4.00Almost our entire family enjoyed this boat ride…except my son who felt seasick. We did everything to prepare including wearing a patch and taking meds, but it was a bit too choppy in the winter waves for him. The captain and assistant were knowledgeable and we felt very safe. Love that this doesn’t have the large crowds of a catamaran. We got to see dolphins swimming next to us and a whale in the distance. We stopped for snorkeling but unfortunately there were only a few of us on the boat who wanted to snorkel so we felt kind of bad having everyone wait on us and didn’t go long. The fish were beautiful and they throw food out to bring them in. My only complaint is that we arrived a full hour before we were supposed to come in, and we felt we could’ve searched for more sea life during that time.

5.00We did the Na Pali tour today and had amazing weather and a brilliant time - we were provided with insights into Hawaiian culture, the historical and geological contexts of the places we were visiting and came away feeling not only awe inspired by the coastline, the turtles and the whales but better informed by the stories shared by Matt. Ryan is an expert water man and we felt safe whilst gaining access to caves and cliffs. This is a MUST DO. This team of Ryan (Captain) and Matt are exceptional. Highly, highly recommended.

5.00An unforgettable rafting excursion along the Na Pali coast! From start to finish, the ride was an absolute blast—exciting, smooth, and perfectly paced to enjoy both the adventure and the scenery. The staff were incredibly friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, sharing interesting insights about the coastline and making everyone feel safe and welcome. One of the highlights was spotting dolphins swimming nearby—truly magical! The snorkeling stop was another standout, with crystal-clear water and plenty of time to explore and relax. This experience was the perfect mix of fun, nature, and discovery. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the Na Pali coast and looking for an unforgettable day on the water! 🌊🐬
Would do it again

5.00Nono and Max were fabulous tour guides. This tour was really the hit of our Hawaii experience. We saw sea turtles, whales, lots of fish and the coastline. Nono is an experienced captain with lots of knowledge of the area. Max was as sweet and helpful as his first mate. Would recommend a hundred times more.

2.00I really enjoyed the boat tour and overall it was a memorable experience. Seeing whales up close was incredible and something I’ll never forget. That said, I was genuinely concerned about safety during the trip. At one point a whale came extremely close to the boat, and even the captain appeared frightened. Additionally, no life jackets were provided or offered to passengers, which made the situation feel more risky than it should have been. I would strongly encourage the tour management to ensure proper safety measures are in place, including providing life vests to all passengers and reinforcing safety protocols. With better attention to safety, this tour could be an outstanding experience.
