Best day of my life!! - I went kayaking with Andreas as our guide, and I had the best time of my life. They were on time and very chilled but professional as well. Andreas kept us entertained the whole time with stories and facts about whales and the island. After our tour he told us the best places to get the best food. I would highly recommend this kayaking tour. I did a whale watching tour on a boat but the experience you get from kayaking between the whales is an experience you will never forget or regret.

Unforgettable kayak tour! - Amazing time! Humpback Whales were plentiful and close. So much so that we skipped the snorkel and spent entire time with the whales. Andres, our guide, made it so much fun! He was very attentive and kept us very safe. Would highly recommend this tour! Book it!

Kayaking and snorkeling - My husband and I had an awesome morning adventure kayaking then snorkeling off of Makena Landing with our guide, John. We were so close to whales, literally had one swim directly under our kayak, then listened to his song for some time. The snorkeling also exceeded our expectations. John knew just where to take us for the best experience and took photos for us so we did not miss a thing. Highly recommend!

Great day with Andreas - We had a wonderful kayaking and snorkeling experience with Maui Kayaks. Our guide, Andreas was great! His knowledge and experience led us to see and hear the whales up close and personally. Then he guided us to the reef to snorkel with turtles and beautiful fish. His expert photography was an added bonus.

Great trip with lots of whales. - It was just us and John today and we saw so many whales! Several times the whales just hung out near us. John got some great pictures and an excellent video underwater of a mom, baby, and male escort. We had a great time and decided to just watch whales and not snorkel.

Great experience, great price - We booked the 3 hour kayak with whales and snorkeling with Maui Canoes with guide Andres was excellent. We departed from Makena Landing at 7:00 am. Andres loaded us all into the canoes and off we went. It was a clear and not very windy. For the first 90 minutes whale watching was plentiful and then the seas went silent which can happen. Then we snorkeled the remaining time, some fish, a large eel and a turtle were spotted. Lots of kayaking. Andres was great

Wonderful experience! - We had such an amazing time with our guide Andres. We booked a kayak whale watching tour. Luckily for us, that morning, my husband and I were the only guests, so it was only our guide Andres and us two. We went out on the kayaks and even though weather conditions were not optimal, Andres had a very good sense on where to go - and he was right. We got to see a Humpback whale with it’s newly born calve several times, close up. Absolutely amazing. We let Andres take the pictures and videos, so that we were able to fully enjoy the experience. Andres‘ passion for whales and his positive energy made the trip super fun! Highly recommend!

Fun Kayaking and Whale Watching Experience - We had a blast! Andres was awesome!! You can tell he loves what he does. The conditions weren’t great for snorkeling so we went whale chasing instead and we’re able to see them up close!! It was an amazing experience. Thanks Andrea!
