This is truly an epic adventure of a lifetime. Every single person who works for Baja Expeditions and Nautilus were as nice, friendly and as helpful as they could be. From the emails prior to booking to the check in at SeeCreatures to the depart from the airport, they went out of their way to make sure we had the best experience possible and you can tell they are all incredibly passionate about the region and the whales.
The tents are exactly as pictured and quite comfortable, you are literally staying in a glamourous tent right on the lagoon! The stars at night are beautiful. The food is OUTSTANDING. It is amazing what and how much food they served from fresh salads, omelets, soups and three course scrumptious hugely portioned dinners. They clearly have a gourmet chef on staff!
This trip is everything the website promises it to be and so very much more. Yes, you will see whales. You actually will get to see, touch and hear lots and lots of whales. They will be all around you and yes it is true that some do love interacting with humans! There is no way to even begin to explain the overwhelming sense of joy you will experience. Reading the website, your expectations are high but trust me, if you are lucky enough to get to go to San Ignacio with Baja Expeditions and Nautilus then I am certain your experience will likely far exceed what you had envisioned. In fact, this trip will change your soul forever.
