My only comment about this trip is do not change a thing about it. Every day was a new adventure, every day we were lucky enough to see something new. I will never forget Baja and its wildlife and I hope to be back soon. Thank you to the entire crew for making this the best trip of my life.

Well-conceived and planned, and we thought every detail of the service, the great food, the expert naturalist advice and everything was excellent and memorable. Thank you!

Art and Celia: Thank you for making our 25th anniversary trip so special and full of natural wonders. It far exceeded our hopes and dreams. We were not only touched by the gray whales but all species of wildlife we were privileged to see. Finally your crew was awesome. They made us feel safe and at home.

The crew were outstanding. From the not so old sea dog Kenny to Joe on his first Whale /Wildlife trip, Cole and Frankie.They spotted whales and dirty dishes with equal enthusiasm. They keep the boat clean tidy and nothing was too much trouble for them. They were all polite, friendly, courteous and above all patient.
Chefs Charles " The Magician " Howell conjured up some amazing meals from the galley ( I've put an extra hole in my belt), ably assisted by Danny who entertained us on the mouth organ (After Teresa persuaded him to perform.)
As Teresa has said, Paul, Marc and briefly Steve Swartz added a huge amount our enjoyment of the trip. Who needs Google with those guys on board. Amazing knowledge, generously shared with good humour.
Capt.Art...I'll keep it brief...it was a privilege. Thanks :)

Hi Celia On behalf of myself and Sue I’d like to thank you, Art, Charles, Rob, Lee, and the rest of the guys for arranging and managing such a great, well planned trip. I’m sure its one that could be repeated over again, and still find something new each time. Its certainly one that will remain in our memories for a long time. Thanks again!

Again Team Searcher really delivered and looked after us, from your friendly and efficient on-shore organisation, the crew's hard work, always with a smile, Paul and Marc's knowledge, to Art whose customer care skills combined with his love and enthusiasm for Baja after so many trips never ceases to amaze me.

Brenda and I truly had a wonderful experience. I still marvel at all we saw. Some of my special moments include sitting on the bridge with Paul and Marc and admiring the cloud formations we saw. Paul and Marc really helped to make the trip special. And Art helped us feel and safe and comfortable throughout.

I just wanted to thank you and all the crew for the most amazing trip, from hummingbirds to blue whales, sand dollars and moments with sea lions. One of the pleasures was everybody's clear delight in all the wildlife which went beyond just being a "job" and to the seamless, smooth organisation that went into our day-to-day activities, not to mention the very obvious care from Art to keep us safe! Thank you so much, it was an honour to be allowed such close contact with all the wildlife.
