We had a wonderful time. Michael Perry was fabulous. He shared history and stories as we were driving to our destination. He was very thorough in explaining what to do for first-time kayakers and made sure that those of us who have kayaked were comfortable and had what we needed. The lunch was wonderful. It was the best snorkeling experience that we had in Kauai. We saw a variety of fish and a turtle. There were a few spots as we moved from the river to the bay that were challenging. I would highly recommend this trip to others. Thanks, Michael, you were a terrific guide.

This was cool! The river was beautiful but the ride a bit short. Just enough kayaking on the ocean to get a taste. A nice snorkel in Hanalei Bay and then ride the shuttle back. Those five hours passed in a flash. Really good, relaxed, informative guides. Worth it!

Aloha, Thanks for your nice and "mellow" review. Our Blue Lagoon paddle and snorkel, has become more popular as folks realize what a beautiful paddle it is with the panoramic back ground of Hanalei. Thanks again for taking the time.... Until our wakes cross. Stay active. Micco

This was a fun adventure led by excellent guides. "T" was one of them, but unfortunately I can't remember the name of the other. The paddling ended up being much more fun than the snorkeling. I wish we spent more time on the kayaks. The food and drinks were adequate, and equipment was solid. We very much enjoyed the ride to and from Hanalei, hearing the guides comments on various points of interest as well as the history of the area.
