Fantastic day out with Tom from Anaheim Tour Company. Prompt pick-up from our hotel once again and a really interesting ride to the 3 beaches with lots of information on the local area and history from Tom. He arranged our whale watching tickets and made sure we knew where to go as well as making great recommendations for food. We didn’t see any whales but 100s of dolphins and baby dolphins. After the tour we were able to get dropped off at our choice of restaurant instead of our hotel. Anaheim Tour Company make trips a fun and stress-free experience and we strongly recommend them. However we would recommend booking direct as we paid over the odds reserving via third party before we knew we could book through their website.

Very good tour. Although we didn't see any whales we saw (MANY) bottle nosed dolphins and sea lions. Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The beach areas we went to were great.
Response from Host , Apr 2022
We've often thought the Whale watching excursion should be called "an Ocean Cruise with a chance of Whales"... fortunately, there are always dolphin and sea lions and being on a boat for a couple of hours on the beautiful blue pacific is a great way to break up the time at 3 amazing beaches!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your review and we hope you'll visit again, soon!
Great Experience and Guide was amazing

A Rare Encounter

The tour company said they hadn't been able to see whales for about 2 weeks when we first boarded, which worried us. To start off we sea lions napping on a bout. We then joined a large pod of dolphins who swam beside the boat and jumped out of the water. Then we saw 2 Bryde's whales, which normally don't come up to the West Coast US because the water is too cold so they were a very rare find. There were 2 males in an apparent courtship, jumping from the water, trying to impress a female we could not see. Our guides told us that they have never seen anything like it before. At the end of the tour, they offered professional pictures which was great because I was so distracted by the whales that I forgot to take photos. Such a great tour!

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.
