Such a fun experience. There were 4 in our party. Two actually went snorkeling and the other two watched turtles. The staff went above and beyond.
It was worth every penny. We had a great time. We highly recommend a change of clothes and wet wipes to clean up after. It was a dusty day and we were filthy by the end but it was worth it.
It was an amazing experience of Kayaking and Pauno has done great job as our guide
He was very patient with us and took photos of us from standup paddle board
Wherever he found turtles he took us there and we are truly happy with the experience
We did the No Wiki Kona LUXURY SAIL, dolphin watching, snorkeling. This was the best Catamaran snorkeling sail we've ever been on! (and we've done quite a few)
The captain and crew were knowledgeable, friendly and very attentive. They found us a fantastic snorkeling spot in a reef corner with LOTS of different fish and turtles and no other boats there at the same time. The breakfast and lunch was really great as well. I loved that they put cushioned chairs on the mesh canvas area up font so that you could sit so comfortably in the best spot on the boat! I would definitely do this again and highly recommend it
The trainer for paddle boarding is great! We don’t know his name. He is a very skinny guy, tan, looks like a local or asian like. He is very helpful!
This was the best excursion for my family. My kids got to snorkel, kayak, and play vball. Everyone had soooo much fun! The staff is amazing and the musician played the best oldies. I knew almost all the songs!!! It ended up being karaoke night.
The maps are not helpful. Once out of the cove, it was hard to find the landmarks to orient ourselves. Did not see any fish or turtles while snorkeling. The wind was so strong and guides did not give advice on how to navigate in high winds- were paddling hard on right side trying to go left but kayak continued to go right. Upon finally making it back to the cove the guides did not get up from their seats, didn’t assist us getting out of kayaks and just told us to put the paddles and life jackets back ourselves.
Would not recommend.
Aloha. I am sorry to hear that you had a disappointing experience kayaking and snorkeling with us. And sorry that you did not find our map or our staff's instructions helpful. Was there any information missing from our map or anything that we could have added to the map to make it more helpful? Any feedback would be appreciated as we would love to improve if possible. Unfortunately we can never guarantee wildlife sightings. The animals are always there, you just have to be in the right place at the right time. I'm sorry that they weren't there for you that day. And although we are in the flattest bay on the island, we are still exposed to the wind and conditions, and there is almost always wind involved in ocean kayaking. But very sorry again that overall your experience was disappointing.
Very relaxed environment, welcoming crew, and fun to be had by all ages. We snorkeled, played volleyball and had a great lunch, I would definitely do again.
I was overwhelmed by the powerful nature! I usually ride cross or road bikes, so I participated in an intermediate bike tour this time. However, there were people who dropped out on thrilling paths that you can't experience in Japan, so I recommend the beginner course for those who are not good with roller coaster-like rides or lack confidence in their balance! That said, the authentic paths, stunning views, and support from the guide made me very satisfied!
For reference, not many people were wearing masks due to infection control, but I recommend wearing one to avoid inhaling dust. Also, since the sunlight is strong, UV protection is essential!
とにかく迫力の大自然に圧倒されました!
普段からクロスやロードに乗っているので今回は中級のバイクツアーに参加しましたが、日本では味わえないようなスリリングな道に途中脱落している人もいたので絶叫系の乗り物が苦手な方やバランス感覚に自信がない方は初心者コースがおすすめです!
ただそれだけ本格的な道と絶景、ガイドさんのサポートもあり大満足でした!
参考までに感染対策のためマスクをしている人はあまりいませんでしたが、土埃を吸い込んでしまわぬようマスクをされるのがおすすめです。また日差しが強いので紫外線対策は必須です!
This is a MUST do if you're going to the Big Island Hawaii. It was really a great way to see a lot of the islands best highlights. Even my husband loved it, who really doesn't like doing "tours" with groups / crowds and doing one ALL day long at that (likes his relaxation time on vacation). Our guide was fantastic, he gave us so much good information about the island, it's history, places, and everything in between. He was super attentive and made things fun as well. We would highly recommend this tour and specifically this company for a wonderful trip on the Big Island.
Great ride on the beach! Beautiful sunset! The guides were wonderful, friendly, informative. It was definitely a must do again!
Fantastic location! Superior guides who patiently walked us through every step! Enjoyed this adventure and highly recommend!
Nice atmosphere! Great dances which told stories. Engaging!
Hands down the most amazing experience ever! The guides were knowledgeable, supportive and made you feel safe. The whole experience was just magical! Thanks so much!
Marcus was a very knowledgeable astronomer and answered any question our group asked.
The staff was amazing, the trip was memorable for sure! Would def book with this charter co again!
Second time and it always amazes me I will totally be back next year with my fam!!
This trip was so much more than I expected! We started with a quick tour of rainbow falls and boiling pots. our guide Marcus was exceptionally knowledgeable about the plant life and history of both places. We then explored the lava caves, which was an unforgettable experience. Finally, we got to watch a beautiful sunset, followed by stargazing. I can’t believe how much astronomy I learned in one night. The skies were spectacular and once again Marcus seemed to have an endless fund of knowledge, answering all our questions in detail. The trip was unforgettable and Marcus is clearly a great asset to his company!
We had the best tour ever! We ended up being the only two on the tour and it was amazing. He even stopped and got us some donuts. We saw the best sunset and so many stars. Yoshi showed us all the different stars and the milky way on the telescope. He also took plenty of pictures of us and let me just say he is an amazing photographer. Would love to go again.
My kids age ranging from 5-9 years and they loved it! Best lunch-cheeseburger ever. Time went by so fast when you are on the boat having fun, I’m glad I picked this one over the three hour one fyi. We will definitely be back!
I love this tour! Being in a submarine allowed me a different perspective and appreciation of all sea life. My children and I loved this tour. I would recommend this tour to everyone. All of the staff are friendly.
Aloha James! Thank you for sharing your 5-star review. We're happy to hear you enjoyed your adventure exploring in a real submarine! We love providing an adventure that families can enjoy. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back in the future aboard one of our submarines and/or the Majestic by Atlantis Cruises for another Atlantis adventure; an underwater journey, sunset cruise, or seasonal whale watch cruise. Feel free to follow us on social media at #atlantishawaii.
A hui hou (until next time).
My daughter traveled to Hawaii alone, so I used your service. It was very safe and reassuring. Thank you very much.

Mahalo,
Iruka Hawaii.
The guides, the views and just riding an ATV combined for an incredible morning adventure in our overall relaxing Maui vacation. The guides were happy, friendly, helpful and informative. The views were incredible. I had never driven an ATV and I was given clear directions and guidance and felt at ease and had fun from the moment I put it in drive. This is 100% worth it!
Loved the activity! The travel was not too long. Food was really good and we could go for seconds. I got the VIP package and it was definitely worth it because it gets you closer to the stage, two framed photos to take back home as well as 3 comp drinks and some additional swag. Overall it was a great experience, the show went on longer than expected but we were okay with it. Highly recommend!
Aloha Evelyn, First of all thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to write about your experience at our family luau! So happy to hear that you were pleased with your premier seating in our Plumeria package, and the extra amenities, or as you stated "additional swag". We're also glad that you enjoyed our delicious buffet, a variety of island favorites. We hope you will share your time at our luau with your family and friends back home, and hopefully you'll be able to come back to our beautiful island one day, and maybe even come back to visit us too!! Mahalo, Germaine's Luau
Let's start with the good. Crew was fabulous. Boat was great. Live music was excellent. Variety of activities was excellent--especially the banana boat and disc events--which I highly recommend you add to your experience. Paddle boarding and kayaks were also a nice option for the family. Food/drinks was good too.
The not so good--the snorkeling was just average because we were not allowed to have much freedom to explore. They should allow a time allotment for the extra perks so more can enjoy the extra activities. The main negative was the music they played traveling back to shore--although fun for young adults and old--not too great for my 7 y/o as there was not the consideration of having music with bad language being played for her to hear and ask questions.
Still a good experience overall and would do again IF the music was at least filtered a bit.
Our guide Devin was very accommodating and knowledgeable! He was thorough when discussing safety in the reef and how best to use the equipment. He seemed to enjoy the experience as much as we did even though we know he does this every day! We were thrilled to be able to commune with sea turtles as they relaxed in the sunshine. He then navigated us through the coral reef and pointed out a bunch of wildlife we might have never have seen on our own. The snacks and drinks at the end of the tour were exactly what we needed after swimming for an hour and a half. We appreciated the personalized experience and would absolutely do this again!
Aloha and thank you for your kind words. We are thrilled you enjoyed you experience with us and hope to see again on another of our tours.
I was pleasantly surprised by this tour. The entertainment was really great! The woman who sang the songs has a great voice and fun banter;) Overall, a very fun affordable experience. Probably my favorite part was when they taught us the hula :)
