1.00Hands down the worst company I’ve booked with. Tourists beware, and locals should stay away. The crew was rude and seemed completely uninterested in providing a good experience. If your policy requires flotation belts at all times, then your advertising should reflect that. Showing guests snorkeling without them while enforcing the opposite policy is misleading. Lying about Coast Guard regulations is unprofessional and completely unnecessary. After reading several other negative reviews, it’s clear this isn’t an isolated incident. They seem more concerned with pushing customers through and making money than addressing negative feedback.

4.00Excellent tour! Only issue I had was getting in contact with the Get Your Guide contact to make changes to my reservation. No one answered phone/email listed on the tour info. So many turtles! The crew on May 28th 2026 for the 11:45 snorkel/sail were amazing and did an excellent job!

1.00Years of snorkeling on the islands and this was the worst trip. No aloha. Book with any other company. They do not care about you. It is completely a commercial transaction.
