I’ll start by saying the staff were nothing short of perfect tour guides - helpful, lovely and good fun. Captain was friendly and approachable - overall lovely staff. The tour itself is the issue.. we spent 1.5 hours in the bus on the way to the marina due to going back and forth picking up more people. Then an hour on the boat to destination. We spent atleast 20mins sat listening to a safety briefing. Literally hopped in the water with our kids and they yell out “final 15mins” we were sooo confused - ALL that travel for a max 45 mins in the water snorkelling and getting a chance to use the slide? Then 1 hour back on the boat 1 hour back in the bus. Overall 4.5 hour of travel 1 hour of enjoyment. Lost a whole day in hawaii.. we were disappointed and wished we never booked. I’m sorry this is the reality of what we thought of the tour but the travel time severely outweighs how worth it was. Also, dolphins are in the far distance and saw 1 turtle off the boat. Not what I expected.

Aloha, Thank you for your kind acknowledgement of our crew and captains. We are very sorry that you did not enjoy the tour but we appreciate you sharing your concerns. We recognize that the travel time to and from the harbor is long. Unfortunately, the west side is the only place dolphin tours are run consistently, so we do our best to make it manageable with complimentary transportation. We will take note of possibly extending our snorkel time. We currently have 1 hour allocated to snorkeling and the remaining 2 hours saved for watching the dolphins, sightseeing the coast, hula dancing, tattoos, searching for wildlife, and enjoying lunch. If there was any miscommunication in the tour itinerary please let us know and we will adjust right away. In order to respect the wildlife, we let the dolphins approach us which can sometimes result in a further viewing of them. The same goes for the turtles who join us when they feel comfortable. Thank you again, for sharing your concerns so that we can learn and grow. We are happy you enjoyed the crew and hope that you enjoyed the rest of your trip to Oahu. Mahalo

The staff was excellent! We loved Rebecca and Jeremy! The lunch needs improvement maybe just a sandwich and chips would be better
