From Pick up to Drop off the crew was amazing. Tyler was a ball of energy throughout the tour. Loved him - he had us smiling and laughing and really feeling the Aloha vibe with their music. Mike our boat captain was also very engaging - Truly the highlight of our trip. Got to see a family of spinner dolphins, a manta ray, an octopus (Thank You Morri) tons of beautiful fish, and of course sea turtles were so close!! Mahalo Guys - We will be back.

Aloha Karla! Thank you so much for sharing your 5-Star review. It is wonderful that you were able to see a manta ray and an octopus - what a rare treat! It's also amazing to hear that our crew had such a big impact on your experience. We will share this positive feedback with Tyler, Mike, Morri and the rest of the crew. Mahalo to you, also! Please do come back some day!

Pick up was punctual from a nearby hotel, the coach was new and well equipped, and the crew friendly and informative. We were almost first on so it was a long drive picking up and getting to the boat. The boat was clean and a perfect size for the group. Overall the crew were excellent and tried extremely hard to entertain and make us comfortable. All equipment was in good condition. The swim with the dolphins was good but fairly short, and the animals were deep below us. We then went a short way and snorkelled over a very basic area of reef where the fish were in short supply and no turtles in sight. The water was a reasonable temperature but I was glad I spent $10 on hiring a wet-suit. I don't recommend buying the photo or video packages as they were a big disappointment. They should include some good stock photos of dolphins/turtles/fish to supplement the day's photo shoot as our animals/fish were in short supply. I would recommend this tour for anyone who hasn't swum with dolphins before. But the snorkelling is nothing like it is at The Great Barrier reef!

Aloha, and thank you for your feedback. We are sorry you were not impressed with the viewing of the marine life on our tour. Unfortunately, nature is out of our control, and we cannot always guarantee close-up encounters. But we're happy to hear that you enjoyed the crew's entertainment! Since you enjoyed all of the aspects of the tour that are under are control, and since you do recommend Dolphins and You to guests who have not swum with dolphins, would you consider changing your review to 4 stars? We'd really appreciate it! Thank you so much again for sharing your thoughts. Mahalo!

My husband, 7yo daughter and I did the Dolphins & You trip on 3 June and it was the highlight of our 8 days in Hawaii. The crew were amazing - fun, high energy, professional and so talented. They set expectations clearlyabout the reality of working with animals in their natural habitat and did their absolute best to make sure everyone had the best day possible. Our daughter was a little nervous about jumping off the boat and being in the water and they were just amazing with her all day. Seeing the dolphins was fantastic and swimming with the turtles and fish was really special. When we got home to New Zealand and anyone asked her about how was Hawaii, this was all she talked about! Thank you for a wonderful and memorable day. You guys were awesome.
