Not a Whale Watching Tour
Renee_T
, Jun 2022
I have been on many whale watching tours both on the east and west coast. My past experiences have been with extremely knowledgeable guides who were able to educate their guests about whales and were truly actively looking for them on the entire tour. While I understand these are wild, unpredictable creatures, I have never gone on a tour without seeing a whale because the guides knew where and how to find them and actively involved guests, continuously reminding them that they should all be on the lookout for blow holes. This was a nice boat ride. They were more interested in finding dolphins and once we did, spent the bulk of our time with them even though they were feeding and not interested in engaging. Again, I realize this is out of their control, but it was a whale watching tour and they should have moved on to what we paid them to do - look for whales. Extremely disappointing. I brought my daughter and grandson on their first whale watching excursion and it was a serious waste of our time and money. The last one I took was in San Diego - drive further south and check those places out.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
