Our guide Carlos was so upbeat and full of energy, he made the entire trip. He interacted well with my 3 teenagers and you can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does. Great at giving instructions with detail but not losing your attention.

Fantastic

Andreas was a wonderful tour guide. Very knowledgeable and very friendly. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. Would definitely recommend again.
Incredible experience, wonderful guide!

We brought our two daughters (7 and 11). Neither had ever been kayaking or snorkeling before. Our guide Andres was very knowledgeable, helpful, patient, and very safety conscious. Our younger daughter was nervous and he helped keep her calm and and take frequent breaks so the rest of us could maximize our time. We saw a number of turtles of various sizes and it was an incredible experience!
Loved swimming with turtles!

We were looking forward to this kayak trip, it exceeded our expectations! The snorkeling was such a great experience due to Andre's advice plus swimming around all of the turtles/ fish. Such a nice guy. Gave us a great lunch recommendation too!
Great for teenagers

Awesome views

The kayaking and snorkeling was awesome. We saw so many tropical fish and sea turtles. Which is why I gave it 4 stars. I didn’t give it 5 stars because the discrimination said a dry bag would be provided and we would have the option to purchase pictures of the trip after. Neither were offered at the site. we didn’t have water proof phone bags so we were unable to take our cell phones. Or any pictures. The snorkeling equipment was older and I kept drinking water. The trip was awesome. I wish I could of captured some of the beauty experienced on the trip. I would recommend you buy a water proof phone bag and bring your own snorkel equipment.
Loved this excursion!

John Hess was an amazing tour guide. He was thorough with safety procedures without being over bearing. We were in really good hands the entire excursion. He is also very knowledgeable about Hawaiian culture, wildlife, and geography. It's clear John loves what he does; we learned and saw so much.
