The music, the view, the meal, and the crew are amazing! It is a MUST when we have guests visit. However, we learned to take our dinner break when the band goes on break. We use to have dinner at the beginning of the cruise, and we would miss the band. I was surprised how little the band played during the 3-hour cruise. Kinda Crazy. 5 STARS!!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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
Overall a good experience. Pros: *Extremely attentive and friendly staff *Spectacular views of the Arch/Lands End *Unlimited alcoholic beverages * Clean bathrooms * Large, stable boat (you barely feel the waves, and the water is generally calm) Note: There is an additional $2 USD port fee on top of the excursion price. They offer several tiers ranging from $95 to $135 USD, and the $95 option is perfectly sufficient. Also be sure your Uber or taxi drops you at the correct pier/local--Gali. Cons: *Food is decent but they ran low on several items *The 2.5-hour tour includes about 45 minutes waiting near the dock on the return read more

Nice sunset cruise with vip seating. The lower vip deck offered a nice show and a good meal with a decent Méxican wine selection. The duration was a bit short but they offered air conditioning deck for vip guests only. Definitely worth a try! read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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! read more

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! read more
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! read more

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more
