Not to be missed
As part of a group that had the pleasure of taking a private excursion on the La Isla Catamaran, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to Diego, Maria, and Jeremy for such a wonderful experience. Everything about the day was seamless—from the smooth sailing to the well-organized snorkeling opportunity, which our group thoroughly enjoyed. The food was served promptly and was both fresh and delicious, adding to the overall experience. A special thank you to Maria for capturing such beautiful photos throughout the excursion. These are memories we will truly cherish for years to come. Our entire group highly recommends this tour and would not hesitate to book again in the future.

From the snorkeling and sailing to the food and atmosphere on board, it’s wonderful to know every part of the day came together so smoothly for your group. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with the crew. Capturing unforgettable moments out on the water is what it’s all about, and we’re so happy those memories will stay with you for years to come. We would love to welcome your group back again on your next visit to Cabo.

BEST EXPERIENCE!
We had an absolutely incredible experience on this private catamaran—easily the best boating experience we’ve ever had. The staff was professional, friendly, and truly went above and beyond to make our day special. The boat itself was spotless and very well maintained, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The food was amazing—far better than we expected—and everything was thoughtfully prepared. One detail that really stood out was the seamless hotel pickup and drop-off arrangements. It made the entire experience stress-free from start to finish. If you’re considering a private catamaran excursion, I can’t recommend this enough. It was worth every minute!
Response from the operator: Hello Tania, This is exactly the kind of experience we aim to deliver from start to finish. A smooth pickup, a spotless boat, great food, and a crew that genuinely takes care of everything without missing a beat. We are glad it stands out as your best boating experience. That is not something we take lightly. We will make sure the whole team sees this. Next time you are back in Cabo, we will be ready to make it even better. Thank you!

Great time!
Excellent experience! Lots of neat opportunities in the three hour ride and great food. We went to El Arco, had successful whale watch, and snorkelled/paddle boarded. Compared to the smaller watercraft and larger boats with dozens of people, we felt like we had a great experience on the water.
Response from the operator: Hello Greg, Thank you for the great review. We’re very happy to hear you had such a well-rounded experience out on the water, from visiting El Arco to whale watching and enjoying time snorkeling and paddle boarding. It’s great to know you appreciated the balance of comfort and exclusivity on board. That more private, relaxed atmosphere is exactly what we aim to deliver, along with great food and seamless service throughout. We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you back the next time you’re in Cabo for another memorable day at sea.

The Best Thing to Do in Cabo!
Cabo was one of our stops on our cruise and we booked a 4 hour catamaran trip ahead of time. Everything that happened on the catamaran trip exceeded my expectations! Whales, snorkeling, sights, music, dancing, fajitas, and non-stop fun. We had a group of 15, half the group were kids, and they had the best time. The crew did everything possible to make the excursion exactly what we wanted. The photos captured by our private photographer were stunning as well! I’d highly recommend Papillon to anyone looking to elevate their Cabo experience.
Response from the operator: Hello, Thank you for such an incredible review. We’re truly happy to hear that your catamaran experience exceeded expectations in every way. From whale sightings and snorkeling to music, dancing, and fresh fajitas, it sounds like the perfect mix of adventure and fun for the whole group. Hosting a group with both adults and kids and making it enjoyable for everyone is something our crew takes great pride in, so it’s wonderful to know everyone had such a great time. And those onboard photos always end up being the cherry on top. We really appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome you back the next time Cabo is on your itinerary for another unforgettable day on the water.

We love Papillon!
We had an absolutely amazing time with Papillon Boats in Cabo! From start to finish, the experience was top-notch, and a huge part of that was our incredible host, Jesus. He was welcoming, fun, and made sure everyone was having a great time the entire trip. Shoutout to Alvaro and Gael — the whole crew was awesome to hang out with and really kept the vibes high. They were attentive, upbeat, and made the experience feel more like spending the day with friends than being on a tour. The food and drinks were delicious and incredibly fresh, which really exceeded our expectations. Everything was prepared perfectly and kept flowing the whole time. We did the 47ft Party Catamaran for 15 people and it could have comfortably fit more. If you’re looking for a boat experience in Cabo (fairly priced) with great energy, amazing staff, and fantastic food and drinks, Papillon Boats is the way to go. We would 100% do this again!
Response from the operator: Hello Caitlyn, Thank you for such an incredible review! We’re beyond happy to hear your experience felt top-notch from start to finish, that’s exactly the standard we aim for every single charter. There’s nothing better than knowing the energy stayed high, the service felt welcoming and fun, and the day felt more like celebrating with friends than simply being on a tour. Our crew takes pride in creating that effortless, upbeat atmosphere while keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes. And we couldn’t agree more, great music, fresh food, well-crafted drinks, and plenty of space on the 47ft Party Catamaran make for a pretty perfect Cabo day. It truly means a lot that you found the experience fairly priced and worth doing again. We’ll be ready whenever you’re back for round two on the water.

Why this scores 77
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cabo San Lucas All-Inclusive Private Catamaran Snorkeling Cruise: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cabo San Lucas.
How much does Cabo San Lucas All-Inclusive Private Catamaran Snorkeling Cruise cost?
+
Prices start at $2200 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cabo San Lucas usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cabo San Lucas All-Inclusive Private Catamaran Snorkeling Cruise take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cabo San Lucas is not rushed.
Is Cabo San Lucas All-Inclusive Private Catamaran Snorkeling Cruise worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 222 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cabo San Lucas, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cabo San Lucas All-Inclusive Private Catamaran Snorkeling Cruise?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Cabo San Lucas All-Inclusive Private Catamaran Snorkeling Cruise suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cabo San Lucas All-Inclusive Private Catamaran Snorkeling Cruise?
+
Around 78 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cabo San Lucas can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cabo San Lucas and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cabo San Lucas All-Inclusive Private Catamaran Snorkeling Cruise start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cabo San Lucas within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cabo San Lucas?
+
On Outty we rank every Cabo San Lucas experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cabo Desert Off-Road & Beach Horseback Combo and Tequila Tasting, Humpback Whale Watching Tour in Cabo San Lucas, Cabo All-Inclusive Private Beach Club with Open Bar and Buffet. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cabo San Lucas?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cabo San Lucas?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
