The actual whale watching part of this tour was great. We saw several mothers and calves and saw a calve breaching several times. I have no complaint about this part. While enjoying the beach in Sayulita, we watched whale watching boats come and go from the beach and assumed that this was how we would leave for our trip, but we were transported by van about 45 minutes away where we boarded our boat. Then at the end of the trip, our boat captain called a couple of taxis to transport us back to Sayulita. I would have assumed that the return transportation was included in the Viator charge, but the taxi driver insisted that he had not been paid. Scam? Perhaps. The good news is that the taxi was pretty reasonable for the distance traveled. It was sort of a strange experience -- not the usual seamless Viator operation I have experienced in the past.
Lovely people and felt cared for
It took a bit of time to find them but
We were so lucky to find many whales playing and jumping.
We didn’t give up and it was worth the effort!
Beautiful experience
We jad an incredible private tour that was beyond belief. At on point ee were raxi g a pod of at least 6 or more whales. We saw many pods up close and many more at a distance all over the bay. We even got into a large pod of dolphins! It was perfect!
