    5/5

    We did the Maui and Lana'i snorkel tour and dolphin encounter. Emma and AJ were fantastic, very knowledgeable about the islands, animal life, and local spots. We got to see a huge pod of spinner dolphins during the tour that came right up to the boat, and snorkeled in two spots with crystal clear water and plenty of fish. The banana bread and fresh fruit were also delicious. As a newer touring company, I wish them only the best, because they deserve it! You can tell that they really care about sustainable tourism with a personal touch. Highly recommend!
