Big Island: Mauna Kea Summit Tour with Free Night Star Photo

Jason_S, Jul 2026

I joined this tour as a solo traveler, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip. Wes took us to the summit of Mauna Kea to watch a breathtaking sunset. After sunset, we drove to another location for stargazing. Since the moon was so bright that night, we also had the chance to observe it through a telescope, which was an amazing experience. Wes explained the constellations in a fun and easy-to-understand way, and he also took amazing photos for me. He was knowledgeable, professional, and made the whole experience unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour, especially for solo travelers. Thank you, Wes!

Manta Ray Night Snorkel Experience of a Lifetime

Amy_G, Jul 2026

Wow!!!

Dylan and Bailey were great guides. We felt safe the entire journey. Bailey was in the water with us and gave us great information about the manta rays and explained everything while we watched. It was one of the best experiences we have ever had- magical. The mantas were huge, graceful and incredible!

Kauai Deluxe Sightseeing Flight

Tim_G, Jul 2026

Spectacular views, but watch out for motion sickness!

The views are spectacular and well worth the trip! It’s better to eat something light before going because it can make you a little queasy but the pilot offers ginger chews and ginger ale to help. I sweat a lot from mild motion sickness so I would have dressed lightly if I ever did something similar again. Other than that, it was amazing!

KONA Manta Ray Night Snorkel - FREE re-ride if no Sightings

Kimberly_M, Jul 2026

Incredible! The manta...

Incredible! The manta rays got so close to us. I went with my 6 and 8 year old sons (they are comfortable swimmers and know how to snorkel), and they loved it. I like that this company has the smaller boat (only 11 people), and I think that led to us seeing more rays. This boat leaves from a dock super close to the rays so it was only a 5 minute boat ride. Our guides/crew Taco, Koa and Max were great!

A true once in a lifetime experience!

Both of our guides were amazing! John was great and our main guide. His knowledge made the experience great and the stargazing portion was unforgettable. Thank you to both of our amazing guides for making this experience warming and wonderful. We will remember this forever!

2-Hour Molokini Guaranteed Snorkel Trip from Maui

Sheryl_W, Jul 2026

Excellent snorkel trip

This was a great snorkel experience. Just 2 hours, 20 minute boatride out and back. With a little over an hour to snorkel. We were back for breakfast and able to enjoy the rest of our day doing other things. When vacations are just a few days, i hate taking up over a half day with one excursion. This is great if you want to squeeze in the snorkel experience without using up a lot of your time.

Maui: Two Hour Beginner Group Surf Lesson in Kihei

Melissa_T, Jun 2026

Made grandson’s day!

This was my grandson’s activity. He was so nervous to do this but after meeting Mike and the safety lesson, he was so excited. Mike aka Uncle Mike was incredible in his instruction and making the students comfortable. For a kid that didn’t want to do it at all bc he was so scared, he was wanting to go surfing every day after his lesson with Mike. The girls that do the check in and photography was awesome too. Over all a terrific experience. Would definitely recommend it.

Ann_T, Jun 2026

Wonderful small van tour for sun t Haleakala

Jeff and Justin were fantastic. We had great communication with the tour before about breakfast choices and where to drive to since we were not being picked up at our vrbo. Jeff was a great driver and kept us informed about our travel, what to expect at th site and information about the National Park and Maui. Sunrise was beautiful and the stop down added to feeling we saw this side of Haleakala. Our breakfast tasty and filling. Wonderful added memories to our Maui vacation.

Memory making with my grandson!

My grandson had never parasailed before even though I had. The whole experience was easy from start to finish. Everyone was very helpful with clear directions, skilled and patient staff, the boat was clean and well equipped too. This is a great activity to do with kids and family members! I highly recommend UFO Parasailing experience to anyone that wants to try this amazing and fun activity!
