Great experience but flawed guide.
Edward_O
, Aug 2022
The experience was fantastic. The reef and fish were very beautiful but the people guiding the tour were very unprepared for any emergency. The boat was very small and neither of them were dressed to save a person in trouble. There was also no formal instruction of what was expected for the tourists as far as swimming and equipment use. We also couldn't really hear him as he was presenting because he would not face us.
Trip to the reefs on a speedboat

We were thirteen on the speed boat. With a nice weather and not too much wind, we went to the reefs passing along thé western coast of Hawaii to the reefs if Captain Cook. We could snorkel fourty five minutes where the fish were abondant and beautiful and take a snack on board. The Captain was very attentive to our comfort, we could exchange about the Island and get some stop bys with explanation. We only have a slight regret, not to have been able to see turtles nor Dolphins which my children were so much longing to see before going back home... I would recommend the tour it was fun

Captain was sooo cool guy!! He was funny during whole trip. We saw dolphins and when we got to the captain cook lagoon we saw the most beautiful coral reef on whole Hawaii. After snorkeling the captain started to play cool songs and really nice woman prepared for us food (croisants and so sweeeeet pineapple) we also could jump into the ocean from first floor of boat. During whole trip we could come to one young guy which was oceanologist (so smart, nice, funny guy with muscles) to ask him about anything. The trip was really wonderfull.
Would go back, awsome time!!!

Delayed and shortened tour

If you are looking for a snorkel tour with less unpleasant surprises, you shall look for other tours. Our tour started almost 1 hour late, and we were asked to reschedule on the spot. Finally the speed boat left the harbor after we insisted, then we were taken to a random spot to do some snorkeling and came back with only 2 hours tour instead of 3, forget about wild life because there is none, through I know it’s not guaranteed. At the end, you will still be asked to tip and not to write about the terrible experience, what?!

Ryan and Raj were great! They made this experience worth every penny. We saw a pod of dolphins on our way to Captain Cook and Ryan made sure to point them out and educate us on them. The boat ride was incredible! The snorkeling was something I will never forget. We were given plenty of freedom to swim and explore on our own. Fresh pineapple was provided after snorkeling and we had an enjoyable and music filled ride back.
I would highly recommend this expiration or any trip with Ryan and Raj.
Overcrowding, little fish.

Beware - LIAR and NOT RELIABLE
Frances_T

Chase called us to the morning of our tour to let us know we might not go out that day due to coast guard inspections. He said he would let me know but I had to call him back to reschedule to another day.
The next day comes and he calls me again to tell me there are inspections once again. He claims it might be done in time. He leaves us hanging until the tour time then I have to call him to get my money back.
I scramble to book another tour that day for my family so we wouldn’t miss out on the experience. We find out that his boat is condemned by the coast guard. He has to rent or borrow a boat for his tours. If he doesn’t have enough people scheduled to make the trip “worth it” for him, he just makes an excuse to cancel on you.
Beware, he is just a scammer. A lot of these positive reviews aren’t even for his company. His company name is similar to an old reputable tour,

Quite an adventure in Hawaii

I recommend taking this tour with Kona Snorkeling Tours. My 2 adult daughters and I were supported to take a tour on Wednesday 5/18/22, but an hour before our tour we received a phone call from Captain Chase that the Coast Guard was doing a boat inspection and our tour would be delayed. He was calling so that we could plan to come later, which I appreciated. I asked if we could reschedule for the following day and he allowed us to do so. The next day, he showed up on time and ready to go.
There was a party of 3 that were not there on time. I witnessed him call the people, attempt to figure out where they were, speak to their Uber driver and determine they were in the wrong place and not close. He was friendly and professional, but told them that he could not wait for them and hold up the rest of the party. As a patron who was waiting to go, I appreciated this. But he offered to rebook them another day, which in my opinion, he did not have to do. I was impressed.
It was a windy day and you are on a smaller speed boat so we felt the choppy water, which we thought was fun. It was a great boat ride to the bay where we snorkeled. We stopped periodically to see lava tubes, parrots, Pele, etc. We had plenty of time to snorkel by the Captain Cook monument and were able to see a lot of beautiful fish.
After we snorkeled (the equipment was good...mask, snorkel and fins), we were given bottles of water and fresh pineapple. They cut up 3 for our part of 11.
By the time we were to head back, the wind had picked up a lot. The swells were very big (I would guestimate about 10+ foot swells). Captain Chase made the wise decision not to go out further in the ocean to look for whales. Instead, we made our way back toward the harbor. However the current and wind were too strong. He decided to pull into a bay that was closer than the original harbor to dock and get us all on land safely. This was no easy task. He proved to be a knowledgeable sailor and despite not having a good place to dock, he made it happen.
I grew up around the water and I know that you have to respect the ocean. I felt that Captain Chase was in charge the whole time and made good decisions that kept us all safe. Several of us had to take Uber back to the harbor we started from and he told us all to send him the receipt and he would reimburse us for the cost.
We were able to see 2 pods of dolphins which was great. I definitely recommend this company and would go out with him again.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
