NO SHOWED! Tour operator didn’t show and no answer at business phone. Take past reviews seriously as honest accounts. I have nothing more to say.

I stupidly booked this tour just looking at the overall score. If you read all the reviews, you will see that they have a habit of being no-shows. We waited over an hour for the tour operator to show up. They did not call or text to cancel and have not responded to my requests for an immediate refund. I have filed a complaint with the tour operator, Expedia, VRBO, and my bank. BBB will be next.

This was the best thing we did on the Big Island! We like to be active and learn about the places we are visiting, and the 5 hour Kayak + Snorkel with Aloha Kayak Co. ticked all those boxes. We were lucky to have owner Iwa as our guide. He knows so much about local history, and I enjoyed his anecdotes about growing up on the island. The water was a bit choppy, and landing the kayaks and even getting out of the water after snorkeling was not easy for us beginners. We felt taken care of by Iwa. He gave clear instructions and helped us navigate getting in and out of the water. I was impressed with the thoughtfulness at providing water and snacks before and after paddling, in addition to the lunch. I highly recommend kayaking and snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay with Iwa and Aloha Kayak Co.!
