Lehua Crater & Na Pali Coast Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks
An Exciting Tour!
Reviewed by: Tisha, 2016/06/23Capt Wendell, Rich, Kama and Shak'd were amazing! The waters were "exciting" returning from Niihau, but Capt Wendell and crew didn't miss a beat! They took great care of me personally while on the tour, cannot thank them enough for that and a great day for my family!

ナ・パリ・コースト クルーズ 立ち入り禁止の聖域「ニイハウ島」沖でのシュノーケリング付き＜朝食・ビュッフェ昼食付き／英語ガイド＞
素晴らしい絶景!!
Reviewed by: kana, 2016/06/23ナパリに着く間に野生のイルカが船と一緒泳いでくれたり、無人島にはアザラシ?がお昼寝してたり、とにかく絶景だけでなく色々楽しめました。
ニイハウ島からの帰りはずっとジェットコースター状態。かなり船が揺れて具合が悪くなる人続出でしたが、クルーの方の対応がとにかく素早く的確で感動しました！色々コミュニケーションもとってくれて、英語がもっと話せたら、きっともっともっと楽しかっただろうなと思いました！
Thank you so much for joining us and for sharing your great review! We hope to see you again soon! Mahalo and Aloha

Aloha Kauai Beach Snorkeling Tour with Expert Guide (from Poipu) [Open Soon]
Awesome tour!
Reviewed by: Sam, 2016/03/14Amazing snorkelling tour, Paul and Miguel were awesome guides! They made sure everyone was comfortable before getting into the water and helped those of us who had never done it before. Paul was very entertaining and funny, and Miguel was cool at towing us around on the board. This is definitely something you should do while on Kauai, you won't regret it!

Kayak Kauai Hanalei River & Blue Lagoon Kayak & Snorkel Adventure
Snorkeled with turtle
Reviewed by: Jim, 2016/01/26This was a great excursion, which required a little grace and patience as it got started (van's battery was dead, had to switch vehicles), but was great overall. Fun to do both river and easy ocean kayaking. At the snorkel beach, we saw plenty of fish and also were treated to swim alongside a turtle. Steve was a great guide too.

Kayak Kauai Hanalei River & Blue Lagoon Kayak & Snorkel Adventure
Absolutely a perfect experience for us all!
Reviewed by: Jill Dutra, 2015/08/05This trip was one of our best yet! We have done several activities in Kauai and this one will be hard to beat. Jessie was our travel guide and he was wonderful. He was full of information about the island, he was easy to talk to and it's easy to see he loves what he does. We are a family of four with two teenage sons and all four of us enjoyed the entire day; that is not always an easy accomplishment! The kayaking was very fun, Hanalei Bay was amazing and the snorkel location was just beautiful. Our lunch on the beach was great and It was one of those memories that will last a life time. Jessie was very professional and made us feel very comfortable every step of the way. I would recommend this adventure to anyone!

Na Pali Coast Explorer Ocean Rafting Snorkel Tour (from Kikiaola Harbor)
Do the Na Pali Coast, but do it with someone else
Reviewed by: Beleu, 2015/01/08Our trip was from Kikialoa Harbor.
While some of the crew was nice, the captain was not.
We picked that operator because the boat had a Canopy that would have protected our parents from the sun as they were no interested in snorkeling, just the boat ride. However the boat was being worked on, canopy was not there and towards the end of the trip had mechanical issues.
On the day we show up, the weather was too bad for the Na Pali Coast, so we had the option to do the south shore instead. We asked to do the South shore, but the captain was hoping we could cancel and reschedule because he would rather go fishing that day. We then rescheduled for the next day as while not guaranteed, weather was looking much better, so he said.
Next day, same deal, weather was to bad for the Na Pali Coast, so we went on the South Shore as the Captain had no fishing plan that day.
We did see Turtles, Whales and Dolphin but the snorkeling spot was bad, we saw a couple gray fish and that was about it. Snorkeling 30 feet of the shore on our hotel beach on Poipu offered more species and colors that this trip.
Lunch didn't make it back from anything, each 12" Subway sub was to be split by 4 people and they were all the same with olives, which is a bad choice of topping for a group.
Once day I will do the Na Pali, but I will not use that the explorer, no Na Pali and No snorkling

ナ・パリ・コースト クルーズ 立ち入り禁止の聖域「ニイハウ島」沖でのシュノーケリング付き＜朝食・ビュッフェ昼食付き／英語ガイド＞
カウアイ島発 断崖絶壁の秘境海岸ナ・パリ・コースト＆聖域ニイハウ島へのシュノーケル・クルーズ
Reviewed by: emily, 2014/12/24前日にはヘリコプターツアーでカウアイ島を上空から見て深い峡谷の一望でき大感激でしたが、翌日はクルーズ船で断崖絶壁の海岸線を海上から見ることができ、違った意味で大変感動しました。その後、ハワイイルカの群れに遭遇したり、ホエールウオッチングも出来て、素晴らしかったです。初めての体験で楽しみにしていたシュノーケリングは海に飛び込んだ瞬間、海水が冷たくて、直ぐに諦めてしまいました。魚の群れも小さかったようです。一緒に乗船した外国の方の中には用意周到にスウェットシャツを用意されていた方がいましたので、事前の案内が欲しかったです。日本人が誰もいなかったのは良かったです。英語が分からない方にはつまらないと思いますが。約6時間半のクルージングでしたが、大満足でした。次回はシュノーケリングを練習してから乗船したいと思います。
アロハエミリー、
ありがとう！私たちは、あなたが私たちのゲストとしてあなたの時間を楽しんだことを嬉しく思います。私たちはあなたとあなたがカウアイ島にある次の時間をシュノーケルしたいと考えています。

Deluxe Na Pali Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
Perfect day
Reviewed by: Jody, 2014/12/23The tour was outstanding. The staff (Max, Captain Kelly, and Wade) were very professional and provided top-notch service. Their number one priority was ensuring safety of all the passengers. They helped passengers navigate around the boat when needed and made sure all passengers were comfortable throughout the tour. They also made service, including food and drinks, a priority. The 5 1/2 hours on the boat passed quickly. The morning started off with 45 minutes of snorkeling followed by a continental breakfast. The catamaran stopped frequently to view many sightings of whales and pods of dolphins . The staff was very knowledgeable and provided a history of the Napali coast while fielding questions as the passengers took in the breathtaking scenery. The catamaran veered alongside caves and inlets to allow passengers to be sprayed by waterfalls flowing off the 10,000 foot rock formations of the coast. A deli platter lunch followed with soft drinks, wine and beer. The catamaran Leila was well-taken care of with ample seating and standing for all. All in all, a very memorable trip! I would recommend Holo-Holo Charters without hesitation.
Aloha,
Thank you so much for choosing Holoholo Charters! Thank you also for your kind review. We're glad to know that you enjoyed your time with us!

Deluxe Na Pali Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
Great Day!
Reviewed by: Gregg, 2014/12/23We just finished an outstanding Naplai Coast catamaran/snorkel tour with Holo-Holo tours. What a day! The weather was perfect as was the staff and boat. Our crew of Captain Kelly, Matt, and Wade were friendly, personal, and knowledgeable. They briefed us before we departed on everything we needed to know- from safety and motion sickness to snorkeling to whales and dolphins. Then we departed on a terrific 50’ catamaran that, despite being filled to the maximum with 38 people, never felt crowded. We began with a 45 minute snorkeling stop, followed by brief stops to watch pods of dolphins and whales. Then it was on to the magnificent Naplai Coast, where our crew fielded questions and made us feel at home on their boat. This was followed by a great lunch with terrific service and unlimited food and beverages. They took us alongside caves and inlets, always made sure we were comfortable and had something to eat or drink, and clearly enjoyed their work. I will book my future tours with Holo-Holo.
Aloha Gregg,
Thank you for the great review! We are glad that you had a good time with us & that we were able to share some of Kauai with you.
Aloha Nui Loa,

Deluxe Na Pali Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
MUST DO in Kauai!!
Reviewed by: Erika, 2014/12/12We highly recommend this boat tour! First off, the crew was incredibly knowledgable about sailing, snorkeling, Hawaiian culture and history and they were beyond attentive to all of our needs on board. Our captain, Kelly, and her three crew members, Shakead, Max and Jay were a lot of fun throughout the day too. We had the opportunity to do some snorkeling, seeing sea turtles, spotted rays and an array of tropical fish - not to mention the school of dolphins that were close enough to touch! As we made our way to the NaPali coast, it was raining (something completely out of the control of our crew), but they still made the most of it. We saw the gorgeous coastline, while Kelly expertly navigated the seas. On our way back, the crew put up the sails and turned down the engines - it made for quite a relaxing way to travel back. Just before reaching port, we followed a few whales and did some whale watching. The crew was patient with everyone on board and made sure that if we wanted to stop to see the whales, we did! We appreciated their accommodating approach to our tour and it definitely was one of the highlights of our vacation at Kauai. Again, we highly recommend this activity!!
Aloha,
Thank you for your kind review and for choosing Holoholo Charters!

Lehua Crater & Na Pali Coast Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks
What a wonderful trip from beginning to end!
Reviewed by: Paul K., 2014/12/11What a wonderful trip from beginning to end! This was an amazing excursion. It started off early in the morning but I was delighted to see a captain full of energy and passion for his career. Even though the winds caused concern for our safety up the Na Pali coast, he made sure to kick start the trip with high spirits as we sailed off the dock at sunrise. The water was very calm and we got the chance to meet the crew over breakfast and coffee before our first sighting of dolphins! For the entire trip – even when the waters got rough – the crew was always interested in talking to us and telling us stories about the island. You could tell that they really enjoyed connecting with everyone which made our experience that much better. Who wants to be on a boat where the crew only care about getting the job done? – No one! Thus, this was a refreshing surprise. After going up the Na Pali coast we made our way to Nihau and snorkeled off the boat. The lunch served included sandwiches, veggies with dip, pickles and pasta salad. Of course, who can forget the wine and beer served on our way back to port? Overall, this was a wonderful trip with great company and we will definitely recommend to our friends and family. The next time we travel to Kauai we plan on cruising with Holoholo at sunset. Thank you Holoholo!!
Thank you for choosing Holo Holo Charters! We are pleased to hear you had a wonderful time and are more than happy to share our beautiful island scenery with all. Our customer are the best. Please feel free to leave a comment on TripAdvisor, Yelp and Facebook. Aloha and Mahalo!

Deluxe Na Pali Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
Not to be missed experience in Kauai!
Reviewed by: Sherryl O'Connor, 2014/12/10Today my husband and I went on the Holo Hola Napali Snorkel Sail tour. The tour exceeded our expectations in every way. The marina was easy to find and the check in process was pleasant and quick.. The boat was a beautiful 45 foot Catamaran; modern, spotless, white, with 2 big high efficiency motors for my comfort in open ocean! Our crew, Shaked and Max, and our Captain Kelly, were all so skilled, helpful, interesting, professional, and fun! We went snorkeling in a great spot and the water was warm! The trip down the coast was magnificent; scenery spectacular! We saw dolphins, turtles, lots of fish, and whales! We got to put the sails up for awhile and had two nice meals; good quality food, very nice people, and lots of room to move around on the boat. This trip was definitely a major highlight of our vacation on Kauai and this tour company is absolutely excellent! not to be missed!

Lehua Crater & Na Pali Coast Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks
awesome cruise
Reviewed by: Patrick, 2014/11/29Booked the activities through this website for NaPali and Nihau plus snorkeling.
Checked in the place at 6, and captain met us around 630. However, due to the weather condition, Nhau is not gonna be possible. 3 alternatives were given. We could either take the trip with a 25% discount, reschedule for another day or get a full refund on spot. Given we will only be on the island for one more day, we took the first option. And it didn't disappoint at all.
The ride to NaPali was a little rough, or "exciting" in the sailing world. Some people got sea sick and the threw up, but the crew members were very patient and friendly, didn't complain at all. We also saw a bunch of dolphins and a glimpse of whale during the ride. Captain stopped the boat for everyone to see in each situation.
On the way back, the weather got much nicer. We made a stop near Port Allen where we started for snorkeling. This was about an hour long. Once that's done, food was already waiting for us on the boat.
After lunch, we headed back and 25% refund was ready for us to pick up.
Overall, it was an awesome ride and honestly I couldn't ask for more. They offer both breakfast and lunch to accommodate its early schedule. They offer a large variety of drinks including beer, and all of them are free. The captain gives detailed background stories for every valley and beach we pass.
Just make sure to bring your towel and a camera, and you will be golden.
Aloha,

Kayak Kauai Hanalei River & Blue Lagoon Kayak & Snorkel Adventure
Jessie was the BEST tour guide. The ultimate professional and extremely personalable.
Reviewed by: Portland, OR Couple, 2014/07/26What more can we say? Jessie made our kayak tour the most exciting part of our Kaua'i vacation. He's 100% passionate about the island & maintaining it's splendor. Jessie know the island flora & fauna, as well as very interesting tidbits about the history. He is also an excellent kayaker, who remained calm throughout our outing. One of the 3 couples in our party had their kayak turn over and the wife, a non-swimmer panicked. Jessie made sure all were safe with life preservers securely fastened, despite the slight "adventure." This tour is worth doing again, and again. Thanks Jessie!

Na Pali Coast Explorer Ocean Rafting Snorkel Tour (from Kikiaola Harbor)
Beautiful views of Na Pali Coastline
Reviewed by: Travel4fun Group, 2014/07/07Great trip but do the morning excursion only. The ocean waves and winds can be brutal in the afternoon. We did the morning trip and the ocean waves were not too bad on the way to Na Pali. We saw dolphins and turtles along the way. The coastline is beautiful!!! The snorkeling spot was good but got better the further we got away from the shore. Lunch was very good with a chicken and rice dish. On our way back we went into a cave with the boat. This was very cool. The ride back to the harbor was brutal!!! Big waves and VERY bumpy!!!! If you get sea sick easily or have a bad back or neck then this is not the excursion for you. If you want a full experience of riding the waves then sit in the front. If you want a calmer ride, sit toward the back. Overall, this was a great excursion.

Na Pali Coast Explorer Ocean Rafting Snorkel Tour (from Kikiaola Harbor)
AWESOME EXPERIENCE!!!! MUST DO FOR KAUAI!!!!
Reviewed by: Vicki, 2014/05/12This was the best trip next to our helicopter ride that we took! The crew were wonderful and a lot of fun. We had great weather and a small group which allowed us more time to go further up the coast and see more of the sea caves. Up close and personal with two pods of dolphins and 2 large groups of sea turtles, so close to the boat you could reach out and touch them. The small raft was a perfect way to see this part of Kauai's coast. So much more fun than the big sailing boats. Getting in and out of the raft at the beach landing was a little tough but the crew were right there to assist you.
This was a once in a lifetime trip and well worth the time and money. Had a blast and would do it again when I come back.

Na Pali Coast Explorer Ocean Rafting Snorkel Tour (from Kikiaola Harbor)
This is the way to see the Na Pali coast,
Reviewed by: Christian, 2014/05/06This tour started at 9 am with a very friendly introduction of the island of kauai as well as how the coast was formed with a local flare. We set out with Captain Dennis shortly after 9:30, he and his crew did a very good job at making sure all of the guest were comfortable and relaxed. We were able to sit on both sides of the boat which made it really fun because of the splashes from the water. We cruised for about 20 minutes before we encountered spinner dolphins, whales, and we also saw a lonely sea turtle floating passed our boat. Throughout the whole trip the deckhands were telling stories, legends and filling us in all the movies that were filmed on the Na Pali coast. We were able to venture passed many waterfalls and sea caves one of which Captain Dennis backed the boat right into the cave so we all could take pictures of the inside. It seemed dangerous but the Captain was fully in control the whole time. On the way back the surf was huge so we snorkeled in a calm area in front of the coast which was crystal clear and we could see all the way to the bottom about 40 feet. One of the deckhands actually went all the way down and pulled up some sand for me bottom. Lunch was good but not great. Bento's were a bit cold from sitting in the cooler but they were still tasty, it needed shoyu and some kind of hot sauce. They ride back was comfortable the whole way with more stories being told about the living in kauai and how the alii influenced the lifestyle. The local long haired deckhand was awesome we even met a pro surfer at the coast. Definitely recommend seeing the Na Pali coast in the water instead of paying three times the amount for 1/4 of the time. Perfect way to spend the morning and afternoon.
Aloha Christian thank u so much for your review we appreciate all of your comments and welcome u back to Kauai and our Na Pali Ohana anytime! Our goal is to give the very best tour that we can always, and guests like u make it all worthwhile!!

Deluxe Na Pali Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
Fun Day and Amazing Scenery
Reviewed by: Paul and Karyn, 2014/03/31This trip was really good, there were a few little downfalls, but overall we really had a great time! The only negatives were that we had to snorkel as soon as we went out that morning because the captain had warned us it would be too rough by the afternoon, so it was a little chilly at 9 am and our snorkel spot didn't have much to see. When we got back on board, there was a really nice breakfast waiting for us and drinks flowing. We saw some sea turtles and whales and dolphins, and the captain always slowed down and let us get pics, etc. The ride out to the Na Pali Coast was awesome...(got really rough towards the end, and a few people were a little green), but when we stopped at the coast.....we all felt it was totally worth it for those views....amazing!!! We had lots of time for pics, the crew was awesome...full of interesting info and facts, and so quick to get you drinks or take your pic...they made it really great!! Lunch was also really good and we rode on the nets on the way back with the waves splashing up on us....really had a great day!!
Thank you so much for joining us again and for letting us know what a great time you had! We are elated to know how much you enjoyed it and will be looking forward to your next visit! Mahalo and Aloha

Deluxe Na Pali Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
Na Pali Coast sea sickness
Reviewed by: ZNmez, 2014/03/08We went on the 5 hour Napali coast snorkel adventure. Within the first 30 minutes we saw 10 whales and 50 dolphins! It was amazing. Giant turtles as well. We had about 30 minutes of snorkel time and a nice little brunch. While snorkeling there was an opportunity to get pretty close to a giant sea turtle and views of about 20 ft deep clear ocean to beautiful corral reef and tropical colorful fish. That's where the fun stopped for me. The further up the napali coast the more brutal the waters became. The waves were bigger than the boat! I have to admit this was nothing like what I expected . I was scared despite knowing that the staff and captain were experienced and careful, the waves and wind were just nothing like I have ever experienced. I've been on the ocean to Catalina island and didn't get sea sick, but this trip was another story. I puked and cried and puked some more! Two hours or more or puking and I missed the best part of the whale show for us. It was hard to enjoy the amazing views of the napali coastline because I was so sick but it truly was amazing!!! Don't do this tour in the winter and I think it would be breathtaking. The crew was amazing an took great care of all of us who got sea sick. They gave us water and new tissues. One of the guides even gave me his rain jacket to wear as long as I didn't puke on it! No gaurantees there, but the crew were lifesavers! Amazing amazing crew! One of the stores near by said that holo holo was the best and I believe them. They really took care of me and made me feel safe and well taken care of despite the circumstances. They even had ginger candy and saltines on board to help out. Crew also offered handy tips for other amazing views on the island
Mahalo for choosing Holo Holo Charters and also for your review. We are sorry to hear you that you got sea sick. We do have an amazing crew and it is always good to hear they are taking care of our guests. If you have the opportunity to come back to Kauai we would be more than happy to have you on board with us again. We hope the rest of your vacation was as memorable as our tour, except for the sea sick part. Mahalo Nui Loa and Aloha, until we meet again.

Deluxe Na Pali Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
Sail Away
Reviewed by: Reid Family, 2014/01/06This tour had two main components. The first was the actual experience of sailing on the ocean. This was fantastic! Most of us loved the waves and wind, while a couple not so much. The crew were attentive and kind to our seasick companions. We listened to our competent crew tell stories, and share their knowledge. Lunch was outstanding. Fresh salads, make your own sandwich, and homemade cookies for dessert.
The second part is seeing the Na Pali shoreline, which we were unable to do so due to the great swells in the North. Despite this, it was still a neat experience to see the same areas on the South shore that we had visited by land. We were able to see whales.
Snorkeling was not the best I have done, but we did have a sea turtle swim under us. We had to stop in an area that was not the usual, due to the windy weather, and this may have been a factor.
Overall, this was a very good experience with a competent crew, enjoyable scenery and good food.
It's wonderful to hear that, although there were alterations to the original tour route, you thoroughly enjoyed your time on the water and the overall experience! Thank you so much for joining us and for sharing your great review! Mahalo and Aloha

ナ・パリ・コースト クルーズ 立ち入り禁止の聖域「ニイハウ島」沖でのシュノーケリング付き＜朝食・ビュッフェ昼食付き／英語ガイド＞
激しい船酔い
Reviewed by: yuka, 2013/12/01当初申し込んでいた日は天候不良で中止。２日後に変更しました。
それでも風が強く、船酔いしました。
何人もの人が苦しんでいました。
せっかくの断崖はあまり楽しめませんでした。
でもシュノーケリングは、海も温かく楽しめました。
大きなうにがいました。
集合場所まで車で行っていたので、ビールが飲めず残念。
帰りは近くにスーパーもあるので、面白いかも。
We are so glad to have had you aboard and want to thank you for your honest comments on what you feel can be improved upon and how it impacted your overall experience. We hope to see you in the future and exceed all expectations! Until we meet again... Mahalo and Aloha

Deluxe Na Pali Guided Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch - Holo Holo Charters
Great Time!
Reviewed by: Gina, 2013/10/06We had a great time despite weather challenges. Crew was great!! Captain saw some dolphins and turned around and followed them for a good 15 minutes...it was amazing. We were able to lay on the front of the boat and were nearly close enough to touch them.
Thank you so much for joining us and for your 5-star review! Mahalo and Aloha
