Was billed twice for the tour and was not given a refund by Viator. Never trust this company. Customer support was rude and spoke broken english. A good tour but terrible service by Viator.

It does not get any better: great boat, great crew, great drinks and lots of whales due to the crew’s diligence. The west coast and Waianae Mountains are beautiful!!

A lovely cruise with a small group of people. Everyone had a beautiful view, and could spot the whales. Staff was excellent, two drinks complimentary.

Great experience for our family of 6 adults, ages 25 to 80. Highlight was seeing a momma whale with her baby. Crew was professional and very safe. Well worth the price of tickets. Would definitely use this company again. Be prepared to remove your shoes before getting on board the boat. Also there is not a sign for the tour company at the marina, just look for the large catamaran.

Crew was nice and safe. It was a beautiful day. I expected to see a lot of whales. We saw a few mostly from 1000 yds away. Kinda underwhelming. They served drinks even though drinks were not supposed to be a part of the journey. They also stayed out longer in order to fish which cut into our evening.

An excellent experience. The crew was great; friendly, helpful and informative. Saw several whales. The catamaran was large, with space inside and on the front decking. Don’t the put off by the appearance of the marina parking lot. It’s a bit rough around the edges. The cruise was professional and well done.

I’m local so kinda snobby when it comes to choosing a touristy excursion. But as a local, this was the perfect choice for us! I had friends visiting from the mainland so we made the trek from Kailua to the west side… and we had so much fun! We had some awesome wildlife sightings, including a brand new baby humpback with his mom, and a rare sighting of rough tooth dolphins - plus a couple of juvenile sea turtles. Captain Nick along with his crew of Caden and Quin took great care of us and were full of knowledge! Highly recommend this catamaran on the west side!!

Captain Nick, Quinn and Caden were great. We didn’t see whales yesterday and we received vouchers to book it again. Today we saw couple of whales, considering early season it was worth it. Drinks are good and boat is clean.
