Top Hawaii Outdoor Activities - page 66

The plane had room for six, but because I came solo, the pilot let me sit in the co-pilot's seat. It was easily the best seat on the plane. We had great weather. We had a few little bumps, but the pilot, Kekoa, was excellent in keeping us informed. His intimate knowledge of the land, his humor, and easygoing demeanor made the trip educational and fun at the same time. This was the highlight of my short trip to Kauai and now I feel like I have to go back!

This was a great activity - there are many companies offering this but this group is local and they know where to locate the mantas! My son and I felt in good hands, and it even seemed that folks who were less sure about being in the water at night were made comfortable by the crew. These creatures are an awesome sight - loved it!

We so enjoyed our tour! Our guide was top notch!!! There wasn't much silence during our tour which we loved & appreciated - our guide was so personable, friendly and professional - sharing Hawaiian history/culture, facts, personal family stories or just checking in on everyone to make sure we were surviving the curves. Each stop we were informed of how much time we had and the time allotted was perfect. We never felt like we wanted/needed more time and the longer stops never felt too long or that we were ready to move on to the next destination. The only negative we can say if that one main reason why we picked this specific tour/company is because they advertised stopping at a farm-to-table lunch offering personal fired pizza vs a deli sandwich like several other companies, but unfortunately the place updated their menu and was no longer serving the pizza. The food was still very good but made for a hard choice for our picky eater. We know that has nothing to do with the tour company though a heads up prior to our tour would've been good. It was definitely memorable time, and we understand fully why it's on the "must do" list when visiting Maui.
