Lots of fun, super relaxing!! - The chicco crew was awesome! We went on a sunset whalewatching cruise and saw many whales.. they served free drinks the entire cruise. Also a scrumptious plate of guacamole and blue corn chips! Overall a very lovely experience! Only negative thing was the bathrooms were down in the hold below main deck and smelled quite badly.. mostly from lack of air flow down there as they were quite clean.

Sunsets and Whales! - We boarded the Limousine of the Sea in Nuevo and stopped to pick up another group in PV. All the staff from the captain to the cruise director, Isaias, to the servers to the bartender all working together made the cruise fun and enjoyable! The seating on the boat was very comfortable. A few appetizers were served and drinks were served throughout the cruise. We saw lots of whales and learned a lot about them! It never gets old seeing the majestic humpback whales! It was a stunning sunset to end the evening! A definite must do if you love being on the water!

Good experience! - Great experience. The crew were amazing and we saw some whales and dolphins! Everyone got one plate of snacks. The only confusing part is checking in. There were different events/tours happening at the same time. You kinda sit around until 3:30-4. Some staff tell people to wander until 4, so if they aren’t back when the boat arrives, then the rest of the group has to wait. The tour itself was from 4-8ish, and it drops off the first lot of people then the second. Some people were annoyed by this, but we were sitting outside the business waiting for instruction. Overall it was fun, good music and vibes.

A memorable experience - This was a last minute booking and I’m so glad we did it. The ship and staff were amazing. We saw a lot of whales and dolphins. One came right up to the ship. It was incredible. Highly recommend this trip and company. Only feedback… The front desk person was off putting. Instead of helping you navigate where you should be he says “I don’t know who you are” and stares at you. Did this to us and multiple others. Weird! Then he yelled at one guy. The last guy I’d put in the front office to greet people. The rest of the experience more than made up for him though. Just be ready.

So so - The boat left an hour late and then lasted an hour longer than planned, so a 3-hour activity became 5 hours, To long.
