LOVED our experience with John! My son and I went here as one of our adventures in Maui for his 13th birthday. The only thing that would’ve it made it more perfect was for more sun (in my opinion) but my son had a blast no matter what. Our guide/instructor was John who was not only incredibly thorough on safety but also has a crazy amount of knowledge on the Hawaiian islands, its history, its language and, of course, marine life! He jokes a lot with you and made my awkward/moody, just-turned-13 year old son feel confident and special. We learned a lot and would love to have this experience again with John but bring more family with us!

Loved our Kayak and snorkel with John at: Maui: Premium Turtle Town Kayak and Snorkel Tour @ Makena Landing Maui. AMAZING guide who obviously loves what he does and is passionate about it. We lucked out getting this dude great history about Hawaii and marine life. We saw many turtles, an eel, octopus, jellyfish and many cool fish. Will def be rebooking with this group when we are back whether for summer or winter with the humpback whales. Mahalo!

This trip was so cool, we are far from the fittest individuals but managed and felt supported and safe with our guide Jake. We had a leisurely kayak to our first location for snorkelling, during which Jake told us about the sea life and conservation efforts being made on the islands. Once we were at the spot, Jake gave us safety information and off we went, he made sure we were all able to see amazing sea life that was in the area, including multiple turtles, fish, sea urchins and others. Jake was so knowledgeable, fun and genuinely seemed to love his job. We would highly recommend this tour.
