Ocean Encounters Manta Ray Snorkel Tour - Sunset & Moonlight Cruise from Kona
Awesome
Reviewed by: Chelsea, 2022/09/13This was an amazing once in a lifetime experience. Highly recommend going on this tour. The moonlight tour would be my recommendation because there are less boats in the cove. The crew on this trip were great and very helpful the entire trip. They had drinks and snacks available when on the boat. The mantas were constant the entire time we were in the water and I was able to get great footage on my GoPro!

Reviewed by: Andy, 2022/09/13Everything is as promised. Great and professional crew. Catamaran was very clean and safe. Beverages always available at no additional cost (except alcoholic). Good continental breakfast and lunch with extra snacks available. We always felt safe and secure both onboard and while snorkeling. Crew added historical info throughout the trip. I highly recommend this trip.

Aloha Kona Tours Private Boat Charter - Kealakekua Bay Snorkel & Dolphin Watch
Two fantastic private cruises! Thank you Aloha Kona Tours!
Reviewed by: Jim Nicholl, 2022/09/12We prefer private charters and snorkeling trips and Aloha Kona Tours did not disappoint. We had such a good time on our Sept 9th cruise we booked a night time Manta Ray cruise the very next day!
On our first cruise we got to see turtles and dolphins and actually got to snorkel with a 25 foot whale shark. It was outstanding! The Captain is excellent and the Crew is very friendly and knowledgeable! The Captain was accommodating to our request for our outing to make the trip very personalized.
On our second night Manta Ray cruise we enjoyed a stunning sunset cruise and tour of the city from the water. Then we snorkeled with the Manta Rays for about 30 minutes. They have all the gear and the Crew was so accommodating. Three of us got in the water and swam with the Rays and our fourth person was a little shy but the Crew made sure she got to see the Rays up close without leaving the boat.
Both trips were truly unforgettable and amazing! The boat is beautiful and comfortable.
Thanks Aloha Kona Tours,
Jim, Jodi, Debye and Larry

Hawaii Manta Ray Sunset & Night Time Snorkel Experience from Kona - Iruka
Amazing experience for young and old
Reviewed by: familytour2022, 2022/09/12We had an amazing time on this tour, the guides were knowledgeable, funny and accommodating. My 3 year old got to ride on the party pit and loved seeing the mantas up close. Really appreciated all the extra care the staff took to make sure everyone was supported and felt comfortable. We saw at least half a dozen different rays and our biggest challenge was not touching them when they swam right up to us! Can not recommend this tour enough
Aloha!
Thank you for the positive comments about our team, we're glad your group felt safe and satisfied! We do offer a repeater discount of 20% off, so please keep us in mind for future travel plans.

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour with Meal, Transportation & Guide
Amazing
Reviewed by: Ashley, 2022/08/31Absolutely amazing, a once in a lifetime experience made easy through this tour group. Easy to accommodate our special pickup needs, kind and knowledgeable guide. It was a guided tour, but plenty of time to wander and explore on our own. The stars and cocoa were amazing and the photos were first class that we received!! Highly recommend!!!! This was my sister's favorite activity during our week long Hawaii stay!!

4.5-Hour Sea Paradise Premium Kealakekua Bay Snorkel Tour with Breakfast & Lunch
Great trip!
Reviewed by: TRK, 2022/08/28A smooth sail and comfortable ride. The crew was very professional and knowledgeable. I didn't think I'd want a pool noodle...but get the pool noodle. It helps alot unless you plan to free dive. The food and drinks were good and sandwiches are fine for a boat trip. Don't expect fine dining. Plenty of room on board, even if you feel it might fill up with guests. The crew was there to keep the boat clean as well. I'd recommend getting there early for parking, as there's only street parking and you might have to walk to get to the launch. Beautiful boat. Enjoyed the trip! Thanks!
Aloha,
Mahalo Nui Loa for sharing your experience with us! We do also agree with taking as many pool noodles as you would like. It's called a "vacation" for a reason. We hope to see you on your next visit to the Big Island! Until then, A Hui Hou and safe travels!

Reviewed by: Merritt Hillman, 2022/08/27My wife and I did this tour on our honeymoon. We come from the Midwest US and have not ever really been able to see many stars hence our booking this trip.

Hawaii Manta Ray Sunset & Night Time Snorkel Experience from Kona - Iruka
10/10 Amazing Experience
Reviewed by: Mayra Mateo, 2022/08/27The crew was awesome! They made sure everyone was safe and made accommodations for those that needed it. I hope those that needed a little extra help also appreciate them because they did an amazing job! We saw at least 7 mantas that night. It’s one thing seeing them at the zoo and another snorkeling with them. Towards the last 10 minutes of the session, we had 4 mantas doing flips under our floating matt. It was so mesmerizing! Such beautiful creatures! Would definitely do it again in the future! 10/10
Aloha!
We love to hear all the positive feedback about our Manta Ray Experience! Mahalo for joining us and we hope to see you again soon, we offer a 20% discount for repeating customers.

Big Island Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour Adventure on a Hawaiian Sailing Canoe
Excellent
Reviewed by: EGrE, 2022/08/18This is an intimate and friendly canoe trip. I enjoyed it with my three kids and the crew was helpful and patient with my littlest one who had never snorkeled. We got an incredible education about the Mantra Rays and saw them within inches of us. I can’t recommitting enough. I really liked having a smaller group and special type of boat.

Deluxe Big Island Day Tour, Volcanoes National Park & Dinner at Kilauea Lodge
Fantastic tour with great tour guide!
Reviewed by: Michelle Matheson, 2022/08/15Derek was awesome! This was a great way to see a lot in one day. Started out with amazing views at a coffee farm. Derek set up a nice picnic lunch there (turkey sandwich, bag of chips, and a delicious cookie). After that we went to the southernmost bakery in the United States. Malasadas were provided (either passion fruit or original) and you had the option to purchase any additional if you wanted. Then we headed to the black sand beach where we saw a turtle. It was beautiful there. After that we head to volcano National park where we saw some steam vents and some awesome views and then volcano house where they have an incredible views of the crater. We had dinner after that at Kilauea Lodge. The food was good and the service was excellent. Surprisingly we had live entertainment too (although we were told that was rare). Then we went on a mile walk in the dark to see the lava. Really flat and easy walk for the most part. The end is mostly rocks but not bad at all. Derek provided jackets, flashlights and had a telescope set up to enhance the views and we were lucky enough to have a very active night. Highlight of the trip!! Then we walked back and headed back home. Throughout the day there's a lot of driving but derek keeps everyone entertained with lots of stories about Hawaiian history and the geology of the islands. I found it all fascinating. The ride home is a bit longer ( 2 1/2ish hours but Derek put on a movie which made the time go by fast). We also stopped on the way home and were able to do some Star gazing. Throughout the day Derek provided water and drinks and snacks so we had everything we needed at all times. Overall it was the best tour we've ever been on. Highly recommend and well worth the price! Derek was the best!

Awesome experience, must do.
Reviewed by: Kecia, 2022/08/15Overall i would say it's a must-do on the big island.
The crew was fun and helpful.
That particular night was somewhat cold and light on mantas but you get what you get. Crew doesn't control the animals.
Aloha! Thank you for joining our manta ray snorkel and for leaving such a positive review. We hope to welcome you back onboard in the future! Mahalo

Sea Quest Kealakekua Bay Snorkel Tour & Rafting Sea Cave Expedition
Amazing experience
Reviewed by: Laurie H, 2022/08/15I went on the deluxe snorkeling trip with my husband and five of my young adult children. We all loved it! Captain Steve did a fantastic job showing us sea caves and other interesting sites. We ended up in the midst of a pod of dolphins and saw some pilot whales. For all of us it was our first time snorkeling and Captain Steve and his crew made our first experience incredible. They even helped my son who can’t swim get comfortable with snorkeling using a life vest and noodle so by the second snorkeling stop he was a pro. We saw so many fish, eels, and a few sea turtles. I truly can’t say enough good things about the crew and the whole experience. One of the best of my life! I will definitely return!

Mauna Kea Summit Sunset & Stargazing Tour with Meal, Transportation & Guide
Enchanting Evening!!
Reviewed by: Neena Samant , 2022/08/13What an evening!
The whole experience from booking to drop off at was seamless. The guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic to share his knowledge. He also gave an idea of the Big Island’s topography.
The main attraction is worth the money and the time you will spend. We went in a clear day and the sunset was spectacular. The guide gave a fantastic guided tour of the telescopes, the sky, the stars and the constellations.
He patiently took pictures of all the tourists and I’m immediately airdropped them.
In all a must do trip. Big shout out to the guide.

Big Island Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour Adventure on a Hawaiian Sailing Canoe
Manta Ray Trip
Reviewed by: Paul, 2022/08/11Our canoe boat trip was great. We loved the smaller boat experience - only about 12 of us - vs. the big catamarans. The captain and crew of two were friendly and fun. In the water we saw lots of Manta Rays. Our young lady crew member filled us in on lots of info about manta rays while in the water. My son took lots of GoPro videos and images. One hour was just right, since the trip out to the viewing spot only took a few minutes.
