Dream come true. - Shanti and Brooke were amazing tour guides! They made our experience unforgettable. We had a beautiful swim with dolphins, actually, we saw 2 different species of them. We didn't swim with the Spinner dolphins, but we did get within a safe distance on the boat. I got some beautiful photos of them in the ocean. We told them about our son's passing and his love for Sea Turtles. They made sure our experience with the turtles was perfect. We can't recommend this tour enough. 💜

Must do Oahu Dolphin Adventure - I can't recommend these guy more, what a fantastic experience for my wife and I, Shanti and Brooke were amazing and provide an intimate, informatative fun and safe swim. The small group means more time in the water watching the dolphins, we will return to do it again with our kids!!

Top Priority Activity - This was the most magical, once in a lifetime experience. If you’re trying to figure out your activities on the island, I’d recommend this as the top priority. Captain Shanti and Kristin were the absolute best. They were informative, knew exactly where to find the dolphin pods, turtles, and octopus (they lead the charge for the other boats), and also made the trip fun, comfortable, and safe.

Fantastic Experience - This was an incredible experience! It was just my family of four and one other couple on the boat. There was plenty of room for all of us. We saw lots of spinner dolphins "sleeping" right as we left the marina and then the captain took us out into the open sea. Once he spotted a pod of dolphins, we got in the water and were able to see the dolphins swimming around and underneath us. After doing that three times, we went to another spot where there were sea turtles swimming below us. This was absolutely the highlight of our visit to Oahu. Book this tour instead of the large group tours. You won't be disappointed!

Best experience of the whole Hawaii trip - Captain Shanti and Brooke made absolutely sure we got the best experience with the dolphins and the turtles, and were so very accommodating. It was awesome being in a smaller group and they were able to answer any questions we had about the wildlife and area. 1000/10 rating, would go with them the next time we ever come to Hawaii!

Amazing experience - Had a spectacular tour with multiple opportunities to swim with pilot whales (the 2nd largest species of dolphins). As a local, I didn't want to get lost in a herd of visitors; our group was small enough to allow for an up close and serene experience. I would highly recommend.

Koa and Stef are the... - Koa and Stef are the best. Great guides with amazing energy. Must do when you are in Oahu (and the smaller semi-private tour is worth it)! Truly a lifelong memory.
