    My wife and I had a great experience snorkelling with Joe. He explained everything really well, he offered us lifejackets and showed us how to use the snorkel equipment, and we got to see several turtles and starfish, as well as other fish, and almost on octopus, but it buried itself in the sand. Joe took many pictures and we got them at the end. Joe was very fun and personable. We definitely recommend this tour and thought the price is very reasonable compared to other companies.

    Our tour guide was excellent. Friendly, knowledgeable and made us feel at ease from the moment we met him. Mahalo Payton!

    Beautiful sights and great guide.

    Knowledgeable tour guide. My husband and I had a wonderful time. I tend to get sea sick, and did so our guide was kind enough to drop me at my car after i gave snorkeling a try and continued the tour without me for my husband's sake. I would recommend to all my friends!

    Memorable Experience

    We are a family of four—two adults and two children, aged 10 and 15. Neither my wife nor I are swimmers, but Joe made us feel very comfortable and gave us the confidence we needed to try snorkeling for the first time. It was an amazing experience! We saw a few turtles, including one large, friendly turtle that swam right next to us. After snorkeling, we visited the lava fields and a small beach, where we watched a beautiful sunset. It was truly a memorable experience. Joe took several photos of us during the whole tour, which was a add on, but definitely worth it

    Great tour! Great job Joe!

    It is a wonderful, relaxing tour. No boat ride, no meet at 6:30am drill, great for family who are not very athletic. We are first timer. We saw fish, urchins, and 3 turtles! Joe is our tour guide. He is very friendly, very helpful. He made sure everyone in the group had fun. Thumbs up!

    Incredible Experience and Budget-friendly Tour

    Daniel_N, Dec 2025
    Easily the best tour we booked while in Maui and some of the best dollars I've ever spent. The staff were both very friendly and openly communicated with us to coordinate before the trip. This is a newer tour run by Zephyr, so it doesn't have that many reviews, but our tour guide (Joe) was awesome! He was friendly and casual while taking us through the lava fields of Makena and then taking us out to snorkel alongside sea turtles.
