This was so much better than I could have ever imagined. Jeff was awesome and super knowledgeable. We lucked out and got to spend a ton of time with a mama and baby whale before snorkeling. We would go back in a heart beat! Don’t sleep on this tour! And ask for Jeff!

The experience was above and beyond our expectations. Tyler was an amazing guide. He has a strong love for what he does and an appreciation and pride for Maui culture. The ocean in his happy place. You can tell he respects sea life. Very knowledgeable. He got us close to whales but not too close - safety and respect for these great creatures. Also took us to a spot teeming with sea turtles for snorkeling. All in all, he delivered an outstanding experience

Our guide Jeremiah did such a good job and had a great sense of humor. His instructions on safety were very clear. We saw so many whales while kayaking. This was the most memorable excursion of my Maui trip!

Miah was an experienced, knowledgable guide. He captured phenomenal pictures of our trip and could speak to a variety of topics about Hawaii. We had a blast!
