Best dolphin watch tour in Oahu - We saw a group of 20-30 dolphins, and there were the baby dolphins! Also fun snorkeling and beautiful scenery around the shore! Thank you to our hosts Tyler and Yoshiko for their fun energy and organizing the trip! Thank you to the crew( Jeremy, Ben and Caden) for making the tour so fun and hula dance will be an unforgettable memory for us!

A great fun and exciting trip - The whole trip was brilliant. Staff and crew helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Amazing captain Dani and her team. As it’s a wildlife trip, we appreciate that you’re not guaranteed to see anything but We saw dolphins, seals, flying fish, turtles, and the snorkling was fun with a great range of fish, coral and saw a ray. Would highly recommend this trip.

Best dolphin/snorkeling tour - Such a fun time! Tyler our personal paparazzi and guide was awesome and captured the best photos that will be forever memories for my family. Captain Danni let our 2 younger boys sit at the wheel, so thankful. And I can forget to mention Ingrid and her knowledge of the island along with the crew Ben and Tita, loved her hula dance. Oh and last but not least the best driver on the block, Mahea. All in all, great time and would definitely recommend!!!

Dolphins are beautiful creatures. - Enjoyed watching the spinner dolphins and spotting a couple of turtles. Quinn was a wonderful tour guide. Snorkeling for the first time was a new experience for me.

Too pricey for what you are getting. Don’t get the pictures package! - The experience was overall positive, however we only got one hour to snorkel which was not enough to properly enjoy the water. Most of the trip was taken up by transportation which took 2 hours to get from Waikiki. The picture package isn’t worth it at all, they will take random pictures of everyone, only maximum of around 25 pictures of you and out of them half was of my back and the other half wasn’t too great either. The picture package was 80 bucks extra and it really feels like we were scammed out of our money. We got to see the dolphins and flying fish and also a single turtle which was pretty cool. The crew also did some complimentary mini show where they did a traditional Hawaiian dance and also sung for a little. However you can get better tours for this price. Don’t recommend.

Incorrect information in the product description - Unfortunately, false promises are being advertised here. On the ship we were informed that swimming with dolphins is now prohibited. We could only look at them from the ship, but were then let into the water at another point. Therefore, there should not have been a star at all. On the positive side, however, the crew should be singled out. You did a super job and made yourself feel comfortable. The bad review only refers to the misinformation of the organizer. The title - swimming with dolphins and turtles in the wild - as well as phrases in the description such as: - after playing with dolphins - are misleading. In addition, there are old reviews from the time when swimming with dolphins was obviously allowed, which were not adapted to the current situation.
