This was the highlight of our fantastic trip to Hawaii. We read other reviews and selected C Big Island Tours based on the reviews, pricing, and availability. And are we glad we did. Our tour guides were friendly, helpful, interesting, and funny. They captivated us throughout our trip. And they knew how to attract the manta rays. We had 13 different manta rays, 8-10' wingspans, with up to 8 at any given time coming within 4 inches of us as they performed their beautiful, graceful dance right below us. There were several other tour boats out there together but we had the best show. One family had a Go Pro that they had to move out of the way the mantas were so close to us.

Buddha is truly the manta whisperer. We had 7 mantas rolling under us for most of the time. He and Chris couldn’t have been nicer. My wife was apprehensive about the whole experience, but their laid-back vibe and commitment to safety set her mind at ease. They helped her in the boat and in and out of the water and then out of the boat like it was just just no sweat. We had very limited experience with snorkeling. It was amazing.
