Quite the unique trip with such a tasteful guide, Michael. He was quite knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor that left the small bus of people laughing out loud. By the end of the tour, we all felt the meaning of “Ohana”. Food was great, we got to eat in the warmth of our special van. Be prepared, it gets cold up there. Dress warm- recommend boots, parkas, long underwear, and a hat. The stargazing was memorable and left a lasting memory that we will not forget! Please book this trip with Michael, for the time of your life!!!!

Excellent crew, all were very attentive, friendly and accomodating. I loved the easy dockside boarding. Nice, clean boat. The captain spotted a whale and stayed in place for all to see (it was a week before the beginning of whale season). Plenty of food and drinks for all.

It would be helpful to include temperatures for layer planning at the summit. Otherwise Michael was super knowledgeable and the hot chocolate at the summit was a nice touch!

Nick and crew were friendly and fun, the music was great, and the snacks and drinks hit the spot! Our party of 12 had a great time! Highly recommend

We had a great time watching the sun go down on the water. Great group of guys running this. I highly recommend.
