First of all, Griff was awesome! My partner and I were the only two booked for the day, and so we had our own personal guide the whole time. Griff was knowledgeable about Hawaii's history and full of passion for this wonderful place. Our journey began with kayaking. About 5 minutes in, we saw an 8-foot Manta Ray breach the water just 25 yards from the kayak! It was spectacular. Then, we found a pod of dolphins and kayaked with them for about 40 minutes - they were swimming under the kayak and right next to us! Last, we snorkeled and saw many sea turtles as well as some tropical fish. On the way back to shore, Griff scored us a bonus treat (Mahalo, Griff!). The overall experience was outstanding!! I would definitely recommend this company and the Deluxe Makena Turtle Snorkel Tour (the tour we took) - overwhelmingly beautiful and spiritual.
