    Lousy service and staff

    The staff is quite derogatory and with bad attitude, the whole group took photo in the arch which is the main point of doing the tour my partner and I did not do it as the photographer did not allow it to do it and gave the order to return , he specifically paid more attention with a woman of the group leaving the rest in second place, I do not recommend that they take this tour is boring people are not trained to give the service are poorly educated people in the end I lost my time and money. I won't do it again

    Response from the operator: Agradecemos que nos hayas compartido tus comentarios, ya que nos ayudan a identificar áreas en las que debemos mejorar. Queremos pedirte disculpas por la actitud del personal y la falta de atención que mencionas, ya que esto no refleja los estándares de servicio que buscamos ofrecer. Tomaremos en cuenta tu retroalimentación para garantizar que situaciones como esta no se repitan en el futuro. Lamentamos que no hayas disfrutado el tour y esperamos que podamos tener la oportunidad de mejorar tu experiencia en otra ocasión. De igual manera nos podria enviar mas al respecto al correo info@envatours.com para darle seguimiento. quedamos pendientes a sus comentarios!

    Majestic experience

    The overall experience is magical, climbing into a transparent boat helps the little ones also enjoy the fish watching tour from the floor of the boat. We had good weather when I went, so the photos with the help of photographer Ignacio and Captain Arnold that always placed us at the best angle, made this, a great experience. In addition, they told us the story of every corner we traveled and that is always appreciated.

    Response from the operator: ¡Muchas gracias por compartir tu experiencia! Nos alegra mucho saber que disfrutaste del tour y que tanto el clima como el equipo, incluyendo a Ignacio y Arnold, hicieron de tu aventura algo memorable. Nos encanta saber que los pequeños también pudieron disfrutar del recorrido a bordo del bote transparente. Es un placer compartir las historias y secretos de cada rincón con nuestros visitantes, y estamos felices de que eso haya enriquecido tu experiencia. ¡Esperamos verte de nuevo pronto!

    CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Los Cabos.

    How much does CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch cost?

    +

    Prices start at $83 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Los Cabos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 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 Los Cabos is not rushed.

    Is CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Los Cabos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch?

    +

    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 CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch?

    +

    Around 4 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 Los Cabos 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 Los Cabos and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch 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 Los Cabos 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 Los Cabos?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Los Cabos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cabo Whale Watching: Female Crew, Guaranteed Sightings, Photos, Cabo San Lucas Mexican Cooking Class Experience and Local Markets, Cabo San Lucas Sunset Cruise with Open Bar and Snacks. 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 Los Cabos?

    +

    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 Los Cabos?

    +

    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.

    What is included in CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch?

    +

    Included: Lifejacket; Certified Bilingual Guide; All Fees and Taxes; Round transportation from your hotel; and Tour to the Arch in a transparent boat. Not included: Souvenirs; Food and drinks; Tips; and Photographs. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 27 listed pickup locations in and around Los Cabos. Be ready about 120 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch offered in?

    +

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch?

    +

    Is CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to CityTour in Cabo San Lucas and Transparent Boat Tour to the Arch if the weather is bad?

    +
