Great Experience - We did the Epic self guided tour which was excellent. I don’t feel like we missed anything. Go see all of Kauai. It’s very doable. Beautiful Waimea canyon and waterfalls to snorkeling, kayaking and hiking. The Shaka guide was entertaining and very informative about the sites we were seeing. Directions were excellent.

Awesome snorkel/outstanding guide - Outstanding guide--awesome snorkeling experience. Ku'ulei is the total professional--so very helpful and attentive. Best guide/snorkeling experience in the 15+ years we've been coming to Kauai.

Safety over profits - Unfortunately due to rough conditions our tour was canceled, but I really appreciate they put safety over money. We have young daughters who aren’t the strongest swimmers so really appreciate the judgment call. They offered to rebook or full refund.

An Exceptional Snorkeling Experience - Got to check off a bucket list item and got to do it with my two adult sons. We loved the quiet and beauty of the ocean just below the surface. Our guide Callie was amazing! She made it a wonderful experience.
