Hello Jerry!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, we’re so happy to hear your Christmas sail was such a great experience for the whole family. Knowing the kids had a blast with whales, snorkeling, paddleboarding, beach time, and island views truly means a lot to us. We appreciate your kind words about our crew and would be delighted to welcome you back anytime for another unforgettable family adventure on the water.
Highly recommend! Very pleased with the boat and crew with a photographer too! Had plenty of drinks (margaritas, beer, etc) with quesadillas, guacamole etc. Our crew of Martin, the captain and first mate, Jessica and Ali the photographer were awesome. Very accommodating and willing to adjust as we wanted during the course of the trip. Saw a few whales, caught some great wind and rolled out both sails, took pictures close to the Arch, etc. I would definitely use this company again.

Hello Ginna,
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We’re thrilled to hear that Captain Martin, Jessica, and Ali made your experience so memorable with their attentive service and flexibility. Sailing under full wind, spotting whales, and capturing special moments near the Arch sounds like an unforgettable day. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back aboard Papillon Yachts for another incredible adventure!
Best tour ever! From our pickup driver Armando, to our captain Martin and our guide Jessica, everybody was so nice and sweet, and don’t forget our photographer! We even got to see three giant whales swimming right next to our boat! We saw a lot of big and beautiful fish at our snorkeling site. Highly recommend!

This was the most amazing night in Cabo we've had! The boat crew was amazing. I booked the day of and immediately after booking, I got a call from someone in their office confirming our reservation, our pick up and drop off spot to and from our resort, and confirming the time we wanted to be picked up. Our driving was a couple minutes early in a silver Mercedes SUV, it was so lux and he was so cool. Once we got to the marina the crew members of the boat (Leyva and Alberto) as well as the on-board photographer (Ruty) met us at the entrance of the office. The Papillon 2 office was clean and nice!! We got on the boat and it was seriously so nice and private and comfortable. We did a couples booze cruise and they made us the best cocktails, showed us the rocks and sailed for a little while. We anchored down in one spot to watch the sunset and the crew had made us quesadillas with guac and salsa and chips and it was so stunning and beautiful. One of the girls in our group was getting super sea sick and they were so flexible with us, taking the boat in early. They were awesome.
We were all so happy and pleasantly surprised how awesome this experience was and how beautiful it ended up being. The crew and photographer were amazing and surpassed our expecations and never once felt un-safe. The photographer at the end charged for the photos he took, it was about $275 total, but we split between everyone on the sailboat and in my opinion, it was so worth it, his quality was awesome.
This experience was so incredible, and I've already recommended it to a couple girlfriends going this summer too.

Hello Savanna!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us, we greatly appreciate it! I will be sure to pass your warm compliments on to our wonderful driver, captain, and crew. Were so happy to hear you enjoyed your experience with your friends and that everything exceeded your expectations. We hope to have you all back with us next time you're in Cabo!
This was the best sailing experience. From the beginning when Julio was so flexible to pick us up early, to our awesome and skilled Captain Arturo to every need being met by Alexis. All these guys were more like friends and amigos than a paid tour. The personal time for you and your loved ones make priceless memories. It was like having our own personal sailboat, without all the maintenance!

Hello Ying!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us, we're so happy you enjoyed everything! I will be sure to pass your warm compliments on to our wonderful captain and crew. Thank you!
Oh my gosh, such an amazing experience!!! Sedrick, Sergio, and Rudy were the best. We felt safe the whole time. We had never sailed before and it was absolutely one of the best experiences. They catered the trip to our wants and made this luxurious private trip well worth the money. By the way some of the other cruises that were not private came out to be more money per person than this trip cost us. Sedrick was an amazing host, Sergio’s food was yummy, and We had to buy Rudy’s pictures because they were works of art. Would recommend this to anyone looking to feel all the luxury Cabo has to offer!
