Graciously issued refund
debrose5900, October 2026
My friend and I showed up about 20 minutes early and a staff member was there to greet us. It was a very hot day and my friend started feeling ill. We decided not to go out on the boat even though there was a canopy to keep the sun out because she needed to cool off. I appreciate that the staff member was concerned about my friend and later the company quickly granted the refund I requested through Viator even though it was too late to cancel.
Response from the operator · De Cabo A Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us, 🌊☀️ Felix actually let me know that your friend wasn't feeling well that hot day and that you stayed by her side, and it genuinely worried us. Your health and comfort always come first! I'm glad our team member was there right away to help, and processing your refund was the least we could do so you didn't have to stress about it. We hope your friend is fully recovered and feeling great, and we would love to welcome you both back to Cabo under much cooler and happier weather! 🛥️🌴

Excellent tour option!
J8419NMlaurav, September 2026
I had a great time, the boat is comfortable, you have shade, there were few of us. The route is beautiful, I loved it. Keep in mind that it is a short tour, but I consider that you don't need more. If you like, they can let you off at one of the beaches and then come back for you.
Response from the operator · De Cabo A ¡Muchísimas gracias por tu reseña tan linda, 🌊☀️ Nos alegra muchísimo saber que disfrutaste de la comodidad del barco y que el recorrido por El Arco fue precioso para ti. Tienes toda la razón: nos encanta ofrecer la opción de bajarlos a disfrutar un ratito de la playa y luego pasar por ustedes para que la experiencia sea aún más especial. ¡Fue un placer atenderte y aquí te esperamos con los brazos abiertos cuando vuelvas a Cabo! 🛥️🌴

Hope to see you back in Cabo very soon! 🛥️🌴

Great experience! The...
Daniel_L, September 2026
Great experience! The tour was excellent and all encompassing. You have the option to go on the beach but we chose not to. Might have some difficulty finding it, but they’ll usually text you a heads up of where they’re located, be sure to reach out so you don’t get lost or worse, get talked into paying for a different tour altogether.
Response from the operator · De Cabo A Thank you so much for your fantastic review, Daniel_L! 🌊☀️ We are thrilled to hear that you had such a great experience and enjoyed the tour. We really appreciate your helpful tip about reaching out to us for directions—we always want to make sure our guests get straight to us without any hassle! It was a pleasure having you on board, and we hope to welcome you back to Cabo soon! 🛥️🌴
