Our verdict
This tour fits a typical Cabo San Lucas call (8:00 am–3:30 pm). It runs 2 h; ashore by 8:45 am, you can start by 9:00 am and be back at the gangway around 11:15 am — 2 h 45 min to spare on top of a 1 h safety margin.
Rule of thumb: it keeps the safety margin as long as all aboard is 12:45 pm or later. Even a short 7:00 am–2:00 pm call works.
We don't have a verified start point for this tour yet, so we assume 15 min each way from the pier — the typical ride in Cabo San Lucas. Check the meeting point on the booking page.
Among the 397 Cabo San Lucas shore excursions we track, this is one of the shorter ones (the median runs 2 h 45 min); 86% of them fit a typical call. Cabo San Lucas is a tender port: we add 45 minutes to get ashore and keep you back 30 minutes before all aboard for the last tender.
