Amazing private boat tour! 10/10

5.00We have kids ages 4, 5 and 7, the captain and crew treated us like their own family and costumized an adventure based on our requests. We were lucky and got to snorkel with manta rays and lots of fish , and saw a super pod of hundreds of dolphins up close. The trip was booked from 9am to 1130 but they extended our trip at no additional cost, 10/10 would highly recommend this charter !

5.00Brian was an excellent captain and tour guide. He took care of us in every way. He provided a delicious lunch of pineapple, sandwiches, and chips and salsa. We had children on the boat and he made sure that they were comfortable and had fun. The boat was a very comfortable ride for our entire party. We saw mantas, spinner dolphins, and we snorkeled Kealakekua Bay. Thank you so much. We will recommend to all of our friends.
Time of our lives!

5.00Our group of 10, Rise & Shine, had the best time! The morning boating trip with Bryan and Riley was smooth and easy — they showed us everything around the island and provided everything we needed. The second trip, the Manta Ray night experience with Bryan and Sky, was truly unique and absolutely amazing. Highly recommend!
