    John was our fantastic guide. As a family, we have snorkeled in many tropical places, but this was the best time we have ever had. I love sea turtles and I was surrounded by these lovely creatures within feet. John is so knowledgeable and passionate about the protection of ocean life. His passion was contagious. He knew exactly what to look for and where to go. We saw whales, manta rays, turtles, and fish we only have seen in an aquarium. He taught us techniques with our snorkeling equipment that we had never been shown before, which helped us tremendously. He helped us create lifelong family memories and took some fantastic photos. Book this tour, and do not hesitate; it is worth every penny and then some.

    Great, fun kayaking adventure. Andres is knowledgeable and very safety conscious. He knows the area and provides personal attention to everyone in the SMALL group tour. A great way to start the morning in Maui. While the whales didn't cooperate, we can somewhere around 10 turtles during our snorkeling. Don't worry about your ability level or lack of kayaking, Andres will make sure you have the training to have a wonderful trip. Best recommendation I can give is that I WILL go again.

    John, our guide, was amazing. Excellent kayak and snorkeling instruction. Very knowledgeable about the area. I recommend purchasing pictures from John. Very professional pics and videos dropped to your phone right after the excursion. Only $60 for 200 pics and videos of the most amazing turtles and wild life on the reefs. Lots of family pics. So much fun!!!

    Andres is an incredibly knowledgeable and patient guide. My 65 year old mother came with us and he was able to help her get out and kayak and snorkel in the open sea when she was worried she was unable. He took us out to see whales and found a great snorkel spot to hang with some turtles. Highly recommend if you want an adventure out in nature on your trip to Maui!

    We had a great time with John. He made it easy and fun to kayak and snokle- from his explanations to his local knowledge. We were lucky enough to see turtles, two octopi and many dolphins! He said all of that was unusual but I suspect he knows how to create great experiences no matter what!

    John Shappell is an amazing and fun kayak/snorkel guide in every way. Super knowledgeable about the water and sea life…and passionate about sharing what he knows. John took amazing photos and was great at explaining the how-to’s of kayaking and snorkeling. He definitely knew the best spots to observe the turtles etc. Best Maui experience!

    John Shappell was amazing from hello to goodbye. He was thorough and inviting. We had a great time, even got a hold a wild octopus he caught very carefully, it was something I never imaginedhaving the chance to do. So many turtles! I know that can be hit or Miss but he had a game plan and delivered. I can’t imagine doing a whale kayak with him but hopefully we’ll find out. He also knew when it was time to head in at just the right time as the waves really developed into white caps, 10 our of 10, would highly recommend and definitely making sure we contact John Shappell next time we’re out. Thanks John! Oh and he took great pictures, definitely opt in for the picture package, we have wonderful pictures and didn’t have to worry about taking a single shot! See you again! Jeff and Amber

    It was really great tour with Andres for us. We swam with sea turtles and it became our best memory in Maui as a honeymoon. Andres was super friendly and taught us how to do kayaking and took many photos during entire tour. I really recommend this tour and especially thanks to Andres
