it was an awesome tour!!! We were especially amazed by our guide and captain -- they are super informative and super patient and opened our eyes for the wildlife in Monterey Bay! We hope more friends and more people could see this review, and have the opportunity to get to know how amazing they are and join the tour!

The team at Monterey bay Eco Tours was outstanding in their depth of knowledge and approachability. The all electric boat was delightfully stable and whisper-quiet. We had no trouble hearing every bit of the narration and conservation. This was a unique and delightful experience that I will repeat and recommend to all my friends.
