Wonderful Anniversary kayak tour - Best anniversary ever! Alicia our tour guide was amazing! She made sure we all safely got to the Mokes, learned some island history, pointed out the wild life and the sea life, took great photos of the group and made the day memorable! The Howe’s are grateful for her today!

Awesome experience and great excercise. - Great experience. Did self-guided tour. Had plenty of time to kayak, snorkel, and rent bikes (all included). Was able to see seals. Very happy we experienced this. Bring LOTS of water.

Kayak paddle to nature preserve island. - Brandon gave a great kayak tour to the island. We saw turtles and had fun walking around the tide pools and lava rock on the island 🏝.
Kicked back with lunch on the beach and went snorkeling.
Very friendly and great stories about the area.
We liked getting picked up from Waikiki so we could enjoy the view as we crossed the mountains to the other side of Ohau.

Amazing adventure! - Kayaking to an island was a good workout, but definitely worth the effort! Brian was a fantastic guide, kept us safe, and provided a wealth of knowledge about the islands and the creatures on it!

Highlight of our visit - What a blast it was to kayak to a small island with a bird sanctuary, see a monk seal basking on the beach, plunge into Queens Bath, climb some volcanic rock, then enjoy a picnic lunch on the beach before paddling back. Our guide Riki provided a great deal of information about the island and its inhabitants. Having the guided tour was definitely worth the cost. The guide made such a difference in the quality and enjoyment of the day. 5 hours went quickly but it was an awesome experience we would consider next visit to Honolulu.

Incredible and fun experience! - I had a wonderful experience with Mike and my other adventurers. We almost thought we wouldn’t make it with the crazy winds, but after a quick break on flat island, we were able to get to twin islands after the wind died down.

Fun but too hard for inexperienced kayakers. - Although this was a beautiful trip, we never should have been allowed on this tour. 3 of the people on our tour had only kayaked 1 time. This trip was too hard for us. The guide told us that if he didn't think we could do it, he would send us on the 2 hour trip, and he should have. The winds were 10 to 15 knots, which made the paddling difficult at times. Once on the island, we were taken on a hike that included difficult terrain over lava rocks. During this time, one of our friends fell and sustained severe bruising and cuts that didn't stop bleeding out entire trip to Hawaii. Pulling the canoes through the sand was almost impossible for us, and if others hadn't helped us, we couldn't have done it. Don't take this trip if you aren't an experienced kayaker.
