Caborey

The staff is great. The lady who does the check-in in the boat is super friendly and nice. All the waiters were super attentive as well. The food is okay. Flavor is lacking but they have several options and even had two sweet treats. The live band was okay…they play mostly rock which IMO seems a bit out of place for the vibe. You’re in Mexico… I would expect at least Latin songs. The views of the arch and the sunset are great but then the boat just sits there for like 2 hours.

If you are wondering which dinner sunset cruise to take in Cabo, this is the one! You may see a dinner cruise advertised with a three course meal (Premier) or one with a fajita buffet. This occurs on the same ship, but the experience will be different. I recommend choosing the three course meal (while more expensive, it is worth it). As you board the cruise ship, a souvenir photo is taken, you do not need to buy it, but we chose to buy ours. Once on board we were very catered to - we were personally shown our dining area on the first floor, and given a choice of our seating. We were lucky in that we chose a table near the dance floor where the show would take place later, but it also had a wonderful view of the ocean and surroundings through the tall windows. We were given the option to discuss our meal preferences and were provided an explanation of how the evening and dinner would go. Then we were guided to the third floor/top deck, where the open bar and live music were happening. Many people were inclined to find seating, but we stood at what we thought was the back of the ship (behind the bar). It turns out it was the front! The ship will turn in the Marina before heading out to sea and this is the place you want to be! We enjoyed the music and drinks and sightseeing. It was actually magnificent! About an hour into the cruise we made our way down to our dinner. Our first course was a beautifully plated salad, I chose the steak as my second course, and our third course was a variety of little desserts. The first floor is better appointed and is table service. The second floor is buffet style, less “fancy”, and does not have the show. And the SHOW competes with the breathtaking views as the best part! It was the pinnacle of the evening with traditional song and dance. The singer and dancers were unparalleled. We chose this cruise on our last evening in Cabo and I’m SO glad we did. It was the perfect ending to a great vacation!

We thoroughly enjoyed this experience. We did the premium dinner and show package. The dinner was delicious. My husband and I had the sea bass and shrimp. Our waiter was attentive and took care of all our needs. The show was top-notch! Prior to dinner, we saw the sunset out over the water and got to view the Arch. There was even a live band that played a variety of musical genres and open bar on the top deck. My photos were award winning! It was well worth the money to get all of this in one ticket.

We really enjoyed this dinner cruise. It is what we were looking for when we arrived and didn’t unfortunately find until our last night. We started out getting to choose our seats for the dinner and show. Then we headed up to the top deck to enjoy a mixture of live music and recorded as we got underway and cruised out into the bay. Lots of people enjoying the ride and view. The wait staff were prompt in getting refills and no up charge pressures. Then as sunset approached we were invited to return to the first deck for dinner and the floor show of singing and dancing. Since we were just one couple we shared a table with a couple that we didn’t know, but had pleasant conversation over dinner and between routines. The steak, fish, and shrimp were all very nice. Dinner and the show were so good that I lost track of time and realized as the show completed that it was fully dark and we were almost back to the pier. We went back to the top deck to enjoy a little more music and the experience of returning to the pier. It did seem like there were three different overlapping cruises going on. We were experiencing the sit down dinner cruise, there seemed to be a buffet dinner on the second deck that we didn’t experience and then it seemed that some people were just enjoying the cruise and drinks on the top deck. Not sure how you book the other options, but I think it would be worth experiencing. One thing I do wish had been clearer. We arrived the hour early that is recommended, however nothing says Caborey at the gates that keep you off the pier. I wasn’t certain that we were in the right place, but joined a line of people waiting to go in and hoped. As the cruise time approached, I started seeing crew in Caborey shirts entering the pier area and I felt better.

We truly enjoyed our excursion. The vibe was wonderful, the food was tasty. Staff was very friendly.

Well organized, very attentive staff never letting you go thirsty, band was solid, views of the arches, the coastline and sunset were wonderful. It was not too crowded at all. Buffet was okay, better than a meal we had on shore anyway. One regret was that we did not realize that on the first level they had local dancers performing. We would have liked to see. Highly recommend.

Great experience, open bar, dancing, and music. Great food Tres leches cake was amazing! Staff was accommodating the bigger boat made it for a more enjoyable experience. You’re not crowded on a small catamaran.

Fantastic sunset cruise to the arch via Trip Advisor. Cruise time 6pm means they actually set sail at 6pm sharp. They tell you to get there by 515pm. We got there at 5 and already a line. Fun time on top drinking, seeing the sights, and enjoying the live band from 530-7. Dinner below at 7 was well done. Great ovolactovegetarian entree. They kept the drinks (including non alcoholic ones coming). When it got dark there were performers dancing Tango (Argentine and regular) and traditional Mexican dances (what they call Ballet Folklorico at my son's school in Los Angeles). They also took nice photos (that cost extra $ of course). Overall fun and filling.

They had Coke products! Food was delicious! The service was very friendly! Pedro did a great job helping us! Ambient was enjoyable!

This was absolutely one of the best things we did on this trip to Cabo. This is an evening dinner cruise that offers an indoor exquisite dinner and classic Mexican. Dancing show if you up for that package. My wife had Chateaubriand and I had lobster for dinner. The château Briand was exquisite, it was very tender and super flavorful. The lobster was a good size, and also just as tender melted in your mouth. The indoor set up as well done so you can see the sunset and the Cabo arch no matter where you are seated. The tour was approximately two hours, and started out with the band on top deck. With free drinks then after time, you're invited to go downstairs to enjoy your dinner and the sunset as well as a show with traditional Mexican dancers all in all great package for a couple wanting more low-key and romantic evening away from the routine nightlife in Cabo.

This was a great experience! When you first get on the boat they show you to your table to confirm the food ordered for your reservation. Then we were lead to the deck on top where they had a live band and drinks! The drinks were good & not watered down. The views were beautiful as we went around the arch and watched the sunset. Eventually we went downstairs and had a great dinner. The food was honestly, really delicious! After eating we ended the night with a saw a beautiful show with dance & singing talent! Would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for a nice dinner cruise around the arch (:

We had a great time. Not fancy in any way, so don't expect that. It's a very casual fun time. The food was actually better than we expected for a buffet. And the drinks were really good with a very accommodating staff. Not sure if they have different bands on the cruises that change out, but we got a rock band.....like AC/DC Rock. So not the most relaxing or dance music, but they were really good. Just not what we were expecting. But overall great time.

Complete waste of time and money. You literally take a 10 minute ride around lovers beach, circle around 4 times, endure horrible service, mediocre food, and an overall pathetic experience. Save your money and go to a restaurant or book something else. Will never do this again.

Absolutely fun and amazing dinner cruise. Nice boat with multiple levels and the party deck on the upper level with as much as you wanted to drink before dinner. Staff was friendly and cordial and quick to refill any drink if necessary. Dinner was excellent. Not something that you would expect in this type of venue. Salads and main courses along with dinner. All had excellent presentation and was cooked perfectly. The after dinner entertainment was authentic Mexican, dancing and the celebration of the Mexican culture. Everyone in our entire party agreed that this was a very good experience overall and would recommend it. This was our second time experiencing this dinner cruise and was just as good as the first time.

Before heading to La Paz, my friends and I decided to take a sunset cruise with Cabo Rey. The process of finding the boat and boarding was no issue. Very easy process. Once we boarded, since dinner was being served we were shown our table. But afterwards, we were free to go to the top deck for drinks, live music and views. The drinks were included in the package but they were incredibly sweet. Way too much sugar to the point they messed with our stomachs a bit. The live music was really nice and allowed for everyone to get up and dance. The big plus was seeing the rock formations and arches. And the boat would make a 369 turn to allow for everyone to get up close to the arches. As the sun started to set, it looked like it was going to be a beautiful sunset. Yet we were called down for dinner. And you cannot really see outside from the dinner hall. And dinner was not that good. But during dinner there was more live entertainment with traditional Mexican dancing and tango from Argentina. If you plan to take this cruise, if there is an option to pay to just visit the top deck drinks. Do that! Don't waste your money on food as you will not see a sunset on a sunset dinner cruise.

Not your panga open boat ride where you will get wet. This luxury cruiser has 3 decks, party music (think boomer stanards, with no garbled narrative to interfere) on the open top deck, with all drinks included. I booked the tour in January, the best month for whale watching, as an excursion from my giant cruise ship. All ships anchor offshore, which requires a local boat to transfer you ashore. The Cabrey docked an easy stroll away from where the tenders dropped us off so we didn't have to go through security. I raced to get a comfortable seat on the top deck, and a rum punch was thrust into my hand as soon as I sat. Beer and non-alcoholic drinks were also available at the bar. Fresh chips and salsa was also provided. We spent ample time ogling the arch before heading to open waters for the whale watching portion. Numerous whales breached, fluked, and skimmed the surface, providing plenty of photo ops for all aboard with ample deck space to roam from side to side, as opposed to fixed seating. A two hour tour, it was well worth it. Ample time to wander off the secure dock and into Cabo's shopping zone upon our return, but I jumped in line to get the tender back to the ship.

Great sunset cruise that included a buffet of chicken and steak fajitas and an open bar. I do advise purchasing this tour through the website themselves and not a third party because on the website I believe it was only $60 a person and I've seen it more expensive through a third party vendor. I do advise you to get there early to check in the line and get very long and they want you to stop and take photos that they can sell towards the end of the cruise as well. Since our trip was November, once a sign went down I definitely advise you to have a sweater or a jacket. If you're a person that tends to be cold like myself and I was prepared, I definitely recommend comfortable shoes as well. The boat gets a little unsteady so you don't want to have any accidents or any slip and falls while you're on vacation. The food was amazing. Authentic guacamole sour cream fajitas all you can eat even down to the dessert. That was yummy too. If you arrive early then you pretty much have a better option for where your seat will be located. I didn't want to be on the top level where the music was playing and everybody dancing drunk. I didn't want that so we actually sat in the back on the second level and it was perfect. We were the first ones to see the arch cuz the back of the boat actually hits the arch first. We got all our pictures that people are actually running to the back or we were. But we kind of positioned myself where we're in a friend and nobody could really get in front of us unless they really maneuver themselves. And I asked them to move after they were blocking my view but. It was a lovely cruise. I got phenomenal pictures and everybody was so nice to help. My husband and I take our photos

I went on the sunset dinner cruise to see the Arch and it was a blast. The boat is huge, multiple levels and lots of room to relax without feeling turbulence. There was a $2 per person port fee when we get on the boat, but otherwise the excursion was only $85 per person. That included unlimited drinks like pina colada & margaritas and a fajita dinner! All of the staff was very friendly and everyone on the boat was fun to talk with! They played upbeat music the whole time and we got very close to the arch. Everything was so beautiful at sunset! They took pictures of you entering the boat and in front of the arch that you could buy (optional). Very fun experience and a great way to see the famous arch!

Did the harbor cruise. Staff was nice. They had some good food. Buffet-style (which I don't like), but otherwise some nice dishes. A pleasant cruise that went by El Arco, and the beaches, and the mega-yachts. Watched sunset. Nothing fancy, but a very nice time.

We are residents of cabo, part time. Playing tourist tonight. Honestly, getting the premium dinner package is extremely worth the money! One of the best meals we have enjoyed in Cabo in the past 22 years! Roasted is our to-go-always-consistently-good places. I would say. This cruise was another for us! Highly recommend! Even with crazy waves, the band was great, the dinner was FABULOUS!

We purchased tickets for the sunset cruise while walking through San Jose Del Cabo. We paid $70 per person with an added $2 port fee once you board the boat. The tour includes a trip to the popular spots like El Arco, Land's End, the Sea Lion Colony, Lover's Beach and the pirate's cave. We left the port at 5:00 pm for about a 2-3 hour cruise. Once on board the large luxury ship we headed straight for the top deck where they have a live band and bar. The bar was busy serving up unlimited free drinks, "with tips of course" and the service was great. The sunset cruise comes with a fajita dinner but we did not eat. Everything was perfect. The views were amazing. The music and dancing was fun and the drinks were flowing. The Caborey is a must and well worth the price. We will book again during our next trip to Cabo for sure.

This was a really fun evening. You get all you can drink, a buffet of basic Mexican food, live music and dancing, and perfect views of the arch at sunset. We went on a Monday and go great seats on the second floor in the front of the boat. You want to get a seat outside quickly, the best seats are second floor front. The service was great. They constantly brought us drinks and unlike some boat tours, they had a full bar. We really liked the Pina colada and mojito, but they also did basic whiskey and coke or vodka soda along with tequila shots. The food is served inside on the second floor and is a basic clean Mexican fajitas ( chicken and beef) with all the sides like guac, salad, beans , rice etc. Do not expect great food but it was always stocked warm and looked fresh. Be aware that the boat goes on the Pacific side of the arch and the water gets choppy so if you get sea sick beware! The evening ends with a live band on the top deck playing American classic rock ( sweet home Alabama etc) and the dj will play a mix of classic dance songs like stayin' alive and some fun Mexican music. Really fun to see everyone dancing as the night ends. Really fun but expect simple. Service was really good, food was basic but fresh and dancing under the stars was so fun!

Every trip to Cabo will include a sunset cruise because that's just the best way to experience the unparalleled views of the Sea of Cortez! Cabo Rey was a truly amazing experience ! We purchased tickets online before we left California! They were a great deal! On day of cruises we arrived 45 minutes before departure! They took pictures of us as we checked in and we went to the upper deck for drinks and an amazing DJ! Let me tell you the party started even before the boat sailed! We had Palomas and beers and the waiters made sure you were never without a libation! We left at 6pm and all the boats headed out to sea in a convoy ! It was a beautiful sunny day and the views were perfect if the deep blue sea! We stopped at the Arch and Lovers Beach then headed to the Pacific side to watch a beautiful sunset . Afterwards we went to the lower deck and had a Mexican Fajita dinner . Hubby had beef fajitas and I had chicken fajitas. Checked was way better lol! Highly recommend doing this cruise if you're in Cabo

The only reason I give 1 star is because the food was pretty good. I would say 1.5 stars. This cruise is unnecessarily longgggg. And it's not a cruise because you literally sail out for about 20 minutes and the rest of the time they anchor the boat in the middle of the ocean. Number 1, it's dark so we can't see anything. Number 2, why not create an actual cruise route? The DJ was THE WORSE. "A variety of music" is very inaccurate. I waste of money.

We went on the Cabo Rey dinner cruise. Looking forward to enjoying and evening of dinner, drinks, music and beautiful scenery. We'll our dinner cruise turned into a nightmare. Short story- we traveled too far out , boat broke after fighting high winds, and needed a coast guard rescue. One crew member said the captain screwed up and took us out too far with bad weather approaching. After riding out the rescue for hours while moving with furniture with life jacket on, we arrived back in the bay at 5AM!! So many of us were sea sick and overwhelmed from the experience. Yes, we received a refund but it ruined the rest of our vacation and Amstar refused to refund any of our long awaited vacation since they didn't "own" the cruise excursion. Very disappointed. The management of Amstar (Kevin in Cabo) said "we'l a refund or partial refund from us WONT be happening". Here is a voucher for transportation upgrade on your next travel to Cabo. Be aware of risks when planning excursions.

I'm so glad I upgraded to the premier dinner. The show was amazing, food was absolutely delicious . Unfortunately the drinks almost seemed like they had no alcohol at all......but apart from that I loved everything about the sunset cruise. Cabo Arch was well worth seeing.

Went on the Caborey for whale watch tour and was not disappointed! They departed from port on time after serving a delicious breakfast, coffee and drinks. The commentary was very informative as we passed lovers beach, sea lions and El Arco. The ship was pretty fast and very large so everyone had a great view. we must have seen at least 20 grey whales with their babies breeching, tail slapping and flipper waving. At times there were d 5 whales breaching at once! Highly recommend this tour!

Great sunset cruise! The service was awesome. I loved the music, and the drinks were great.

They serve dog food !!! It's so bad ... they only hava 3 kind of alcohol , no one speaks English, no ac !!! Rude staff , we paid more than $100 each and we're regretting every second of it , don't waist your money , this trip should be $20 max

Top Notch! Everything was wonderful! The wait staff were very attentive, the food was fantastic, pay the extra few bucks for the "Premium" dinner, it's well worth it. The drinks that are included are good, not watered down. We had a great time and will definitely be back!

We got free tickets for the sunset dinner cruise during our last night in Cabo. I was initially excited to get a close up of the arch and the views did not disappoint! That was the only highlight, the boat was incredibly rocky- several people were seasick and the food and drinks were low quality. The tickets include and open bar but the drinks were watered down. Overall this wouldn't have been worth the full price tickets.

We scheduled a sunset dinner cruise for Saturday Oct 6, 2018 to El Arco (the Arch) so it was a lazy day until time to leave. Boarding was scheduled for 5:30pm but we left early about 3:00pm to have some time to go to the market by the marina. We arrived at the marina and got our bearings and stature exploring. The market was focused toward tourist souvenirs, we had hoped it might be a bit more. We bought a couple of tee shirts and roamed around some. Having now about 45 minutes before boarding we went to small cafe near the checkin gate to sit and have a Pepsi. Boarding time arrived and we proceeded through the checkin process. Of course on the way was the obligatory photo. Upon getting on the boat there was a $2 port fee that was not included in the ticket, strange, seems like that could be part of the ticket. We showed our ticket and we were directed to go down one level. Turns out this was the formal dining room. Our waiter showed us to our table and explained the dinner process, then invited us to go to the top deck were there was a bar and entertainment. We had margaritas and listened to the band while the ship got under way. It was actually a short ride to where the arch is and the captain made several slow passes past the arch so everyone could see. It is a quite impressive natural sight. One of the crew explained to us that every 3-4 years the sand would fill in under the arch to make a beach and people could actually walk on it. You could see by the wave action that the sand was being pushed up. After passing by the arch the caption took us around the point into less protected water and the swells were really rocking the boat. Brought back memories of my Navy days sailing around the Cape Hatteras area. We returned back to the inlet area where it was calmer and went below deck for dinner. Arriving at our table we greeted with a beautiful simple salad for each of us. It consisted of some pickled apples with arugula and a nice fruity dressing. As we were finishing the salad our waiter brought our entrees. The presentation for each was very well done. Becky had a fillet minion and I had nice portion of sea bass fillet. Both came with real mashed potatoes and spaghetti style carrots and squash. Everything was cooked just right, beef medium rare, fish tender, potatoes with some lumps and the veggies were al denti. Dessert was a plate of a small size (just right) cream puff and chocolate cake with mousse icing. Was an excellent dinner. After dinner there was live entertainer of traditional Mexican dance and singing. It was an awesome evening to celebrate our 25th anniversary.

OMG! This was one of the highlights of our vacay in San Jose del Cabo. We had so much fun!!! Even thinking about it now makes my heart beat fast. Lol. The buffet food is not exceptional though but when you're in a boat trip you hardly want to eat a lot anyway because you can get sea sick. Mind you, I never get sea sick but I am always cautious about filling my stomach. I just dont want to be over stuffed. That's all. I enjoyed the snorkeling part. They gave us flippers and life vest to wear. While we were in the water, one of the staff tossed us some bread. I thought the guy was handing us some snacks so I shouted "Thank you!!!". I told my friend "Aw, that was so sweet of him. But the bread is wet though". My friend then said "It's not for us. It's for the fishes, you silly!" Then I realized oh yeah why did I ever think that. Awkward moment really! Anyway, I wanted to go kayaking but my friend got sea sick so we had to go back to the boat prematurely. Our trip was concluded by some entertainment with audience participation (which was hilarious!) And then dancing!!! Ah, it was so much fun really! The entire staff were awesome! By the way, the reason we chose CaboRey was that they have bigger boat compared to the others. I think that's something one should consider. Thank you CaboRey for an unforgettable experience!

Went on the CaboRey sunset cruise , fine dining, Thursday Oct 25! Arrived as told at 515 pm. They opened the doors to the cruise and took souvenir photos for your group upon boarding. There is a $2 port fee per person upon entry. We were lucky enough that the Bissbee's fishing tournament was going on and the fishing boats were coming in during the 45 min loading time. Very neat to see! Open bar, live music on the upper deck. 2 floors of dining. During the cruise we took off along the coast and then to the arch for a perfect sunset and beautiful photo opportunities. Once the sun set, dinner began and was amazing. The presentation was great. The service was amazing. And after dinner there was a show including salsa and dancing, Singing and other cool acts! 3 hours total. And worth it. Loved it! Only felt the boat moving a little during dinner. Would go again when I visit!

My husband and I really enjoyed the cruise. We went during sunset hour so it wasn't as hot. We took beautiful pictures with the Arch in the background. The boat actually stops in front of the Arch to allow everyone to take pictures. The Mexican buffet was okay. The staff were very attentive and organized. I will definitely take this cruise again.

Very boring attempt at a sunset cruise. If you are under 70 I do not recommend going. The drinks have no liquor in them and if you want actual booze you have to pay extra. They kept us an hour longer than we were supposed to be on the boat. Pretty much torture.

Is there a zero rating?  This is an absolute no for me.  The food was good and the service was great.  This 2 hour sunset cruise turned into a Sunset sunrise cruise.  Ten of the twelve hours were a nightmare.  Starting from the rocking side to side and the furniture sliding around and the music playing like on titanic. It was apparent the crew did not have training for emergencies.  They tried to ease fears, however, it was not helpful.  They passed bags for everyone who was puking from the rocking boat.  They offered water and puke bags.  They assisted people getting to the bathrooms as everyone slid across the floor.  They could not provide, would not and did not provide updates through this misery.  Through the boat rocking and swaying, the motor went out on the boat.  We had to be rescued.  Two small boats were sent to pull us into the marina.  Unsuccessfully the plan changed to rescue.  The initial rescue was one boat riding a wave going up while the other boat rode the wave going down.  This was absolutely dangerous having to jump from boat to boat.  This was one of the scariest dinner cruises I have been on in my life.  Being handed a life vest and absolutely no information or updates was a nightmare. We finally got off the rescue boat about 6 am.  Safety drills and effective communication would be recommended for this crew.  Nonetheless,  you can't even show me a gravy boat after this nightmare.

So much fun!! Great music & tour of Cabo by water. The mojitos were . Dinner was also amazing. Everyone had steak & shrimp. The sauces on each were mouth watering. Salad before dinner was great & dessert was average. The show after dinner was very good & they involved the audience. Cabo Rey is a must when visiting Cabo!

Went on the Cabo Rey for the sunset cruise. Been on it a couple of times over 5 years and this year (July 2018) was a huge disappointment. We sat in the marina by mango deck with no view of the sunset. The inside food hall was playing one set of music, out on the vip deck was different music. The band on top played less than 30 minutes this time for over a 2 hour cruise. The food was downgraded. The rice no longer has shrimp. The chicken and beef fajitas seem to be pre-made days earlier with a water like sauce. Seriously super disappointing.

This was our third snorkel trip with Cabo Rey. They have changed a few things since last year but we understand the reasons why. First the open bar starts after the snorkeling excursion. Actually if you plan on staying on the boat and not getting in the water, they will allow you to start to drink as soon as the snorkeling begins. Otherwise they do serve non alcoholic drinks or virgin drinks the whole trip until open bar. The reason for this is because it is a fairly dangerous water activity if you have been drinking. Apparently there was an incident where some customers had drank quite a bit on the cruise before getting to the snorkel spot. My guess is they had started drinking way before they boarded the boat. Once out at the snorkel location there was an accident with someone who had been drinking and was in the water snorkeling. Cabo Rey was held responsible since they serve alcoholic drinks before the water activity. To protect themselves from future incidents like this one they now only have open bar after the snorkeling. Totally makes sense after seeing drunk person after drunk person on the marina regularly. Cabo is a heavy drinking location and many people tend to overindulge while in Cabo. So we were a little bummed when we boarded this trip but after seeing some people in action we totally understand and think it's a great idea. They do however need to update their sales ad to clarify this for potential clients so they are aware before they board. Second change the snorkel spot was different than last year. We went out on Wednesday and the spot seemed a bit choppy and the water was not as clear as the true Chileno bay spot. So I was a bit disappointed that day. We also went out on Friday with them and that same spot was much better on Friday. Water was calmer and clear. So I guess this has to do with weather and not Cabo Rey. Overall the crew is awesome! The food is great and we will always book with them. Food consist of Rice, Beans, fajita chicken, a vegetarian option with squash, tortillas, rolled quesadillas or we call them quesaditas( our fav), fresh chips, pico de gallo, spicy salsa, sliced varieties of fruit with Tajin. The breakfast part of it was just some pastries and coffee which we never touch because we usually eat breakfast at the hotel. So no biggie. We see other snorkel cruises go out on crowded little boats and think that's a bit too tight and uncomfortable. This week (2/14/18 & 2/16/18) we had roughly 60 other people on board both trips. The boat is huge with a 300 person capacity, so there was plenty of space to sprawl out and relax. Can't forget the whale watching. They have morning whale watching tours and they will also swing wide on the snorkel trip to see whales which is an added bonus. Today we got up close to a pair of mating whales. They were jumping and splashing. Super cool to see. We will definitely use Cabo Rey again when we come back. Best bang for your buck. Open bar, free meal for lunch, whale watching, and snorkeling. Can't beat that for the price.

My husband and I really enjoyed the dinner cruise. It was a relaxing time on a boat with beautiful views at sunset. The staff was great and everything was well organized. I read several bad reviews regarding the food, but I think that was regarding the mexican buffet (not the premium). I have to say our food was very good. Red wine not so great and mixed drinks that were included a little watered down, but you can always pay for premium. The entertainment was just that- entertaining for an hour after dinner. If you are planning to go I would definitely do the premium food. Shrimp and fettuccine alfredo were excellent.

For $50 a person it was just ok. The view was the only thing that made it worth it. Because the fajita buffet dinner was trash.

I would NOT recommend doing business with this company. I know it's long but it's important to read the whole review. During our stay in Cabo at the end of June my family and I went to eat at a place called Mark's Grill in downtown San Jose Del Cabo. (See my original Yelp review for Marks's grill) A man named Jorge Rios is a seller for Caborey. Apparently from what Caborey continues to tell me on the phone, ANYONE can sell for Caborey but they don't necessarily work for the company. So he presented us with a sunset dinner tour of the arc while we ate dinner. See receipt posted. Bad weather caused the port to close and our boat tour was cancelled for Monday June 28th 2021. That was no problem. Then Jorge was apparently given our refund from the Caborey company, hence where the problems started. Jorge told us he would bring us our money that night and then did not show. The next day he showed up with only a small portion of the refund claiming he would get the rest and come back to our resort to deliver it. My husband and I were contacting Jorge several times while we were still in Mexico trying to find out when Jorge would deliver the rest of our money. He even claimed he would give us a ride to the airport the morning we were leaving, never showed. Upon returning home we called Caborey and spoke to Alma. Alma told us since they gave the refund to Jorge we needed to contact Jorge and it was out of their hands. When we told her he blocked our phone calls she said "well call him on what's app" I don't have what's app. So Alma called him and talked to him for us while we held on. He still said he would get us the refund. Fast forward to present 8/20/21 and Jorge still dodges our measures to contact him. I called Caborey again and spoke to Alma who of course did not remember our initial conversation and again told me to contact Jorge because it was out of their hands since they gave him the refund. I asked to speak to a manager of Caborey because I want to escalate the issue past her. She said the managers name is Julio and took down my number because he was not there. I told Alma I will be calling back if I don't hear anything which I doubt I will, since no one seems to care that I did not receive my refund. I tried to explain to Alma it reflects poorly on the Caborey company to continue to do business with people like Jorge Rios and makes me never want to do business with them again. I hope that people will read this and take caution when doing business with them so they do not get swindled out of their money. I am awaiting anything from Jorge or Julio at this point and will give updates if there are any.

Sunset cruise 2hr for $68+ $2 port fee. Then they came around and asked for money for the crew. Food was ok not much entertainment, no MC or DJ

First off, this is not a romantic sunset cruise. After coming aboard, we were led to the top deck where speakers blared metal. I'm a big Metallica fan but not on a "romantic" sunset cruise with my new wife. For dinner we chose the premium lobster meal. The ad we were given said there was a 10 dollar per person upcharge for lobster. Once on the boat, they charged us 12 bucks each. It's just four bucks, but after a week of being nickel and dimed everywhere we went, it stood out. The meal began with stale rolls but a very good dinner salad. Then came two lobster tails with a side of mashed potatoes. The potatoes were good but the lobster was mealy with almost no typical lobster texture. That should have been a clue. We finished dinner at 8pm and by 3am I was sick from poisoning. I don't know if it's food poisoning or shell fish poisoning but two days later, I'm still sick. Finally, the band and entertainers were talented. They were easily the best part of the evening.

Awesome service! Alfredo was the best. From the time we boarded the boat until the end he was on the spot with service, humor and a smile. The Mexican Buffet was great also....

I would rate this a 0 if I could. We were offered this excursion for our time on our trip to Cabo. We paid extra money to have the luxury dinner. We showed up and handed them our receipt, they told us to go to the level serving the Mexican buffet. We returned and explained that we paid extra for the luxury dinner. They could not find our receipt and told us that either way we would have to pay another $44 each to upgrade for something we had already paid for. We were both getting quite upset so I asked my boyfriend to please go get me a drink and the manager would not even let him go to get a drink, as if we were trying to steal something. They finally found the receipt but refused to honor what we had paid for and at this point I really wanted no part of this business or anything they had to offer. This is not the way you treat the people that come to support your country. Word of mouth can make you or break you..please spend your money and time elsewhere.

This was one of the worst experiences ever. We did the Sunset Cruise. They totally oversold it so we never got to eat downstairs with everyone. We had to bring our cold food upstairs to the top deck with the wind blowing and the food went everywhere! Speaking of the food, it's served buffet style, but very portioned. Eat before you go. Thankful we did. The drinks were so weak we stopped ordering. They were full of sugar mixes and no alcohol. Tried switching to beer but they were serving warm cans of beer. Seriously? They had the nerve to ask for tips and the end and we refused. Pretty frustrated at having wasted 2.5 hours of my life I won't get back. The top deck with so packed you just couldn't be comfortable and the music was way too LOUD. We couldn't have a conversation or hear each other unless the band stopped playing. Oh, and if you're younger than 45, you're gonna be bored out of your mind!! Not romantic. Not fun. Spend your money elsewhere. 72$usd can buy you a pretty good meal somewhere else.

Great views Along with great entertainment! They cater to the whole family. Highly recommend this cruise

Probably the worst excursion ever!! Was sold as a snorkeling trip with breakfast and lunch as well as open bar. Starting with breakfast, the food ran out within minutes of boarding. Open bar; no senior, not until after you snorkel!?!?!? What?? When it did open it wasn't worth the effort as the beer was warm and the few drinks were so sweet that you had diabetes after the first sip!! Finally the snorkeling. It was supposed to be a "private" trip but I guess the 8 other excursions didn't get the memo. On top of that, their idea of snorkeling was to swim behind the boat with poorly fitted equipment and let some fat guy throw bread at your head!! I was not to pleased the first time he hit me and the second time came with a stern warning regarding crew safety if he hit me again. Thankfully for him he understood my English. Next time go the less expensive route on a smaller boat and have the time of your life like I did the last time. Certainly DO MOT DO THIS ONE!!

I have no complaints. The sunset dinner cruise was more than what I expected. They take a photo the cruise with the ship in the background. I paid $28 usd for two pictures with the us and the ship and one with the lands end. The dinner was good, buffet style. On the 3 level there was a live band that played good music. A little bit of everything.. something oldies, American, and Spanish music. Open bar with great service. I believe the cost is $85 per person but you can get it cheaper if you book through one of the street vendors. Worth every penny and would recommend

We went on the snorkeling excursion. The boat and scenery were nice. We didn't snorkel due to the small jelly fish everywhere. We did kayak and paddle board. The meal was the worst. Bland chicken and rice with steamed vegetables. They advertised fajitas. Very disappointed.

On August 13th my family went out for snorkeling on the Cabo Rey. My husband could not snorkel so he was able to intermittently use a kayak. (There are 2-3 kayaks and 3-4 paddle boards on board. They put these out after the swimmers go out.) My daughters and I snorkeled for a while and then got it a fairly fast moving line to grab a paddle board. I agree with other reviewers and say its not the best snorkeling, but we saw plenty of fish. The water was murky probably due to wave action. The crew did feed the fish a few times to get them near us. There is a 'diving board' off the back that many people loved using. As far as food goes, it was better than I every expected. Coffee, a pastry which was yummy, and muffins were served as we went boarded and went out. We thought the lunch was good, ie. beans, rice, chicken fajitas, cheese tortillas, fruit, and something else. It was a big buffet style lunch. The bar had a frozen drink (pina coladas?), beer and other mixed drinks. If you are wanting a Coke, bring one with you. The bar had mainly juice and basic mixers. I could not have been happier with the staff. They were hard working, friendly, and helpful. (Bathrooms were cleaned frequently.) I would be there at or before check in (10:30). They take photos which slows down the boarding process. We found a mid deck inside table, which was great for us. (The upper deck is in the full sun.) Remember to bring sunscreen, towels and a change of clothes unless you do not mind a damp bathing suit. If I ever go again I will bring my cheap flip flops to use as you get your gear and wait to snorkel. It is a process that they have mastered after doing this with big groups. When you are on the water, all your 'stuff' is left in the cabin. The crew watches out for it, but be cautious about what you bring to the boat, since they are no lockers etc. This is a big boat with lots of tourists on board. Our boat was probably less crowded since it was not high season.

Only reason I gave a 4 instead of 5 star was the quality of the filet. Everything else was awesome. The entertainment on the rooftop was a quality band and the Mexican show downstairs was very good and exciting. All food was great except for the steak.

Highly recommended by the concierge at Hacienda Beach Club. Arrived at main dock only To be met by a representative saying because of the Mexican Federal elections TOMORROW, they could not serve alcohol tonight..???. It was our last night and had t seen the arch up close yet and no time to rebook something else. So we reluctantly boarded the ship and had to pay an additional $2 USD per head to board. This was on top of the $132 per person cost. Visually this cruise is all it's supposed to be. Then came dinner....think of the worse wedding food you've ever eaten-and then this would be worse than that. We had filet and shrimp because they were out of Lobster supposedly when we booked. The shrimp were ok. Filet was the size of a normal one but only 1/2" thick-and smothered in a highly salted brown gravy. My guess this was to hide the color of my grey "medium rare" piece of meat. My wife couldn't even cut hers with the knife provided. They quickly got a steak knife. Too late. Evening was a total bust. 1 star for the sightseeing and band on board. Food-zero!

I had a very nice time on Caborey. For those who are not really comfortable on the water, this vessel felt very stable. The crew was friendly and knowledgeable as well. I'm thinking this is a good option for our upcoming group trip in September. There is plenty of room on the boat and being multi level you don't feel cramped or crowded. It's a very nice and relaxing tour. This was a morning breakfast and whale watching tour.

Music was obnoxiously "LOUD", the food options were mediocre, and on a scale of 1 to 10 in cleanliness, I give them a 3. I wouldn't go back myself or recommend any personal friend of mine to go either! Save your money and do your research.
