Sea Life adventure - Both Tour guides Austin & Sophia were friendly, offered to take our photo, Austin provided a lot of information about the whales we saw & about the turtle. Seeing sea life is awesome.

Great experience and great views - It was a really great experience, Ian and Stone made the trip fun and educational, it is a great idea if you want to be on the water and cruise pass the hotels and beaches and get some information about Waikiki, it wasn't packed either, it's worth the price for the hour you get to spend on the Glass Bottom Boat. I would recommend it for Family or a Date.
