Snorkeling with the turtles - They are amazing. The small group was fantastic and very personable. The guide was with us the whole time and provided a lot of information. He even took pictures with my GoPro. The return included pictures and more information. I highly recommend.

Best part of our vacation - Sam and Nick were awesome! Great experience with a great crew. We loved that it was an intimate group - six guests in total and it felt like we had a customized tour. Nick was in the water with us and was able to answer questions about the marine life and local areas. Highly recommend!

Amazing Excursion - The tour guides were phenomenal! Very accommodating and informative about the island. They got us right in the middle of tons of beautiful fish and incredible sea turtles. Afterwards, they let my daughter and husband jump off the boat in to the ocean for a bit which was so fun. The boat was great and felt almost like a private tour with our family and one other couple.I would definitely book this excursion with this company again. All around wonderful experience!

Small group is the way to go! - Highly recommend this tour and these hosts! For the price, only 3 in my group were scheduled and they still took us on the tour. So for the same price we got a private tour! Saw lots of fishes and turtles!! From where we were swimming, def glad we weren’t on those boats with 30-40 people. And the boat even has bean bags in the front to lounge in.

Francesco and Nick need a raise! - Francesco and Nick helped me mark two things of our bucket list: seeing sea turtles, we were blessed to see 6! And seeing spinner dolphins so close to us, huge pod that made us know how spinner dolphins got their name! They were both so polite and professional! Thank you so much!

Amazing experience - Our tour was delayed by a day due to weather conditions. Our tour operator, Francesco was most accommodating in rescheduling for the next day. It so happened that the other four participants had to cancel due to their travel issues, so Francesco and his partner took my wife and me for what turned out to be private experience.
We did not see any turtles this time, however, they took us further out where we saw five whales swimming only a few yards from us. The whole experience was amazing, and we could not have asked for a more friendly, professional, and helpful guide.

Really enjoyed it - Exceeded expectations, hosts were friendly and attentive, saw turtles, lots of fish, and they went above and beyond to show us 3 whales that were near by. Will go again next time in Honolulu.
