Lowkey Epic Tour!

What a fantastic experience! Of course the boat is lovely and luxurious, however the crew was exceptional. I felt completely safe and taken care of and they exuded warmth, professionalism, competence, and humor. The food was great as well from the continental breakfast to the BBQ lunch. We had ample time at both snorkeling location and I enjoyed the laid back pace. The gear was great and I loved the offer of floatation if you wanted. Wet suit tops were also offered for $10. The cocktails were amazing too with lots of fresh purées and mint. Things that you would expect at a restaurant not on a boat. Anyone who books this tour will be stoked!! 100% recommend!

Amazing experience and crew

The yacht was pristine and luxurious as advertised, the crew was top notch, food was delicious and the experience truly unforgettable. Do yourself a favor and book with those group. So grateful to have such an amazing experience and memories made as a family. Our 8 and 10 year old are already asking to come back!

The best day in Maui

Our BEST day in Maui. Every detail was thought of. From the signature cocktails, the delicious food…and OMG the staff. Captain Justin, Sienna (and her macadamia nut cookies), Anna, and Keirstin…professional, patient (I’m a terrible swimmer), and passionate about creating an experience for everyone on board. I don’t think I’ll ever forget this day.

Best experience ever!!

The crew was the best crew I’ve ever experienced on an excursion. Everyone was so helpful and made it their priority that every single person had the most comfortable, best experience snorkeling! Everything single part of the tour was great. For my first time in Hawaii and on a snorkeling tour, they knocked it OUT OF THE PARK! Forever going to recommend this 10/10 experience and tour! Thank you so much to the best crew!!

The best first day of Maui!

Just wow! From start to finish this yacht and crew were fabulous! Captain Kadyn, and crew Sienna, Anna, and Kjiersti were amazing. From the start they made sure that we were all comfortable, offering remedies such as sea sickness bands to ginger. Everyone was knowledgeable and so helpful. The snorkeling was fabulous and the food was fresh and delicious! The only way to go! Thanks crew and Mahalo!

Amazing snorkel experience!

Top notch experience!

This was the very best organized tour ever. Kaden, Carly, Sienna, and Jim made every guest feel like they were the only ones on the tour. The group was a perfect size. Not crowded. Super clean vessel, terrific drinks and lunch. It was way more than we expected. They were great in talking to us about where we were going, some of the history of the area. They knew where to take us so we saw the most sea life.
We highly recommend this wonderful trip!

Fantastic day snorkeling

My husband and I had an amazing day on the water with the Pride of Maui crew. Captain Justin, Diego, Ana, Emily, and Savannah made us feel like guests of honor! Not only did we get to see some incredible views at Molokini, we also got to swim with the turtles at Turtle Town. What a perfect day to spend on our honeymoon!

Exceeded High Expectations

My wife and I booked our excursion weeks ago. Looking at this mornings forecast we were hesitant to go. We are so glad we elected to go! What an amazing day and all thanks to Captain Kadyn and his crew! All of them were welcoming, friendly, and professional. They had as much enthusiasm for the excursion as we did and you could tell they wanted all of the guests to have a fantastic time. The gear, food, and experience were well worth the money. Topping it off with getting to see a momma whale and her new calf doing breaches and tail slaps was just icing on the cake. Hard to explain how clear the water is at Molokini, but it is blue and crystal clear. Would I book this excursion again? In a heartbeat. Mahalo!

Unforgettable Dream Wedding

The boat was the perfect size for my 50 person wedding!!! Phillip and Rachelle blew me out of the water with my florals and decorations which was a girls dream. The crew/staff embodied Hawaiian hospitality at every turn from interacting with the bride/groom and even our guests. They were ranting and raving about how nice the crew was. The captain was so accommodating ensuring we were safe and comfortable checking in to make our day unforgettable. We even were able to capture the beautiful whales celebrating our nuptials with us; breathtaking. It truly was the perfect wedding. The guests loved the food and the portions were large! It was the wedding of a lifetime that we or our guests will never forget! And a very affordable choice!
