Payson was a great guide, very informative. It was an overall great tour! I would recommend this tour. We did indeed see some turtles!
Great excursion! Tour guide was great! Kayaks and equipment were great. Spot was great. Turtles were there!
We LOVED this trip. Saw probably fifteen big turtles. The guide was super nice. We were a small group and the location feels very off the beaten path which is a nice change from the many other big tourism vendors.
This was my first time in Maui and first time Snorkeling, I can very confidently with love say that this tour was one of the best outdoor activities experience I ever had. Payson was very welcoming and thorough with instructions. He made extra efforts to make sure we get to spot as many turtles as possible! Definitely would book again when we visit again! 5 stars!!!
Had an amazing time. Payson was a great tour guide and made sure we all had a great experience. I will be recommending this company to everyone. And got to see so many turtles!
Amazing experience! Our guide, Payton, was incredible! It was a small tour group and he was thoughtful, patient and made the excursion so much fun! We saw 5 or 6 turtles, so many fish and beautiful coral reefs.
Incredible Turtle experience with Payton! He promised an amazing big Turtle Experience & he delivered! We had great Kayak instruction as well as equipment guidance and he stayed close as promised. The added addition was a nice surprise with photos & videos that we had the option to purchase which we did!
This was such a great experience and Payson (guide) was exceptional. We saw a bunch of turtles (7+) and he took awesome pictures throughout the tour. Yes, I know there was another reviewer who commented about the fee for the pictures that Payson took. What price can you put on your phone and worrying about your phone throughout the tour. Leave it and embrace the experience and let him capture all the pics. So worth it !!!!! Great pics, great kayaking & snorkeling. Just do it…….you won’t regret it !!
Payson and the turtles were wonderful! We saw over 6 turtles of various sizes as well as two octopus and a fair number of beautiful fish. I tend to rock a bit when paddling. Between that and the wind, we tipped over. Payson got us back in the boat and made sure everyone was nearby and watching out for safety.
