Captain Ko was awesome !... - Captain Ko was awesome ! He is kind and keeps his boat beautifully well maintained. He took us to two incredibly beautiful snorkel locations and we saw dolphins, turtles and thousands of amazing fish. He has all the snorkel equipment that is clean and perfect. High recommendations !

A Must Do Experience - We had a wonderful experience with Captian Ko and Joe. Having a tour guide take you around in the water to point out where to look and see all the fish was very beneficial. This can only happen on a private tour. We also received a video of our experience so we didn't have to worry about taking photos ourselves and could enjoy the experience. We would highly recommend this charter.

Incredible Tour - Absolutely Amazing trip with Captain Ko and Joe. We were looking for a private, fun, and memorable snorkel trip and they delivered. We went to the crystal clear waters of Kealakekua Bay and got to see so many fish and even an octopus. The boat was very very nice and comfortably accommodated 6 of us plus the captain and tour guide. Highly recommend this tour!!!

Amazing time! - We had a wonderful time on this cruise tour with Joe and our captain Kho!! Very kind with us, and so helpful in any way… We highly recommend this tour. Everything was just perfect!!! We all loved it 😍

Whale watching and Snorkeling Adventure! - There are not enough good things to say about this experience. Beginning with the ease of booking, to the communication before our trip, to the trip itself-Aloha Kona Tours was nothing short of amazing! Captain Koichiro was fantastic at spotting the whales and getting us in a good spot to watch them. We were so grateful for all the island's history along the ride given to us by Jordan. This whole crew were so patient and worked well with us, especially my 6 and 3-year old nephews (Thanks Shay!). We saw dolphins, whales, turtles, snorkeled in the bay, and were given snacks after our swim to enjoy on our leisurely ride back to the marina. I highly recommend this company to anyone wanting to charter their own boat in Kona, especially if you have children that you want to take with you!!

Best Tour Ever - We have a wonderful time, saw many whales, Captain KO and Joe are super nice and make you feel like long time friends. Thanks for everything guys!

Private Tour - This was really worth it. The guys made it fun yet relaxing. Will certainly ride with them next time we are here!

Cannot recommend enough! - Had an amazing time with Captain Ko and Jordan. We saw dolphins and turtles during our trip, and snorkeled at K-Bay. Everything you need for snorkeling is provided, and Captain Ko had a nice snack board available for us after our swim. They were both very knowledgable about the area and taught us se local history. The boat ride was very enjoyable and felt safe the while time. Having a private tour with just our family was very relaxing (no crowds of people). Bonus, Captain Ko took great pictures of our family for us. Cannot recommend enough! Mahalo for an unforgettable experience!

Amazing Private Charter Snorkel to Kealakekua Bay - Had a wonderful morning private charter with Captain Ko and Jordan. Could not have asked for a better experience. Had a great snorkel at Kealakekua Bay and a lovely fruit platter after we got back on the lovely boat. We were lucky enough to see a few pods of dolphins. A highlight of our two week stay on the big island. Highly recommend!!

Great tour, great company. Thanks Captain Ko and Avery for a truly memorable day! - Our family did the private morning charter with Captain Ko and Avery and loved it! This tour was my (teenage) daughter’s favorite part of our trip to Hawaii. I chose Aloha Kona Tours when trying to find a snorkeling tour. We have been on group snorkeling tours in Hawaii in the past, and I thought it would be nice to have a private tour. I was right! Captain Ko and Avery reminded us when we met them that this was a charter just for us so we could choose whatever we wanted to do and wherever we wanted to go. The boat was new, clean and very comfortable with plenty of room. They provided drinks and snacks and even a cheese, cracker, salami and fruit board for us after snorkeling. I was not sure if my kids would be board with the boat trip back and forth from the snorkeling area, but that was not the case! Captain Ko showed us many sites along the way and Avery talked to us about all things Hawaiian, including Hawaiian history. But unexpectedly for me, they were able to find dolphins who were swimming all around our boat! They told us they can find whales many times too. They also showed us huge, amazing rock formations as we drove back and forth along the coast. My kids even did some cliff jumping with Avery! The snorkeling was, of course, awesome. Avery snorkeled with us as a guide in the water, and we got to see octopus and she showed us sea cucumber, in addition to the beautiful reef and abundance of fish. Both Captain Ko and Avery were very personable, making sure we were enjoying every moment. I highly recommend this company.
