One of the most amazing weeks of my life. The experience Just the Wild provided was top notch in every way. From airport pick up to living accommodations, meals, and crew it was beyond what I could have expected. I know wildlife encounters can be hit or miss with any excursion, but there wasn’t a single day of disappointment this trip. Every day I thought it could not get any better, and every day it did!

Far from my first (marine-megafauna) rodeo - I’ve swum w/big critters all over the world for almost 30yrs! High end, dry-suit encased excursions to swim with orcas in the Arctic Ocean in January to a local guy and his skiff down off of Rurutu (“Humpies”). Caine and his org.(Just the Wild) are absolutely top notch - unmatched in my (extensive) experience! His knowledge base (PhD marine biology), his expertise in correctly assessing cetacean behavior (“approachability” - essential for a positive outcome), his unshakable dedication to ensuring a respectful encounter, and his perfect blend of rigor and humor. Just recently returned from my third trip with Just the Wild, and I can state that I wouldn’t even consider going with any other organization! Wolf Brolley

The trip was beyond anything I imagined- being in the water with all the animals was the thrill of a lifetime. The whole operation was extraordinary- planning another trip already.

This was my fourth trip with Just The Wild, and it did not disappoint. We had the great good fortune of experiencing the marine diversity of Baja, one of the most biodiverse areas in the world. Caine and our local guides showed their expertise in wildlife behavior by giving us productive drops in the water with orcas, dolphins, rays and more, all while we watched other operations scare the animals away. Our purpose-built boat gave us many hours on the water, traveling long distances to try to get the best encounters, along with easy entry and exit from the water, key to getting the maximal time with the animals. Accommodations were clean and comfortable with a warm and welcoming staff. 10/10 recommend.
