove us back to our hotel while also pointing out secret locations for swimming later. If you are looking for a one-stop-shop this is the tour for you!Written January 13, 2025
- vickyrM1966ZR0 contributionsIncredible and fun day of touring!This is an incredible day of touring!! My husband and I did this multi-stop tour as part of our honeymoon and it was one of our favorite activities of the trip. Every staff member guiding the activities, especially our driver and main guide Jose, were very friendly, knowledgeable, and courteous. The tour felt authentic while still being an introduction to the area. The beach is beautiful, we saw plenty of fish before we even snorkeled. The arch is beautiful and the boat staff made it fun. We even got to see whales in the distance! The shops were nice stops and good opportunities to get souvenirs and gifts. Can’t recommend enough! Tour date: 1/13/25Written January 13, 2025

Overall, besides the late pick up, everything else was simply amazing right from the knowledge of the guide, to his sense of humor and also the way he handed the requests of the group was very creditable. The tour itself was very nice. They start off with the glass bottom boat where you get to see a lot of underwater fishes of different types and then they take you to see Lover's beach and finally to what is the most amazing sight of Los Cabos - the Arch and pelican rock. Then onto the divorce beach, and back to the marina. on the way we get to see the sea lions both in the sea of Cortes and on the rock which is called the Sea Lion colony. From there on they take you to see the downtown, glass blown factory and tequila factory (which by the way is not anything to rave about) however the shop itself is the best in downtown Cabo when it comes to prices and selection. Everything from t-shirts to Viagra is sold at this one stop shop.If in Cabo then do this tour overall the best bang for your money. The pick up times (and this was a first for me) was you set it. Really a fun tour.

Rene was a fantastic tour guide and really cared for the experience that we had. He is a great person and knows a great deal about the culture and history of Los Cabos. 10/10 would come back just because of him, he made the trip so special and we would highly recommend him as a guide for any future trips due to his top tier customer service and dedication. He made us feel so welcomed and safe. Great job Rene we will be back!

Stayed at Dreams Los Cabos. Great trip to see the big stops in both Cabo & San Juan. Ismael personalized our trip by making stops to see/do things we wanted. He even went out of his way to find dried mango snacks my wife was looking for while waiting for us to finish shopping. Liked him so much we asked for him to take us to San Juan two days later. Definitely gained a new family friend.

I received an email a few days before stating we were up graded to an excursion that included a light breakfast on a bigger boat and there wasn’t any additional charge. Day of trip we were informed by shuttle pick up driver that the boat issued for our excursion had a mechanical problem and we wouldn’t be able to snorkel, just the city tour with tequila tasting, glass blowing and shopping. I asked them what happened to the original booking we signed up for, showed them the email I received about being upgraded. We wanted to get back on our originally booked trip. Shuttle driver called the office then stated that all other boats were booked for a private event. Basically informing us that we were bumped off our trip we booked for a private event and then they weren’t able to provide the snorkeling portion of our trip. We canceled due to not wanting to just do a city tour and thankfully our amazing concierge at our hotel was able to get us on another snorkeling trip that same day. Lesson learned is to not be fooled when they all of a sudden “upgrade” you. We were definitely NOT upgraded and if anything dealt with a situation that could’ve been avoided had they just informed us that they didn’t value us as customers as much as they value someone booking for a private event.

The boat had a great crew, ready to party; drinks were good and snorkeling was okay. The tequila tasting wise nice too. We had an hour to walk and shop; made a mistake going to the Marina, we were bombarded with sales pitches the whole walk through. We got the fish pedicure done in this time which wasn't too pricey and quick fun
Our tour guide Ismael messed up on time management and we weren't able to go to the glass blowing activity. I requested a partial refund and got have of that request, which was okay. We picked this trip in particular because of the glass blowing , so not doing it disappointed me more than the other couples in our group. Ismael didn't seem to care much or take accountability that we missed it

My tour guide was Uvaldo. He was very professional and accommodating. And very knowledgeable about the area. We started with the glassblowing experience which gave me a deeper appreciation for that type of artisan. Next, we ended up at the velvet box which gave insight To Pearl cultivation. Then on to a 3 to 4 hour cruise on a pirate ship which included an hour of snorkeling. They had yummy food and an open bar and we didn’t get to see any fish while snorkeling, but we did get to see a whale. The water was pretty murky. There was lots of music, and dancing on the boat and the crew was a lot of fun. Afterwards there was the tequila tasting, and then some local shopping. I would recommend this to anyone visiting for the first time.

We just LOVE your review, thank you so much for all the details, you just described the minute by minute of the experience, after reading it, I feel proud that all the stops were followed so diligently by our dear Uvaldo, he is a real gem in our team.
Totally agree with you, our Cabo San Lucas Shopping, Tequila Tasting, and Snorkel Tour is a MUST DO for all first time visitors!
Thank you.- Wendy T.

Was picked up by Charlie who talked to us about the history of wonderful Cabo history and traditions while he took us to our destinations. The party boat was an absolute blast, VIC our microphone man pumped up the crowd as we sailed to snorkeling. This was a fun time for everyone!! I’d absolutely recommend it. Music was great, food was good and all you can drink. Wonderful! Stay on the bottom deck if you want to chill or get to the top if you want to let it loose.

Gio, our bus tour guide, was outstanding. The boat ride, however, was a complete disappointment. Overbooked so my family had to stand the entire time and service was nonexistent. Aside from the galley who made excellent tacos, we were not once offered any drinks. Snorkeling was fun but only lasted 10 minutes before being told to get back on the boat. Next time, we will just take a cab to the beach and enjoy snorkeling from shore.

This was a very fun time. We really enjoyed the tours prior to the sailing/snorkeling activity. They were super informative and fun to watch the artisan demonstrations. The boat ride on the catamaran was also fun. Not so fun was snorkeling near Chileno Beach where there were tons of small jellyfish. Fortunately the stings were more bothersome than hurtful but no one was comfortable swimming in the water. (Ppl jumped in the water and then quickly back out after getting stung a few times). The boat operators allowed for kayaking and paddle boarding too which was cool. The lunch wasn’t the greatest but it was food and you could go back for seconds. DJ was great and we all had a fun time when the open bar started with alcohol.

I have been on several party cruises around the world before that also did snorkeling and this one seemed rather bland. They did not crank the music up until about the last 15 minutes and the party atmosphere of course didn’t start till that happened. It felt very unexciting to me. I could’ve gotten the same feeling laying out by the pool. But I was looking for a party.
