Reviews of this Tour


Manta Ray Night Trip

We had a wonderful time on our night Manta Ray trip. The crew was very professional and knowledgeable. At the conclusion of the tour they did have some beverages and snacks available, which was a nice touch. I would highly recommend this tour. It was one of our favorite things from our Hawaii trip.

Five Stars

The experience is top notch: it's small and personal, with the friendliest tour guides, concerned with staying safe, and protecting the environment and the manta rays, in a wonderful setting. We went with my brother and neighbors and we all walked away saying "WOW, that's one of the coolest things we have done in our lives."
