Fun Kayaking and Plenty of Turtles! - My husband and I booked this trip and John S. Was our guide. John was an excellent tour leader, very upbeat and positive, as well as patient and helpful. He made kayaking easy with clear simple instructions. In addition, John was quite patient with me as I am not a good snorkeler. He made it easy for even me to view the sea turtles. The photos he took were outstanding. We highly recommend this tour.

Turtle Town via Kayak - I am a senior woman traveling solo. Andres Silva reassured me that I would be fine, and I was. His expert direction and guidance kept me calm. It was an amazing experience and Andres was informative and fun.

Swam with sea turtles!! 😍 - WOW!!! Hands down the best experience of my life!! It’s always been a dream of mine to swim with sea turtles and John made that happen. 100/10 experience and will definitely be doing this again when we come back to Maui! John was excellent in showing us the ropes of kayaking and made it super fun and easy. If you’re thinking about snorkeling, do it!!

Very Disappointing - The morning off the tour I showed up in the right place and was told they were not there. I called the owner and he told me they canceled for bad weather. There was no clouds in the sky and all the other companies were taking out groups. They said they called, left a message, sent a text and email but they did not. I did not get any of these from them. 2 other groups also had the same issue and did not receive and info about the cancelation.
