From beginning to end the crew and Captain took great care of us! The easiness of getting on board and getting settled was great for my family of four (2 kids under 3). We were able to see multiple whales, even this late in the season. The captain gave us some good lessons and history on the whales as well we learned a lot! Would recommend this tour for sure and we enjoyed our experience!

We were aboard Quicksilver on April 7, 2024. We were warned by the captain that it was late in the season for whales, so we were extra excited when we did see whales! The Quicksilver crew were all friendly and attentive. The boat is clean and comfortable. We have no hesitation in recommending this excursion.

It was really amazing experience. Although we went there end of the season. Still we were able to see 6 whales. Fantastic breach. The one disadvantage which was there is that in the tour description it was written that they will be providing headphones to listen the whale sound. But it was not provided.

We were lucky to see the whales jump out the ocean couple times on each side. Great storytelling by the captain. It was such a beautiful day on the ocean.

It was so awesome. We got to see a mommy and baby whale. Captain kiwi was funny and very discriptive

This was a great choice for a whale watching tour in Maui. Even though it was late in the season for the whales, we were able to catch a mother, baby whale, and escort on our tour. We managed to get decent seats near the upper level of the bow, which made for a great view. The crew was very professional and accommodating.

We had a great time. We went close to the end of whale season. We were able to see a mother whale and her baby very close to leaving the harbor. We didn't have to go very far. The crew were very nice. This is a short trip. Would recommend this for young children. My husband enjoyed the $3 alcoholic drinks. Metered paid parking is available at the harbor.

We went at the end of the season and still saw the whales! It was an unforgettable experience and our guide was very knowledgeable.

This was an awesome experience! Even though it's the end of the whale migration, we saw a mother and her calf. We hung around them for about an hour and they stayed close to the surface the whole time. The weather was perfect... Not too hot and partially sunny skies. The description of this tour did say that they have an underwater microphone but they didn't. It would have been nice to hear the sounds they were making.

My family and I loved this tour. the weather was great that day and there was no big waves. When we got to the spot where the Whales are supposed to be, at first there was not any. So the Captain had to go back. Luckily I was still looking for some and I actually did. It was a mother Whale with its baby. We saw the water spout and go up in the water. The Crew was great and the service was as well. I do recommend this tour. Mahalo and Aloha.
